Pole Mounting the ODU

The 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.

1

Thread the M10*100 mm bolt through the M10 spring washer, M10 nut, and the bracket holes.

2

With the connector facing downward, attach the ODU to a 1"- 4" pole.

3

Attach the bracket to the other side of the pole.

4

Thread the M10*100 mm bolts through both holes on either side. Tighten the nuts.

Connecting the Grounding Cable

The Grounding screw (marked

) is located on the rear panel of the ODU.

1

Connect one end of a grounding cable to the grounding screw and tighten the grounding screw

firmly.

2

Connect the other end of the grounding cable to a good ground (earth) connection.

2.3.3

Connecting and Sealing the IDU-ODU PoE Cable

Use a crimp tool for RJ-45 connectors to prepare the wires. Insert them into the appropriate pins and use

the tool to crimp the connector. Make sure to do the following:



Remove as small a length as possible of the external jacket. Verify that the external jacket is well

inside the sealing cover when connected to the unit, to ensure good sealing.



Pull back the shield drain wire before inserting the cable into the RJ-45 connector to ensure a good

connection with the connector's shield after crimping.

The IDU-ODU cable provides pin-to-pin connection on both ends.

To connect the grounding cable:

CAUTION

Use only Category

5E 4x2x24# FTP outdoor cables from an approved manufacturer. See list of approved

cables in

Table 2-1

.The length of the Indoor-to-Outdoor cable should not exceed 90 meters. The length

of the Indoor-to-Outdoor cable, together with the length of the Ethernet cable connecting the IDU to

the data equipment, should not exceed 100 meters.
