Introduction

This document contains safety and installation instructions for the Accelleran
E1000 Series LTE Base Station (eNodeB), shown in Figure 1.

The E1000 series includes several different models, each designed for use on
a different frequency band or set of bands. For example, model E1010
operates on LTE band 42, E1011 operates on LTE band 43, E1012 operates
on LTE band 48. In the rest of this document, the name E10xx is used to mean
any model in the E1000 series.

The remainder of this document applies to all E1000 series models, except that
in the Technical Description section there is a sub-section for each individual
model giving its frequency bands and maximum transmit power.

Detailed guidance on configuring the E10xx and monitoring its status and
performance can be found in documentation available separately from
Accelleran.

Intended Use

The product is intended for use as a base station (eNodeB) in an LTE network.
It is designed to be installed outdoors but may also be installed indoors. It is not
to be sold to, installed by or operated by the general public.

Safety

General

The product must only be used for its intended purpose.
The product and antennas must be installed, serviced and replaced only by

trained and qualified personnel who are familiar with safe working practices,
local building and safety codes and, where applicable, are licensed by the
appropriate regulatory authorities.

The product must be securely fixed to a suitable structure such as a wall, a
building or a tower designed for the purpose. If a mounting pole is used, it must
be securely fixed to the building or tower before the product is fixed to it.

The product must be fixed in position using fixings that can safely bear the
weight of the product (including antennas if connected directly to the product).

The product must be installed in a position where there is minimal risk of a
person accidentally colliding with it or its antennas.

LTE antennas must be installed in a position such that the distance from them
to any person will always be at least 20 cm while the product is transmitting.

The product must be securely fixed in position before power is applied.
If installed outdoors, the product must be protected against lightning strike by

connecting it to earth using a suitable conductor.
Since E1012/CBRS is a Category A device the product can only be installed

outdoors below 6m height AGL or indoors.
The supplied Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) injector must be installed in an

indoor environment or in a weather-proof enclosure.

Federal Communication Commission Interference
Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following
measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to

which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this
equipment.

This device 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.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated
with minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator & your body.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.

kept 20 cm from nearby person in normal operation condition to meet
regulatory RF exposure requirement.

3. External antenna
Use only the antennas which have been approved by Gemtek, Accelleran. The

non-approved antenna(s) may produce unwanted spurious or excessive RF
transmitting power which may lead to the violation of FCC limit and is
prohibited.

4. Installation procedure
Please refer to guidelines below for the detail.

5. Warning
Please carefully select the installation position and make sure that the final

output power does not exceed the limit set force in relevant rules. The violation

of the rule could lead to serious federal penalty.
