Safety Precautions
Thunderstorms
Do not work with electrical current or work in elevated or exposed locations during a thunderstorm.
Extreme weather conditions
RTN 360 is usually installed outdoors. If weather conditions are extreme during an installation,
personnel should follow the related local guidelines and regulations to safeguard personal health
and safety.
Elevated locations
RTN 360 is usually installed in an elevated location, for example, on the rooftop of a building. For installation
in elevated locations, installation personnel must:
• Have the proper training and qualifications, and meet health requirements.
• Wear helmets, safety belts, and anti-slip footwear.
• Wear clothing and gloves appropriate to weather conditions.
• Work in teams of two or more.
• Test hoisting tools before use.
• Avoid installation during extreme weather conditions, such as during thunderstorms, blizzards, or gales.
In addition, all site visitors must wear helmets.
Microwave
High-power radio frequency signals are harmful. Avoid exposure to transmission from the antennas of
microwave equipment that has the radiation warning symbol (
performing maintenance on an antenna located on a tower that has multiple antennas, avoid exposure
to radiation from other antennas.
High temperature
If the ambient temperature reaches 55°C, the surface temperature of an RTN 360 may exceed 70°C.
Therefore, wear protective gloves when handling the RTN 360. A high-temperature warning label (
attached to each RTN 360.

Corrosion
Anti-corrosion measures are required if an RTN 360 is installed in a location that is prone to corrosion. Contact the
local Huawei office for details. A location is prone to corrosion if it is:
•Within 3.7 km of an ocean or a salt water lake
• Within 3 km of a heavy pollution source, such as a smelting factory or coal mine
• Within 2 km of a medium pollution source, such as a chemical, rubber, or electroplating plant
• Within 1 km of a light pollution source, such as a food/leather processing plant or heating boiler
Port protection
•
Fasten PG covers onto the network ports of an RTN
360, and protect unused ports with caps.
•
Retain removed caps for future use.
Unpacking
• After unpacking an RTN 360, power it on within 24 hours.
• Do not power off an RTN 360 for more than 24 hours during maintenance.
