Checking the site for an upgrade

Before beginning the upgrade, the site should be checked by the site supervisor.
The site should be checked against a site preparation checklist and confirmed as
correct according to the site drawings and plans.
The BTS site should be readily prepared according to the specifications given in
Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station: Requirements for Installation and
Operation. In the case of a BTS chaining upgrade, the extra BTS cabinets should
be already installed and checked.
If the site does not meet the requirements in the checklist, complete the site
deficiency reports and report to the Installation Manager / Site Manager before
continuing with the upgrade.
2.4.1

Checking environmental conditions on the site

Check the site conditions before starting the upgrade procedures. In the case of
precipitation (rain, snow or sleet), the site must be weather-guarded during the
upgrading procedure to prevent damage to the units when the BTS cover is
removed. Note the following:
