Warning statements
2.1 FCC warning 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.
•
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. End users must follow the specific operating instructions for satisfying RF exposure
compliance. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
•
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate the equipment
2.2 IC warning statement
English
"Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a
type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so
chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary
for successful communication."
"This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). 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."
French
"Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut
fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour
l'émetteur par Industrie Canada.
Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs,
il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée
équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication
satisfaisante."
"Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio
exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne
doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage
radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement."

The antenna must be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 22cm is maintained
between the radiator (antenna) and all persons at all times.
5.2 Installation:

Incorrect installation
The antenna must be fixed at the end of the
tube

Date: 29 August 2014
The distance between antenna and tower must be in the range of 1.2 to 1.5m
The mounting support diameter must be in the range of 40 to 50mm and be hot deep galvanized
inside as well as outside
The antenna must be fixed by nuts and jam nuts
5.3 Recommendations:
•
•
Ensure the waterproofness (must be 100%) of the connector with a self-vulcanizing scotch-seal
(rubber mastic tape) , then with and finally with 2 zip tie-wraps
The tightening of RF connectors must be made manually.

•
•
•
Wrong installation
BS
The LNA connector must be directed downwards and
not upwards
The LNA must be fixed on a support tube with a diameter between 30 to 50 mm.
The LNA is fixed on the mounting support 1 m away from the antenna (right or left).
The RF connectors are type N female.
Installation recommendation
•
•
Ensure the waterproofness (must be 100%) of the connector with a self-vulcanizing scotch-seal
(rubber mastic tape) , then with and finally with 2 zip tie-wraps
The tightening of RF connectors must be made manually.
Waterproofness
Feeder cable, connectors, and overall cables, performance and lifetime strongly depend on waterproofness
level. The main purpose of ensuring waterproofness is to avoid the direct contact with water and thus
prevent oxidation of the connectors and also protect against steam, salt and dust,
•
The N connectors must be waterproofed self-vulcanizing scotch-seal (rubber mastic tape) , then
with and finally with 2 zip tie-wraps (at the top and at the bottom connector).

Earthing of coaxial cable and routing
•
Earthing
Earthing all components is extremely important. The reasons are:
- Protection against lightning strikes;
- Evacuation of static electricity in the cables and equipment.
The coaxial cable must be connected to ground of the tower by at least two earthing kits (in line with the
coaxial cable) at two locations on the tower at the top and bottom.

Feeders measurement
This measure aims at checking the cable characteristics at 916 MHz and the quality of the installation.
Type of measurements :
VSWR
Loss
Length
The main feeder measures must not exceed the following:
VSWR : < 1.2 or 21dB Return loss @ 916 MHz
Loss : < 6dB max @ 916 MHz
The coaxial jumper cable measures must not exceed the following:
VSWR : < 1.2 or 21dB Return loss @ 916 MHz
Loss : < 0.6dB max @ 916 MHz
Maximum cable length depending on cable type:
LMR 400
→ max 35m
1/2" LDF4-50 → max 80m
7/8" LDF5-50 → max 125m
The main cable measurement must be performed once it installed in the cable tray. The
connection to the LNA will be performed after the measurement.

11 Key risks
The list below gives the main hotspots during the antenna installation.
•
•
Connector installation procedure must be strictly followed in order to avoid specific problems
VSWR on cables and to maximize the efficiency and lifetime of connections.
Specific attention must also be paid to: jumper cable installation, earthing, ensure waterproofness
and labeling.

13 Electrical connection
The base station must be installed with a power point with the electrical protection according to the
standards.
In case the Base station is connected to mains by its electrical cable, the electrical plug must be easily
reachable in order to remove the cable.
In case the electrical plug is not easily reachable it is mandatory to have a circuit breaker system easily
accessible for any technician in order to switch off completely the installation.
14 Labeling
14.1 Installation:
•
•
•
•
Coaxial cables must be clearly marked closed to the base station with a label : SIGFOX – 868
Tables, electrical circuit breakers must be clearly marked with a label : SIGFOX
When connections are made and waterproofness has been made and checked, final labeling can be
implemented. All labels must be easily legible.
No hidden label in the cable tray.

15 Connectivity
15.1 Via ADSL (primary)
Please refer to your provider manual
The base station only accepts the dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) on the ETH interface
15.2 Via Satellite connection (primary)
Please refer to your provider manual
The base station only accepts the dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) on the ETH interface
15.3 Via the 3G network (secondary)
The 3G key is connected via an extension cable to the rear base station
It must be kept away from metallic masses or parts.
The indicator (DEL) on the 3G key will blink for a few minutes and then should stop. At this point color
must be blue or green. The blinking green or blue means: research network.
Blue → fixed connection to 3G networks (depends on the material)
Green → fixed connection to 2G networks (depends on the material)
16 Base station « switching on » procedure
How to switch the base station on:
Switching must occur only once all cables are connected to the TAP
See § 12Base Station Installation
ADSL connectivity checks :
DSL and internet lights must be green (depends on the material)
