This manual describes the installation and operation of the ADC In-Building Wireless Repeater.
The repeater is normally mounting inside and distributes the RF over coax to an indoor antenna
located in the desired coverage area.
ADMONISHMENTS
Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards to
persons or equipment. An admonishment identifies a possible hazard and then explains what
may happen if the hazard is not avoided. The admonishments — in the form of Dangers,
Warnings, and Cautions — must be followed at all times.
These warnings are flagged by use of the triangular alert icon (seen below), and are listed in
descending order of severity of injury or damage and likelihood of occurrence.
Danger: Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
ADCP-75-237 • Issue 1 • 8/2007 • Preface
Warnin g: Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that can cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Caution: Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will or can cause minor
personal injury or property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
List here all general admonishments which apply throughout procedures within the manual.
-
Warnin g: Wet conditions increase the potential for receiving an electrical shock when
installing or using electrically-powered equipment. To prevent electrical shock, never install or
use electrical equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm.
Danger: This equipment uses a Class 1 Laser according to FDA/CDRH rules. Laser radiation
can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do not
look directly into the optical transceiver of any digital unit or exposure to laser radiation may
result. An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers. A protective cap or hood
MUST be immediately placed over any radiating transceiver or optical fiber connector to avoid
the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure. This practice also prevents dirt
particles from entering the adapter or connector.
Caution: This system is a RF Transmitter and continuously emits RF energy. Maintain 3 foot
(91.4 cm) minimum clearance from the antenna while the system is operating. Wherever
possible, shut down the RAN before servicing the antenna.
Caution: Always allowsufficientfiberlengthtopermitroutingofpatchcordsandpigtails
without severe bends. Fiber optic patch cords or pigtails may be permanently damaged if bent
or curved to a radius of less than 2 inches (5.1 cm).
Caution: Exterior surfaces of the RAN may be hot. Use caution during servicing.
FCC Compliance Statement
The writer may pick from Class A or Class B (below) if either is applicable, or may omit this
statement entirely if not needed. The heading for Class A or Class B may also be deleted. Fill
the product name in to replace the X at the beginning of the text.
Class A
X has been certified to comply with the requirements for class A computing devices per part 15
of the FCC regulations.
Class B
Warnin g: This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to radio
communications. It has been tested and found to comply with limits for a Class A digital device
pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable
protection against such interference when operated in a commercial environment. Operation of
this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference to TV and radio reception in
which case the user, at their own expense, will be required to take whatever measures may be
required to correct the interference.
This equipment does not exceed Class A limits for radio emission for digital apparatus, set out
in the radio interference regulation of the authorization methods of Industry Canada. Operation
in a residential area may cause unacceptable interference to TV and radio reception requiring
the owner or operator to take whatever steps are necessary to correct the interference.
This product conforms to all applicable standards of 21 CFR 1040.
X 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.
Warnin g: This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to radio
communications. It has been tested and found to comply with limits for a Class B digital device
pursuant to Subpart A of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable
protection against such interference when operated in a residential environment. If interference
to TV and radio reception does occur relocate or reorient the antenna of the affected radio or TV.
This equipment does not exceed Class B limits for radio emission for digital apparatus, set out
in the radio interference regulation of the authorization methods of Industry Canada.
This product conforms to all applicable standards of 21 CFR 1040.
Certification: UL/ETL/CSA/CE/NEBS Listed (delete inapplicable items, here and in TOC)
State condition of UL, ETL and/or CSA status. An example: X has been tested and found to
comply with the requirements of UL/CSA 60950.
XXX modules and chassis have been tested and found to comply with all applicable CE
Directives.
XXXX complies with the requirements of GR-63-CORE, Issue 1, October 1995 and GR-1089CORE, Issue 2, December 1997 with Revision 1, February 1999 as specified in SR-3580, Issue
1, 1995.

STANDARDS CERTIFICATION
Below is an alternative format for standards certification.
FCC: The Digivance NXD complies with the applicable sections of Title 47 CFR Part 15, 22,
24 and 90.
1989.
Operating at Rates Substantially in Excess of the Basic Rate.
The Digivance NXD Hub has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial envi
ronment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to
Changes and modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer or registrant of this
equipment can void your authority to operate this equipment under Federal Communications
Commissions rules.
In order to maintain compliance with FCC regulations, shielded cables must be used with this
equipment. Operation with non-approved equipment or unshielded cables is likely to result in
interference to radio & television reception.
ETL: This equipment complies with ANSI/UL 60950-1 Information Technology Equipment.
This equipment provides the degree of protection specified by IP24 as defined in IEC
Publication 529. Ethernet signals are not for outside plant use.
FDA/CDRH: This equipment uses a Class 1 LASER according to FDA/CDRH Rules. This
product conforms to all applicable standards of 21 CFR Part 1040.
IC: This equipment complies with the applicable sections of RSS-131. The term “IC:” before
the radio certification number only signifies that Industry Canada Technical Specifications
were met.
Wind Loading: The NXD RAN is able to withstand wind loads up to 150 mph.
