 MSR4000 Installation Guide                                                                                           15  Table 2-1 Installation tools list Type Tools General tools Screwdriver, adjustable spanner, vice, safety belt, hard hat, power board (220 VAC or as required by local regulation), POE power injector, crimping pliers, electric soldering iron, welding wire, PVC insulation tape, adhesive insulation tape, strap, insulation tools  2.3  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.

This process prevents water from entering the AP or antennas through the connectors.  A good weatherproofing job consists of three wrappings: 1. electrical tape 2. butyl rubber 3. electrical tape The first wrapping of tape should be at least two layers, followed by a single wrap of butyl rubber, and four-layer wrap of electrical tape. This provides good protection from water, heat, and other potential hazards that could damage your AP or antennas.  Additionally, wrap your connections such that water is always directed down and away from connections.  3.1  Required Items and Tools  3/4” (19 mm) Vinyl Electrical Tape (waterproofing type)   Butyl Rubber Tape   Knife or Box Cutter  3.2  Types of Connections The following sections provide guidance on weatherproofing directly connected antennas (Figure 3-1) and cable connections (Figure 3-2). The same materials are needed for weatherproofing both types of connections but the procedure is slightly different. For weatherproofing directly connected antennas, see
 MSR4000 Installation Guide                                                                                           17  "Weatherproofing Directly Connected Antennas" section. For weatherproofing cable connections, see "Weatherproofing Cable Connections" section.  Figure 3-1 Directly connected antennas
 18                                                                                            MSR4000 Installation Guide   Figure 3-2 Cable connections  3.3  Important Points to Remember   Do not cover the weep holes on the antennas. Doing so can restrict the release of condensation from the antennas.   Proper weatherproofing is not a fast process. Set aside ample time to complete the steps outlined below.   When wrapping, make the each layer of tape as flat as possible. Wrinkles and folds in the tape create places for water and moisture to gather. 3.4  Weatherproofing Directly Connected Antennas First Wrapping of Tape 1.  Before wrapping the antennas, locate the weep holes (Figure 3-1). Weep holes allow condensation that has built up inside the antenna to escape. 2.  Prepare the antenna connector by cleaning and drying it. 3. Cut a 4” (100 mm) strip of electrical tape from the roll. Pre-cutting the tape into strips makes it easier to maneuver the tape around the antennas and other components of the AP’s case.
 MSR4000 Installation Guide                                                                                           19  4.  Beginning just below the weep holes, tightly wrap the connection with a layer of the 3/4” (19mm) electrical tape. Overlap the tape to a half-width. 5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the wrapping extends all the way to the AP’s case.  Figure 3-3 First Wrapping of Tape   Wrapping of Butyl Rubber 1. Cut a 3/4” (19 mm) strip of butyl rubber. 2.  Wrap the strip of rubber around the taped connector (Figure 3-4) 3.  Join the two ends by pushing them together until there is no longer a seam (Figure 3-5).
 20                                                                                            MSR4000 Installation Guide   Figure 3-4 Butyl rubber placement   Figure 3-5 Butyl rubber wrap  Second Wrapping of Tape 1. Cut a 4” (100 mm) strip of electrical tape from the roll. 2.  Where you begin wrapping depends on the orientation of the antenna. Water should flow in the opposite direction of the wrapping to prevent water from
 MSR4000 Installation Guide                                                                                           21  entering the connector between the layers of tape. Therefore, if the antenna is facing up, you should begin wrapping at the AP end of the connector. This will ensure that your fourth and final layer will be layered correctly. Conversely, if your antenna is facing down, you should begin wrapping on the antenna end of the connector. 3.  After completing the fourth layer of tape, check your work to ensure there are no places where water can collect. If there are, you must smooth out those areas with additional layers of tape or remove the weatherproofing and begin again. Figure 3-6 Completed wrapping (antenna on top of AP)   4.  Repeat this process for all connectors. 3.5  Weatherproofing Cable Connections First Wrapping of Tape 1.  Prepare the antenna connector by cleaning and drying it.

Pre-cutting the tape into strips makes it easier to maneuver the tape around the connectors and other components but is not required. 3.  Beginning at the top of the connector, tightly wrap the connection with a layer of the 3/4” (19mm) electrical tape. Overlap the tape to a half-width. 4. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the wrapping extends all the way to the cable’s insulation. Figure 3-7 First wrapping of tape   Wrapping of Butyl Rubber 1.  Cut a piece of butyl rubber large enough to wrap around the connector and extended past the first layer of tape. 2.  Wrap the strip of rubber around the taped connector (Figure 3-8) 3.  Join the two ends by pushing them together until there is no longer a seam (Figure 3-9).
