Safety Warnings
The MSR4000 must be installed by trained professional installation technicians. All warnings below
must be read and understood before installation.
General Safety Warnings
You can be killed or injured if performing antenna installation near electrical power lines.
Carefully read and follow all instructions in this guide. Please be sure there are no high voltage
and electronic fields nearby.
Working Aloft Warning
When working on tower or roof, individuals must wear safety belts. Tools must be tied to
the individual using them. Workers below must wear safety helmets.
Lightning Activity Warning
MSR4000 Installation Guide
Make sure not to connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.
A surge protective device should be installed to prevent potential damage from very high surges,
for instance, the peak surges caused by lightning.
Explosive Device Proximity Warning
Do not operate wireless network devices close to explosive merchandise or in explosive
environments if devices are not certified for operation in such an environment, for example, in the
vicinity of a gas station.
Antenna Placement Warning
Do not install any antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light, or where the
antenna can come into contact with such circuits.
Antenna Selection Warning
Please use DC grounding antenna with lightning protection to prevent surge and static
electricity.
Grounding Warning
Please always remember to protect your MSR4000 system by installation of grounding
lines. The ground connection must be complete before connecting power to the MSR4000
enclosure. The requirement of grounding is to make sure the resistance must be less than 5 ohm
between the ground termination point to grounding tier.
Power Installation Warning
MSR4000 Installation Guide
The installation of the power switch must be performed by a trained professional technician.
The power switch is not supplied with the MSR4000. The power cord must be assembled by a
professional installer, and the final assembly must comply with related requirements.
Solar Irradiation and High Temperature Protection
Pay attention to level of sunlight, which can increase the working temperature of MSR4000
to higher than specifications allow.
A solar shield is provided in the Aruba standard package and should be installed to protect any
outdoor MSR4000. The Aruba Warrantee policy does not cover those outdoor products for which
Solar shields are not installed. Please contact Aruba technical support engineers for detailed
information.
RF Device Protection
Before powering up the MSR4000, the RF port must be connected to an antenna or a valid
load (not included in the standard accessories for MSR4000). Otherwise, the RF module may be
burned out. Aruba will not take any responsibility for such damage. For RF module with power
less than 100mW, in test environment, it is allowed worked without load but should be within 30
minutes.
Protection on unused RF module
The unused RF interface must be closed via configuration command and its protective cap must
be wrapped up by waterproof PVC tape to prevent from falling off. Otherwise, the RF module may
be damaged. Aruba will not take any responsibility for such damage.
FCC Certificate
MSR4000 Installation Guide
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the equipment.
REMINDER
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.
NOTICE
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.
—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.
Precautions
The radiated output power of this device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits based on
that human proximity to the antenna shall not be less than 34cm during normal operation.
IC notice
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so
chosen that the equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that permitted for
successful communication.

2 Installation Preparations
This chapter describes the preparations for MSR4000 installation, including preparation of installation
tools,selection of installation sites and etc.
2.1
Preparing Installation Tools
When installing MSR4000, you may need the following tools. You shall select the tools according to the
actual situation.
Table 2-1 Installation tools list
Type
Tools
Screwdriver, adjustable spanner, vice, safety belt, hard hat, power
board (220 VAC or as required by local regulation), POE power
General tools
injector, crimping pliers, electric soldering iron, welding wire, PVC
insulation tape, adhesive insulation tape, strap, insulation tools
2.2
Examining the Installation Site
1. The site should be located within at least a 60% range of the 1st fresnel zone without obstacles to
provide LOS transmission, increase coverage capacity, and minimize the number of necessary
sites.
2. If no LOS secured, area in NLOS area could be covered as well, but the distance of coverage and
area of coverage are decreased; more sites are needed to provide coverage for same area than in
the LOS scenario.
3. Interference must be considered in site selection. New site should avoid known interference, unless
the interference is controllable.
4. Keep the MSR4000 away from places that are susceptible to high temperature, dust, harmful gas,
inflammable, explosive, electromagnetic interference (high power radar, radio station and
transformer), unstable voltage, heavy vibration, or loud noise. In engineering design, the site
should be selected according to the network planning and technical requirements of
communications equipment, as well as the considerations such as climate, hydrology, geology,
earthquake, electric power, and transportation.

Installing MSR4000 on a wall
Step 1 Mark
1) Put the mounting bracket on the installation position against the wall.
2) Mark four expansion screw holes on the wall.
Figure 3-8 Positions of screw holes
Step 2 Drill holes
1) Use a percussion drill to drill four holes on the four markings. (Expansion screw size: M8 x 100mm)
Step 3 Install masonry anchors
1) Insert a masonry anchor into each drilled hole vertically.
2) Tap the flat end of the anchor with a rubber hammer until the anchor is flush with the wall surface.
Step 4 Fix the wall-mounting bracket
1) Align the four holes in the wall-mounting bracket with the anchors and insert four expansion screws
through the installation holes into the anchors.
2) Adjust the position of the wall-mounting bracket and tighten the expansion screws.
Step 5 Hang the MSR4000 on the bracket
1) Screw the two M4 x16 bolts into the holes on the back of the MSR4000.
2) Align the two M4 x16 bolts on the back of MSR4000 with the holes on the mounting bracket and hang

Grounding the MSR4000
The grounding must be completed before powering up the MSR4000.The residence of grounding wire
should be less than 5 ohm and the grounding cable’s cross-section area should be no less than 6 mm2.The
grounding hole is at the left side of the MSR4000.
Figure 3-11 Grounding the MSR4000
Step 1 Peel the cover of one end of the grounding cable (green or yellow and green grounding cable) and
place the bare grounding cable into the copper lug, and press firmly with the crimping pliers.
Step 2 Fasten the copper lug to the grounding hole on the MSR4000 with the M4 x12 bolt and externaltooth washer.
