June 2003 ii FCC Requirements for Operation in the Unites States Radio Frequency Interference Warnings & Instructions This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following methods: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna • Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver • Connect the equipment into an electrical outlet on a circuit different from that which the radio receiver is connected • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help Modifications made to the product, unless expressly approved by Arcwave, Inc. could void the user’s right to operate the equipment. RF Exposure CAUTION: To ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, the antenna used for this device must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or radio transmitter.

The incoming ground & DC- cable is attached to the bottom of the ground block along with ground leads to the negative bus on the fuse block and the enclosure’s ground lug. The incoming DC+ cable is attached to the bottom of the DC+ bus on the fuse block. Cables to the individual Hub antennas (light gray) terminate on the right side of the fuse block. The electrolytic capacitor (2200 uF) across the power supply busses reduces transients when individual Hub power connectors are inserted or removed with power ON. It is normally not needed, but if it is used, be sure to observe the polarity. Space is provided at the top of the box for additional lightning protectors, which have not proven to be necessary at our test site in San Jose, CA. Lightning protectors are installed on a ground bus in the base station equipment room to protect the indoor equipment.

Refer to Figure 5-9. Arcwave recommends that the installer follow the general grounding practices employed in cellular and PCS base station sites. Arcwave recommends the following Lightning Protectors from PolyPhaser Corp. (www.polyphaser.com ). These PolyPhaser devices are designed to bolt directly to the ground bus. See diagram in Figure 5-9 for circled reference numbers. June 2003 Page 5-9 Table 5-1 – Lightning Protector Part Numbers Ref # Item Part # 1 75 ohm RG-6 transmit and receive cableIS-75F-C1 2 DC Power Supply IS-17VDC-30A-NG The ground bus, in turn, should be connected with an appropriate conductor (minimum #6 AWG) to the hub site ground that includes the power service and building common ground, per the NEC and local codes. Arcwave recommends the installer run a minimum #6 AWG conductor between the equipment room ground bus and a common ground point adjacent to the Hub Transceiver(s) unless the transceiver mounting system consists of a known low impedance ground (as a steel tower or monopole). In the case of a single sector Hub Transceiver installation, this point can be the antenna ground bolt or mounting bracket. In a multi sector installation including an outdoor junction box (OJB) this conductor can be connected to the ground bus in the OJB, which in turn, is connected to each transceiver and any nearby building or support structure ground. Normally the Wireless CMTS (W-CMTS), upconverter(s), DC power supply, 100baseT data switch, etc. are mounted in a 19-inch equipment rack in the base station equipment room. This rack should also be connected to the ground bus, preferably by a conductor #6 AWG or greater. When shielded cable is utilized to connect DC power between the hub equipment room and the hub antenna, ground the shield to the ground bus in the equipment room. Figures 5-10 and detail 5-11 show a ground bus installation with the specified PolyPhaser protector on each IF cable and on the antenna lead for a backhaul microwave. Note the ground strap to the right, which connects to the equipment rack.

In a one or two sector installation a small variable voltage linear DC power supply capable of supplying at least 1000 mA is employed. Arcwave has successfully tested the following power supply in a one or two sector configu…
