2.3.2Pole Mounting the New ODU

The new ODU can be mounted on a 1" to 4" pole using one of the following options:

„A pole mounting kit is supplied with each unit. The kit includes a special clamp and a pair of threaded rods, flat washers, spring washers and nuts. There are two pairs of threaded holes on the back of the unit, enabling to use the mounting kit for installing the unit using either vertical or horizontal polarization. The clamp enables installing the unit on diverse pole diameters from 1" to 4".

„A Tilt Pole Mounting kit, providing a tilt range of +/-15° is available from Alvarion. The Tilt kit can be attached to the ODU and be mounted on a 1" to 4" pole using two 9/16" wide metal bands.

The following sections describe the installation of the SU-A-ODU. Installation of the new SU-E-ODU or AU-E-ODU (0.9 GHz) is similar, with the exception that it does not include an integral antenna and the polarization issue is not relevant.
