PMP 450 Release NotesSafety and regulatory informationSafety and regulatory information This section describes important safety and regulatory guidelines that must be observed by personnel installing or operating PMP 450 equipment.Important safety informationTo prevent loss of life or physical injury, observe the safety guidelines in this section. Power lines Exercise extreme care when working near power lines. Working at heights Exercise extreme care when working at heights. Grounding and protective earth PMP 450 units must be properly grounded to protect against lightning. It is the users responsibility to install the equipment in accordance with national regulations. In the USA, follow Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984 (USA). In Canada, follow Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code. These codes describe correct installation procedures for grounding the outdoor unit, mast, lead-in wire and discharge unit, size of grounding conductors and connection requirements for grounding electrodes. Other regulations may apply in different countries and therefore it is recommended that installation of the outdoor unit be contracted to a professional installer. Powering down before servicing Always power down and unplug the equipment before servicing. Primary disconnect device The AP or SM units power supply is the primary disconnect device.pmp-0173 (September 2012)1 4. Safety and regulatory information PMP 450 Release NotesExternal cablesSafety may be compromised if outdoor rated cables are not used for connections that will be exposed to theoutdoor environment.RF exposure near the antennaRadio frequency (RF) fields will be present close to the antenna when the transmitter is on. Always turn off thepower to the PMP 450 unit before undertaking maintenance activities in front of the antenna.Minimum separation distancesInstall the AP/SM so as to provide and maintain the minimum separation distances from all persons.The minimum separation distances for each frequency variant are specified in Calculated distances and powercompliance margins on page 24.Important regulatory informationThe PMP 450 product is certified as an unlicensed device in frequency bands where it is not allowed to causeinterference to licensed services (called primary users of the bands).Radar avoidanceIn countries where radar systems are the primary band users, the regulators have mandated specialrequirements to protect these systems from interference caused by unlicensed devices. Unlicensed devices mustdetect and avoid co-channel operation with radar systems.Installers and users must meet all local regulatory requirements for radar detection. To meet theserequirements, users must set the correct region code during commissioning of the PMP 450. If this is not done,installers and users may be liable to civil and criminal penalties.Contact the Cambium helpdesk if more guidance is required.USA and Canada specific informationThe USA Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has asked manufacturers to implement special featuresto prevent interference to radar systems that operate in the 5250-5350 and 5470-5725 MHz bands. Thesefeatures must be implemented in all products able to operate outdoors in the UNII band. The use of the 5600 5650 MHz band is prohibited, even with detect-and-avoid functionality implemented.Manufacturers must ensure that such radio products cannot be configured to operate outside of FCC rules;specifically it must not be possible to disable or modify the radar protection functions that have beendemonstrated to the FCC.2 pmp-0173 (September 2012) 5. PMP 450 Release NotesSafety and regulatory information In order to comply with these FCC requirements, Cambium supplies variants of the PMP 450 for operation in the USA or Canada.

ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) guidelines for the general public. See the ICNIRP web site at http://www.icnirp.de/ and Guidelines for Limiting Exposure to Time- Varying Electric, Magnetic, and Electromagnetic Fields. Power density exposure limit Install the radios for the PMP 450 family of PMP wireless solutions so as to provide and maintain the minimum separation distances from all persons. The applicable power density exposure limit from the standards (see Human exposure to radio frequency energy on page 22) is: 10 W/m2 for RF energy in the 5.8 GHz frequency bands. Calculation of power densityThe following calculation is based on the ANSI IEEE C95.1-1991 method, as that provides a worst caseanalysis. Details of the assessment to EN50383:2002 can be provided, if required. Peak power density in the far field of a radio frequency point source is calculated as follows:pmp-0173 (September 2012)23 29.
