+== 3.2 Airspan Air4G Basestation Hardware ==
+
+== 3.2 Site Hardware Installation Instructions ==
+
+The Instructions in the Airspan Installation Guide (shipped with airspan BS) talk about the process of Installation.
+Here are Notes from the BBN Installation.
+
+Measure the distance between the mount point for the Airspan base station(BS)
+and the closest network connection for provisioning the BS. 
+
+The following parts are needed for installation: 
+
+    1. 370+ W Power supply
+
+Even though Airspan 2.X Ghz operation has a maximum consumption of 370 Watts, -48V power supply rated for 450W is suggested. One candidate is [http://www.jameco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10001_10001_2105164_-1 Mean Well SE-450-48].
+
+    2. Power cable with custom connector (shipped with airspan BS)
+
+This power cable is an unearthed DC cable and is approx 75 feet
+long. If that is long enough, it should be attached to the power supply as
+shown in figure 1
+
+[[Image(Air4gPS.jpg, width=300, align=right)]] 
+
+In case longer cable is needed, use an off the shelf 18AWG 3C cable and solder it
+together to reach the power source.
+
+    3. Appropriate length weatherproof CAT5E/CAT6 cable.
+
+Bulk cable candidate for outdoor use is [http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/BELKIN-1000ft-CAT5E-DIRECT-BURIAL-CABLE/1302244.aspx Belkin Direct Burial Cable]. Once cable is in place, Ethernet RJ45 connectors have to be placed at both ends; make sure that the Ethernet cable is passed through the
+"Weatherproof Ethernet connector" (shipped with airspan), before the head is put on.
+
+If you use fiber for data connectivity, you will need:
+
+ * Fiber coupler[http://www.l-com.com/item.aspx?id=2016 LC-LC] 
+ * Appropriate length [http://www.l-com.com/item.aspx?id=1689 fiber (50/125 multimode)]
+
+== 3.3  Site Software Installation Instructions ==
+   
+ The Instructions in the Airspan Installation Guide (shipped with airspan BS) talk about the process of Installation.
+ The components for the software installation are:
+
+    1. Netspan Management Software
+    2. Netspan Software License 
+    3. Windows server 2008 Edition License to run the Netspan software
+    4. Server/laptop to run Windows machine
+
+The Airspan BS ''' does not power ON by default '''.
+
+Refer to Page 56 of Installation Guide in conjunction to these instructions.
+
+Air4G-W24 base station has a built in web based interface and default IP 192.168.0.100 
+
+Connect the Ethernet cable to a network switch. Configure the PC with an IP address in the 192.168.0.xxx range
+(e.g. 192.168.0.xxx subnet 255.255.255.0).
+
+Visit the web interface (192.168.0.100)
