     110An indoor site (e.g., an IT equipment room) should be identified on campus that meets the requirements listed in Section 1.3 of the [attachment:BS_INSTALLATION.pdf NEC Installation Manual for Base Station (IMN:BS)], and particularly the following requirements:
    113111 * Equipment rack space to mount Base Station Indoor Unit.
    114 
    115  * Equipment rack space to mount Linux Servers contained in kit, currently 3 servers.
    116 
     112 * Equipment rack space to mount Linux Servers, 1 - 4 servers.
    117113 * Access to Outdoor Site, for power and fiber (signal) cables.  The use of a conduit is preferred, but otherwise the optical fiber (signal) cables must be mechanically protected.
    118 
    119114 * Access to building ground, to ground equipment racks and mounted equipment.
    120 
    121  * Access to -48VDC feeds for Base Station Outdoor Unit (max 4A) and Base Station Indoor Unit (max 8.3A), or else -48VDC rectifiers run from 110VAC feeds. 
    122 
    123  * Access to 110VAC feeds for Linux Servers, and possibly -48VDC rectifiers.  If possible, the 110VAC feeds should be protected with an  Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) that bridges short power gaps, to prevent disrupting the WiMAX testbed from the most common (short) power gaps.
    124 
     115 * Access to 110VAC feeds for Linux Servers, and -48VDC power supplies.  If possible, the 110VAC feeds should be protected with an  Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) that bridges short power gaps, to prevent disrupting the WiMAX testbed from the most common (short) power gaps.
    125116 * Access to available Ethernet (VLAN) switching capacity, if possible.
    126 
    127117 * Access to backbone network Layer 2 connection.
    128 
    129118 * Secure access, to prevent unauthorized people from disrupting operation.
    130119
    131 NOTE:  It is suggested that this process be started IMMEDIATELY, to assure that an appropriate indoor equipment room can be identifed.

    155139A pole must be provided and mounted at the outdoor site to safely and securely mount the Antenna and Base Station Outdoor Unit.
    156 
    157 ISSUE: Does the kit contain the pole? 
    158 
    159 See Sec 6.1 of the [attachment:BS_INSTALLATION.pdf NEC Installation Manual for Base Station (IMN:BS)]  fro outdoor site options, ans Sec 6.6 for pole options.
    160 
    161 See Sec 1.2 of [http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/WiMAXInteg/CampusInstallation/ANTENNA.pdf  NEC Sector Antenna Installation Manual], which specifies a pole diameter between 48mm and 120mm.
    162 
    163 For example, the pole may be suuported on a roof using an H bracket;  see Sec 6.1 of the [attachment:BS_INSTALLATION.pdf NEC Installation Manual for Base Station (IMN:BS)]
    164 
    165 ISSUE:  Does this require a PE to certify the safety?
    166
