Models This manual covers the SU-IIR (SU-I) indoor wireless subscriber modem
and the outdoor SU-OIA/SU-ORF (SU-O) wireless subscriber modem.
1.1 Safety Warnings
1. Installation of the system must be contracted to a professional installer.
2. Read this user manual and follow all operating and safety instructions.
3. PoE power adapter caution:
PoE Power Adapter Caution
Warning to Service Personnel: 48 VDC
Connecting customer premises Ethernet equipment directly to the 'Data and
Power Out' connector on the subscriber Power-over-Ethernet power adapter
may damage customer network interface equipment. Customer equipment
including personal computers, routers, etc., must only be connected to the
'Data In' port on the PoE unit. Only the outdoors Ethernet interface cable to the
subscriber can be safely connected to the 'Data and Power Out' connector.
4. The power requirements are indicated on the product-marking label. Do not
exceed the described limits.
5. Use only a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
Disconnect the power before cleaning.
6. Disconnect power when unit is stored for long periods.
7. The outdoor unit must not be located near power lines or other electrical
power circuits.
8. The system must be properly grounded to protect against power surges and
accumulated static electricity. It is the user’s responsibility to install this
device in accordance with the local electrical codes: correct installation
procedures for grounding of the outdoor unit, mast, lead-in wire and discharge
unit, location of discharge unit, size of grounding conductors and connection
requirements for grounding electrodes.
9. Keep all product information for future reference.
1.2 Important Warning Symbols
The following symbols may be encountered during installation or troubleshooting.
These warning symbols mean danger. Bodily injury may result if you are not
aware of the safety hazards involved in working with electrical equipment and

radio transmitters. Familiarize yourself with standard safety practices before
continuing.
Electro-Magnetic Radiation High Voltage
1.3 CSA Information
1. The equipment must be properly grounded according with NEC, ICEC, CEC,
and others, and other local safety code and building code requirements.
2. To meet the over-voltage safety requirements on the telecommunications
cables, a minimum 26 AWG telecommunication line cord must be used.
3. "Pour être en conformance avec les exigences finies de sûreté de sur-tension
sur les câbles de télécommunications un fil de télécommunication ayant un
caliber minimum de 26 AWG doit être utilisé."
4. Reminder to all the broadband wireless system installers: Attention to Section
820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding, and in
particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding
system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as is practical.
1.4 Frequency Selection
1.4.1 General
Operation in the FWA band is subject to license. The radio power and channel
frequency selections must be set correctly before the installed system is allowed
to transmit. The installed system must comply with all governing local, regional,
and national regulations. Contact authorities in the country of installation for
complete information regarding the licensing regime and operating restrictions for
that regulatory domain.
1.4.2 R&TTE Directive 1999/5/EC Statements
Installation
The transceiver and antenna equipment must be installed by a qualified
professional installer and must be installed in compliance with regional, national,
and local regulations. It is the responsibility of the system installer and/or system
operator to ensure the installed system does not exceed any operational constraints
identified by local regulations. Refer to the sections in this product User Guide for
detailed information about the correct installation steps to ensure power and frequency
settings are set correctly before connecting the antenna. Operation in the 3.4-3.6 GHz
band is subject to license. Authorities within the country of installation can provide
information regarding the licensing regime and restrictions.
