5.2.2 Wall Mount 5.2.2.1 Remote Unit using RU Chassis (ADX-R-CHA-30) Wall mount brackets attached to the individual remote modules must be removed before sliding the remote modules into the RU Chassis.
6. INSTALLATION 6.1 Pre-Installation Inspection Please follow these procedures before installing ADX equipment: o Verify the number of packages received against the packing list. o Check all packages for external damage; report any external damage to the shipping carrier. If there is damage, a shipping agent should be present before you unpack and inspect the contents because damage caused during transit is the responsibility of the shipping agent.

6.2.1.2 Wall mounting the ADX DAS HE If the ADX HE chassis is being mounted to a wall, then allow clearance of at least 17” (430mm) on the top (front side of HE) and 2” (51mm) on the bottom (rear side of HE) and 2” (51mm) on both sides and front for air circulation.
6.2.1.2.1 Installing added rack type modules into basic HE chassis Additional modules such as the ADX-H-RACK-ODU and ADX-H-BCU can be mounted to the Chassis (ADX-H-CHA) using the included mounting brackets that come with the add-on modules. A maximum of up to 3 addon modules (OPT, BCU) can be mounted to the chassis - ODU Rack or BCU will be stacked up above basic 19” HE chassis which includes NMS, RFU, PSU and CHC Figure 6-3 Advanced RF Technologies, Inc.
6.2.2 RU Installation Procedure CAUTION: ADX DAS RU should be installed inside building only. 6.2.2.1 Installing a ADX DAS RU in a rack If the ADX RU chassis is being wall mounted then allow clearance of 3” (76mm) front and rear, and 2” (51mm) on both sides for air circulation. No top or bottom clearance is required. When ADX DAS RU mounts in a standard 19” equipment rack, rack or wall type fan is needed for heat dissipation. The rack type fan (ADX-R-FAN) must have at least 1.75" of clearance.
Figure 6-4 Advanced RF Technologies, Inc.
6.2.2.2 Wall mounting the ADX DAS RU If the ADX RU chassis is being mounted to a wall, then allow clearance of at least 16” (406mm) on the top (front side of RU), 2” (51mm) on the bottom (rear side of RU) and 2” (51mm) on both sides and front for air circulation.
6.2.2.2.1 Installing added rack type modules into basic HE chassis Additional modules such as the ADX-R-CHC (channel combiner) and ADX-R-PSU (power supply unit) can be mounted to the Chassis (ADX-R-CHA) using the included mounting brackets that come with the add-on modules. A maximum of up to 2 addon modules (ADX-R-CHC and ADX-R-PSU) can be mounted to the chassis. - ADX-R-PSU or ADX-R-CHC will be stacked up above basic 19” RU chassis which holds the Master/Slave RU units.

6.2.3 ADX-H-OEU Installation Procedure CAUTION: ADX-H-OEU should be installed inside building only. 6.2.3.1 Installing a ADX-H-OEU in a Rack The ADX-H-OEU mounts in a standard 19” (483mm) equipment rack. Allow clearance of 3” (76mm) front and rear, and 2” (51mm) on both sides for air circulation. No top or bottom clearance is required. Consideration: - Four mounting holes are located on 4 corners of ADX-H-OEU to attach it to the 19” rack.
Figure 6-8 Advanced RF Technologies, Inc.
6.2.3.2 Wall mounting the ADX-H-OEU Mount procedure - The following steps should be followed while mounting the ADX-H-OEU Verify that the OEU and Mounting hole are in good condition Drill holes(4holes, 6Φmm) in the installation surface then insert the enclosed anchor bolts Set the ADX-H-OEU against the wall Make sure the OEU is securely attached Connect the RF cable Connect the Antenna cable Connect the Power Connect the Optic cable Figure 6-9 Advanced RF Technologies, Inc.
6.3 Grounding A ground cable is included in the box. The grounding terminals are located at the rear of the ADX HE and RU. The grounding cable should be properly connected before powering on the equipment.
6.4 Optic Port Cleaning We recommend cleaning optic connector using a dry optical cleaning swab or tissue in a dry environment as needed. We recommend cleaning the optic connectors only if the expected optic loss is higher than the loss reported in the Web-GUI by 1.5dBo. (Figure 6-12) When optic connector are not in use, the port should be covered with a protective dust cap.
7. WARRANTY AND REPAIR POLICY 7.1 General Warranty The ADX carries a Standard Warranty period of two (2) years unless indicated otherwise on the package or in the acknowledgment of the purchase order. 7.2 Limitations of Warranty Your exclusive remedy for any defective product is limited to the repair or replacement of the defective product. Advanced RF Technologies, Inc. may elect which remedy or combination of remedies to provide in its sole discretion. Advanced RF Technologies, Inc.
8. WEB-GUI 8.1 Web-GUI Setup The Web-GUI allows the user to communicate with the DAS system either locally or remotely. To connect to the DAS system locally, you will need a laptop with an Ethernet port and a RJ-45 crossover cable. To connect to the DAS system remotely, you will need to have an active internet connection and the ADX system must have and external modem box connected to the ADX. 8.1.
8.2 Administrator/User Mode 8.2.1 Common 8.2.1.1 Navigation tree Lock/Unlock When the system is “Locked”, a green lock icon will appear above the navigation tree. When the system is locked, new devices cannot be added. Any devices added to the system when the system is “Locked” will not be detected by the NMS. After a system has been commissioned properly, the system should be left in the “Locked” position. To unlock the system, click on the “Unlock System” button to the right of the icon.
