Attach the boot cover, L bracket, and U bolt to the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00 , as shown in Figure 1-2.  Figure 1-2. Attaching the Boot Cover to the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  3. To power the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00 : – Connect one end of a Category 5 Ethernet LAN cable to the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  Ethernet port. – Connect the other end of the cable to the port labeled CPE on the supplied PoE adapter. – Connect the supplied AC adapter to the PoE adapter. – Plug the AC adapter into an electrical outlet. The LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  performs its self-test for about 30 seconds. Then the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  LEDs show the status of the unit (see section 1.6.2).   Do not connect a device other than the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  to the CPE port.
Installing the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00 Libra MAX-SS  5X00TR-WMX-5.8 Outdoor Subscriber Unit User's Guide 5 Network equipment that does not support PoE can be damaged permanently by connecting to a PoE source. Most Ethernet interfaces on PCs, laptop/notebook computers, and other network equipment (such as Ethernet switches and routers) do not support PoE.  4. If your unit has an external antenna, turn off power to the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00 , then attach the antenna to the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  antenna connector. Mount the antenna in a location that provides the best communication with the base station.   Be sure to turn off power to the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  before mounting the antenna.  5. Use the Ground terminal on the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  to ground the unit (for best practices, see section 1.4.1).

Installing the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00 Libra MAX-SS  5X00TR-WMX-5.8 Outdoor Subscriber Unit User's Guide 7 1.4.1 Installation Best Practices Observe the following best practices when installing the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00 .  The LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  10/100 Ethernet port auto-senses the cable connected to it and adjusts automatically. The Ethernet connector is protected with a weatherproof housing. Pin assignments for this connector are shown in Table 1-1.  Always try to run the Category 5 cable and LMR inside the mounting pole whenever possible. This helps to insulate the cable form any air surges.  Keep all runs as straight as possible. Never put a full loop into the cables.  The LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  antenna’s grounding system must be installed according to Article 810-15, 810-20, and 810-21 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1993 or applicable National or Local Wiring Codes / Rules. Test all grounds to ensure that they are using a proper Ground. If you use an electrical socket for Ground, use a socket tester, such as Radio Shack 22-1412. We recommend you obtain a copy of the National Electric Code Guide and follow its guidelines. If you are in doubt or have questions about the antenna grounding system, contact a local licensed electrician. Alternatively, you can drive your own rod and bond it to the house Ground; this way, you will know that at least one rod is correctly grounded in the system.   Never attach a Grounding wire when the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00  is powered. If the Ground is to be attached to an existing electrical circuit, turn off the circuit before attaching the wire.  Never install radio equipment, such as the LIBRA MAX-SS 5X00 , during an electrical storm. In addition, to protect your system against damage from lightning, design the system so it does not attract lightning (it cannot repel lightning, either). National, state, and local codes are designed to protect life, limb, and property and must always be obeyed. When in doubt, consult local and national electrical codes or contact an electrician or professional trained in the design of grounding systems. Table 1-1.

 55  Compliance Information This device has been designed to operate with the antennas having a maximum gain of 32 dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 32 dB are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms. 5 GHz Antennas  TR-5.8-32DB-ANT  - 32 dBi Dish Antenna  TR-GD58-26 - 26 dBi Grid Antenna 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.   The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the band 5725-5825 MHz) to comply with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for point-to-point and non point-to-point operation as appropriate, as stated in section A9.2(3) of RSS-210 June 2007.   In addition, users should also be cautioned to take note that high-power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and these radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication. This device must be installed so that there is a minimum of 139 cm between the antenna and any person.
