Determining the Reference Station Site
P/N 7010-0935
2-3
All project team members should have a clear understanding of the
project’s purpose, goals, and application. Once the goals of the
application have been identified, preliminary sites can be chosen, and
then narrowed down to the most appropriate site.
Perform a Site Inspection for the
Net-G3A Reference Station
When determining the location in which to place the Net-G3A,
consider the relative safety of the physical location for both the
receiver and personnel. Successful installation and operation of the
reference station should meet the following guidelines:
• Location of the site and the receiver
The building site should have a clear view of the sky with no
reflective objects or surfaces in the vicinity.
The location of the receiver Receiver should be indoors,
placed on a flat surface (such as a table or stable shelf),
provide free access to the receiver’s front and rear panels, and
be easy to reach and handle for maintenance activities.
• Equipment connectivity and antenna cabling system
The site should provide appropriate routings for connecting
the various equipment. Cables should be unobtrusive, but
easy to maintain.
For proper equipment connectivity and functionality, use only
original and dedicated cables. Consider the following
recommendations when connecting your devices:
– Label each cable.
On all cable ends, securely attach a sticker with a cable
identifier.
– Do not exceed standard cable lengths.
The cable length should not exceed the maximum
distance specified in appropriate standards for the cable
being used.
– Keep all cable connectors free of dust, dirt, and
contaminants.
