2.2 Tools and Instruments
You must prepare the following tools and instruments before the installation.
2.3 Skills and Requirements for Onsite Personnel
Onsite personnel must be qualified and trained. Before performing any operation, onsite
personnel must be familiar with correct operation methods and safety precautions.
2.1 Reference Documents
Before the installation, you must be familiar with reference documents.
The following reference documents are required during DRH installation:
Onsite personnel must be qualified and trained. Before performing any operation, onsite
personnel must be familiar with correct operation methods and safety precautions.
Before the installation, pay attention to the following items:
The customer's technical engineers must be trained by Huawei and be familiar with the
proper installation and operation methods.
The number of onsite personnel depends on the engineering schedule and installation
environment. Generally, only three to five onsite personnel are necessary.
Before installing a DRH, you must be familiar with its exterior, ports, indicators, installation
options and installation clearance requirements.

3.4 Installation Scenarios
A DRH can be installed on a pole, U-steel, angle steel, wall, or IFS06. Installation scenarios
must meet heat-dissipation and waterproofing requirements of the DRH.
(2) Installation support (pole, U-steel, angle steel, or wall)
Method of installation:
To ensure the heat dissipation of the DRH and waterproofing of the ports at the bottom
of the DRH, the vertical deviation angle of a DRH must be less than or equal to 10
degrees, as shown in Figure 3-5.
U-steel and angle steel support the standard or reverse installation of a single DRH only.
Figure 3-5 Requirements for the vertical deviation angle of a DRH
Installing a DRH on a Pole
Figure 3-6 shows the diameter of a pole for installing a DRH.
It is recommended that only one DRH be installed on one angle steel.
Figure 3-15 shows a DRH installed on angle steel.
Figure 3-15 DRH installed on angle steel
Installing a DRH on a Wall
The wall for installing DRHs must meet the following requirements:
For each DRH, the wall must be able to bear a weight four times the DRH's weight and
the bolts' pulling force of 1.25 kN (281.25 lbf) vertical to the wall.
Expansion bolts must be tightened to 15 N·m (132.76 lbf·in.) so that the bolts stay
secured without damaging the wall.
The mounting brackets for multiple DRHs cannot be combined when the DRHs are installed
on a wall in side-mounted mode, as shown in Figure 3-16.
Figure 3-16 Correct installation of mounting brackets for multiple DRHs
Figure 3-17 shows a DRH installed on a wall.
Figure 3-17 DRH installed on a wall
Installing a DRH on an IFS06
In an IFS06 scenario:
The upper and lower adjustable beams on an IFS06 can be moved up and down to fit for
heights of DRHs.
The IFS06 supports at least three DRHs when the ambient temperature is higher than or
equal to the lowest operating temperature of the DRH and at least 5°C (41°F) lower than
the highest operating temperature of the DRH. The IFS06 supports a maximum of six
DRHs when the ambient temperature is higher than or equal to the lowest operating
temperature of the DRH and at least 10°C (50°F) lower than the highest operating
temperature of the DRH.
This section describes the requirements for the installation clearance of a single DRH and
multiple DRHs and the requirements for the installation spacing between DRHs.
3.5.1 Clearance for a Single DRH
This section describes the recommended and minimum clearance for a single DRH.
The recommended clearance ensures normal running and provides an appropriate space for
operation and maintenance (OM). If there is sufficient space, leave the recommended clearance after
installing the equipment.
The minimum clearance ensures normal running and heat dissipation, but OM activities such as
checking indicator status and opening the cabling cavity cannot be properly conducted. If the
installation space is restricted, leave the minimum clearance after installing the equipment.
Recommended Clearance for a Single DRH
Figure 3-20 shows the recommended clearance for a single DRH.
Figure 3-20 Recommended clearance for a single DRH
Minimum Clearance for a Single DRH
Figure 3-21 shows the minimum clearance for a single DRH.
This section describes the recommended and minimum clearances for three or more DRHs.
The recommended clearances ensure normal running and provide an appropriate space for operation
and maintenance (OM). If there is sufficient space, retain the recommended clearances.
The minimum clearances ensure normal running and heat dissipation but do not allow OM activities
such as checking indicator status and opening the cabling cavity. If the installation space is
insufficient, retain the minimum clearances after the installation.
Recommended Clearances for Three or More DRHs Installed on a Pole
Figure 3-22 shows the recommended clearances for multiple DRHs installed in centralized
