Two types of messages, identified below, appear in the InterReach Spectrum user documentation:

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

Preface

Electrical Code, and Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100 of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA C22.1.

UL: This equipment is UL Plenum rated under UL 2043.

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

an SRAU to the existing MRAU.

Figure 1 illustrates how RF and IF signals are sent between Spectrum units and

modules.

NOTE: This book refers to the Omni Antenna (4214-M727), which is the antenna that ADC recommends.

Other antennas may be used. For further information on the Omni Antenna, see “Appendix C: Omni

Antenna” on page 23.
