 shows the

DC power inlet connector. Insert the plug into an appropriate grounded outlet.

The AC converters come with a barrel connector output that connects to the repeater. For sealing, first
thread the cable gland nut, then the cable gland over the barrel connector. The connector is inserted
into the repeater and then threaded in and the cable gland torqued. Last, thread on the nut and torque
to compress the gland and seal to the cable jacket. Ensure that the barrel connector is fully seated
before final tightening of the gland nut.

The repeater is equipped with a ground screw on the bottom panel. 

Figure 37: SLR 1000 Repeater

Bottom Panel Connector Names and Locations on page 84

 shows the location of the grounding screw.

Connect the ground screw to the site ground point. The size of the wire used for this connection must
be 8 AWG minimum.

CAUTION: Refer to Motorola Quality Standards Fixed Network Equipment Installation Manual
R56 (which can be obtained by ordering CDROM 9880384V83), for complete information
regarding lightning protection.
The repeater should only be connected to a battery supply that is in accordance with the
applicable electrical codes for the end use country; for example, the National Electrical Code
ANSI/ NFPA No. 70 in the U.S.

The transmit and receive antenna RF connections are made using two separate connectors. Coax
cables from the receive and transmit antennas must be connected to their respective connectors. The
position of these connectors are shown in 

Figure 2: SLR 1000 Repeater Left View on page 34

 and 

Figure 3: SLR 1000 Repeater Right View on page 34

 , and their respective connector types are noted

in 

Table 2: SLR 1000 Repeater Left View Callout Legend on page 34

 and 

Table 3: SLR 1000 Repeater

Right View Callout Legend on page 34

.

System connections are made through the Aux and/or Ethernet connectors located on the bottom
panel of the repeater. The positions of the Aux and Ethernet connectors are shown in 

Figure 37: SLR

.

See 

Auxiliary (Aux)/Accessory on page 55

 for a description of the signaling that is supported by the

Aux connector.

Cable sealing glands or cordgrips are used to seal the openings in the bottom of the SLR 1000
Repeater when a cable is used with the repeater. It is expected that the RJ-45 cables for LAN and
GPIO are field terminated as the RJ-45 connectors cannot fit through the cable gland, and cables are
typically made to length on site in a typical installation. Solid plugs are provided to seal the USB
Programming connector and any unused cable ports.

Prerequisites: Obtain a 1 in. torque wrench.

NOTICE: Cables must be field terminated on at least one end to allow the cable to be inserted
through the cable gland.
