General Equipment Precautions
Use of controls, adjustments, or performing procedures other than those
specified herein, may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
When working with a FibeAir IDU, note the following risk of electric
shock and energy hazard: Disconnecting one power supply disconnects
only one power supply module. To isolate the unit completely,
disconnect all power supplies.
Machine noise information order - 3. GPSGV, the highest sound pressure
level amounts to 70 dB (A) or less, in accordance with ISO EN 7779.
Static electricity may cause body harm, as well as harm to electronic
components inside the device.
Anyone responsible for the installation or maintenance of the FibeAir IDU
must use an ESD Wrist Strap.
ESD protection measures must be observed when touching the IDU.
To prevent damage, before touching components inside the device, all

Equipment connected to the protective earthing of the building installation
through the mains connection or through other equipment with a connection
to protective earthing –and to a cable distribution system using coaxial cable,
may in some circumstances create a fire hazard. Connection to a cable
distribution system has therefore to be provided through a device providing
electrical isolation below a certain frequency range (galvanic isolator, see EN
60728-11).
Utstyr som er koplet til beskyttelsesjord via nettplugg og/eller via annet
jordtilkoplet utstyr –og er tilkoplet et kabel-TV nett, kan forårsake brannfare.
For å unngå dette skal det ved tilkopling av utstyret til kabel-TV nettet
installeres en galvanisk isolator mellom utstyret og kabel- TV nettet.
Utrustning som är kopplad till skyddsjord via jordat vägguttag och/eller via
annan utrustning och samtidigt är kopplad till kabel-TV nät kan i vissa fall
medfőra risk főr brand. Főr att undvika detta skall vid anslutning av
utrustningen till kabel-TV nät galvanisk isolator finnas mellan utrustningen
och kabel-TV nätet.

enclosure, with the lowest unit in the enclosure (Unit Number 1) always
serving as the main unit.
The main unit performs the following functions:
Provides a central controller for management
Provides radio and line interfaces
Extension units provide radio and line interfaces, and are accessed through
the main unit.
7.7.1 Nodal Enclosure Design
Two types of shelves are available for a nodal configuration:
Main Nodal Enclosure –Each node must have a main nodal enclosure,
which can hold two IP-10 IDUs.
Extension Nodal Enclosure –Up to two extension nodal enclosures can be
stacked on top of the main nodal enclosure. Each extension nodal
enclosure can contain two IP-10 IDUs.
Main Nodal Enclosure
Extension Nodal Enclosure
Each nodal enclosure includes a backplane. The rear panel of an IP-10 IDU
includes an extra connector for connection to the backplane. The following
interfaces are implemented through the backplane:

7.8 Grounding the IDU and Electrical Information
The following illustration shows how the IDU is grounded to the rack.
IDU Grounding Notes
The IDU is suitable for installation in a Common Bonding Network (CBN).
Only copper wire should be used.
The wire must be at least 14 AWG.
Connector and connection surfaces must be plated. Bare conductors must
be coated with antioxidant before crimp connections are made to the
screws.
FibeAir provides a ground for each IDU, via a one-hole mounted lug onto a
single-point stud. The stud must be installed using a UL-listed ring tongue
terminal, and two star washers for anti-rotation.
For antenna ports, lightning protection is used that does not permit
transients of a greater magnitude than the following:
Open Circuit: 1.2-50us 600V
Short Circuit: 8-20us 300A
The ampacity of the conductor connecting the IDU frame to the DC return
conductor is equal to, or greater than, the ampacity of the associated DC
return conductor.
1 On the IDU, connect a grounding wire to the single point stud below the
IDU-RFU interface (using the single screw with two washers), and, at its
other end, to the rack.
