1 – Foreword 1.1 – Structure of the manual This manual is for users with a sound knowledge of how to operate and install point-multipoint microwave systems and how to use a PC-based craft terminal running the Windows operating system. With it, you should quickly be able to operate the equipment. It is not intended to replace the training services that we can provide for your particular needs.
1.3 – Safety instructions 1.3.1 – General rules The following general safety precautions must be observed by the installer and the operator. ALCATEL assumes no liability for the customer's failure to comply with these requirements. • Ground the equipment: for Safety Class 1 equipment, always connect the earth conductor of the power cable to an appropriate earthing device. • DO NOT operate the product in an explosive atmosphere or in presence of flammable gases or fumes.
Placement of transmitting equipment To prevent exposure to non-ionizing radiation, the X-Pol RT should always be mounted at a minimum of 3m (10 ft) above ground level or roof-top level. An X-Pol RT that is mounted on a wall should be mounted at least 3m (10 ft) away from any point of exposure such as windows, balconies or doors. X-Pol RT service and repair safety precautions Only authorized personnel should service X-Pol RT units. Danger - Never touch the X-Pol RT antennas while they are in operation.
Protective grounding terminal These symbols indicate a terminal that must be connected to earth ground prior to making any other connections to the equipment. Supply wire protective earth Protective earth Dangerous voltage This symbol indicates the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product's enclosure that could cause electric shock. Labels bearing this symbol are installed on the outside of the product enclosure.
International EMC compliance The EMC compliance of these products relies on the user following the installation processes correctly. Failure to follow the correct installation processes may result in non-compliance to the EMC standards against which these products have been assessed. Appropriate shielded cables must be used to connect NT to telecommunications equipment. NT EMC compliance This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
United States Federal Communications Commission regulations This equipment has been approved to the Federal Communications Commission Part 68 Rules as not being harmful to the telephone network when connected directly to telephone lines. Customers must, upon request from the telephone company, provide the following information: – FCC Registration Numbers – USOC: RJ48C – FIC: 04DU9-BN/DN/1KN/1SN – SOC: 6.0Y The FCC identification number can be found on the product label located on the product chassis.
Food and Drug Administration This product complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 regulations, which govern the safe use of lasers. Only qualified service personnel, thoroughly familiar with laser radiation hazards, should install or remove the fiber optic cables used in this system. Information regarding the safe use of lasers can be found in ANSI Z 136.1: Safe Use of Lasers and ANSI Z 136.2: Safe Use of Lasers in Optical Fiber Communications Systems.

Access to building or tower Access to the rooftop or tower and equipment room must be available day or night, 24 hours each day for emergency repair or configuration. Arranging access with the appropriate partner (facility security personnel, or the building/tower owner or lease-holder) is the responsibility of the wireless equipment owner.
Power The MainStreetXpress 36170 shelf consumes a maximum of 1050 W of power. Each –48 V power supply used to power an X-Pol RBS Tx or X-Pol RBS Rx radios consumes 50W of power. Electrical ground access The equipment room must provide access to a ground source that fulfils all international, national, territorial, regional and municipal regulations for absorbing energy discharge from lightning arresters.
– cable guides and ladders, – cable hangers and cable grounding kits, – antenna heaters (to prevent antenna icing). Grounded entry point Each BS requires a grounded entry point in order to ground BS components and cables. Refer to local electrical code requirements when choosing a grounded entry point for the BS.
Caution - When installing IF cable, use the connectors and connector tools recommended in Appendix A. Failure to do so could damage the connectors or result in poor signal quality. Weatherproofing IF cable connectors and cable entry points must be weatherproofed. IF cable connectors Moisture in IF cables causes an increase in VSWR that increases signal loss beyond the specifications of the system.
2.4.3 – Equipment and cable connection for non-redundant and redundant X-Pol RBS Tx/X-Pol RBS Rx configurations Figure 6 shows a typical non-redundant X-Pol RBS Tx/X-Pol RBS Rx BS configuration. Figure 7 shows a redundant X-Pol RBS Tx/X-Pol RBS Rx BS configuration. Grounding, surge protection and power connection for non-redundant and redundant systems are similar. Attenuators, if required, are installed between the 12:2 Combiner/Splitter and the Bias-T. Table 13 lists the BS components and part numbers.

– attach antennas to mounting plates, – ground the X-Pol RBS Tx and X-Pol RBS Rx, – adjust antenna downtilt, – replace a X-Pol RBS Tx, X-Pol RBS Rx or antenna. Note - X-Pol RBS Txs, X-Pol RBS Rxs and antennas must be installed and serviced by trained personnel who are experienced in the local, national and civil electrical and safety regulations of the area where the equipment is being installed. Some areas require that only licensed individuals may install and service equipment.
To install an X-Pol RBS Tx or X-Pol RBS Rx on an antenna that is already attached to a mounting plate, the antenna must be removed from the mounting plate without disturbing the antenna downtilt. See procedure 6-6 for information on removing an antenna from a mounting bracket. Note 1 - Do not remove the shipping caps from the coaxial and RS-442 connectors on the X-Pol RBS Tx and X-Pol RBS Rx until the BS cables are ready for attachment.
