2.2 Installing the DeviceThis section describes AR150/200 installation scenarios and installation methods.

NOTE

The installation scenarios and installation methods of all AR150/200 series products are the same. Thissection uses AR207G-HSPA+7 as an example.

The antenna interfaces on a AR207G-HSPA+7 can connect to whip antennas and remote antennas.

l Whip antennas are directly installed on an AR router and are recommended when a router is deskinstalled or wall mounted.

l Indoor remote antennas have a 3 m long feed line. Indoor remote antennas are recommended whenan AR router is installed in a cabinet or rack, Indoor remote antennas need to be ordered separatelyif needed.

Placing Chassis on the Desk1. Before placing the AR150/200 on the desk, attach rubber pads onto each of the four recessed

corner areas on the bottom of the chassis.

2. AR207G-HSPA+7 needs two whip antennas, which must be vertical to the desktop. (Onlyapplies to 3G models).



15

Wall-Mounting the Chassis

CAUTIONl When wall-mounting the AR150/200, do not attach rubber pads to the chassis. If the rubber

pads have been attached, remove them.l It is inconvenient to connect ground cables and network cables after mounting the

AR150/200 chassis on the wall. Therefore, it is recommended that you connect cables beforemounting the chassis on the wall. If the chassis has been mounted on the wall, hold the chassiswhen connecting cables, preventing it from being detached from the wall. For the method ofconnecting cables, see 2.3 Connecting the Device.

l When connecting cables, do not make the front plastic panel of the chassis touch the groundto avoid damage.

l It is recommended that you wall-mount the AR150/200 with its front panel (with indicators)facing up and its rear panel (with interfaces) facing down.

l Use a ladder when mounting the chassis on the wall.

1. Use the template on the last page to mark the location for the two mounting screws and theupper, left, and right edges of the chassis on the wall.

2. The diameter of the mounting screws is 4 mm. Choose an appropriate drill bit accordingto the diameter of the mounting screws. Hammer the hollow wall anchors into the drilledholes. Screw the mounting screws into the wall anchors using a screwdriver. Leave thescrews protruding 2 mm from the wall.



16

3. Mount the chassis by aligning the mounting brackets on the back of the AR150/200 usingmounting screws. Install the antennas of the 3G model downwards and vertical to theground.

4. Connect the power adapter. Place the power adapter on a nearby horizontal surface, but donot hang it under the equipment.



17

Installing the Chassis in a Cabinet or Rack

CAUTIONl When installing the AR150/200 in a cabinet or rack, do not attach rubber pads to the chassis.

If the rubber pads have been attached, remove them.l The guide rails or trays are not necessary for the installation in a cabinet or rack because the

AR150/200 chassis can be fixed by rack-mounting brackets. Customers need to buy the rack-mounting brackets.

l It is recommended that you install the AR150/200 with its front panel (providing indicators)facing inside and its rear panel (providing interfaces) facing outside. The rack-mountingbrackets are installed at the sides of the rear panel (providing interfaces) facing outside.

l Ensure that the air exhaust vent is not obstructed in any way. Otherwise, the chassis mayoverheat.

1. Install two rack-mounting brackets. It is recommended that you install the rack-mountingbrackets close to the rear panel (providing interfaces). Install two rack-mounting brackets.It is recommended that you install the rack-mounting brackets close to the rear panel(providing interfaces).



18

2. Install two floating nuts on each side of the rack. The AR150/200 chassis is 1 U high. Themounting holes located on the rack-mounting brackets will be fixed to two mounting holeson the rack.

Floating nut mounting bar

3. Raise and hold the chassis by hands and move the chassis into the cabinet. Insert the panelscrews into the below floating nuts and keep a 2 mm space between the screws and mountingbar. Insert the rack-mounting ear pre-installation holes into the space. Fix panel screws intotwo floating nuts and keep 2 mm space between the screw and mounting rail. Raise andhold the chassis and move the chassis into the cabinet or rack, and place mounting holesof rack-mounting brackets into the space between the floating nut and panel screw.

2mm

4. Hold the chassis with one hand while using the other hand to secure the lower panel screwand then the upper one with a screwdriver.



19

5. You are advised to install antennas on top of the cabinet or chassis vertical to the ground.This step applies only to 3G models. Install the remote antenna on the 3G main interface.It is recommended that you place the antenna on the top of the cabinet or rack and is in thedirection vertical to the ground. This step is applicable to 3G models.

Remote Antenna

2.3 Connecting the DeviceThis section describes how to connect AR150/200 series products.

AR150/200 series of non-3G models have the same connection modes. The AR207V is used asan example.
