Safety Warnings

The MST200 must be installed by trained professional installation technicians. All warnings below must
be read and understood before installation.

General Safety Warnings

You can be killed or injured if performing an tenna installation near electrical power lines.
Carefully read and follow all instructions in this guide. Please be sure there are no high voltage and
electronic fields nearby.

Working Aloft Warning

When working on tower or roof, individuals must wear s afety belts. Tools must be tied to
the individual using them. Workers below must wear safety helmets.

Lightning Activity Warning

Make sure not to connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.
A surge protective device should be installed to prevent potential damage from very high surges, for

instance, the peak surges caused by lightning.

MST200 Installation Guide 2

Explosive Device Proximity Warning

Do not operate wireless network devices close to explosive merchandise or in explosive
environments, for example, in the vi cinity of a gas station.

Antenna Placement Warning

Do not install an y antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light, or where the
antenna can come into contact with such circuits.

Antenna Selection Warning

Please use DC grounding antenna with lightning protection to prevent surge and static

electricity.

Grounding Warning

Please always remember to protect your MST200 system by installation of gro unding lines.
The ground connection must be complete befo re connecting power to the MST200 enc losure. The
requirement of grounding is to make sure the resistance must be less than 5 ohm be tween the
ground termination point to grounding tier.

Power Installation Warning

The installation of the power switch must be performed by a trained professional technician.
The power switch is not supplied with the MST200. The power cord must be assembled by a

professional installer, and the final assembly must comply with related requirements.

Solar Irradiation and High Temperature Protection

Pay attention to level of sunlight, which can increase the working temperature of MST200 to
higher than specifications allow.

A solar shield is provided in the Aruba stand ard package and should be installed to protect any
outdoor MST200. The Aruba Warrantee polic y does not cover those outdoor products for which
Solar shields are not installed. Please contact Aruba technical support engineers for detailed
information.

RF Device Protection

Before powering up the MST200, the RF port must be connected to an antenna or a valid
load (not included in the standard accessorie s for MST200). Otherwise, the RF module may be
burned out. Aruba will not take any responsibility for such damage. For RF module with power less
than 100mW, in test environment, it is allowed worked without load but should be within 30 minutes.

Protection on unused RF module

The unused RF interface must be closed via configuration command and its protective cap must be
wrapped up by waterproof PVC tape to prevent from falling off. Otherwise, the RF module may be
damaged. Aruba will not take any responsibility for such damage.

FCC Certificate
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for co mpliance could void
the user's authority to operate the equipment.

REMINDER

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.

NOTICE

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 ac cordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning th e equipment off and on, the user is encourag ed to try
to correct the interference by one or more 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.

Precautions

The radiated output power of this device is below the FC C radio frequency exposure limits based on
that human proximity to the antenna shall not be less than 20cm during normal operation.

IC notice

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type
and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential
radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

Region Selection

Limited by local law regulations, version for North America does not have region

selection option.
