Motorola systems and equipment provide configurable security parameters to be set by the
operator based on their particular operating environment. Motorola recommends setting and
using these parameters following industry recognized security practices. Security aspects
to be considered are protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information
and assets. Assets include the ability to communicate, information about the nature of the
communications, and information about the parties involved.

In certain instances Motorola makes specific recommendations regarding security practices,


however the implementation of these recommendations and final responsibility for the security
of the system lies with the operator of the system.

Ground the equipment

To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and enclosure must be connected to an
electrical ground. If the equipment is supplied with a three-conductor ac power cable, the
power cable must be either plugged into an approved three-contact electrical outlet or used
with a three-contact to two-contact adapter. The three-contact to two-contact adapter must
have the grounding wire (green) firmly connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at
the power outlet. The power jack and mating plug of the power cable must meet International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) safety standards.

Refer to Grounding Guideline for Cellular Radio Installations – 68P81150E62.

Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere

Do not operate the equipment in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any
electrical equipment in such an environment constitutes a definite safety hazard.

Keep away from live circuits

Operating personnel must:


• not remove equipment covers. Only Factory Authorized Service Personnel or other
qualified maintenance personnel may remove equipment covers for internal subassembly,
or component replacement, or any internal adjustment.

• not replace components with power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous
voltages may exist even with the power cable removed.

• always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching them.

Do not service or adjust alone

Do not attempt internal service or adjustment, unless another person, capable of rendering first
aid and resuscitation, is present.

General Safety

Use caution when exposing or handling the CRT

Breakage of the Cathode–Ray Tube (CRT) causes a high-velocity scattering of glass fragments
(implosion). To prevent CRT implosion, avoid rough handling or jarring of the equipment. Only
qualified maintenance personnel wearing approved safety mask and gloves should handle the
CRT.

Do not substitute parts or modify equipment

Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute parts or
perform any unauthorized modification of equipment. Contact Motorola Warranty and Repair
for service and repair to ensure that safety features are maintained.

Potentially hazardous procedure warnings

Warnings, such as the example below, precede potentially hazardous procedures throughout
this manual. Instructions contained in the warnings must be followed. Employ all other safety
precautions necessary for the operation of the equipment in the operating environment.

Potentially hazardous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this


equipment. Use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting.

Certain metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) devices embody in their design a thin layer of
insulation that is susceptible to damage from electrostatic charge. Such a charge applied to the
leads of the device could cause irreparable damage.

These charges can be built up on nylon overalls, by friction, by pushing the hands into high
insulation packing material or by use of ungrounded soldering irons.

MOS devices are normally despatched from the manufacturers with the leads short circuited
together, for example, by metal foil eyelets, wire strapping, or by inserting the leads into
conductive plastic foam. Provided the leads are short circuited it is safe to handle the device.

Special handling techniques

In the event of one of these devices having to be replaced, observe the following precautions
when handling the replacement:

• Always wear a ground strap which must be connected to the electrostatic point on the
equipment.

• Leave the short circuit on the leads until the last moment. It may be necessary to replace
the conductive foam by a piece of wire to enable the device to be fitted.

• Do not wear outer clothing made of nylon or similar man made material. A cotton overall
is preferable.

• If possible work on an grounded metal surface or anti-static mat. Wipe insulated plastic
work surfaces with an anti-static cloth before starting the operation.

• All metal tools should be used and when not in use they should be placed on an grounded
surface.

• Take care when removing components connected to electrostatic sensitive devices. These
components may be providing protection to the device.

When mounted onto printed circuit boards (PCBs), MOS devices are normally less susceptible to
electrostatic damage. However PCBs should be handled with care, preferably by their edges
and not by their tracks and pins, they should be transferred directly from their packing to the
equipment (or the other way around) and never left exposed on the workbench.

Grounding Considerations

Above Ground For ground rings and the interconnection of internal and external ground
rings, #2 to #6 AWG may be used. For grounding of equipment and miscellaneous metallic
objects, #6 AWG minimum is required.

Exceptions Connection from an isolated ground bar (IGB) to master ground bar (MGB) is
accomplished using #2 to #6 AWG. The external ground bar (EGB) is grounded through a 2-inch
wide, 16-gauge copper strap, if available; otherwise, 2-#6 AWG wires can be used. If the #6
AWG wires are used, then they must be connected at opposite ends of the EGB and have a
minimum separation of 12-inches between them.

Below Ground All wire must be #2 AWG as a minimum. Ground rods are to be a minimum of
8 feet long and 5/8-inch in diameter. In the case of a deep basement next to the rod, the rod
must be long enough to extend 3 feet below the basement floor.

BCU Grounding

The BCU should be tied to a single point grounded to the system master ground. All
interconnect cables should be in metallic sealtight type conduit or solid shield RF cables. It is
recommended that these cables be run in raceways to reduce the loop dimensions of the cable
runs. This minimizes the effect of inducted currents caused by the intense electromagnetic
field of lightning current.

RF Head Grounding

All RF cables should be in metallic sealtight type conduit or solid shield RF cables. It is
recommended that these cables be run in raceways to reduce the loop dimensions of the cable
runs. This minimizes the effect of inducted currents caused by the intense electromagnetic field
of lightning current. A ground lug with captive screws is provided on the RF Head to attach
the ground wire.

Mounting Considerations

The RGPS Head requires specific mounting considerations in order to properly observe the
GPS satellites.

68P09277A59-6 3-11
Draft JAN 2007
Remote GPS Cable Chapter 3: Cable Descriptions

• The mounting pipe for the RGPS head should be mounted vertically with less than five
degrees of tilt.

• It is recommended that the RGPS head be installed using the supplied mounting mast and
mounting hardware. Care should be taken to ensure that the RGPS chassis does not come
into contact with any metal surfaces. Failure to properly isolate the RGPS chassis from
other conductive surfaces can lead to RGPS head failure. The supplied mounting hardware
has been designed to provide the required RGPS chassis isolation.

• Position the RGPS head to have an unobstructed view of the sky and to minimize the chance
of debris (leaves, dirt, snow, ice, etc.) accumulating on the radome of the RGPS head.

• The RGPS head must have a clear view of the sky, preferably to within 10 degrees of the
horizon in all directions. The total blockage of the sky (due to buildings, mountains, etc.)
should be less than 50%.

• Place the RGPS head as far away from the transmit antenna as possible to avoid RF
interference issues.

• Place the RGPS head at least 15 m away from lightning rods, towers, or structures that
attract lightning. RGPS head damage is usually not the result of a direct lightning strike,
but of a lightning strike on a nearby structure. Also, since a lightning rod is connected
to an earth ground, it can act as a shield and create a shadow that may block or reduce
the signal from a satellite.

• After the Base Control Unit (BCU) is powered up (approximately 15 minutes), check the
RGPS signal strengths with the gstatus command on the BCU MMI port.
An optimal installation will have at least one satellite (SV) with an RSSI value 50,
and at least four (4) satellites with RSSI values 45.

A minimal installation should have at least four (4) satellites with RSSI values 40.

• The RGPS head is rated for ambient air temperatures from –40°C (–40°F) to 75°C (167°F),
and has ratings for humidity, shock, waterproof, UV light resistance, vibrations, salt fog,
ESD, EMI, and altitude.

• The RGPS system used for the Access Point will support up to 1 km (3280 ft.) of overall
cable length from the RGPS head. If a long cable run needs to be broken into pieces,
minimize the number of breaks in the cable.

Objective

This section contains general information on the Radio Frequency Global Positioning System
receiver (RF GPS) antenna cabling. More commonly referred to as Local GPS. Refer to for

An SMA to N adapter is required; otherwise, a smaller diameter cable must be made with an
SMA connector on one end, with a maximum loss of <4.5 dB.

Surge Protection

RF GPS antenna requires lightning protection.

Mounting Considerations

Refer to Table 3-8 for Local GPS mounting considerations.

68P09277A59-6 3-13
Draft JAN 2007
RF GPS Cable Chapter 3: Cable Descriptions

Table 3-8 Local GPS Antenna Mounting Considerations

Description
1 The mounting pipe for the Local GPS Head should be mounted vertically with less
than five (5) degrees of tilt.
2 The Local GPS Head requires a clear view of the sky, preferably to within ten (10)
degrees of the horizon in all directions. The more sky that is observed increases
the number of potential satellites that can be tracked, resulting in better Local
GPS performance.
3 During normal operation, the Local GPS Head continuously tracks a minimum of
four (4) GPS satellites. However, it is theoretically possible to operate the BTS by
tracking only one (1) GPS satellite. Motorola does not recommend tracking only one
(1) GPS satellite unless there has been an accurate site survey.
4 Place the Local GPS Head where RF obstructions of the sky are minimal. The sky
includes everything to within ten (10) degrees of the horizon in all directions. RF
obstructions include buildings, towers, natural rock formations, snow, foliage, and
debris.

The mounting of the Local GPS head on antenna towers is not


recommended due to increased risk of damage due to lightning strikes. If
tower mounting is necessary the Local GPS head should mounted at the
lowest point possible and still maintain an unobstructed view of the sky.
5 Separate the Local GPS Head from other radiating sources. Excessive RF energy
can degrade the Local GPS Head’s ability to observe the GPS satellites. The Local
GPS Head receives on the GPS L1 frequency of 1575.42 MHz and incorporates
filters to minimize the effects of potential RF interference, however, strong radiants
can overwhelm the filters, thus degrading the units reception capability.
6 The Local GPS Head is rated for ambient air temperatures in the range -40 to +50
degrees C, and has ratings for humidity, shock, waterproofing, UV light resistance,
vibrations, salt, fog, ESD, EMI, and altitude.
7 An RF gain of between +10 dB and +26 dB should be provided to the Local GPS
receiver antenna input. The GPS antenna supplied in the CGDSGPSKITF4NM50
kit provides a nominal gain of +25 dB. The total signal loss from the
CGDSGPSKITF4NM50 antenna output and Local GPS antenna input must be less
than 15 dB at 1.575 GHz.
