BelAir200 Installation Guide Figure 2: Contents of Box 2, BelAir200 Mounting Kit Site Survey Due to differences in component configurations, physical placement and environmental considerations, every application is unique. BelAir Networks recommends that a site survey be completed to best determine your coverage needs, installation limitations and optimal node configurations. Contact an authorized reseller to help you with this planning. Antenna Type and Placement Proper antenna placement, orientation and selection are critical factors in maximizing network performance. The antennas are typically placed between 5 m and 10 m above ground level; although alternate installations can be used. Additionally, the antennas should be located with clear lines of site to adjacent equipment in the system and free from obstruction by buildings, foliage and passing traffic. WARNING! Only antennas approved by BelAir Networks may be used in conjunction with the BelAir200. Contact BelAir Networks for an up-to-date list of available approved antennas. Use of any other antenna may exceed FCC or Industry February 19, 2004 Confidential Page 6 of 17 Document Number BDTK20001-A02 Standard

BelAir200 Installation Guide Mounting the BelAir200 Only qualified personnel should mount the Belair200. The BelAir200 is designed to be mounted on a surface or structure that is capable of supporting its weight (28 pounds). It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure the strength of the structure to be mounted to. The Belair200 is supplied with a standard mounting kit in Box 2 that accommodates pole or wall mounting in either an upright or upside-down orientation. If your mounting requires a custom solution, contact BelAir Networks. Installation Procedure 1. Remove the Belair200 from its packaging in Box 1. See Figure 3 Figure 3: BelAir200 in its Packaging February 19, 2004 Confidential Page 8 of 17 Document Number BDTK20001-A02 Standard

Figure 4: Removing Lower Covers from BelAir200 3. Familiarize yourself with the connector field. See Figure 5 on page 10, If you are making external backhaul antenna connections, this is a good time to decide which radio port to use. Be sure to record this information on the Configuration Worksheet. February 19, 2004 Confidential Page 9 of 17 Document Number BDTK20001-A02 Standard

Install the battery door and plug in the battery connector. Note: Do not force the battery connector; it is “keyed”. 5. Remove the mounting kit from Box 2 and familiarize yourself with the components. 6. If you are mounting to an aluminium, concrete or wood pole, skip to step 9. 7. Locate the drill template and using an appropriate ladder or elevating device, mark and drill the four mounting holes for the hardwall anchors. Follow the instructions found in the bag of anchors. Caution must be observed when working around high voltage lines. Be sure to “Check Overhead” before ascending pole or wall. Depending on your location, you may need the services of a Certified Contractor to obtain access to utility poles. February 19, 2004 Confidential Page 10 of 17 Document Number BDTK20001-A02 Standard
BelAir200 Installation Guide 8. Following the instructions included in the bag of anchors to mount the universal bracket. Skip to step 10. 9. Using the supplied jubilee clamps, securely fasten the mounting bracket to the utility pole. Note: Certain jurisdictions may require the use of a certified contractor for utility pole access. When mounting to wooden poles, you may be required to install a bolt through the pole. These are not supplied with the basic installation kit. Consult your reseller or local utility operator for specific requirements. 10. Once the bracket has been securely mounted in its desired location, you are ready to install the Belair200 Unit.

The manufacturer or its authorized resellers or distributors will assume no liability for any damage or violation of government regulations arising from failing to comply with these guidelines. Manufacturer’s FCC Conformity Statement This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. FCC Interference Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. February 19, 2004 Confidential Page 13 of 17 Document Number BDTK20001-A02 Standard
BelAir200 Installation Guide • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Manufacturer’s Industry Canada Conformity Statement This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 15 dBi. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication. This Class B Digital apparatus meets all the requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations. RF Exposure Statement This Wireless LAN radio device has been evaluated under FCC Bulletin OET 65C and Health Canada Safety Code 6 and found to be compliant to the requirements set forth in CFR 47 Sections 2.1091, 2.1093, and 15.247 (b) (4) addressing RF exposure from radio frequency devices. This device complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits for an uncontrolled environment. The radiated output power of this Wireless LAN device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. However, this device should still be installed and used in such a manner that the potential for human contact during normal operation is minimized. In order to comply with RF exposure limits established in the ANSI C95.1 standard, this equipment should be installed and operated at a minimum distance of 20 centimeters (8 inches) between the radiator and a human body.
