Important Safety Instructions WARNING: It is illegal to modify the construction of this product. Modifying the operating frequency or enhancing the transmit output power through the use of external amplifiers or other equipment is specifically disallowed by the "Telecommunications Act." WARNING: This device is for outdoor or indoor use with conditions that no harmful interference to authorized radio stations results from the operation of this device.
Caution: There are no user-serviceable parts inside. All service must be performed by qualified personnel. Caution Only UL listed parts and components will be used for installation. Use UL listed devices having an environmental rating equal to or better than the enclosure rating to close all unfilled openings. Caution To maintain Overvoltage (Installation) Category II, install a suitable surge suppressor device in the branch circuit to limit expected transients to Overvoltage Category II values.
Choosing a Location To ensure the optimal performance select the locations for the equipment using the following guidelines: The antenna (not-integrated on the front panel of the outdoor unit) should provide a direct, or near line of sight, with the sector location that need to be covered. The antenna should be aligned to face the CPEs that aim to be in service, higher the placement of the antenna, the better the achievable link quality (but not in all cases).
Sun Shield To extend the Wavion WBS-2400/5800 operating temperature range a sun shield plate might be used. The sun shield is available as an additional accessory from Wavion Networks. See Installation Accessories on page 32 for details. The sun shield plate is installed with 6 screws (supplied with the sun shield) attaching it from the top at the special threaded screw holes. Power Source Options The WBS-2400/5800 is powered by a Wavion POE Injector connected ETH port of the unit.
Mounting Strategies Consider the available mounting structures and antenna clearance when choosing a mounting location. Wavion outdoor unit WBS-2400/5800 should always be mounted with the top of the unit parallel to the ground, and with the antennas pointing upward and clear of obstruction. It is recommended to attach ground and data cables to the WBS-2400/5800 prior to mounting.
Figure 4.2 Example Mounting Locations on a Streetlight Using Hose Clamps Special hose clamps that include threaded holes are used by the mounting assembly to secure the WBS-2400/5800 to the mounting structure. Figure 4.3 demonstrate how to correctly use the hose clamps. The bands must be threaded through holes in the pole bracket, and then attached to either a vertical or a horizontal pole and tightened.
Figure 4.3 Using Special Hose Clamps & Screwing the Clamps Mounting on a Pole/Streetlight WBS-2400/5800 can be mounted on a pole, tower, or streetlight. It is recommended to mount the WBS-2400/5800 on aluminum or galvanized steel structures. Note The Wavion WBS-2400/5800 must be mounted with the top of the unit parallel with the ground and with the antennas pointing upward.
Figure 4.4 Mounting on a Metal Pole Warning: Metal pole installation requires that the antennas are higher than the top of the pole. Note Be sure to mount the unit with the bottom panel, which includes the LED indicators, facing downward Note Antennas must be higher than the top of the metal pole and clear of any obstructions Note Mounting to wood, concrete, or painted poles requires primary grounding for the unit. Check the national electrical codes in your area for specific rules.
Figure 4.5 Attaching the WBS-2400/5800 to the pole bracket Note: The WBS-2400/5800 unit must be parallel to the ground. The unit can be rotated to obtain the correct position. Note Installations on large wooden poles require band clamps such as those supplied by Panduit, www.panduit.com. Such a product is listed as "Metal, Locking Tie Extra Heavy Duty 304 Stainless Steel".
Warning: Transient or electrostatic discharges that may occur at the WBS2400/5800, for example a lightning strike, may damage your network equipment connected to the WBS-2400/5800 and cause personnel injury or death of persons touching the exposed metal connectors of the equipment. You must install a properly grounded lightning surge protector. Carefully follow the installation instructions provided by the manufacturer of the protection device.
1. Position the protection device as close to the building entrance as possible. 2. Attach a length of #10 AWG bare copper wires to the ground post on the data protection device. 3. Attach the other end of the grounding wire to the ground connection of an electrical outlet or a grounded water pipe. Figure 4.

In order for the WBS-2400/5800 to work properly, six antennas must be connected.
Figure 4.10 Connecting antenna WARNING: Only connect the unit to the power supply once all the antennas are connected. WARNING: Use caution when connecting the antennas. Undue haste can damage the unit. WARNING: Do not screw in the antenna when holding the top section of the antenna. You will most likely damage the antenna. The successful insertion of six antennas should look as follows.
The Wavion WBS-2400/5800 is equipped with two RJ45 connectors. The right hand port named "TEST" is for engineering use only (!) and has to be sealed with the sealing rubber. Use the ETH port to connect data and power cable. Figure 4.11 Connecting PoE cable WARNING: The port named "TEST" is for engineering use only. In any case do not connect PoE source to "TEST" port (!) Note: Use only shielded Cat5e cable rated for outdoor use. See Installation Accessories on page 32 for details.
and current surges. Note: This is not a mid-span powered device. Do not attempt to daisychain Power Over Ethernet devices. When connecting to the Ethernet port, if you need to terminate the Ethernet cable, use a standard RJ45 termination. Use a shielded RJ45 plug and be sure to connect the shield of the Ethernet cable to the shield of the RJ 45 plug. To connect to the data port: 1. Make sure that the power is turned off for the designated circuits. 2.
5. Place the sealing rubber on the cable and push it towards RJ45 connector on WBS-2400/5800 Figure 4.12 Sealing rubber 6. Tighten the band on sealing rubber for better sealing or using plastic clips.
