5 CHASSIS GROUND CONNECTION
A stud is provided on the rear side of the chassis for connecting a grounding wire to the chassis.
Use the following procedure to connect the grounding wire to the chassis and to route the
grounding wire to an approved earth ground source.
1. Obtain a length of #18 AWG (1.00 mm) insulated stranded copper wire for use as a
chassis grounding wire.
2. Terminate one end of the wire with a ring terminal.
3. Locate the chassis ground stud at the rear of the HU as shown in Figure 3-7.
Figure 3-7. Chassis Ground Stud
4. Attach the ring end of the wire to the chassis ground stud (see Figure 3-7).
5. Route the free end of the chassis grounding wire to an approved (per local code or
practice) earth ground source.
6. Cut the chassis grounding wire to length and connect it to the approved ground source as
required by local code or practice.
6 COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTIONS
The RF interface between the HU and the BTS is supported through two N-type female
connectors mounted on the HU front panel. One connector provides the coaxial cable
connection for the forward path (downlink) signal and the other connector provides the coaxial
cable connection for the reverse path (uplink) signal.
In most installations, it is usually necessary to insert some attenuation in the forward path link
between the HU and the BTS. A signal level that is greater than –9 dBm will overdrive and
Note: Be sure to maintain reliable grounding. Pay particular attention to ground source
connections.
