4.1.2 Step 2: Materials Supplied by Installer
Installation of the Ellipse System equipment requires additional equipment and materials
supplied by the installer. The following list is a guideline only, and additional materials
may be required based on local conditions at each installation site.
Table 12: Installation: Installer Supplied Materials
The equipment cabinet must be rated for adequate protection against
ingress of water, dust, etc. and accommodate the size and heating/cooling
requirements of the system.
Mounting space allocated for the PoE power adapter. Must accommodate
2 m (6') AC power cable or DC power cables a required and routing of
Ethernet cable from PoE to local Ethernet network access point.
The following features are required:
- Ground block for grounding equipment, shielding on conductive cables,
and lightning protection devices
- DIN mounting rail with adequate spacing for equipment
- Weatherproof port glands for the Ethernet and power cables
- Security locking device to restrict access
- Fused sector controller blocks and surge protection for power input
The cabinet mast must be rated for weight and wind loading of the
equipment cabinet and wiring. The mast must be adequately grounded.
The antenna mast must be rated for weight and wind loading of the Ellipse
sector controller. The mast must be adequately grounded.
A short CAT-5e RJ-45 jumper cable is required to connect from the PoE to
the surge arrestor device at the ingress point of the cabinet. Typical length
610 mm (2 ft).
The installer must provide 10-60 VDC or 120/240 VAC power to the
cabinet (based on site requirements). The DC-DC PoE power injector
sector controller block accepts 12-22 AWG wire.

Materials
Materials for securing cables to the masts, protecting cables from
abrasion, etc. including suggested weatherproofing materials:
Scotch 2200 series of vinyl mastic rolls
Scotch 130C linerless rubber splicing tape
3M Scotch super 88 electrical tape
The site installation must include a master grounding system to be used
with all equipment. The wire gage must meet recommended industry
standards and include eye sector controllers for secure connection to
system equipment.
i) Precision set of screwdrivers, cutter pliers, and other common
installation tools.
ii) Portable computer for initial Ellipse System configuration.
iii) A CAT-5e RJ-45 jumper cable to connect the Ellipse to the PC.
* Note: cabinet and Ellipse system may be mounted on the same mast (based on site
survey results).
