Rack mount instructions
Caution: Double Pole/Neutral Fusing.
•Elevated Operating Ambient – If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the
operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room
ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the
manufacturers. 3000 DAS Primary and Secondary Hubs have a Tma of 45°C.
•Reduced Air Flow – Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the
amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
•Mechanical Loading – Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
•Circuit Overloading – Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment
to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on
overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
•Reliable Earthing – Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections
to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
•Disconnect Device – The socket outlet shall be installed near the equipment, be easily
accessible and will act as the disconnect for the Hub.
•Keep these Instructions in a safe place.

Installation, use and storage
The Zinwave 3000 DAS is designed to operate in conditions conformant with Pollution
Degree 2 as defined in IEC 60950 (the normal environmental class for offices).
The installation of sub-assemblies into the main units of the Zinwave 3000 DAS shall only be
undertaken if precautions required by IEC/TS 61340-5-1 have been taken.
This covers the installation of Zinwave Optical Link modules into the Zinwave 3000 DAS
Hub Unit.
Warning : CLASS I PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT TYPE A as defined in IEC 60950. This
equipment is intended for connection to other equipment or a network, relies on
connection to protective earth and must be connected to an earthed mains socket-outlet.
Country specific warnings:
Finland "Laite on liitettävä suojamaadoituskoskettimilla varustettuun pistorasiaan"
Norway “Apparatet må tilkoples jordet stikkontakt”
Sweden "Apparaten skall anslutas till jordat uttag"
Caution: Unit operating voltage is factory set at either 120V or 230V and cannot be
changed by an operator. Check which variant is supplied and only operate at the rated
voltage.
Signal and input power
Caution: The input power to the 3000 DAS Hub Unit should not exceed +10dBm. Power
levels greater than +25dBm will damage the unit
Caution: The input power to the Zinwave Remote Unit should not exceed -10dBm. Power
levels greater than 0dBm will damage the unit
Caution: The total broadband composite output power is limited to +18dBm in Europe
and +20dBm in the USA and Canada. The maximum allowed EIRP in the USA & Canada is
+28dBm which corresponds to an antenna gain of 8dBi. Contact Zinwave for the maximum
output power in other regions.
Caution: The maximum allowed antenna gain when operating in Europe in the 2.4GHz ISM
band shall be +2dBi. Contact Zinwave for further information regarding use of the ISM band
in other regions.
