GALAXY® II Gateway ReceiverMOUNTING THE GATEWAYIMPORTANTReceiver installation, mounting and disposal shall be in accordance with all local, state and federal regulations. When installing the receiver, customer is responsible for complying with local, state, and federal codes and guidelines, as well as applicable industry standards, such as ANSI/TIA/EIA 222 (structural standards for steel antenna towers and antenna supporting structures) and the National Electrical Code (NEC). Proper grounding is necessary, and in the case of a wooden pole, a dedicated copper ground wire should be used for lightning protection.Installation ConsiderationsOTE:NThe utility is responsible for properly positioning the gateway. For optimum reception, locate the network gateway receiver and antennas in line-of-sight view of the desired endpoints.To help maximize the performance of your GALAXY fixed network system, the following installation guidelines and recommendations should be considered when selecting mounting locations for network gateway receivers.The utility is responsible for properly positioning the network gateway receiver. For optimal reception and transmission, locate the network gateway transceiver and antennas in line-of-sight view of the desired endpoints.• Avoid installing the gateway next to or between objects such as tall buildings, towers, bridges, highway overpasses or signs that obstruct line of sight with the endpoints.• Avoid installing the gateway near RF transmitters or other sources of RF radiation including high-power in band and near-power sources such as 450…470 MHz SCADA transmitters and communications transmitters. Other potential sources of RF radiation include power line transformers, neon or fluorescent signs, and RADAR transmitters. If the gateway is to be located near other RF radiators, a minimum distance of 100 feet horizontal separation and 10 feet vertical separation must be maintained between the gateway and the source of RF radiation.• Avoid installing the gateway antennas inside metal enclosures or inside of a building as the antennas cannot communicate if surrounded by metal. • Mount the gateway as high above average terrain as possible and maintain a 360 degree view of the horizon.• Minimum standoff distance of 2 feet from any structure is required.• Position the gateway no closer than 25 feet from the nearest endpoint.Page 8 February 2014
