2 Safety Guidelines This chapter outlines safety guidelines when installing the WipLL system. Warning: The user and the installer should be aware that changes and modifications not expressly approved by Airspan Networks could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Warning: Never install equipment that is damaged. Warning: Only qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, and service the WipLL equipment. 2.1. Electrical Safety Guidelines Warning: Disconnect all power when installing. 2.1.1. Handling Electrostatic Devices Electrostatic devices are those devices that may be damaged by the inadvertent discharge of static electricity from a charged body. The risk of damage, due to electrostatic discharge (ESD) to a device, may cause the device to fail suddenly, or it may induce a partial defect within the device, which will cause subsequent premature failure. 02030311-07 Airspan Networks Inc. 2-1 Safety Guidelines Hardware Installation Guide Static electricity can result from operators walking on floors, moving around on chairs, from the movement of operator's clothing or even casual brushing against racks, benches or walls. Airspan recommends the following guidelines to be adopted to minimize the risk of component failure due to electrostatic discharge to the device: „ „ „ WipLL devices are provided typically in see-through anti-static bags. Wherever possible, checking and inspection of a unit should occur without removing it from the bag. All operators shall wear the approved conductive overall. Where operators come into direct contact with any piece of electronic hardware, operators must wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap. All straps and cords should be tested using a Wrist Strap Tester prior to use. The wrist strap cords shall have a 2 Meg Ohm resistor fitted at either end. Wrist straps should be worn in direct contact with bare skin and not over clothing. Warning: To prevent ESD damage to WipLL devices, always wear an ESD wris t strap when handling these devices or coming into contact with internal components. 2.1.2. Grounding Only certain WipLL devices require additional grounding. WipLL devices that do not require additional grounding have grounding at the main supply outlet. The following table lists the WipLL devices’ grounding requirements. Table 2-1: WipLL grounding requirements Site WipLL device Grounding BSR Through the mains (via BSDU) BSDU Additional grounding required (grounding lug at rear end of chassis) Base Station BSPS Additional grounding required (grounding lug at rear end of chassis) SPR Through the mains (via SDA) CPE IDR Through the mains 2-2 Airspan Networks Inc. 02030311-07 Hardware Installation Guide Safety Guidelines 2.1.3. Lightening Protection Warning: Never install the equipment during stormy weather and lightening. WipLL devices comply with the Surge Immunity standard: EN 61000-4-5. WipLL devices are protected from lightening surges as the outdoor devices (BSRs and SPRs) are encased in a plastic chassis. Therefore, if lightening strikes the device, an electrical circuit cannot be completed, and hence, no electrical surge can occur. In addition, WipLL outdoor and indoor (SDA) devices provide high-speed data line protection against direct and induced transient over-voltages surges on the cables. This capability is provided by the fact that all WipLL devices are designed with TVS (transient voltage suppressor) components that maintain potential differences. However, for geographical areas that have above normal lightening activity, Airspan can supply a surge protector composed of a 15-pin D-type adapter with a grounding wire. 02030311-07 Airspan Networks Inc. 2-3 Safety Guidelines Hardware Installation Guide 2.2. Installing WipLL Radios and Third-Party External Antennas Warning: For unlicensed bands, it is the responsibility of the person installing the WipLL system to ensure that when using the outdoor antenna kits in the United States (or where FCC rules apply), that only those antennas certified with the product are used. The use of any antenna other than those certified with the product is expressly forbidden in accordance with FCC rules CFR47 part 15.204. The installer should configure the output power level of antennas according to country regulations and per antenna type. Warning: Outdoor WipLL units and antennas should be installed ONLY by experienced installation professionals who are familiar with local building and safety codes and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate government regulatory authorities. Failure to do so may void Airspan’s WipLL product warranty and may expose the end user or the service provider to legal and financial liabilities. Airspan and its resellers or distributors are not liable fo r injury, damage or violation of regulations associated with the installation of outdoor units or antennas. Warning: When using external antennas, the external antennas must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Warnings: 1) The device cannot be sold retail, to the general public or by mail order. It must be sold to dealers. 2) Installation must be controlled. 3) Installation must be performed by licensed professionals. 4) Installation requires special training. 2-4 Airspan Networks Inc. 02030311-07 Hardware Installation Guide Safety Guidelines Warning: For unlicensed bands, in accordance with FCC regulations, ensure that the external antennas provide an EIRP of less than or equal to 36 dBm to prevent interference with other radios operating in the unlicensed band. The EIRP is defined by the following formula: Max. Power Output + Antenna Gain - Cable Loss ≤ 36 dBm (EIRP) Thus, ensure that cable loss is sufficiently high to achieve EIRP of 36 dBm or less. The table below lists examples of cable loss per cable for maximum antenna gains, based on the formula above. Note that the EIRP is either equal to or less than 36 dBm. Warning: The WipLL transceivers emit micr…
