Example

A34
Specify the name and full contact details (includung after-hours) for the person responsible for the site (site owner representative).
A35
1) Specify all site access and security procedures. 2) Check if the site owner has any preferences or requirements on the selection of riggers (contractors) for on-tower work.
A38
Are there any obvious health and safety issues at the site, such as RF hazards (radiation from installed antennas), electrical hazards, slippery surfaces, chemical hazards etc.
A40
Is there adequate on-site storage space for the equipment to be installed, and how secure is it.
A41
Confirm that all required permits are available for inspection (site access, local authority, safety…)
A46
Specify the type of support structure.
A49
Antenna to the left or right of the pole mount viewed from the rear of the antenna.

Direct mount or remote mount. If remote, specify the mount location for the ODU, the ODU to antenna installation kit details and any specail support required for the waveguide/cable to prevent wind flexing.
A55
Specify the type of fastening to be used and its spacing. Note any special requirements to prevent wind flexing at any point on the cable run. Also note any special protection measures such as running inside conduit on a roof-mount installation.
A56
Specify the type and location of suppressors. Note any special installation requirements.
A57
Note any special grounding requirements for the cable, suppressors and ODU. Also any remedial site grounding work that may have been picked up during the site survey.

To install and commission a new non-protected link between site A and site B. Site A is an existing site owned by RadioCorp, where we are leasing space on their tower and in the main equipment room. Site B is a new site, where we are leasing rooftop space for the antenna and a small room off the top stairwell to house the indoor equipment. The 8xE1 circuits provided will be used to extend cellphone coverage for the upper city area. Installation of the associated cell equipment may coincide with this link installation.

An existing PSU is to be used at site A. A new PSU is to be installed at site B to serve both the link and the cell radio equipment. A tripod antenna mount, cabinet rack, power supply panel and a NxE1 patch panel is to be installed at site B. The tripod is to be anchor bolted to the concrete roof and is to be grounded to the internal building ground. All equipment for site B can be taken to the top floor using the lifts.

Equipment provided by company

a) Radio equipment complete with antennas, IDU/ODU cable, connectors, lightning surge suppressors, cable ground kits, waterproofing kits, trib cables. b) Existing cabinet rack and power source for site A.c) Pipe mount kit for site A.d) 48Vdc 30A Revo model XC PSU and battery set for site B.e) E1 patch panel for site B.f) 3m galvanised steel tripod antenna mount for site B.

a) 40RU cabinet rack with lockable front and rear doors for site B. Beeco model 34.b) 2RU 10 amp rack-mounting circuit-breaker panel complete with three 10A circuit breakers for site B.c) Power and ground wire for use within the equipment room.d) 0 AWG ground wire to ground the rooftop mount at site B to the building ground at the top of the stairwell.e) Miscellaneous including plastic conduit, protective paste, crimps, fasteners, anchor bolts and cable ties.

Site locked from 6pm to 7.30am. Afterhours must be arranged with Jay Wright.

Card and password required. Contact Ray Nolan.

Conatct Jay Wright. When on-site, visitor cards must be displayed at all times. Use rear service access for all equipment movements.

Jay Wright will arrange a park at the rear of the building.

Tower carries multiple TV, FM and link antennas and therefore presents radiation hazards. Agree a time and date with Ray Nolan to review on-site health and safety.

This is a particulary exposed site and is subject to strong winds. None within the building. There is space against the north fence to temporarily locate larger items such as the antenna coax.

Inside against the north wall of the equipment room.

No special permits required, providing all equipment is taken up via the lifts or stairwells. If the tripod antenna mount has to be hoisted to the roof, contact Jay Wright to arrange the neccessary safety zones.

3m tripod manufactured by ACE Engineering. Tripod data is attached ti this datapack. It is to be installed at the location shown on the roofplan attached. It is to be anchor bolted to the concrete roof using 10mm SS bolts. Ground the tripod using 0AWG green wire to the building ground bar inside the stairwell head. Wire to be strapped to the ODU cable conduit using black ties.

Off leg B at 22M. Position in line with the mounts above and below.

To the right of the pole mount as viewed from the rear of the antenna.

To the right of the pole mount as viewed from the rear of the antenna.

Black cable ties at not more than 0.9m spacing on the tripod. Over the roof to the stairwell head, run the cable inside 20mm grey conduit, with the conduit saddle-fastened to the concrete roof using nylon rawplugs and SS screws. Run the conduit as shown on the roof plan.

Apply a physical loopback to each trib in turn at the Site B patch panel and confirm using a BER tester at the Site A patch panel.

Run an overnight BER test on looped circuit 1.Monitor Site A and Site B G.826 error count overnight.

Reduce the local Tx power until the remote Rx indicates a 10-6 threshold alarm. (For split-mount radios this test may not be possible due to insufficient Tx power adjustment range and an inability to insert additional attenuation).

Confirm correct setting. Confirm normal operation by noting existing Tx power and then disabling Rx at the remote end and checking that local Tx power increases to ATPC max. (For a protected link first apply a protection switch lock).

Confirm correct setting and operation for any Tx power & Rx level alarm limits.

Confirm that the expected alarm and status LEDs occur during the commissioning tests.

Additional Comments:

A17
Check antenna fastening onto the pole-mount and the pole-mount fastening onto the structure.
A19
Check that the ODU is secured correctly.
A22
Ensure there are no unsupported sections of cable, which may flex in the wind.
A25
Check for correct location weatherproofing and grounding.
A26
Check that ground attachment points have been protected with the agreed anti-corrosive/conductive grease or paint preparations.
A27
If IDU requires ventilation clearances, also check that these are provided.
A29
Check grounding integrity all the way to the master ground - not just to an existing rack ground bar.
A30
Check power supply load capacity and the integrity of the cabling from the power supply to the IDU. Do not rely on a check just to a power pick-up point in the rack. Ensure there is no disconnect device (switch etc) in the ground supply wire.
A33
Check to see that no front panel alarms are present and that the craft tool confirms no active alarms.
