  2. Tighten the ODU grounding bolt to a torque of 5 Nm (3.9 lb-ft).

Mounting the ODU on the mast or wall

Select the most appropriate bracket mounting arrangement from the options listed in the Mounting bracket options. Refer to individual procedures below for each of the options:

  • V1000 pole mount
  • V1000 wall mount
  • V1000 adjustable pole mount
  • V3000 precision bracket
  • V3000 tilt bracket assembly
  • V3000 tilt bracket assembly with band clamps
  • V5000 pole mount bracket
  • V5000 wall mount bracket

V1000 Pole mount
The V1000 CN can be installed to a pole using the supplied mounting plate and jubilee clip. Follow the below instructions to mount V1000 to the pole:

  1. Insert the hose clamps through the mounting plate and clamp to the pole by applying 3.0 Nm torque.

V3000 Fixed Wireless Client Node - Figure 72+

  2. Insert the radio into the mounting plate on the pole.
    Figure 73: Inserting the radio

V1000 Wall mount
Follow the below instructions to mount V1000 on the wall:

  1. Fix the mounting plate (supplied with the V1000 ODU) securely to a vertical wall, using suitable fixings.
    Note
    Fixing hardware is not supplied with the V1000.

  2. Slide the V1000 ODU onto the mounting plate from above, ensuring that the spring clip in the mounting plate clicks into place on the radio.

V1000 Alignment
The V1000 CN requires minimal effort to align as the internal antenna can beam steer +/- 45 degrees in azimuth and +/- 20 degrees in elevation from boresight. If the unit is installed with the remote node visible within this range, no further adjustment is required.
V3000 Precision bracket
The precision bracket is used to mount the cnWave V3000 CN on a vertical pole, providing fine adjustment up to 18° in azimuth and +/-30° in elevation for accurate alignment of the V3000. The precision bracket is compatible with pole diameters in the range of 25 mm to 70 mm (1 inch to 2.75 inches). Note that the Jubilee clamp allows for larger diameter poles and the range depends on the clamps used.
These instructions illustrate the procedure for assembling and using the precision bracket. The mounting of the optional alignment telescope also explained.
