Together, they provide a wide coverage, high-capacity system that transfers IP traffic between the Hub and its multiple SUs. Each Hub has the ability to communicate in all directions using up to six sectors of 60 degrees each. Each of the Hubs six sectors has the capability of communicating 20 Mbps in total bandwidth allowing a maximum of 360 Mbps per Hub. Figure 2-1: Each HUB is made up of one to six Base Stations and multiple remotes(SUs) Uplink and Downlink, each SU communicates with a BSU in a coordinated manner so that all other remotes within the BSUs jurisdiction have an equal amount of time to coordinate their data needs in both the uplink and downlink sessions. All SUs are very quickly handled on a case by case basis giving the user, at the SU, the impression that they are in constant communication with its Hubs or BSUs Sector. 2-1 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Point-to-Multipoint Network Model When we talk about the PMP network, one should look at the Subscriber Unit (SU) and the Base Station Unit (BSU) as an integrated transmission and switching medium with physical ports or access points that interface to end user devices. Each Base Station Unit or SU represents one such physical port or access point. Packets received by a SU are transmitted to the Base Station Unit and emerge out from it as a single data stream. Packets flowing into the Base Station Unit are broadcasted to the SUs, which select only packets destined for their local networks based on a set of filtering criteria. LAN traffic BSU port SU port SU port SU port LAN traffic LAN traffic LAN traffic PMP Network Figure 2-2: Model of the PMP network Bridging and Address Filters Depending on the transmission mode selected, the PMP network can function either as a "bridge" or as an "IP gateway" to the end user. In Bridging mode, the PMP network provides a direct physical connection between a SU and its Base Station Unit for the exchange of Ethernet frames between the two entities. To conserve wireless bandwidth, the SU uses some simple filtering criteria in hardware and software to prevent traffic destined for local network to be sent uplink. If the destination Ethernet address is not in the hardware table, the packet is given to software, which provides further filtering by matching the destination address with local addresses stored in its ARP table. The size of the ARP table is set to 512. In the downlink direction, the outbound traffic is filtered in the SU via a
"Programmable Hash Filter". If the destination Ethernet address of a downlink packet 2-1 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T triggers a "hit" in the hash list, the hardware will forward the packet to software for delivery to the local network. Otherwise, the packet is discarded. Uplink traffic Downlink traffic ARP Table Hardware Address Filter Local traffic Programmable Hash Filter Subscriber Unit (SU) Figure 2-3: SU Filters in Bridging Mode Limitations of the Bridging Mode Again, if we consider the PMP network as a multi-port bridge, then it exhibits only a limited bridging function. For a true bridge to work, whatever traffic flows into one port should be fanned out to all the other ports, if the destination Ethernet address is not local to the receiving port. For the PMP network to behave the same, whatever data received by the Base Station Unit from a SU should also be broadcasted back downlink to all other SUs associated with the Base Station Unit. However, this is not done.

First, the entire Ethernet frame, which includes the 18 bytes Ethernet header, is transmitted between the SU and the Base Station Unit. Second, all ARP packets are transmitted between the SU and Base Station Unit as well. Empirical result has shown that in general Bridging mode can consume up to 10% more bandwidth than IP Routing mode. VLAN Switching The PMP Implementation VLAN switching is mainly used for segregating LAN traffic based on VLAN ID that accompanies a received VLAN frame. It allows a network operator to partition his LAN segment into closed user groups and allow a device to communicate only with other devices of the same group. Unlike a regular bridge, a VLAN switch is able to deliver received VLAN frames only to other ports tagged with the same VLAN ID, thus reducing unwanted network traffic. VLAN switching is quick and simple from a switching nodes perspective. However, setting up a VLAN network can be a mundane exercise for the network administrator. The reason is that most of the end user devices today (PCs for example) are not VLAN aware. This forces the network operator to place VLAN switches at critical junctions all over the place so that VLAN frames can be converted into regular Ethernet frames and vice versa. This can be a nightmare and a costly endeavor if proper planning does not take place beforehand. There is a built-in VLAN to Ethernet conversion capability in the SUs and Base Station Units, as illustrated in Figure 2-5. 2-3 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T VLAN Switch Port 1, tagged VLAN ids 1,2,3 BSU 1

A tagged port can only receive and transmit VLAN frames. For a port such as port 1 that associates with multiple VLAN ids, it has to be tagged. An untagged port can receive both tagged VLAN frames or untagged regular Ethernet frames but will only transmit untagged Ethernet frames. An untagged port can only be associated with one unique VLAN id and is most commonly used for connection to VLAN unaware devices. As shown in Fig. 2.2, SU1, PC1, SU3, PC3 and router2 form a closed user group associated with VLAN id 2. SU 2, PC2 and Router1 form another closed user group associated with VLAN id 3. When SU1, for example, receives a regular Ethernet frame from PC1, it tagged the frame with VLAN id 2, which is SU1s configured VLAN id. The VLAN frame is passed to the VLAN switch via BS1 and broadcasted to port 2 and port 4 of the VLAN switch. When SU3 receives the VLAN frame from BS2, it converts the VLAN into regular Ethernet frame and gives it to PC3. For control purpose, the VLAN IDs of all Base Station Units are hard coded to 1 and cannot be changed by the operator. For any device such as Wireless Manager or Ethernet Console to communicate with a Base Station Unit, the device needs to be connected to an untagged VLAN port associated with VLAN ID 1. Otherwise, the Base Station Unit will not be reachable. When a Base Station Unit wants to transmit a control message or send a response back to the Wireless Manager or Ethernet Console, it will transmit a tagged VLAN frame of id 1, which will be received by all devices connected to VLAN ports associated with VLAN id 1. In PMP network VLAN switching is a special Bridging mode with the VLAN tag enabled in the Base Station Unit configuration. As such, VLAN switching is also bounded by the same constraint that SUs within the same Base Station Unit cannot communicate with each other. VLAN switching is not supported in IP routing mode. IP Routing and Default Gateway In IP routing mode, a SU performs the following functions. First, it serves as a DHCP relay agent that facilitates the exchange of DHCP packets between the local PC and a remote DHCP server and also automatically becomes the PC's default IP gateway at the end of the process once the PC obtains its IP address assignment. Second, the SU provides additional network security measures by blocking any unauthorized PCs from accessing the wireless network. Four access modes have been implemented, as described below:
A: RESTRICTED ACCESS In this mode, for any device with an IP address not obtained from DHCP to access the PMP network, its static IP address must first be recorded in the PMP's database. We allow up to 5 static IP addresses to be associated with each SU. In the Restricted mode, the Programmable Hash Filter discussed earlier contains only the DHCP based IP addresses, the static IP addresses and the gateway address that 2-5 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T have been registered. Any device with an IP address not in the PMP's configuration database will not be able to access the wireless network. B. LOCAL ACCESS In this mode, any device connected directly to the SU's local network will be able to access the network, regardless of how its IP address is obtained. C. OPEN ACCESS This mode allows any device connected either directly to the SU's local network or indirectly via a router to access the wireless network. When this mode is activated, the Programmable Hash Filter is disabled, allowing the SU software to receive all downlink packets. If the downlink packet is destined for the SUs local network, the software will deliver the packet directly. If the downlink packet belongs to a different subnet or network, the software will forward the packet to its gateway, which serves as the SU's default gateway to external networks. D. SUBNET ACCESS This mode is same as the Local Access Mode except that the Programmable Hash Filter is opened wide enough just to include all IP addresses that reside within the SU's own subnet. Address Filters in IP Routing Mode In IP Routing mode, the uplink filtering is done via the access control mechanisms as described earlier. For downlink direction, IP addresses instead of Ethernet addresses are used in the hash filter. If a hash hit is triggered, the software will search its ARP table to locate the destination Ethernet address that corresponds to the destination IP address contained in the packet. If an entry is not found the packet will be discarded. 2-6 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Access Filter Local traffic Programmable Hash Filter ARP Table Subscriber Unit (SU) Figure 2-6: SU Filters in IP Routing Mode Proxy: to ARP or not to ARP .... In addition to enforcement of the access modes discussed above, one of the main functions of the SU is to serve as a proxy server for the local devices. Without this function many of our network applications will fail. Before we go into detailed discussions, however, we need to first understand the basics in IP networking. When a device such as a PC, router, SU or Base Station Unit wants to transmit an IP packet, it needs to first decide if the destination IP address resides within its own subnet. If the answer is yes, the sending device needs to search for the corresponding Ethernet address associated with the destination IP address by broadcasting an ARP request to its local network. A device with a matching IP address or one which is interested in receiving packets for that IP address will send back an ARP response, which contains the destination Ethernet address. Once the destination Ethernet address is known, the sending device can then deliver the packet directly to that Ethernet address. If the destination IP address resides in a different subnet, then the sending device will not even bother to issue an ARP request but will instead forward the packet to a default gateway for delivery. Now back to the PMP discussion. In the PMP network, it is quite common to have multiple SUs share the same subnet address. In that case, when a PC connected to a SU wants to send packets to a PC connected to another SU, the originating PC will issue an ARP request to explore the Ethernet address of the destination PC, since both of them reside in the same subnet. Unfortunately, the destination PC will not be able to receive the ARP request because it is not physically connected to the originating PC. This then forces the SU connected to the originating PC to issue a proxy response on behalf of the destination PC. The SU will issue a proxy response only when it knows via initial learning that the destination PC is not connected to its local network. 2-7 BS1 192.168.20.1 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T The proxy capability allows SUs in the PMP network to share the same subnet address, even though they are not directly connected. Without this capability, all the SUs in the network will be forced to have different subnet addresses.

First, as mentioned earlier, IP Routing mode conserves wireless bandwidth. Second, it provides added control over which hosts attach to the network. Third, it allows communications among end user devices associated with the same Base Station Unit. Fourth, it gives the network operator greater freedom in partitioning his network into logical subnets. However, if the operator expects his network to run smoothly in IP Routing mode, some careful forward planning will be required, as illustrated in the following examples.

BS1 belongs to subnet 191.168.20.0 and is connected to one of the router ports, which has the same subnet address. BS2 belongs to subnet 192.168.21.0 and is connected to a second router port with the same subnet address. For PC1 to send a packet to PC2, it will first issue an ARP request, which SU1 will respond on behalf of PC2 as part of the proxy process described earlier. PC1 then transmits data packets to SU1, which forwards only the IP portion to BS1 after stripping off the 18 bytes Ethernet header. BS1 delivers the packet to Router1 after appending its own Ethernet address as the source Ethernet address. Router1 recognizes that the destination address belongs to subnet 192,168,20,0 and forwards it back to BS1 via the same router port. The packet is received by SU2 via BS1 and filtered via the Programmable Hash Filter since PC2's address is already recorded in SU2s database. The packet is delivered to software, which searches via its ARP table, appends PC2's Ethernet address as the destination Ethernet address and its own address as the source Ethernet address and delivers the packet to PC2. For PC1 to send a packet to PC3, it will forward the packet to SU1 since the destination address lies outside of PC1's subnet and also that SU1 is PC1's default gateway. When Router1 receives the packet it recognizes that the destination address belongs to a different subnet than that of the receiving port. The packet is then sent to BS2 via the other router port and is ultimately received by PC3 following similar process described above. PC4 cannot access the network because its IP address is not recognized by the SU in Restricted mode. 2-9 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Example 2:

This is possible because in IP Routing mode the PMP network can function like a multi-port router where each port has its own network address. In this configuration we have added Router2, which is connected to SU4 and also to PCX via a second port with a different network interface 175.168.20.0. In order for SU4 to receive IP packets for PCX or any unknown device that is connected to Router2, its hash mode must be set to OPEN. For PCX to send data to PC2, it will deliver the packet to Router2, which is PCX's gateway to the PMP network. Router2 forwards the packet to SU4, which is its default gateway. SU4 delivers the packet to Router1 via BS2. Router1 forwards the packet to BS1. The packet is received by SU2 and delivered to PC2. If PC2 wants to send packet to PCX, it will forward the packet to SU2, which delivers the packet to Router1 via BS1. Router1 then sends the packet to SU4 via BS2. Since hash mode for SU4 is set to OPEN, the hardware will deliver the packet to software bypassing the Programmable Hash Table. SU4 recognizes that this packet is for a different subnet and forwards it to Router2 for delivery to PCX. USEFUL HINTS FOR TESTING PMP NETWORK UNDER BRIDGING MODE Before changing the Base Station Unit Configuration to VLAN switching, make sure that the Base Station Unit and the Ethernet console are connected to a VLAN switch. Otherwise, you will not be able to talk to the Base Station Unit again since the PC hosting the Ethernet Console cannot send or receive VLAN frames. USEFUL HINTS FOR TESTING PMP NETWORK UNDER IP ROUTING MODE Make sure to configure the Base Station Unit to have the router port as its default gateway and that the IP addresses of the Base Station Unit and the router port reside in the same subnet. Also remember to configure the router port to point to the Base Station Unit as its gateway. Make sure that a SU and its directly connected devices are in the same subnet. The subnet address of a device can be obtained by logically AND the devices IP address with its subnet mask. A subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 implies that there are 255 IP addresses within the same subnet. If the IP address of a PC connected to a SU is not dynamically assigned, make sure that the PCs IP address appears in the SUs static IP list. Otherwise, the PC will not be able to access the wireless network if the SU is running in Restricted mode. Also, remember to configure the PC to point to the SU as its default gateway. In the latest firmware release, the proxy setting is turned on automatically dont change the setting. 2-11 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T USEFUL HINTS FOR ANYONE TRYING TO OPERATE THE PMP NETWORK When changing back and forth between Bridging mode and IP routing mode, always remember to manually clear the ARP table of your PC. Dont just turn off the power of the Base Station Unit at-will because the Base Station Unit might be saving internal variables or configuration parameters to the flash memory at that moment. Always wait for a minute after keying in an operator command before shutting the Base Station Unit down. It is wise to connect a Wireless Manager (WM) to the PMP network. The WM serves as an external data storage and configuration backup for the PMP network, even if we dont care about its other features. The configuration is downloaded from WM to a Base Station Unit every time the Base Station Unit is powered up. Always follow the simple proxy rule and fundamental principles concerning subnet and default gateway in planning and analyzing the PMP network. A good understanding of the basic IP Networking is needed regardless of whether you operate the PMP network in IP Routing or Bridging mode. If you cannot get the network to work - most likely there is a set up error. Check the network configuration using the above hints and try again. 2-12 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Chapter 3 3 Site Planning & Installation The installation of a wireless network requires much the same basic planning as any wired network. The main difference is that the wireless signal requires some additional planning. This planning includes RF path planning, site preparation, and installation of outdoor components such as outdoor units, antennas, lightning protection devices, and cabling suitable for outdoor conditions. Although the technology implemented in this broadband fixed wireless system can make use of multipath signals, reducing the effect of obstructions in the path, it is important that the characteristics of the path be carefully examined. With this knowledge, components and network requirements can be correctly planned for your specific application. This chapter provides insight into the planning necessary to prepare your site for your broadband fixed wireless system. General Considerations A basic consideration is the physical location of the sites at each end of the link. Because microwave signals travel in a straight line, a clear line of sight between antennas is ideal. Frequently, however, the locations of the desired links are fixed. When a clear line of sight cannot be achieved, you must plan accordingly. Other general site considerations include:
a. Will a tower have to be constructed? Are permits required?
b. Possibility of future obstructions-Will trees grow high enough to interfere with the signal? Are there plans to erect buildings between the sites that may obstruct the path?
c. Availability of grounding-Good grounding is important in all areas of the world, but in areas prone to lightning, it is especially critical. d. Distance between the indoor portion of the system and the users network. e. The SU may potentially be served by different Base Stations. Can the best BSU access and available sighting location be determined prior to installation. 3-1 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T The planning of a wireless link involves collecting information and making decisions. The following sections will help you determine which information is critical to the site and will be an aid in the decision-making process. Weather It is important to research any unusual weather conditions that are common to the site location. These conditions can include excessive amounts of rain, wind velocity or extreme temperature ranges. If extreme conditions exist that may affect the integrity of the radio link, it is recommended that these conditions be taken into consideration early in the planning process. RAIN Except in extreme conditions, attenuation (weakening of the signal) due to rain does not require serious consideration for frequencies up to the range of 6 GHz. When microwave frequencies are at 10-12 GHz range or above, attenuation due to rain becomes much more of a concern, especially in areas where rainfall is of high density and long duration. The systems discussed in this manual operate at frequencies below 6 GHz, so rain is not a concern. Temperature can adversely affect the radio link when such as temperature inversion, or very still air accompanied by stratification. Temperature inversion can negate clearances, and still air along with stratification can cause severe refractive or reflective conditions, with unpredictable results. Temperature inversions and stratification can also cause ducting, which may increase the potential for interference between systems that do not normally interfere with each other. Where these conditions exist, it is recommended that shorter paths and adequate clearances are used. WIND Any system components mounted outdoors will be subject to the effect of wind. It is important to know the direction and velocity of the wind common to the site. Antennas and their supporting structures must be able to prevent these forces from affecting the antenna or causing damage to the building or tower on which the components are mounted. Antenna designs react differently to wind forces, depending on the area presented to the wind. This is known as wind loading. Note For definitions of wind loading specifications for antennas and towers, refer to TIA/EIA- 195 (for antennas) or TIA/EIA-222 (for towers) specifications. LIGHTNING The potential for lightning damage to radio equipment should always be considered when planning a wireless link. A variety of lightning protection and grounding devices 3-2 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T are available for use on buildings, towers, antennas, cables, and equipment, whether located inside or outside the site, that could be damaged by a lightning strike. Lightning protection requirements are based on the exposure at the site, the cost of link down-time, and local building and electrical codes. If the link is critical, and the site is in an active lightning area, attention to thorough lightning protection and grounding is critical. LIGHTNING PROTECTION To provide effective lightning protection, install antennas in locations that are unlikely to receive direct lightning strikes, or install lightning rods to protect antennas from direct strikes. Make sure that cables and equipment are properly grounded to provide low-impedance paths for lightning currents. Install surge suppressors on adjacent telephone lines and power lines. Recommended is additional lightning protection in those regions that have extreme lightning occurrences for cables leading to the wireless OutDoor Unit (ODU) to/from the indoor power brick. This optional lightning protection should be placed at points close to where the cable passes through the bulkhead into the building, as well as near the ODU. Use the earthing screw at the ODU and use proper grounding. CAT5 CABLE When the entire control cable, from the building entrance to the ODU, is encased in steel conduit, no surge arrestors are required. Otherwise, each control cable requires one surge arrestor within two feet of the building entrance. Note For installations with several radios, it may be more convenient to use a Type-
66 punch block with surge arrestors. A Type-66 punch block can accommodate up to 25 conductor pairs. Interference An important part of planning your broadband fixed wireless system is the avoidance of interference. Interference can be caused by effects within the system or outside the system. Good planning for frequencies and antennas can overcome most interference challenges. CO-CHANNEL AND ADJACENT CHANNEL INTERFERENCE Co-channel interference results when another RF link is using the same channel frequency. Adjacent-channel interference results when another RF link is using an adjacent channel frequency. In selecting a site, a spectrum analyzer can be used to determine if any strong signals are present at the site and, if they are, to determine how 3-3 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T close they are to the desired frequency. The further away from your proposed frequency, the less likely they are to cause a problem. Antennas Antennas frequently play a key role in reducing the potential for interference. They come in a variety of configurations that have different performance characteristics in the areas of gain and directionality. Antennas that transmit/receive in all directions are known as omni-directional, while those that transmit/receive in one specific direction are categorized as directional. Antennas also vary in beamwidth, which is the aperture to which they can see signals. Larger antennas typically provide narrower beamwidths and can diminish interference from nearby transmitters by:
Focusing RF energy from the intended destination Reducing the power of interfering sources not directly aligned to the antenna Antennas: the narrower, the better Tsunami Multipoint Ethernet Systems use integrated directional antennas that transmit and receive a relatively narrow beamwidth of radio energy, improving system performance by reducing the likelihood that surrounding RF clutter will interfere with reception. The antennas with this system are directional and can not be detached. Type:
Beamwidth:
Elevation:
Flat-panel antenna 60-degree 6-degree Even when other licensees are not an issue, if you are using a network deployment using the "cell" approach, all these considerations are still important to reduce interference between your own adjacent installations. Antennas are tuned to operate on a specific group of frequencies. Tsunami Multipoint offers a variety of channel plans that provide a flexible tool for overcoming present and future interference. Four non-overlapping 20 MHz channels (six total directional channels) can be used to avoid existing traffic in the 5.8 GHz frequency band. If one part of the 5.8 GHz spectrum is occupied when Tsunami Multipoint is initially deployed, another frequency channel can be selected to bypass the interfering signal. If interference arises after deployment, another frequency channel plan can be selected to steer around the impacted channel. Beamwidth and gain have been optimized in this equipment. ANTENNA POLARIZATION The Tsunami Multipoint system uses left-hand circular polarization. As a result, the signal is successfully received regardless of the orientation of the antenna. Circular 3-4 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T polarization also provides protection against multipath degradation of the signal quality. TOWERS When planning antenna placement, it might be necessary to build a free-standing tower for the antenna. Regulations and limitations define the height and location of these towers with respect to airports, runways, and airplane approach paths. These regulations are controlled by the FAA. In some circumstances, the tower installations must be approved by the FAA, registered with the FCC, or both. To ensure compliance, review the current FCC regulations regarding antenna structures. These regulations (along with examples) are on the FCC web site at wwwfcc.gov/wtb/antenna/. Path Planning To get the most value from a wireless system, path planning is essential. In addition to the fact that radio signals dissipate as they travel, many other factors operate on a microwave signal as it moves through space. All of these must be taken into account, because any obstructions in the path will attenuate the signal. CALCULATING A LINK BUDGET A link budget is a rough calculation of all known elements of the link to determine if the signal will have the proper strength when it reaches the other end of the link. To make this calculation, the following information should be considered. A signal degrades as it moves through space. The longer the path, the more loss it experiences. This free-space path loss is a factor in calculating the link viability. Free-
space path loss is easily calculated for miles or kilometers. Availability represents the quality of a link. It is the ratio of the time that the link is available to the total time. This serves as a guide to the service that you can expect, on average, over a period of one year. Table 2-2 shows how percentage availability relates to outage time per year. Note: use the path planning tools located on the WMUX web site: www.wmux.com Note You can lower the bit error rate (BER), resulting in greater reliability, by reducing the data throughput or reducing the distance. UNLICENSED FREQUENCIES-ISM The FCC has identified the frequencies from 5.725 to 5.825 GHz as an Industrial, Scientific, Medical (ISM) band. This band can be used by anyone without having to 3-5 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T obtain a license. However, you must use radio equipment that is "type approved" by the FCC or local government for use within the specific band.

The applicable crimp tooling for the contacts is described later. Read the material packaged with the crimp tooling for the proper crimping procedure. 3-9 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Figure 3-2: Crimping styles and insertion Insertion - Normally, an insertion tool is not required to insert contacts into the housings. However, if the wire bundle is large, or if the wire is fragile, an insertion tool is recommended. To insert a contact, grip insulation of wire (directly behind contact) and align contact with BACK of desired contact cavity. Insert contact straight into cavity until it bottoms. Pull back lightly on wire to be sure contact is locked in place. Extraction - Extraction tools are designed for removing pin and socket contacts from the connectors. Refer to the instruction material packaged with the tool for the proper extraction procedure. MATING CONNECTORS These connectors have a positive lock feature which prevents accidental disengagement. Align polarizing keys and keyways and start plug into receptacle. Rotate coupling ring CLOCKWISE until positive lock snaps into position. Do not use for blind mating applications. 3-10 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Figure 3-3: Indoor portion of interconnect cable Wire Size and Preparation Contacts are available for the wire sizes specified. Prepare wire for crimping by stripping insulation. DO NOT nick, scrape, or cut the stranded or solid wire conductor during stripping operation. When using twisted pair cable, one wire should be cut shorter than the other by the same distance as the strip length of the longer wire. I WirePreparation Loading Contact Into Housing Normally an insertion tool is not required to insert contacts Into housings. However, if the wire bundle is large or the individual wires are fragile, the use of an Insertion tool is recommended. Shield and Strain Relief If wire at the rear of the housing is subjected to strain, use of a strain relief will prevent damage to the contacts, wires, and housing. Strain Relief Kits Several types and sizes of strain relief kits are available. Shield and strain relief kits include a shield, strain relief clamps, and two self-tapping screws. Flexible strain relief boots and grippers are used with jacketed cable (or firmly taped discreet wires) to provide wire protection and prevent contact pullout when severe cable angle applications are encountered, or when connectors are frequently disconnected and reconnected. Heat shrink sealing boots can also provide a splash-proof strain relief for jacketed cable. NOTE If a strain relief Is used on the connector, the wires may be dressed to an angle at the and of the strain relief. However, without use of a strain relief, the wires. should not be dressed closer then 2.50 inches from the back of the housing. To prevent damage to contacts and/or housing, avoid exerting stress on wire. 3-11 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T TOOLING AMP Hand Crimping Tools and Applicators are available for applying crimp type contacts, also Insertion Tools and Extraction Tools assist in assembly and repair. Instruction Sheets and Applicator Instructions, describing tool operations, are packaged with the tool. 3-12 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T INSTALLING FLEXIBLE STRAIN RELIEF BOOTS AND GRIPPERS Proceed as follows:
1. Install boot and gripper on cable before removing cable jacket. Slide boot onto cable flexible end first. Slide gripper onto cable slotted and first. 2. Crimp contacts to wires according to instructional material packaged with crimp tooling. 3. Insert contacts into housing according to instructions packaged with connector. 4. Thread gripper onto connector. Thread boot onto gripper until wire is tight. Do NOT over tighten. Over tightening of gripper on flexible boot can fracture boot. Some threads on gripper may be exposed on larger diameter wire. Figure 3-3: IDU to ODU cable 3-13 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Figure 3-4: IDU to ODU cable w/separate power plug Alternative Method of Connection Another method that is acceptable is to use what are called jelly beans or Telephone Wire Tap Connectors. These moisture resistant and easy to install devices have been used by the telephone industry for years both indoors and out (for this installation, recommendation is for using only indoors). These can be purchased at many electronic supply stores worldwide including Radio Shack (part #64-3081), Tandy or through most well stocked DYI stores. For this method, you will need eight (8) of these devices per cable. Self-stripping tap connectors permit a continuous feed or loop without interruptions and let you splice wires without cutting any conductors. The connectors can be used with Where you had to cut the cable for entry or egress, strip back the outer CAT5 cable jacket about two (2) inches on each side of the cut do not strip the individual wires leaving bare copper! Into each 2-wire Tap Connector, push in the like colored wires from each cable end firmly and equally into the Tap. While holding the wires in firmly, squeeze the button with wide pliers to equally force the button into the Tap. If properly done, the button will now be flush with the rest of the Tap Connector body and the two wires will not pull out. Continue with the installation of seven (7) more of 3-14 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T these Taps being sure that each wire from the ends of each severed cables match exactly in color per each Telephone-type Wire Tap Connector. Refer to the table below that provides the details on each of the eight (8) wires that will need to be spliced from one cable to the like color on the other cable. After successfully installing the wire tap devices, the severed cable will carry the Ethernet and voltages necessary for operation. 3-15 D E S I G N C U S T O M I Z A T I O N Chapter 4 4 Set-up Procedure Please read this section completely before attempting to install any software, test or operate this system. Permanent damage to the equipment can result if directions are not followed exactly as provided. Important Configuration Notes NOTES:
1) When powering up with frame sync set to independent, the transmitter power is disabled for up to 10 seconds 2) When powering up with frame sync set to multi-sector, the transmitter power is disabled for up to 5.5 minutes 3) When changing frequency or inbound slot configurations with frame-sync set to independent, the transmitter power is disabled for 5 seconds. 4) When changing frequency or inbound slot configurations with frame-sync set to multi-sector, the transmitter power is disabled for 3 minutes. The Base Station Configuration program is not ultimately intended to be a users interface. However, this program does provide configuration controls for this particular system. The syntax of the data entry must be followed exactly as shown. When a string of characters is shown in this document with quotation marks around it
(such as IP), do not type the quotation marks. When the letter x is shown within the quotation marks, this represents a number that the operator will select based on other factors. When the word (enter) is shown, this indicates pressing of the Enter (or Return) key on your keyboard. Wherever there are spaces shown in the syntax of a command, include these spaces. Commands are case sensitive. 4-1 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Unpacking the System Pay close attention to how units are packed before unpacking. SEE PHOTO BELOW AND NEXT PAGE FOR CLARIFICATION The Base Station Unit (BSU), unpacking should be in the following steps:
a. Remove power supply unit b. Remove loose cables and small mounting hardware in the bracket area c. Remove the top layer of foam being careful not to rip d. Remove large mounting bracket e. Remove BSU unit Figure 4-1: Base Unit Kit 4-2 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Mechanical Considerations Mounting Units The outside component of your Tsunami Multipoint Base Station Unit are designed to directly mount to 1-1/2 inch to 3 inch pole diameters (outer diameter). For mounting directly to a proper size pole, first attach the bottom mounting bracket to the pole using the retainer as seen below while keeping the unit upright (lash to pole or keep hosting rope in place). Then attach the ODU to the pole using the upper mounting bracket, and lock into position by tightening the bottom bracket screws and the upper arm bolts using the supplied mounting nuts. To adjust the up/down tilt, move the arm nuts and bracket until at the right angel and then tighten all nuts as shown. See photos and diagrams below for detail. Connect the weatherproof circular connector from the cable from the power unit to the bottom of the ODU assembly. Note:
Different diameter poles require different mounting techniques. Adapt the mounting brackets according to the mounting pole diameter. If the pole diameter is larger than can be accommodated
(>3.00), use a pair of extenders and mount a smaller diameter pole parallel to the thicker pole and away from the tower. GPS antenna connection on top of the BSU ODU. Remove water protection cap and connect the GPS cable with antenna. Figure 4-2: Base Station Unit ODU mounting detail FLAT SURFACE MOUNTING For mounting to a flat surface, attach mounting bracket to the SU using bolts supplied, and then mount to flat surface using your own hardware. GPS ANTENNA MOUNTING For operation with multiple base stations, the frame timing of all BSUs must be synchronized using GPS. The GPS antenna (small metal plate with black 2x2 antenna with thin cable) must be connected to the SMA connector on top of the ODUnit (see drawing above). Find a location nearby where the antenna plate can be mounted and secured with the black antenna bump up and the plate parallel to the earth/horizon. This small antenna needs to see as much of the sky as possible to 4-3 acquire at least one GPS satellite to extract timing signals for the ODU transmission synchronization. T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Figure 4-3: ODU with GPS antenna Each BSU ODU must have its GPS antenna attached and mounted as described above. Figure 4-4: Base Station ODU Connect the supplied cable between the ODU (pictured above) and the power unit mounted near your PC or network. The ODU cable to the inside power unit may be of two different styles (see Figures 2-12 and 2-13). Whichever cable, connect the ODU with the larger of the connectors by aligning the plastic slot and then hand-
tighten the outside ring to secure and seal the connector to the ODU. 4-4 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Adjust the up/down tilt accordingly per the terrain and location of the SUs.

Together, they provide a wide coverage, high-capacity system that transfers IP traffic between the Hub and its multiple SUs. Each Hub has the ability to communicate in all directions using up to six sectors of 60 degrees each. Each of the Hubs six sectors has the capability of communicating 20 Mbps in total bandwidth allowing a maximum of 180 Mbps per Hub. Figure 2-1: Each HUB is made up of one to six Base Stations and multiple remotes(SUs) Uplink and Downlink, each SU communicates with a BSU in a coordinated manner so that all other remotes within the BSUs jurisdiction have an equal amount of time to coordinate their data needs in both the uplink and downlink sessions. All SUs are very quickly handled on a case by case basis giving the user, at the SU, the impression that they are in constant communication with its Hubs or BSUs Sector. 2-1 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Site Planning Considerations The installation of a wireless network requires much the same basic planning as any wired network. The main difference is that the wireless signal requires some additional planning. This planning includes RF path planning, site preparation, and installation of outdoor components such as outdoor units, antennas, lightning protection devices, and cabling suitable for outdoor conditions. Although the technology implemented in this broadband fixed wireless system can make use of multipath signals, reducing the effect of obstructions in the path, it is important that the characteristics of the path be carefully examined. With this knowledge, components and network requirements can be correctly planned for your specific application. This chapter provides insight into the planning necessary to prepare your site for your broadband fixed wireless system. General Considerations A basic consideration is the physical location of the sites at each end of the link. Because microwave signals travel in a straight line, a clear line of sight between antennas is ideal. Frequently, however, the locations of the desired links are fixed. When a clear line of sight cannot be achieved, you must plan accordingly. Other general site considerations include:
a. Will a tower have to be constructed? Are permits required?
b. Possibility of future obstructions-Will trees grow high enough to interfere with the signal? Are there plans to erect buildings between the sites that may obstruct the path?
c. Availability of grounding-Good grounding is important in all areas of the world, but in areas prone to lightning, it is especially critical. d. Distance between the indoor portion of the system and the users network. e. The SU may potentially be served by different Base Stations. Can the best BSU access and available sighting location be determined prior to installation. The planning of a wireless link involves collecting information and making decisions. The following sections will help you determine which information is critical to the site and will be an aid in the decision-making process. 2-2 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Weather It is important to research any unusual weather conditions that are common to the site location. These conditions can include excessive amounts of rain, wind velocity or extreme temperature ranges. If extreme conditions exist that may affect the integrity of the radio link, it is recommended that these conditions be taken into consideration early in the planning process. RAIN Except in extreme conditions, attenuation (weakening of the signal) due to rain does not require serious consideration for frequencies up to the range of 6 GHz. When microwave frequencies are at 10-12 GHz range or above, attenuation due to rain becomes much more of a concern, especially in areas where rainfall is of high density and long duration. The systems discussed in this manual operate at frequencies below 6 GHz, so rain is not a concern. Temperature can adversely affect the radio link when such as temperature inversion, or very still air accompanied by stratification. Temperature inversion can negate clearances, and still air along with stratification can cause severe refractive or reflective conditions, with unpredictable results. Temperature inversions and stratification can also cause ducting, which may increase the potential for interference between systems that do not normally interfere with each other. Where these conditions exist, it is recommended that shorter paths and adequate clearances are used. WIND Any system components mounted outdoors will be subject to the effect of wind. It is important to know the direction and velocity of the wind common to the site. Antennas and their supporting structures must be able to prevent these forces from affecting the antenna or causing damage to the building or tower on which the components are mounted. Antenna designs react differently to wind forces, depending on the area presented to the wind. This is known as wind loading. Note For definitions of wind loading specifications for antennas and towers, refer to TIA/EIA- 195 (for antennas) or TIA/EIA-222 (for towers) specifications. LIGHTNING The potential for lightning damage to radio equipment should always be considered when planning a wireless link. A variety of lightning protection and grounding devices are available for use on buildings, towers, antennas, cables, and equipment, whether located inside or outside the site, that could be damaged by a lightning strike. Lightning protection requirements are based on the exposure at the site, the cost of link down-time, and local building and electrical codes. If the link is critical, and the site is in an active lightning area, attention to thorough lightning protection and grounding is critical. 2-3 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T LIGHTNING PROTECTION To provide effective lightning protection, install antennas in locations that are unlikely to receive direct lightning strikes, or install lightning rods to protect antennas from direct strikes. Make sure that cables and equipment are properly grounded to provide low-impedance paths for lightning currents. Install surge suppressors on adjacent telephone lines and power lines. Recommended is additional lightning protection in those regions that have extreme lightning occurrences for cables leading to the wireless OutDoor Unit (ODU) to/from the indoor power brick. This optional lightning protection should be placed at points close to where the cable passes through the bulkhead into the building, as well as near the ODU. Use the earthing screw at the ODU and use proper grounding. CAT5 CABLE When the entire control cable, from the building entrance to the ODU, is encased in steel conduit, no surge arrestors are required. Otherwise, each control cable requires one surge arrestor within two feet of the building entrance. Note For installations with several radios, it may be more convenient to use a Type-
66 punch block with surge arrestors. A Type-66 punch block can accommodate up to 25 conductor pairs. INTERFERENCE An important part of planning your broadband fixed wireless system is the avoidance of interference. Interference can be caused by effects within the system or outside the system. Good planning for frequencies and antennas can overcome most interference challenges. Co-Channel and Adjacent Channel Interference Co-channel interference results when another RF link is using the same channel frequency. Adjacent-channel interference results when another RF link is using an adjacent channel frequency. In selecting a site, a spectrum analyzer can be used to determine if any strong signals are present at the site and, if they are, to determine how close they are to the desired frequency. The further away from your proposed frequency, the less likely they are to cause a problem. 2-4 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Antennas Antennas frequently play a key role in reducing the potential for interference. They come in a variety of configurations that have different performance characteristics in the areas of gain and directionality. Antennas that transmit/receive in all directions are known as omni-directional, while those that transmit/receive in one specific direction are categorized as directional. Antennas also vary in beamwidth, which is the aperture to which they can see signals. Larger antennas typically provide narrower beamwidths and can diminish interference from nearby transmitters by:
Focusing RF energy from the intended destination Reducing the power of interfering sources not directly aligned to the antenna Antennas: the narrower, the better Tsunami Multipoint Ethernet Systems use integrated directional antennas that transmit and receive a relatively narrow beamwidth of radio energy, improving system performance by reducing the likelihood that surrounding RF clutter will interfere with reception. The antennas with this system are directional and can not be detached. Type:
Beamwidth:
Elevation:
Flat-panel antenna 10-degree 10-degree Even when other licensees are not an issue, if you are using a network deployment using the "cell" approach, all these considerations are still important to reduce interference between your own adjacent installations. Antennas are tuned to operate on a specific group of frequencies. Tsunami Multipoint offers a variety of channel plans that provide a flexible tool for overcoming present and future interference. Four non-overlapping 20 MHz channels (six total directional channels) can be used to avoid existing traffic in the 5.8 GHz frequency band. If one part of the 5.8 GHz spectrum is occupied when Tsunami Multipoint is initially deployed, another frequency channel can be selected to bypass the interfering signal. If interference arises after deployment, another frequency channel plan can be selected to steer around the impacted channel. Beamwidth and gain have been optimized in this equipment. ANTENNA POLARIZATION The Tsunami Multipoint system uses left-hand circular polarization. As a result, the signal is successfully received regardless of the orientation of the antenna. Circular polarization also provides protection against multipath degradation of the signal quality. 2-5 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T TOWERS When planning antenna placement, it might be necessary to build a free-standing tower for the antenna. Regulations and limitations define the height and location of these towers with respect to airports, runways, and airplane approach paths. These regulations are controlled by the FAA. In some circumstances, the tower installations must be approved by the FAA, registered with the FCC, or both. To ensure compliance, review the current FCC regulations regarding antenna structures. These regulations (along with examples) are on the FCC web site at wwwfcc.gov/wtb/antenna/. Path Planning To get the most value from a wireless system, path planning is essential. In addition to the fact that radio signals dissipate as they travel, many other factors operate on a microwave signal as it moves through space. All of these must be taken into account, because any obstructions in the path will attenuate the signal. A link budget is a rough calculation of all known elements of the link to determine if the signal will have the proper strength when it reaches the other end of the link. To make this calculation, the following information should be considered. A signal degrades as it moves through space. The longer the path, the more loss it experiences. This free-space path loss is a factor in calculating the link viability. Free-
space path loss is easily calculated for miles or kilometers. Availability represents the quality of a link. It is the ratio of the time that the link is available to the total time. This serves as a guide to the service that you can expect, on average, over a period of one year. Table 2-2 shows how percentage availability relates to outage time per year. Note: use the path planning tools located on the WMUX web site: www.wmux.com Note You can lower the bit error rate (BER), resulting in greater reliability, by reducing the data throughput or reducing the distance. UNLICENSED FREQUENCIES-ISM The FCC has identified the frequencies from 5.725 to 5.825 GHz as an Industrial, Scientific, Medical (ISM) band. This band can be used by anyone without having to obtain a license. However, you must use radio equipment that is "type approved" by the FCC or local government for use within the specific band. 2-6 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Specifications Integrated antenna (LHCP, 21 dBi) PRODUCT Subscriber Unit BURST_RATE LIMIT MODEL NUMBER 20 Mbps 40100-XXx BURST RATE 20 Mbps Note: Above calculations are typical and based on a 50/50 down/link (D/L) up/link

Permanent damage to the equipment can result if directions are not followed exactly as provided. Important Configuration Notes The Subscriber Unit (SU) does not normally require any configuration prior to operation. The SU will automatically negotiate with the Base Station Unit when sufficient signal strength is received in both directions to establish communications. For custom configurations, the Subscriber Utility software, supplied on the CD, provides the capability to configure and control the SU. The syntax of the data entry must be followed exactly as shown. When a string of characters is shown in this document with quotation marks around it (such as ip), do not type the quotation marks. When the letter x is shown within the quotation marks, this represents a number that the operator will select based on other factors. When the word (enter) is shown, this indicates pressing of the Enter (or Return) key on your keyboard. Wherever there are spaces shown in the syntax of a command, include these spaces. Commands are case sensitive. Unpacking the System Pay close attention to how units are packed before unpacking. SEE PHOTO BELOW AND NEXT PAGE FOR CLARIFICATION Unpacking should be in the following steps:
a. Remove power supply units b. Remove small metal brackets 3-1 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T c. Remove all cables and small hardware d. Remove SU Figure 3-1: Subscriber Unit Kit 3-2 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Mechanical Considerations Mounting Units The outdoor component of the Subscriber Unit (SU) is designed to directly mount a pole. Using optional mounting brackets, the SU can be mounted to a wall or other flat surface. Using the supplied U-bolts, the SU will mount to a 1-1/4 inch to 2 inch pole diameter (outside diameter). To mount to pole diameters up to 3 inches, other U-bolt sizes may be used. For mounting to a flat surface, attach mounting bracket to the SU using bolts supplied, and then mount to flat surface using your own hardware. For mounting directly to a 1-1/2 inch or 1-3/4 inch pole, first attach the supplied mounting bracket to the pole using the U-bolt retainer. Then attach the SU to the mounting bracket, and lock into position by tightening the 10-32 screws. See photos below for detail. Connect the weatherproof RJ45 connector. The RJ45 connector does not click into the receptacle; it is held into place by the screw-on cap. The following U-Bolt kits enable mounting to other than a standard size pole:
U-BOLT, 1 1 1/2" SCH 40 PIPE, 5/16-18 THD, ZINC/STEEL U-BOLT, 1 1/4 - 1 3/4" SCH 40 PIPE, 5/16-18 THD, ZINC/STEEL U-BOLT, 1 1/2 - 2" SCH 40 PIPE, 5/16-18 THD, ZINC/STEEL U-BOLT, 2 2 1/2" SCH 40 PIPE, 5/16-18 THD, ZINC/STEEL U-BOLT, 2 1/2 - 3" SCH 40 PIPE, 5/16-18 THD, ZINC/STEEL For mounting to a flat surface, attach mounting bracket to the CPE using bolts supplied, and then mount to flat surface using your own hardware.

Subscriber Unit Configuration
CONNECT ALL CABLES BEFORE PLUGGING INTO AC POWER
DISCONNECT AC POWER FIRST BEFORE REMOVING THE CABLE BETWEEN THE POWER SUPPLY AND THE OUTSIDE UNIT (ODU). ONLY THEN APPLY AC POWER The README text file provides detailed instructions on how to launch the installation program. After flowing the directions, click on the Settings tab for the following set-up screen to appear:
The Ethernet configured to 100Base-T, or 10/100Base-T (recommended). Interface may be 10Base-T, auto-negotiated use If the BSU frequency is known, setting to that value (instead of Auto) will reduce the chance of acquiring an undesired BSU. Select Off if the beeper is not desired to indicate signal-strength. Select Save Settings and Install to start the wireless network connection. Note: Any Settings are only saved if either Save Settings button is selected. 3-7 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T If the Frequency Plan is set to a fixed channel setting, it must be the same as the Base Station and the following warning will be displayed. Press OK to continue. After selecting Save Settings and Install Subscriber Unit, the following screen appears and the SU searches for an outbound signal from a Base Station. Point the SU in the direction of the BSU. Immediately after detecting a signal, a short tone will be heard, followed by a series of beeps indicating the strength of the BSUs signal. If a BSU signal is not detected, slowly move the pointing direction of the SU until the detection tone is heard. Then carefully center
(slowly move ODU both left & right) to the fastest repeating sound (beeps are almost continuous). This would be the optimum setting for the SUs ODU antenna. At the PC where the software was loaded, the following screen also provides a relative indication of the strength of the received signal which will coincide with the beeping being more rapid the more the Receive Signal Quality meter moves it bar to the right (Excellent). Note: If the time to align the SU takes more than 15 minutes, the audible sound will stop and the SU will attempt to connect with the BSU. If more than 15 minutes is required, disconnect and reconnect the power at the indoor power supply (brick) to reset the 15-minute timer and re-start the above process. 3-8 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T After maximizing the signal strength, click OK to continue the process of establishing the wireless connection. The Status screen is displayed and the progress of the connection with the BSU is shown in the Operating Status line. Other communication link details are also shown. The following are the typical series that would be encountered during the set-up and antenna alignment stages:
1) ODU not connected until the SU cable is connected and power is applied. 2) Searching for outbound point the SU to find a signal. 3) Outbound detected point the SU to maximize the signal strength. 3-9 4) Searching for inbound T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Note:
Either the Installation screens on the previous page or the Utility screen to the left will continuously indicate the operating status of the communication situation. It is suggested that the Status screen be used until the signal is peaked before selecting the Status screen. While in the connection process, the line to the left of status rotates to indicate continuous process action. 5) Inbound acquired - this may show only for a short moment. 6) Link established -congratulations the link is ready!
Note:
If Searching for outbound and Outbound detected are alternately viewed, and the status never gets to the Searching for inbound step, the BSU is not acquirable with enough signal level from the Subscriber Unit. If the message Network control message not received, this could be for the same reason as stated above. 3-10 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T To determine connection with host and/or Internet Use the ARP command in a DOS window: type arp a (without the quotes) and receive a response with IP address and MAC address, you are connected. In addition you can use the PING command if you where given an IP address of a router or PC to query.

ODU (J1) to Power Adapter Interface (J1) The ODU J1 is an RJ-45 receptacle and the Power Adapter J1 connector is an 8-pin DIN female receptacle. The functional and electrical interface is specified in Table 4-1 and Figures 4-2, 4-3, 4-4 and 4-5. Figure 4-3: Subscriber Unit Cable Detail Figure 4-4: ODU Interface (J1) If necessary to install or replace this connector, first put over the raw cable the plastic parts in the order seen above. Then crimp on the properly prepared CAT5 (or better) cable the RJ45 connector per the pin-out in Table 4-1. Then slide the plastic housing over the RJ45 connector being sure to align the RJ45 clip into the proper side. Tighten down the back of the connector for weather sealing and so the cable does not slip. Finally, install the O-ring between the RJ45 connector and the knurled knob which will be screwed tightly onto the connector on the back of the ODU after the RJ45 connector is properly seated. 4-2 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Figure 4-5: Power Adapter Interface (J1) If necessary to install or replace the above DIN connector, first put over the raw cable the plastic parts in the order seen above and crimp the pins on the properly prepared wire ends. Then slide the plastic housing over the metal part of the DIN connector being sure to align it. This connector is then ready to plug into the Power Brick inside. Alternative Method of Connection Another method that is acceptable is to use what are called jelly beans or Telephone Wire Tap Connectors. These moisture resistant and easy to install devices have been used by the telephone industry for years both indoors and out (for this installation, recommendation is for using only indoors). These can be purchased at many electronic supply stores worldwide including Radio Shack (part #64-3081), Tandy or through most well stocked DYI stores. For this method, you will need eight (8) of these devices per cable. Self-stripping tap connectors permit a continuous feed or loop without interruptions and let you splice wires without cutting any conductors. The connectors can be used with 19-26 gauge wire and resist moisture. Where you had to cut the cable for entry or egress, strip back the outer CAT5 cable jacket about two (2) inches on each side of the cut do not strip the individual wires leaving bare copper! Into each 2-wire Tap Connector, push in the like colored wires from each cable end firmly and equally into the Tap. While holding the wires in firmly, squeeze the button with wide pliers to equally force the button into the Tap. If properly done, the button will now be flush with the rest of the Tap Connector body and the two wires will not pull out. Continue with the installation of seven (7) more of these Taps being sure that each wire from the ends of each severed cables match exactly in color per each Telephone-type Wire Tap Connector. Refer to the table below that provides the details on each of the eight (8) wires that will need to be spliced from one cable to the like color on the other cable. After successfully installing the wire tap devices, the severed cable will carry the Ethernet and voltages necessary for operation. 4-3 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Table 4-1: ODU to Power Adapter Interface Cable Definition.

The SU ODU hardware contains a unique MAC ID that is used for its Ethernet address. NETWORK MODES The SU supports the following three network operating modes: IP routing, Ethernet bridging, and Ethernet bridging with VLAN tagging. These modes are defined below. The Base Station controls the network mode, and the SU follows. Network Mode IP Routing Ethernet Bridging Ethernet Bridging with VLAN Tagging Description The SU asserts itself as the network gateway, and accepts for transmission all IP packets that are not meant for the local network. Similarly, the SU filters the downlink packets and selects only IP packets with destinations that are known to be local. Local IP addresses are either statically programmed into the SU, or are learned by gleaning DHCP messages and upstream traffic. The SU accepts for uplink transmission all Ethernet packets with destination addresses that are not on the local network as learned from observing the source addresses. Similarly, the SU filters the downlink packets and selects only packets with local Ethernet destinations that have been learned by observing local source addresses. The SU operates similar to the Ethernet bridging mode, but tags uplink packets with a VLAN ID provided by the BSU. The SU removes VLAN tags from downlink Ethernet packets that are selected for output. NETWORK CONFIGURATIONS The SU is compatible with the network configurations shown in Figure 4-6. An external hub or switch is required to provide Ethernet communications to more than one host device; a host may be a computer, VoIP terminal, or other terminal that has an IP and Ethernet MAC address. Each host device must be on the same subnet when the IP-routing mode is used. A server, or router, implementing Network Address Translation (NAT) protocols allows a single IP address of the wireless network to be used to connect multiple devices. When Ethernet bridging mode without VLAN-tagging enabled is used, a VLAN switch can be connected to separate several VLANs through a single SU. When VLAN-tagging is enabled, a VLAN switch is not necessary and a conventional hub or server can be used; however, the SU will filter tags for only a single VLAN.

Problem Solution Section Problem:
ODU not connected is displayed. Possible Causes:
Cable from power brick to ODU not connected
Power brick not turned on
Cable from power brick to PC is not connected, or is a cross-over cable
(should be straight) Recommended Actions:
Recheck cable connections and wiring for cuts, etc. If possible, use another cable assembly and re-try. Use a straight if crossed, and vice versa for the cable between the power brick and your PC or LAN. Problem:
Outbound detection does not occur, or Searching outbound is displayed permanently. 5-1 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Possible Causes:
Improper radio settings (e.g. frequency plan or channel)
Signal blockage, severe path fading, or antenna misalignment
Interference (other 5.3/5.8 GHz transmitters nearby) Recommended Actions:
Recheck subscriber unit set-up, etc. Redo the antenna alignment and be sure to swing the antenna left and right significantly to be sure you are acquiring the best signal level (go from no signal in each direction and center between these two positions). May need to mount the ODU in a different location if the signal is marginal (below 50) or is fluctuating (not a steady value). Check to be sure the antenna is pointed to the intended BSU for the area. Problem:
Status alternates between Searching outbound and Outbound detection. Possible Causes:
Burst rate of the outbound signal exceeds the burst rate limit of the SU Recommended Actions:
Upgrade to a faster model See if there is another BSU available with a compatible burst rate Problem:
Inbound detection does not occur Possible Causes:
Interference at the BSU 5-2 T S U N A M I M U L T I P O I N T Recommended Actions:
If accompanied by weak Receiver Signal Quality, the path loss may be excessive due to foliage blockage, severe fading, or antenna misalignment. Problem:
Inbound acquired displayed, but Link established does not occur Possible Causes:
BSU does not have the SUs Ethernet Address in its authentication table
The SU has been moved and the BSU range security feature is enabled. Recommended Actions:
BSU operator must add the SU Ethernet Address The BSU operator must reset the range-security lockout for the SU settings
