Installation of the Surge Protection Device
In an effort to protect the equipment inside the HPSA or IPC-8000 enclosure from transient voltages,
a Surge Protective Device (SPD), PN X03-02394, is provided with the RADIO-900M.
1.
Identify a location for the SPD. The SPD should be mounted on the outside of the HPSA or
IPC-8000 enclosure, adjacent to the enclosure and as close to the RF entry point as possible.
2.
Connect the RF cable from the Antenna to the N-type Female connector on the SPD.
3.
Connect the RF Cable exiting the HPSA or IPC-8000 cabinet to the other N-type Female
connector on the SPD.
The Surge Protection Device provided with the RADIO-900M is
designed to protect the HPSA or IPC-
8000 enclosure’s interior
equipment from low level transient voltages; it is not designed as
lightning protection for the Antenna or Building.
The Surge Protective device (SPD) provided with the RADIO-900M is
not designed as a NEMA 4Xconnector; it should not be installed as a
thru-wall or thru-bulkhead connection.
NEC requirements specify antenna installations and cable runs
should include an appropriate Listed
Antenna Discharge Unit
where the antenna wiring enters the building. It is the
responsibility of the installer to
ensure that the
antenna and cable
run meets all requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction.
