1.3 Precautionary Measures
CAUTION
Before you start the installation, please read this section very carefully.
Antennas are installed on the roof tops or on the building walls. This work must be
accomplished only by personnel having special skills and experience in this area.
Antennas and cables are electric conductors. Incidental electrostatic strikes may
occur during the system installation. This can lead to equipment damage or may
hurt the personnel. While installing or changing the elements of the antenna-feeder
system, one must make sure that open metal parts are temporarily grounded.
Do not install the antenna close to the electric power lines. Antenna and antenna
pole have to be installed in such a way that, during their assembling, disassembling
and repairing, they do not have any contact with power lines.
Basic precautionary measures that must be fulfilled during the installation are as
follows:
Do not stay on the roof top in windy or rainy weather, during thunderstorms
or when the working zone is covered with snow or ice
Do not touch the antennas, antenna poles, cables and lighting arrestors
during thunderstorms
Antenna cable must be grounded at all times.
In case of failure, any manipulation of the equipment is allowed to trained personnel
only.

2 Equipment Positioning Guidelines during InfiNet
Wireless R5000 Installation
2.1 Antenna Placement
When selecting an antenna placement for PtP link, in order to obtain the maximum link range
and performance, LOS must be clear for the path between the two antennas.
The radio beam is an invisible form of electromagnetic wave propagation and is not as thin as,
for example, a light (or laser) beam. The main energy in a radio beam is concentrated along the
straight line between the two antennas, inside an area the shape of an ellipsoid (or a rugby
ball). This area is called a 1 Fresnel zone and its exact form and size depends upon the
st
frequency and the signal propagation path length.
If most of the 1 Fresnel zone is obstructed, a major part of the radio wave’s electromagnetic
st
energy is lost, which leads to a severe signal quality degradation and, as a result, to decreased
coverage range or performance.
Below is an incomplete list of possible obstructions on the signal propagation path:
Neighboring buildings
Trees
Bridges
Power lines
To obtain the best results, it is necessary to perform a precise analysis of the signal
propagation path and possible obstructions that may cover the 1 Fresnel zone.
st
Here are some general recommendations for antenna placement:
NOTE
For radio planning and path profile analysis, both the terrain model and clutter layer
of the area are required. These are typically provided by professional mapping
vendors. For details, please contact InfiNet Wireless.

Installation of InfiNet Wireless R5000 9
Try to keep the LOS clear of obstructions. In case of installations over vegetation and
forest, make sure the direct LOS stays above the trees; in urban environments - above
the tallest buildings along the radio path
The influence of trees can be variable, depending on seasons (ice, dew, leaves). Keep
in mind that, during spring and summer, leaves can absorb high levels of radio energy.
Therefore, when installing during the cold season, over forests and trees without leaves,
try to achieve a higher fade margin
Proximity to other antennas should be avoided
Reflecting surfaces should be considered (buildings with reflective windows, water
surfaces or wet grounds). These can be useful in NLOS situations, where there is no
direct clear path between the 2 antennas, so the radio signal needs to be reflected off a
surface. However, these can also decrease the signal quality when encountered along a
clear LOS link, because of fading caused by multipath
When installing antennas over water, tune the height bracket within 1-3 meters range
variation, because it can yield significant signal level variations due to multipath fading
If seasonal changes influence the signal quality, then the most probable reasons would
be either that the connectors are not protected well enough from humidity, or that the
cables, connectors or antennas are covered by vegetation during summer or ice during
winter.
When planning the antenna placement for connections, one must consider the necessity PtMP
of a circular or sector coverage areas. In this respect, it is not recommended to use omni-
directional antennas when sector antennas can be used.

2.2 Mounting Types
2.2.1 Pole Mounting
Antenna installation is performed on a special facility called antenna pole. The pole is used for
strong antenna tightening at the installation site. Poles might have different modifications
depending on the installation requirements.
Figure - Pole mounting
2.2.2 Poles with Stretching
Usually this kind of poles are used when installing antennas on a flat surface and allow the
installer to raise the antenna to a significant height for providing optimal conditions for signal
propagation.
2.2.3 Wall Mounting
This kind of mounting is used when there is no need to elevate the antenna above the rooftop
and there is the possibility of mounting it on a wall. This installation is significantly simpler than
the implementation with poles.
Mostly it is used for subscriber side deployments.
2.2.4 Pole Requirements
Easy access and sufficient mechanical durability of the pole should provide quick and reliable
fastening in conditions of high wind loads. Poles should have a round profile for ease of
azimuth adjustment. Typical pole diameter is 30 to 85 mm.
