Fixing the mounting rack to the wall
1. To define clearances required around the BTS, cut the template out of the
packing cardboard by following the dotted line (see Figure 6).
2. Find a wall area which is large enough to cover all parts of the template and
place the cardboard template on the wall at the required height. Use a spirit
level to check that the template is in a straight position.
3. Mark the fixing points on the wall for the upper screw holes of the
mounting rack (R1 and R2, see Figure 5). For example, use a centre punch
through the template to mark the fixing points.
4. Drill holes R1 and R2 in the wall and clean them out. Insert anchor plugs
(or an appropriate counterpart, depending on the material) into the wall.
5. Position the mounting rack in the correct location on the wall and attach it
with screws through holes R1 and R2 (see Figure 7). Use a spirit level to
set the mounting rack straight (adjustment is possible due to the oval shape
of holes R1 and R2). Tighten the screws when the rack is level.
6. Drill screw holes for the lower anchor screws through the holes marked R3
and R4 in Figure 7. Insert the anchor plugs (or appropriate counterparts)
into the wall.
7. Position the rectangle shaped washer over screw holes R3 and R4 and
insert and tighten the screws.

8.4 Transmission unit
The cabling of the transmission unit is dependent on the transmission unit type.
This section instructs how to cable each transmission unit type.
It is a good procedure to label the TX and RX cables when you connect them to
the transmission unit. This makes any subsequent maintenance or upgrade
procedures easier.
8.4.1 FC E1/T1 transmission unit
Either separate 75 Ω RX and TX connectors (type BT-43), or one 120/100 Ω
TX/RX connector (type TQ) can be used.
The 75 Ω TX and RX connectors are connected to each other with a grounding
bridge (see Figure 20). If the grounding bridge is removed, the grounding of the
RX connector’s outer conduct changes from direct grounding to capacitive
grounding.
