Safety
CAUTION, WARNING, and DANGER statements have been strategically placed in the
text to alert personnel of possible hazards. These statements must be closely observed.
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation
and service of the products covered in this manual. Failure to comply with these
precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual willfully violates
standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the product. BridgeWave assumes
no liability for the customer’s failure to comply with these requirements.
•
Do not operate wireless equipment without an appropriate termination.
•
Do not work directly in front of an energized antenna. Prior to working on the
antenna or RF assembly, ensure that the RF assembly is not radiating energy.
When power is applied to the RF assembly and antenna, proper precautions must
be taken to avoid placing any part of the human body in front of the antenna.
•
The outdoor equipment must be properly grounded to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges. In the event of a short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock.
For installations in the U.S.A., refer to Articles 810830 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, for information with respect to proper grounding and
applicable lightning protection for DC cables.
For installations in all other countries, implement protection in accordance with
the safety standards and regulatory requirements of the country where the
equipment is to be installed.
•
Do not install or operate this equipment in the presence of flammable gases or
fumes. Operation of any electrical instrument in such an environment constitutes
a definite safety hazard.
