    Safety Precautions

    Thunderstorms

    Do not work with electrical current in elevated or

    exposed locations during a thunderstorm.

    Extreme weather conditions

    The RTN 310 is usually installed outdoors. If weather

    conditions are extreme during an installation, personnel

    should follow local guidelines and regulations to

    safeguard personal health and safety.

    Microwave

    High-power radio frequency signals are harmful.

    Avoid exposure to transmissions from the antenna

    of working microwave equipment that has this

    radiation warning symbol ( ). If you install or

    maintain an antenna on a tower or pole bearing

    multiple antennas, avoid exposure to radiation from

    the other antennas.

    Moving and hoisting heavy objects

    To move or hoist heavy objects, use appropriate

    equipment and adhere to the following guidelines:

    Working in high places

    The RTN 310 is usually installed in an elevated location,

    such as on a tower or on the roof of a building. Adhere

    to these guidelines for installations in elevated locations:

    Installation personnel must be properly trained and qualified, and meet health requirements.

    Installation personnel should wear helmets and safety belts and should work in pairs or teams so

    assistance is always available.

    Do not work in high places during thunderstorms, blizzards, gales, or other extreme weather. When

    working outdoors, installation personnel should wear

    clothes and gloves appropriate to weather conditions,

    and footwear that protects against slipping.

    Hoisting tools should be tested before use.

    All installation personnel and visitors onsite must wear helmets.

    All personnel should wear helmets and

    protective clothes, gloves, and shoes.

    Move heavy objects along a flat obstacle-free

    path.

    Do not lift heavy objects by hand. Use

    appropriate equipment instead.

    When items are hoisted, be sure those standing

    nearby are safe from falling objects.

    Use hoisting tools properly. Do not exceed load

    allowances to prevent damage to pulleys or

    slings.

    High temperature

    If the ambient temperature reaches 55, the surface temperature of the RTN 310 and PI panel may exceed

    70. Wear protective gloves if you must handle the RTN 310 or power injector (PI) panel. A high-

    temperature warning label ( ) is attached to the

    RTN 310 and PI panel.

    Safety Precautions

    Corrosion

    Anti-corrosion measures are required if the RTN 310 is installed in an area prone

    to corrosion. Contact your Huawei representative office for details. A location is

    corrosion-prone if it is:

    within 3.7 km of the ocean or a salt water lake

    within 3 km of a heavy pollution source such as a smelting factory or coal

    mine

    within 2 km of a medium pollution source such as a chemical, rubber, or

    electroplating plant

    within 1 km of a light pollution source such as a food/leather processing plant

    or heating boilers

    Power over Ethernet

    If the RTN 310 uses power over Ethernet, connect the RJ45 connector that has a P&E

    label on the P&E cable to the P&E port on the PI. No other cable is appropriate.

    Always hold an insulated part of the P&E cable. Never touch the RJ45 connector.

    Do not touch the pins inside the P&E port on the PI with your hands or a conductor.

    Be sure to connect the power cables of the PI correctly to the positive and negative

    terminals of the power supply device (see circled No.1 in the figure below). To prevent

    damage to power cables or devices caused by short-circuits, install a circuit breaker on

    the negative terminal of the power supply device (see circled No.2 in the figure below).

    The recommended fuse capacity is 6 A to 12 A.

    Do not install or remove a live P&E cable.

    Power over Ethernet supplies power over a maximum distance of 100 m.

    PWR

    DC power

    If the RTN 310 uses DC power, do not install or remove a live

    power cable. Any contact between the power cable core and a

    conductor can generate electric arc or sparks, which may cause

    fire or eye injury.

    Connect the power cables correctly to the positive and negative

    terminals of the power supply device (see circled No.1 in the

    figure below). To prevent damage to power cables or devices

    caused by short-circuits, install a circuit breaker on the negative

    terminal of the power supply device (see circled No.2 in the figure

    below). The recommended fuse capacity is 6 A to 12 A.

    DC supplies power over a maximum distance of 300 m.

    1. Cover unused ports with caps.

    2. Different methods can be used to change the polarization direction of antennas. If the method described in this document is not suitable for the type of antenna you have, use the method described in the installation manual delivered with your antennas.

    3. The polarization direction of antennas is vertical by default. If the planned polarization direction is horizontal, change the polarization direction to horizontal.

    4. If an antenna with a diameter of 0.3 m or 0.6 m is used in a direct mount and 1+0 scenario, you may install the RTN 310 on the antenna and then hoist them both into position on the tower. If an antenna with a diameter larger than 0.6 m is used, hoist the antenna into

    position separately to avoid overloading the hoisting rope.

    5. Before installing a P&E cable, bind the cable section that links the cable connector to the pole. This will protect the cable connector from damage. Be sure that the length of cable running from the binding point to the RTN 310 is sufficient to attach the cable connector

    to the P&E port on the RTN 310. Treat outdoor fibers in a similar manner to protect them from damage.

    2. Different methods can be used to change the polarization direction of antennas or hybrid couplers. If the method described in this document is not suitable for the type of antenna or hybrid coupler you have, use the method described in the installation manual delivered

    with your antennas or hybrid couplers.

    3. The polarization direction of antennas and hybrid couplers is vertical by default. If the planned polarization direction is horizontal, change the polarization direction to horizontal.

    4. If an antenna with a diameter of 0.3 m or 0.6 m is used in a direct mount and 2+0 scenario, you may install the RTN 310 and a hybrid coupler on the antenna and then hoist them both into position on the tower. If an antenna with a diameter larger than 0.6 m is used,

    hoist the antenna into position separately to avoid overloading the hoisting rope.

    5. Before installing a P&E cable, bind the cable section that links the cable connector to the pole. This will protect the cable connector from damage. Be sure that the length of cable running from the binding point to the RTN 310 is sufficient to attach the cable connector to

    the PWR port on the RTN 310. Treat the GE cascading fibers in a similar manner to protect them from damage.

    Secure the remote antenna and loosen/tighten the level adjustment screw to move the

    antenna horizontally.

    If three signal peaks are tracked, adjust the azimuth of the antenna until the received

    signal level (RSL) reaches the peak value at position 2.

    If two signal peaks are tracked, adjust the azimuth of the antenna until the RSL reaches

    the middle between positions 4 and 5. Then, adjust the pitch angle of the antenna using

    the elevation adjustment screw until the three signal peaks on the line AA' appear. Finally,

    adjust the azimuth of the antenna until the RSL reaches the peak value at position 2.

    If one signal peak is tracked, adjust the azimuth of the antenna until the RSL reaches the

    middle between positions 6 and 7. Then, adjust the pitch angle of the antenna using the

    elevation adjustment screw until the three signal peaks on the line AA' appear. Finally,

    adjust the azimuth of the antenna until the RSL reaches the peak value at position 2.

    2 Aligning Dual-Polarized Antennas

    Power off the vertically-polarized RTN 310s and power on the

    horizontally-polarized RTN 310s at both ends of a radio link. This

    ensures that the antennas at both ends transmit horizontally-

    polarized signals.

    Adjust the azimuth and pitch angle of the antennas at both ends by

    referring to the description in "Aligning Single-Polarized Antennas.

    " Ensure that the main lobes of the horizontally-polarized signals

    are aligned.

    Loosen/tighten the elevation adjustment screw to move the local antenna vertically.

    Adjust the pitch angle until the RSL reaches the peak within the tracked range.

    Repeat Steps 3 to 4 to ensure that three signal peaks are tracked in horizontal and

    vertical directions. When the local RSL reaches the maximum peak value, secure the

    local antenna.

    Adjust the remote antenna to ensure that the RSL at the local end and the RSL at

    the remote end reach the peak value.

    Tighten all screws on both antennas after the alignment is complete.

    If an OMT is used to connect the RTN 310s to the antenna in direct mount mode, align the antennas using

    the method for aligning single-polarized antennas. If flexible waveguides are used to connect the RTN 310s

    to the antenna in split mount mode, follow the procedure below to align the antennas.

    NOTE

    1

    Use a multimeter to measure the RSL (P1) on the RSSI port of the horizontally-polarized

    RTN 310 at the local end.

    Power on the vertically-polarized RTN 310 at the local end. Use a multimeter to

    measure the RSL on the RSSI port of the vertically-polarized RTN 310. Release the

    feed holders and turn the feed gently until the RSL reaches the minimum value (P2).

    The calculated XPD1 (XPD1 = P1 - P2) cannot be less than 30 dB. Make a note of the

    current angle (D1) of the feed.

    Power off the horizontally-polarized RTN 310s and power on the vertically-polarized

    RTN 310s at both ends of the radio link. Adjust the azimuth and pitch angle of the

    antennas by referring to the description in "Aligning Single-Polarized Antennas." Ensure

    that the main lobes of the vertically-polarized signals are aligned.

    Refer to Steps 3 and 4 to ensure that the calculated XPD2 (XPD2 = P3 - P4) is greater

    than or equal to 30 dB. Make a note of the current angle (D2) of the feed.

    Repeat Steps 1 to 6 to adjust the feed gently (ranging from D1 to D2), and ensure that

    XPD1 and XPD2 are greater than or equal to 30 dB.

    Tighten all screws on both antennas after the alignment is complete.
