Table 2-2 is for reference only. If you install the AP on a tabletop,

none of the above tools is required.

Examining the Installation Site

Before installation, examine the installation site to make sure that the

AP will work in a good environment. You can examine the installation

site from the following two aspects.

Installation Site Selection

Keep the AP away from high temperature, dust, harmful gases,

inflammables, explosive substances, electromagnetic interference

sources (heavy-duty radars, radio stations, or electrical substations),

unstable voltage, heavy vibration, or loud noise. The installation site

should be dry, without any leakage, dripping or dew. The AP should

be at least 500 m (0.31 miles) away from the seaside and should not

face the direction of sea wind.

In engineering design, the site should be selected according to the

network planning and technical requirements of the communications

equipment, and the considerations such as climate, hydrology,

geology, earthquake, electric power, and transportation.

Temperature and Humidity Requirements

Table 2-3 lists the operating temperature and humidity requirements.

Table 2-3 Environment specifications

Specification Range

Operating temperature (indoor) 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F)

2-4

Specification Range

Storage temperature –40°C to +70°C (–40°F to

+158°F)

Relative humidity

(noncondensing) 10% to 95%

Power Supply

Check that the power supply of the installation site is stable. The

centralized AC power system consisting of the AC mains, UPS, and

user-supplied diesel generator should be:

z Easy to connect

z Safe to operate

z Flexible to dispatch

z Convenient to maintain

The low-voltage power supply should adopt the single-phase

three-wire system. Table 2-4 lists the nominal voltage and frequency

of the low-voltage AC power supply.

z If the voltage is unstable, a voltage regulator or stabilizer is

required.

z An uninterrupted power supply (UPS) is required for

uninterrupted communication.

Grounding and Lightning Protection

Table 2-5 Grounding and lightning protection requirements

Item Requirements

Grounding

resistance

z The grounding resistance is typically required to

be less than 5 ohms, and less than 10 ohms in an

area that has less than 20 thunderstorm days a

year. If an angle iron is to be buried into the earth

as the earthing conductor, the grounding

resistance is required to be less than 10 ohms. If

the installation site has a high earth resistance

rate, it is recommended to spray some salt water

or resistance-reducing agent on the earth around

the buried earthing conductor to reduce the

resistance rate of the earth.

z The top of the earthing conductor should be at

least 0.7 m (2.30 ft) away from the ground

surface. In cold areas, the earthing conductor

should be buried below the frozen soil layer.

2-6

Item Requirements

Protection

grounding

z If a grounding strip is available at the site, attach

the yellow-green PGND cable of the AP to the

grounding strip. The PGND cable must have a

cross-section area of at least 6 mm2 (0.01 in2)

and a length not longer than 3 m (9.84 ft).

z If no grounding strip is available at the site,

hammer a 0.5 m (1.64 ft) or longer angle iron or

steel tube into the earth. The angle iron should be

sized at least 50 × 50 × 5 mm (1.97 × 1.97 × 0.20

in.); the steel tube should have a wall thickness of

at least than 3.5 mm (0.18 in.) and be zinc-plated.

Weld the yellow-green grounding cable to the

angel iron or steel tube and treat the joint for

corrosion protection. With a cross-section area of

at least 6 mm2 (0.01 in2), the grounding cable

should be as short as possible. Do not coil the

cable.

z Make sure the lightning arresters of all devices

and the peering devices connected to these

devices are well grounded.

Grounding

lead

The grounding lead is a metal conductor connecting

the grounding strip to the grounding grid. The PGND

cable of the device should be attached to the

grounding strip. The grounding lead should not be

longer than 30 m (98.43 ft). A zinc-plated flat steel

with a cross-section area of 40 × 4 mm (1.57 × 0.16

in) or 50 × 5 mm (1.97 × 0.20 in) is recommended.

The grounding strip and the grounding lead should

be jointed using a 35 mm2 yellow-green PGND

cable or directly welded together with the joint

treated for corrosion protection.

AC power

grounding

z Make sure you use the power cable with a PE

terminal but not the cables with only L and N

wires.

z It is strictly prohibited to connect the N wire of the

power cable to the protection ground of any other

communications device, and the L and N wires

must be connected correctly.

2-7

Item Requirements

Lightning

rod

In a plain area, the protection angel of the lightning

rod should be less than 45 degrees. In a

mountainous area or lightning intensified area, the

protection angle should be less than 30 degrees.

The lightning protection ground (for example, the

ground of the lightning rod) and the protection

ground of the equipment room should be connected

to the same earthing conductor.

Feeder

z The antenna support is ready and in accordance

with the design requirement.

z A feeder lightning rod is already installed and

grounded according to the design requirement.

Outdoor

lightning

arresters

In case of outdoor installation, a power supply

lightning arrester, a feeder lightning arrester and a

network port lightning arrester are required. The

power supply lightning arrester and feeder lightning

arrester are located close to the AP while the

network port lightning arrester is installed close to

the peer device where the network cable goes out of

the room.

Network

cable

In case of outdoor installation, make sure to use a

shielded network cable and the interconnected

devices are well grounded.

After you have completed the preparations, you can start installing the

AP. For details, refer to 3 "Installing the AP" on page 3-1.
