•
Digital Voltmeter (DVM), capable of measuring AC and DC voltage.
7.2 CUSTOMER
SUPPLIED
MATERIALS
The customer or designated installer must provide the following:
•
Ethernet or fiber optic Cable, length as required, Ethernet cable not to exceed 100 ft. (refer to Section
11.1.1 for cable specifications).
•
RF coaxial cable (directional or remotely mounted antenna), i.e. LMR-400 Low loss coaxial cable.
•
Pole mounting straps, i.e. Band-It
®
bands and buckles.
•
Power source (Standard models: 11 to 30 volts AC or DC, Hardened models: DC only, 16 watts
maximum AC or DC input power).
7.3 MOUNTING THE CLIENT FOR FIXED OPERATION
As shown in Figure 6-1, pole-mounting brackets can be installed onto the mounting surface of the Client
so it may be mounted horizontally, such as on the arm of a light post, the side of a mast pole or the leg of
a tower or other vertical post. In both cases, two metal straps (not included) are inserted into slots on the
brackets and tightened to the pole using industrial grade strapping equipment.
It is important to mount the Client so that its heat sink fins are positioned vertically, as
shown in Figure 6-1. This gives the Client the best thermal performance, allowing air to
move naturally through the fins.
Mounting the Client with the fins vertically also allows the RF antenna port to be in the best position for
mounting an omni-directional antenna, as shown in Figure 6-1.
7.3.1 Attaching the Mounting Brackets
1.
Orient the brackets so when the Client is mounted on a pole, the heat sink fins are vertical. This
position provides the best thermal convection (vertical fins) and shields the multiple connectors from
rain.
2.
Attach mounting brackets to Client using the flat washer, lock washer, and hex head bolt included
with the brackets. (Ensure that the lock washer is closest to the bolt’s head followed by the flat
washer positioned next to the mounting bracket.)
3.
The preferable mounting scheme is to have omni-directional antenna pointing straight up.
7.3.2 Attaching the Client to a Pole
1.
Strap the Client to pole using Band-It bands and buckles (not supplied). Follow the manufacturer’s
guidelines for proper band installation techniques.
2.
After installation, check the overall unit for stability and verify that the unit is not loose fitting.
7.4 POWER
CABLES
Power is supplied to the Client through a 2-pin connector. Both AC and DC input power uses the same
power connector. The mating connector is Conxall Multi-Con-X 2-pin connector #4180-2SG-300).
