Chapter 2: Infrastructure Device Installation
•The antenna must have a separation distance of at least 2 meters from the body of all persons and must not be
•Users and installers must be provided with antenna installation and transmitter operating conditions to satisfy RF exposure compliance.
•When deploying the MOTOMESH Duo 4300 device, the antenna(s) should be a minimum of 30 inches from any nearby metal poles to avoid distortion of the RF pattern.
•The installation location must provide power to the MOTOMESH DUO 4300 Device.
•It is the responsibility of the Network Operator to ensure that the installation complies with any local building codes and permits.
Grounding Considerations
In order for a grounding system to be effective, a low impedance path to earth ground must be present. The grounding system must have conductors of sufficient size to withstand the high fault currents that must be shunted along this path. The lower the impedance the grounding system displays, the better its capability to perform its task. The impedance requirement for a communications site is determined by the classification of the site. Sites are broken down into 2 categories: Type
Since Type B grounding requirements stipulate 5 ohms or less impedance to earth ground, things such as soil pH, type of grounding rods, size of conductors, and ground enhancing materials must be taken into account to achieve this goal. To verify the impedance requirements are met, a special Earth/Ground Resistance Tester (megohmmeter) may be necessary.
•If the MOTOMESH product is attached to a light arm and the attachment point meets the Type B grounding requirements, then the grounding stud attachment point is not required to be used.
To avoid damage to the equipment, adequate grounding for all MOTOMESH devices is mandatory.
