Note: For the complete set of product safety statements, see LTE Remote Radio Head (RRH) - Safety Guidelines, 3MN-01725-
0002-RJZZA, available at http://support.alcatel-lucent.com/.

DANGER
Electric shock hazard
Working in severe weather can result in personal injury or death and damage to the equipment.
Never install or perform maintenance during severe weather (high winds, lightning, blizzards, hurricane etc.).

WARNING
Falling-object hazard
If the B25 RRH4x30 falls while being lifted, it can result in personal injury or death and damage to the equipment.
Keep the area beneath the B25 RRH4x30 and the immediate surrounding area completely clear of personnel,
equipment, vehicles, etc. at all times during the lifting and moving operation.

WARNING
Overhead-load hazard
Hoisting points and apparatus can break, severely damaging the B25 RRH4x30 when it is being lifted to its final
mounting position.
Ensure that all hoisting points and lifting apparatus are defect free and properly attached before lifting the
B25 RRH4x30.

WARNING
Fall hazard
Falls can occur when working at heights resulting in serious personal injury or death.
To prevent a fall when working at heights (ladder, scaffold, manlift, roof, etc.) follow safe work practices and wear
appropriate fall protection equipment.

CAUTION
Lifting hazard
Lifting this equipment by yourself can result in injury due to the size and weight of the equipment.
Always use at least two people or a lifting device to move or position this equipment.

CAUTION
Laceration hazard
The mounting bracket components may have sharp edges and burrs and contact may cause cuts and lacerations.
Beware of sharp edges and burrs, especially when manually transporting or hoisting the B25 RRH4x30.
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.

CAUTION
RF hazard
RF exposure in excess of applicable limits can result in personal injury.
The B25 RRH4x30s are designed and installed in order that they are compliant with the exposure guidelines laid down
by 47 CFR 1.1307 to 1.1310.
For all staff that are required to work in close proximity to the equipment, for example maintenance personnel, contact
with the antenna should be avoided. No such persons shall stay in front of the operating product’s antenna at a
distance of less than 2.5 m and 0.6 m on each side of the antenna.
No other persons shall stay in front of the operating product’s antenna at a distance of less than 8.5 m and 3 m on each
side of the antenna.
Workers equipped with personal medical electronic devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids, shall consult the
manufacturer's instructions and consult their occupational health practitioner.

Always observe the laser warning instructions.
NOTICE
Protect fiber cable
Mishandling fiber optic cable can result in damaged and non-
functioning cables.
The optical cable is very sensitive, take the maximum
precaution when installing it. The optical fiber should be
protected in solid pipe. Do not use cable ties on the fiber
cable. Do not cut this cable on site, excess length should be
coiled inside the eNodeB. The fiber optic connector should be
protected by a cap when not being used. Respect the bending
radius during the manipulation of optical cable (82.5 mm).
