WARNING: ONLY experienced installation professionals who are familiar with local building and safety codes

and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate government regulatory authorities

should install outdoor units. Failure to do so may void the product warranty and may expose the

end user or Service Provider to legal and financial liabilities. The manufacturer and its resellers or

distributors are not liable for injury, damage or regulation violations associated with the installation

of outdoor units or antennas.

Equipment Location Guidelines

Select the optimal locations for the equipment using the following guidelines:

1. The antenna should provide a direct, or near line of sight, with the Base Station antenna. The higher the
placement of the antenna, the better the achievable link quality. The location of the ODU should enable easy
access to the unit for installation and testing.

2. The PoE should be installed as close as possible to the location where the PoE-to-outdoor cable enters the
building. The location of the PoE should be selected taking into account its connection to a power outlet and
the end-user’s data equipment. (The length of the POE-to-ODU cable, together with the length of the cable
connecting the POE to the data equipment, should not exceed 100m).
