iPASOLINK 1000: INSTALLATION NWD-118789-04E
1. OVERVIEW
The standard installation is summarized in this section. Following shows the typical
installation work flow and guides to IDU installation, ODU installation, Antenna
(ANT) installation, waveguide connection and coaxial cable connections. The
installation flow chart is shown below.
This product is a part of the radio link system, and is intended to be connected with a
external antenna.
This product should be installed and operated by skilled personnel.
After the installation, the system should be ensured to comply with the relevant limits
for general public exposure specified as basic restrictions or reference levels in the
council Recommendation 1999/519/EC.

NOTE: Procedure below uses IDU for example.
Procedure 4-1 Methods of Mounting IDU
1 Supporting brackets are attached on the front of IDU.
2 Mount IDU onto the 19-inch Rack. Example below uses EIA 310-D [IEC-60297]
Rack:
Attach and half-tighten two screws (with spring and flat washers) for the bottom
side (or for the upper side if the rack is IEC-60917) of the shelf.
Hook the bottom-side (or upper-side if the rack is IEC-60917) keyholes of the
flanges onto these screws ().
Secure all four screws (with spring and flat washers) including half-tightened
screws ().

NWD-118789-04E iPASOLINK 1000: INSTALLATION
3 Since the forced-air cooling fans are built in, IDU does not require spaces for the
heat dissipation on its top, bottom and rear when installing onto a 19-inch Rack.
However, to install cables, the space of about 1U [1.75 inches; 44.45 mm] each
above and below the IDU is required.

4.2 Replace FAN Unit
Notes
1. NEC recommends that FAN unit be replaced approximately every three
years, regardless of its condition.
2. If a FAN alarm occurs, replace the FAN unit immediately.
3. The FAN unit is hot-swappable, which allows the replacement without
shutting down the system.
4. When replacing a FAN, a new FAN unit to be mounted should be
prepared near.
Procedure 4-2 Replace FAN Unit
1 Dismount the defective FAN
Proceed with the illustrated steps in reverse:
Step 2: Using the screwdriver, loosen the screw.
Step 1: Holding the screw, pull the unit out.
2 Mount a new FAN
Proceed with the illustrated steps in a regular order:
Step 1: Insert the new FAN unit.
Step 2: Using the screwdriver, tighten the screw.

4.4 Replace MC-M Card
Procedure 4-4 Replace MC-M Card
NOTE: Before starting the procedure, check if the MC-M Card to be removed has its
associated MC-M:
If the MC-M Card to be removed is unprotected, or is protected but the last remaining of
the two, turn off the power of MODEM-A Card before starting the procedure.
If the MC-M Card has its associated MC-M configuring the protection group, ensure that
the MC-M to be removed is on the Standby mode, and in the OOS status.
1 Dismount the defective MC-M card:
Using the screwdriver, loosen two screws.
Pull two ejectors on the card outward.

Safety Guideline for Microwave Radiation Hazard
The Microwave and Millimeter-wave that iPASOLINK series are treating is very
small radiation level and never been reported to effect human health. But advanced
countries about health hazard have started to regulate the radiation levels. In case of
EU country, it is specified by EN50385. In order to keep the regulation, the operator
shouldn't work at near parabolic antenna during transmitter activating. Especially the
area in side to front of antenna shows higher radiation level. (Please see below figure
and calculation sample 1.)
On the other hand, in case of front side of antenna, the power density becomes high
level along antenna beam. Therefore the user of this system should pay attention not
to radiate the beam against humans any time. (Please refer below calculation sample
2.)
Figure 11-2 Hazard Area of Radiation
In addition, the power density and field strength level is calculated by equation
below.
Where:
P = Output power of ODU (dBm),
G = Antenna Gain (dBi),
(in consideration of the angle from antenna)
K = Reflection factor = 2.56 (given),
R = Distance between human and antenna (m)

Calculation example 1, (90 degree side of antenna)
PASOLINK = 18 GHz/+23 dBm,
Antenna diameter = 0.6 m,
0 degree antenna gain = 39 dBi,
90 degrees side antenna gain = 24 dBi, (90 degrees attenuation = 63 dB),
Distance = 0.1 m
Power density S (mW/cm

) = 0.0016 s 0.01 (European safety guideline)
Calculation example 2, (0 degree, front side of antenna)
PASOLINK = 7 GHz/+27 dBm,
Antenna diameter = 1.8 m,
0 degree antenna gain = 40 dBi,
Distance = 100 m
Power density S (mW/cm
