PREFACE
This manual provides basic installation instructions for a ADC®Spectrum 7.0
system.
Revision History
Initial release.
Document Cautions and Notes
Two types of messages, identified below, appear in the text:
CAUTION! Caution text indicates operations or steps that could cause personal injury, induce a
safety problem in a managed device, destroy or corrupt information, or interrupt or stop
services.
NOTE: Note text contains information about special circumstances.
General Safety Precautions
CAUTION! Wet conditions increase the potential for receiving an electrical shock when installing or
using electrically-powered equipment. To prevent electrical shock, never install or use
electrical equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm.
CAUTION! This equipment uses a Class 1 Laser according to FDA/CDRH rules. Laser radiation can
seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do
not look directly into the optical transceiver of any digital unit or exposure to laser
radiation may result. An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers. A
protective cap or hood MUST be immediately placed over any radiating transceiver or
optical fiber connector to avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure.
This practice also prevents dirt particles from entering the adapter or connector.
CAUTION! This system is an RF Transmitter and continuously emits RF energy. Maintain 3 foot (91.4
cm) minimum clearance from the antenna while the system is operating. Wherever
possible, shut down the RAN before servicing the antenna.
CAUTION! Always allow sufficient fiber length to permit routing of patch cords and pigtails without
severe bends. Fiber optic patch cords or pigtails may be permanently damaged if bent or
curved to a radius of less than 2 inches (5.1 cm).
CAUTION! Exterior surfaces of the Remote may be hot. Use caution during servicing.

Standards Certification
FCC: This equipment complies with the applicable sections of Title 47 CFR Part 15
(Host unit), Part 22 (800 MHz Cellular), Part 24 (1900 MHz - PCS), Part 90
(800/900 - SMR), and Part 27 (700 MHz, 2100 MHz - AWS).
IC: This equipment complies with the applicable sections of RSS-131. The term
“IC:” before the radio certification number only signifies that Industry Canada
Technical Specifications were met.
The Manufacturer's rated output power of this equipment is for single carrier
operation. For situations when multiple carrier signals are present, the rating
would have to be reduced by 3.5 dB, especially where the output signal is
re-radiated and can cause interference to adjacent band users. This power
reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by an
attenuator at the output of the device.
NOTE: To comply with Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) requirements, the maximum
composite output from the antenna cannot exceed 1000 Watts ERP (Cellular and SMR),
the antenna cannot exceed 1640 Watts EIRP (PCS), and the antenna must be permanently
installed in a fixed location that provides at least 6 meters (20 feet) of separation from all
persons.
NOTE: The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has developed guidelines for
evaluation of human exposure to RF emissions. The guidelines incorporate limits for
Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) for power density of transmitter operating at
frequencies between 300 kHz and 100 GHz. Limits have been set for portable, mobile, and
fixed equipment. ADC products fall in the category of fixed equipment; products intended
to be permanently secured and exposures are evaluated for distances greater than 20cm
(7-7/8”). Portable devices fall into exposures of less than 20cm, where SAR evaluations
are used.
Antenna gain is restricted to 1.5 W ERP (2.49 W EIRP) in order to satisfy RF exposure
compliance requirements. If higher than 1.5 W ERP, routine MPE evaluation is needed.
The antennas should be installed to provide at least 20cm from all persons to satisfy MPE
requirements of FCC Part 2, 2.1091.
UL/CUL: This will be installed in a restricted access location. This equipment
complies, per UL and CUL 50, Standard for Enclosures for Electrical Equipment.
FDA/CDRH: This equipment uses a Class 1 LASER according to FDA/CDRH Rules.
This product conforms to all applicable standards of 21 CFR Part 1040.
Caution: Modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

INTRODUCTION
InterReach Spectrum is an addition to the InterReach family of Distributed
Antenna Systems. It offers a flexible multi-operator/multi-protocol single platform
system supporting up to 8 Radio Frequency (RF) bands.
InterReach Spectrum has a Host Unit, an Expansion Unit (comprised of a DART
Remote Module (DRU), IF Expansion Module (IFEU), and Power Supply), and
Remote Amplifiers Units (RAUs). The Host, DRU and IFEU are intended for telecom
closet indoor use. The RAU is intended to be installed above a false ceiling in an
environmentally controlled office.
The standard configuration is:
•one Host Unit
•up to sixteen Expansion Units
•with each IFEU in the Expansion Unit supporting up to eight Main RAUs (one
per IFEU FWD/REV F connector paired ports).
