2．Periodically check whether the installed MSR4000 is damaged, worn-out or poses any

danger. Any actual proof, sign, or phenomenon of the afore-mentioned situations should be

brought to the attention of the company at the point of sale. Please DO NOT attempt to

repair the product or replace any component. The company shall not be liable for any

consequence arising out of or relating to the users’ attempt to repair the product, including

but not limited to damages, disuse, short circuit, fire, bodily injury, etc.

3. Users shall purchase or use the company’s MSR4000 voluntarily. Users shall understand

on their own initiative and abide voluntarily by policies, regulations, or laws of their respective

Safety Warnings

The MSR4000 must be installed by trained professionals or installation technicians. All

warnings below must be read and understood before installation.

General Safety Warnings

You can be killed or injured if performing antenna installation near electrical

power lines. Carefully read and follow all instructions in this guide. Please be sure there

are no high voltage and electronic fields nearby.

Working Aloft Warning

When working on tower or roof, individuals must wear safety belts. Tools must

be tied to the individual using them. Workers below must wear safety helmets.

Lightning Activity Warning

Make sure not to connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning

activity.

A surge protective device should be installed to prevent potential damage from very high

surges, for instance, the peak surges caused by lightning.

MSR4000 Installation Guide 3

Explosive Device Proximity Warning

Do not operate wireless network devices close to explosive merchandise or in

explosive environments if devices are not certified for operation in such an environment,

for example, in the vicinity of a gas station.

Antenna Placement Warning

Do not install any antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light, or

where the antenna can come into contact with such circuits.

Antenna Selection Warning

Use the DC grounding antenna with lightning protection to prevent surge and

static electricity.

Grounding Warning

Always remember to protect your MSR4000 system by installation of grounding

lines. The ground connection must be complete before connecting power to the

MSR4000 enclosure. The requirement of grounding is to make sure the resistance

between the ground termination point and the grounding tier is less than 5 ohm.

Power Installation Warning

The installation of the power switch must be performed by a trained professional

technician.

The power switch is not supplied with the MSR4000. The power cord must be

assembled by a professional installer, and the final assembly must comply with related

requirements.

4 MSR4000 Installation Guide

Solar Radiation and High Temperature Protection

Pay attention to the level of sunlight. This could cause an increase in the working

temperature of the MSR4000. Make sure the working temperature of the MSR4000 is

not higher than the specifications listed in this document.

A solar shield is provided in the Aruba standard package and should be installed to

protect any outdoor MSR4000. The Aruba Warrantee policy does not cover those

outdoor products for which solar shields are not installed. Please contact Aruba

technical support engineers for detailed information.

RF Device Protection

Before powering up the MSR4000, we recommend that the RF ports are

connected to antennas or valid loads. RF modules with less than 100mW power may

work in a test environment without antennas or load connections, provided the duration

of operation is less than 30 minutes.

Protection on unused RF module

The unused RF interface must be closed via configuration command and its protective

cap must be wrapped up by waterproof PVC tape to prevent it from falling off. Otherwise,

the RF module may be damaged. Aruba will not take any responsibility for such damage.

FCC Certificate

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance

could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

REMINDER

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must

accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

MSR4000 Installation Guide 5

NOTICE

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital

device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and

used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio

communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a

particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television

reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Precautions

The radiated output power of this device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits

based on that human proximity to the antenna shall not be less than 34cm during normal

operation.

IC notice

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be

so chosen that the equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that permitted

for successful communication.
