CAUTION! Caution text indicates operations or steps that could cause personal injury, induce a safety
problem in a managed device, destroy or corrupt information, or interrupt or stop services.
NOTE: Note text contains information about special circumstances.

Standards Certification

FCC: This equipment complies with the applicable sections of Title 47 CFR, Part 22 (800 MHz Cellular), Part 24 (1900 MHz - PCS), Part 90 (800/900 - SMR), and Part 27 (700 MHz, 2100 MHz - AWS).
IC: This equipment complies with the applicable sections of RSS-131 (800/900 – SMR), RSS-132 (800 - Cellular), and RSS-133 (1900 – PCS). The term “IC:” before the radio certification number only signifies that Industry Canada Technical Specifications were met.
Preface
The Manufacturer's rated output power of this equipment is for single carrier operation. For situations when multiple carrier signals are present, the rating would have to be reduced by 3.5 dB, especially where the output signal is re-radiated and can cause interference to adjacent band users. This power reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by an attenuator at the output of the device.
NOTE: The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has developed guidelines for evaluation of
human exposure to RF emissions. The guidelines incorporate limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) for power density of transmitter operating at frequencies between 300 kHz and 100 GHz. Limits have been set for portable, mobile, and fixed equipment. ADC products fall in the category of fixed equipment; products intended to be permanently secured and exposures are evaluated for distances greater than 20cm (7-7/8”). Portable devices fall into exposures of less than 20cm, where SAR evaluations are used.
Antenna gain is restricted to 1.5 W ERP (2.49 W EIRP) in order to satisfy RF exposure compliance requirements. If higher than 1.5 W ERP, routine MPE evaluation is needed. The antennas should be installed to provide at least 20cm from all persons to satisfy MPE requirements of FCC Part 2, 2.1091.
UL/CUL: This will be installed in a restricted access location. This equipment complies, per UL and CUL 50, Standard for Enclosures for Electrical Equipment.
UL/CUL: This equipment complies with UL and CUL 60950-1 Standard for Safety for Information Technology Equipment, including Electrical Business Equipment.
UL/CUL: All InterReach Spectrum RAUs are Plenum rated and suitable for use in environmental air space in accordance with Section 300-22(C) of the National

CAUTION! Modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
InterReach Spectrum supports up to eight frequency bands in a single system. Each antenna location supports those bands in modular, group pairings. Each location includes a Main Remote Access Unit (MRAU), which can power up to three additional Secondary Remote Access Units (SRAUs). An MRAU supports two frequency bands, and each SRAU can support up to two frequency bands, for a total of up to eight frequency bands. MRAUs and SRAUs are grouped logically, based on common service provider groupings and include, as an example:
85
70
80
19
To add more frequency bands, you connect
0/1900 0/700 MIMO 0/900 SMR 00/AWS.
an SRAU to the existing MRAU.
Figure 1 illustrates how RF and IF signals are sent between Spectrum units and
modules.

INSTALL THE RAUS AND ANTENNAS
Follow the steps in the order provided to install the RAUs and antennas.

General Safety Precautions

CAUTION! 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.
CAUTION! This system is a RF Transmitter and continuously emits RF energy. Maintain a minimum 8-inch
(20 cm) clearance from the antenna while the system is operating. Whenever possible, shut down the RAN before servicing the antenna.
NOTE: RAUs are suitable for use in environmental air space in accordance with Section 300-22(c) of the
National Electrical Code, and Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100 of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA C22.1.
CAUTION! Install RAUs in indoor locations only. Do not connect an antenna installed in an outdoor location
to a RAU, unless it is in an approved AOC weatherproof NEMA4 housing.
CAUTION! Attach all RAUs securely to a stationary object (that is, a wall, pole, or ceiling brackets). To mount
a RAU securely to a wall, ceiling bracket, or pole, use #6 diameter fasteners in the four slotted mounting holes.
CAUTION! Do the following to maintain proper ventilation:
Keep at least 76 mm (3-inch) clearance around the RAU.
Do not stack RAUs on top of each other.
Always mount the RAU with the solid face (containing the mounting holes) against the mounting surface.
NOTE: You can place the RAU, without its fastening hardware, on a flat surface, such as a shelf, desk,
cabinet, or any other horizontal surface that allows stable placement, with the mounting base facing down to the mounting surface.
CAUTION! If installing the RAU on a flat surface, the surface must be able to hold a minimum 7-pound load
securely.

instructions.
NOTE: It is common practice to install passive antennas below the ceiling. If you install a passive antenna
above the ceiling, when estimating the antenna coverage area, account for additional loss due to the ceiling material.
3 Connect a passive multi-band antenna to the N connector on each RAU using
coaxial cable with the least amount of loss possible. (See “Appendix C: Omni
Antenna” on page 23 for information on the Omni Antenna ports.)
CAUTION! Firmly hand-tighten the N connector. DO NOT over-tighten the connector.

Connect the IFEU to the MRAU

NOTE: The IFEU should be powered up before starting this procedure; see the InterReach Spectrum

Connect the MRAU to SRAUs

CAUTION! To prevent interference, do not install an 850/1900 MRAU antenna near an 800/900 SRAU. The 850
