Product Overview

2 Product Overview

The radio remotely extends the reach of the Radio System, and is designed
to be located near the antenna. The radio is part of a modular radio building
concept that enables a variety of installation alternatives that are also easy to
expand. Flexible mounting solutions are provided using rails, pole clamps,
and brackets. The small size of the radio together with the flexible mounting
solutions reduces the site volume. The lower weight also improves the handling
of the radio.

An optic cable connects the radio to the Radio System main unit or an expanded
macro Radio System. The radios can be connected in a star configuration or
in a cascade configuration with optical cable links. An overview of different
radio installations is shown in Figure 1.

Radio Description

3.2 Installation Recommendations

To achieve reliable operation, and maximum performance, an appropriate
installation location must be chosen.

3.2.1 Indoor Locations to Avoid

Although the unit is designed for outdoor use, it can also operate in an indoor
environment according to ETSI EN 300 019-1-3 class 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.6.
This does not cover installation with heat traps or installation in lofts, where
air ventilation does not exist. To ensure smooth performance of the product,
it is recommended to ensure that the planned installation site for the unit is
not a potential microclimate location. This typically occurs in places such as
unventilated lofts, sites with heat traps, or sites where the product is exposed to
direct sunlight through windows. Ensure proper ventilation and avoid installing
the equipment under glass covers or skylight windows.

3.2.2 Outdoor Locations to Avoid

Although Ericsson declares this product suitable for most outdoor environments,
this does not cover installations where the planned installation site for the unit
is a potential microclimate location. Typical examples for these microclimate
locations are sites where the products are not only exposed to the actual
temperature, but also additional temperature as heat coming from dark-colored
planes, for example, reflections from the floor or walls. The additional
temperature can generate heat traps with temperatures up to 10



C higher

than expected.

Avoid installing equipment in the following locations:

• Near the exhaust of building ventilation system.

• Near the exhaust of the chimney.

• Opposite large surfaces made of glass or new concrete.

3.2.3 Installations that Require Fan Unit

The Radio 2217 fan unit must be used in all installation scenarios where the
cables from the radio are not pointing directly downwards. The fan unit must
also be used in extreme conditions, such as installations with poor ventilation or
installations with heat traps.

3.2.4 Painting Limitations

Ericsson does not recommend painting the radio as it may affect radio
performance of the unit.

14

181/1551-LZA 701 6001-1-V1 Uen PC3 | 2016-01-13

PRELIMINARY

Technical Data

Ericsson will apply limitations to the warranty and service contract if the radio is
painted.

3.2.4.1 Technical Limitations

If the radio is painted, be aware of the technical limitations below:

• Sunlight on dark paint may increase the temperature of the radio causing

it to shut down.

• The plastic surfaces and the plastic covers are suited for painting with

normal commercially available one or two component paints.

• Never use metallic paint or paint containing metallic particles.

• Ensure that ventilation and drainage holes are free from paint.

• Ensure proper adhesion of the paint.

3.2.4.2 Commercial Limitations

If the radio is painted, the commercial limitations below apply:

• Failure modes directly related to overheating due to painting are not valid

for repair within the scope of the warranty or standard service contract.

• Product failures related to paint contamination of components of the unit are

not valid for repair within the scope of warranty or standard service contract.

• When a painted unit is repaired, it will be restored to the standard color

before being returned to the market. It is not possible to guarantee the
same unit being sent back to the same place. This is also valid for units
repaired under a service contract.

• For repairs within the warranty period or a standard service contract, the

customer will be charged the additional costs for replacing all painted parts
of the unit or the complete unit.

3.3 Space Requirements

The installation alternatives for the radio are shown in Figure 7 and listed in
