Chapter 3 - Prepare for Installation • Allows access for normal maintenance Select a location that meets the following guidelines: • The radio signals to and from the Extender Bridge within the Fresnel zone will not be not obstructed. • Nearby structures do not block line-of-sight radio coverage. • Clear of thick trees or brush at installation and in the foreseeable future. Foliage in the line of sight to other devices can degrade radio performance. • An unobstructed view of the overhead sky for access to the strongest GPS signals. At startup, the Extender Bridge searches for a GPS signal. If it cannot detect a signal, it cannot complete startup. establish wireless connections with other SecureMesh WAN devices, or establish time synchronization. Grounding Requirements Identify the primary ground point for the Extender Bridge location. WARNING! A proper ground protects both the Extender Bridge and the equipment connected to it. Ground protection is essential if the Extender Bridge is installed on a tall structure or in an area where lightning occurs. The techniques described here are general guidelines and do not constitute a comprehensive guide covering all installation scenarios. For maximum protection, and if lightning is a threat in your area, consult a specialist in lightning and transient protection who is familiar with your operating environment. Grounding Guidelines To ensure optimal reliability, properly ground the metal base of the Extender Bridge. Use a 10 AWG or larger wire to connect it to the ground point on the structure. This ground point is especially important if the structure is non-conductive, such as wood or concrete.The three most common ground points include the following: • The primary ground point or down lead provided by the existing ground system at the site, such as a part of the tower structure (see Figure 2) or the AC electrical system for the building. • A copper-clad ground rod, 10 ft (3 m) or longer, driven into the earth. At a tower with multiple legs, there typically is one ground rod at each leg and a ground wire loop that connects the rods. • A cold-water pipe that is well-connected to earth. 12 SecureMesh Extender Bridge Installation Guide NOTICE: The contents of this document are proprietary and confidential and the property of Trilliant Holdings, Inc., its subsidiaries, affiliates, and/or licensors.
