3 Installation
3.1 General
It is recommended that installation personnel read this section in its entirety prior to installing the
BridgeWave System. During a particular phase of installation, the user may refer directly to the
applicable subsection.
The Installation section is comprised of seven subsections covering the procedures and guidelines
for installing the BridgeWave Radio System.
Subsections 3.3 through 3.4 contain information necessary to prepare for the equipment installation.
Subsections 3.5 through 3.8 covers equipment installation procedures.
Subsections 3.9 and 3.10 contain information necessary for aligning the antenna.
3.2 Equipment Unpacking
The radio system equipment will arrive in two boxes—one box for the low band radio and one box
for the high band radio. Locate the correct box (low band or high band) before beginning
installation by checking the label on the outside of the box or on the radio itself. It is recommended
that the shipping cartons and packing materials be retained in the event that it is necessary to return
any equipment.
The radiated polarity can be identified on unpacked radios by the
first letter of the polarity V or H (Vertical or Horizontal) on the
top of the unit chassis or by the polarization labels. See Figure
3.6­1 and 3.6­2 for further details.
