F23, 2.3002.400 GHz F24, 2.4002.4835 GHz F25, 2.4962.690 GHz F49, 4.9404.990 GHz F53, 5.2505.350 GHz F54, 5.4705.725 GHz F58, 5.7255.850 GHz F59, 5.8655.935 GHz Several special systems are also available;

WL1000-AIND, All Indoor unit, F58/FCC with 4T1 support. WL1000-AIND integrates the ODU and the IDU-C into a single 19"

IDU-C box. WL1000-ACCESS, Ethernet only units powered over the Ethernet via PoE unit. Available in F23, F24, or F58 frequency ranges. WL1000-ACCESS-CL, ODU is equipped with special hardware for the collocation of several units, using Hub Site Synchronization

(HSS). Wireless Link WinLink 1000 delivers up to 48 Mbps air rate for Ethernet and E1/T1 traffic. The system supports a variety of spectrum bands and can be configured to operate in any channel in the band with a carrier step resolution of 5, 10, or 20 MHz (2.x GHz versions support TDM at 10 or 20 MHz only). WinLink 1000 operation complies with ETSI, CSA, CN, UK, and the FCC 47CFR Part 15 and subpart C and E requirements. WinLink 1000 employs Time Division Duplex (TDD) transmission. This technology simplifies the installation and configuration procedure. There is no need to plan and to allocate separate channels for the uplink and downlink data streams. Features 1-2 Overview WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction Operation over 2.4 GHz and 5.x GHz bands is not affected by harsh weather conditions, such as fog, heavy rain etc. LAN Interface The WinLink 1000 LAN port provides 10/100BaseT interfaces with autonegotiation and transparent VLAN support. Traffic handling is provided by a MAC-level self-learning bridge. Overview 1-3 Chapter 1 Introduction WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual TDM Interface The WinLink 1000 TDM interface accepts E1 or T1 traffic, supporting the following:

Unframed operation (E1 and T1) AMI and B8ZS zero suppression (T1). Advanced Encryption System WinLink 1000 (version 1.500 and above) ensures user's data security with one of the most sophisticated commercially available combined encryption and authentication techniques, CCM/AES. This technique combines message authentication (preventing antispoofing and replay protection) with commercial encryption, and complies with the IEEE 802.11i (phase iii) security recommendations. CCM/AES uses a symmetric 128-bit encryption key (EK), and a nonce, and provides both message encryption and authenticating signature. The nonce mechanism enables the receiver to remember already received genuine messages and reject all replayed messages. Initial encryption and authentication is based on a user-defined master key (Link Password). While standard Wireless LAN encrypts only the Ethernet Payload, WinLink 1000 encrypts both the source and destination MAC addresses. Management WinLink 1000 has full local and remote management capabilities. The user-friendly SNMP-based management tool provides full end-to-end configuration, event log and performance monitoring capabilities. Alternatively each site can be configured or monitored via a Telnet terminal. Diagnostics and Performance Monitoring WinLink 1000 supports activating local and remote loopbacks on E1/T1 links. WinLink 1000 constantly monitors the data transmission process, evaluates received signal strength, and signal quality. It also monitors received traffic and frame rate (FPS) for local and remote units. 1-4 Overview WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction Automatic Channel Select Some versions of WinLink 1000 have the Automatic Channel Select feature, which operates via a Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) mechanism. This enables coexistence with any radar system that may be active in the area. WinLink 1000 performs channel monitoring and selects the channel with the lowest interference for the transmission. WinLink 1000 operation complies with ETSI requirements where the ETSI version has been purchased. Adaptive Modulation WinLink 1000 changes modulation automatically depending on channel characteristics in order to guarantee continuation of service. The adaptive modulation enables the user to maximize Ethernet throughput without degradation of the TDM service quality. When Ethernet only service is used, the adaptive modulation enables improving the Ethernet performance in case of air performance degradation (periodical interference or RSS changes). In case of interference at one site, there is no need to use a lower modulation at the other site (as in previous versions). In such a case the actual rate changes automatically only at the problematic site, while the second side of the link maintains the highest possible rate

(Asymmetric). Adaptive modulation can be selected in both Installation and Configuration wizards. Transmit Power Control The Transmit Power Control (TPC) function, provides the capability of defining the transmit power in order to comply with the ETSI standard requirement of 30 dB maximum. See Table 4-1 for full details of transmit power control. Alarm Connector The IDU-C has eight external alarm inputs and outputs in the form of dry-contact relays. The Alarm interface is located on the front panel of the IDU-C. The user enables or disables each of the alarms and configures the text that appears in the alarm trap. The ODU sends the alarm within less than a second from actual alarm trigger. Overview 1-5 Chapter 1 Introduction WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual The alarm connector is available as an ordering option for the IDU-E. Link Compatibility WinLink 1000 indicates the version compatibility via software traps. As new hardware is added to existing networks compatibility issues may arise. Trap messages indicate the problem and suggest upgrades as appropriate. Optional External Antenna WinLink 1000 supports configuration of an external antenna. In this configuration, the outdoor unit is supplied with an N-type connector that connects through a coax cable to the external antenna. An external antenna can extend the range of the link, and in some cases, may help to reduce environmental interferences. Various external antennas are available for the WinLink 1000 operating frequencies. For example, an optional flat panel 28 dBi external antenna increases the operation range of WinLink 1000 up to 80 km (50 miles). Hub Site Synchronization When several WinLink 1000 units are collocated at a common hub site interference may occur from one unit to another. WinLink 1000 ODU units are supplied with special hardware for the collocation of up to eight units. Using a method called Hub Site Synchronization (HSS) an external cable is connected to all collocated WinLink 1000 ODUs, this cable carries pulses sent to each ODU, which synchronize their transmission with each other. (See Appendix F for more details). E1 Trunk Redundancy IDU-R units have a secondary E1 input which may be connected to external equipment other than the ODU. This provides backup in the event of failure of either the air interface link of the WinLink 1000, or the secondary E1 link. The user configures which of the two links is the main link and which is the backup link. 1-6 Overview WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction 1.2 Physical Description WinLink 1000 system may consist of an Outdoor Unit (ODU) and an Indoor Unit, which may be an IDU-E or an IDU-C.; an All Indoor Unit, AIND; or an all outdoor unit O-PoE, housed in a weather proof enclosure.

24 Mbps The default rate is Adaptive. ACCESS versions only operate in Adaptive mode. Adaptive Modulation - The system changes modulation automatically depending on channel characteristics in order to guarantee continuation of service. The adaptive modulation enables the user to maximize Ethernet throughput without degradation of the TDM service quality. When Ethernet only service is used, the adaptive modulation enables improving the Ethernet performance in case of air performance degradation (periodical interference or RSS changes). In event of interference at one site, there is no need to use a lower modulation at the other site (as in previous versions). In such a case the actual rate changes automatically only at the problematic site, while the second side of the link maintains the highest rate possible

(Asymmetric). Adaptive modulation can be changed in both Installation and Configuration wizards. 3. Type in the distance between the sites. If TDM services are selected, then the Evaluate icon shows on the screen whilst the maximum rate is evaluated. When evaluation is complete the icon changes and the following message is shown:

To set Date and time The ODU maintains a date and time value. The date and time value should be synchronized with any Network Time Protocol (NTP) version 3 compatible server1. On power-up the ODU configures the initial date and time using an NTP server. If the server IP is not configured or is not reachable, a default time is set. When configuring the NTP server IP, you should also configure the offset from the Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). If there is no server available, you can either set the date and time, or you can set the manager workstation time. Note that manual setting is not recommended since reset, power up, or synchronization with an NTP server will override the setting. The NTP uses UDP port 123. If a firewall is configured between the ODU and the NTP serer this port must be opened v 2. It can take up to 8 minutes for the NTP to synchronize the ODU date and time. Note 1.

Preferences Dialog Box, Event Log Tab Monitoring Performance 5-5 Chapter 5 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual 5.3 Viewing Performance Reports The Performance Monitor Report displays performance views of each of the interfaces1 (see Figure 5-4). Several performance data are collected for each of the interfaces (ES, SES, and UAS), as well as Specific data per Interface type (e.g., TX and RX bytes for Ethernet). For the Air Interface, user defined thresholds data are collected. Refer to Table 5-1 and Table 5-2. Data is collected and selectively displayed based on three time intervals as selected by the Interval radio buttons:

Current (t=0) 15 minutes Intervals Daily. UAS This parameter counts the time the air link was not providing any service. There are several potential reasons for this situation; one of the sites has a power failure, high interference, maintenance operation etc. Radio BBER Threshold This parameter counts the seconds in which the radio performance is below a user specified threshold. The threshold is measured in percent. The threshold can be set from 0.1%

up to 50%. For links with E1/T1 service the recommended value is 1% (system default). Excellent TDM service is expected below the 1% threshold, meaning that for 1% threshold, the expected BBER value should be 0 if there are no problems during the 15 min interval. If the BBER threshold increases some degraded service might be noticed. For links with Ethernet only service, 8% threshold is recommended and not 1% meaning that for 8% threshold, the recommended BBER value should be 0 if there are no problems during the 15 min interval. Since WinLink 1000 provides a loss less Ethernet service, there is throughput degradation in case of interference. The degradation is proportional to the BBER. Radio RSS Threshold can also be used to indicate problems in the radio channel. After verifying the RSS according to the link budget calculator 1 Ethernet performance is not collected in PoE systems. 5-6 Viewing Performance Reports WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 5 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting during the installation. A value of -5dB from the current RSS is recommended as a threshold. Figure 5-4.

If one ODU has an old software version, perform a software upgrade. It is important to configure the new ODU exactly the same as the old ODU to avoid configuration mismatches, which will disrupt the link. An ODU may be replaced with a new ODU in one several ways. Use the backup If a backup of the configuration is available, restore that configuration using Configuration > Configure site > Restore. Manual Configuration The new ODU can be configured manually according to the link configuration, remember to use the same settings for SSID, channels, link password, IP addresses, and names. Restore Factory Setup From version 1.6xx the feature of Restore Factory Setup is Replacing an ODU 5-19 Chapter 5 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual available. Using this feature we recommend putting the remaining ODU back to factory setup Configuration>Configure site>Advance option, and then activate the second ODU reconfiguring the link from scratch. Option number 3 is our recommended option preventing configuration mismatches. Frequently Asked Questions 5.10 Q: What performance issues will arise due to environmental conditions?

A: WinLink 1000 is not sensitive to environmental conditions. However if heavy rain or snowfall is expected ensure the performance by allowing a higher fade margin in the link budget planning calculations. Q: When using the WinLink 1000, what is the potential for interference between our system and other cellular or wireless Networks devices?

A: The WinLink 1000 is a robust system. However since it operates in unlicensed band there maybe some interference. Nevertheless, the fact that we can manually set the frequency gives us the flexibility to find a clear channel. In addition each WinLink 1000 link uses unique user configurable SSID code. Q: What protocol does the WinLink 1000 use, i.e. 802.11?

A: WinLink 1000 uses a proprietary protocol; this protocol contains improved options that more efficiently support the clock reconstruction from the TDM services. Q: What type of security is offered on WinLink 1000?

A: WinLink 1000 has three levels of security:

1. AES hardware mechanism 2. Each unit uses a unique SSID link-specific code (up to 24 alphanumeric characters) 3. Proprietary protocol protects from eavesdropping from other systems. 5-20 Frequently Asked Questions WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 5 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Q: Can we use horizontal and vertical polarization on the same frequency to double the number of wireless links?

A: Installing two WinLink 1000 systems in the same band with cross polarization provides 2025 dB separations. Nevertheless, since there are reflections, the cross polarization separation is decreased and spatial separation is recommended. Q: Could you add the frequency of 5.735 to the manual selection in order to increase the number of 20 MHz channels to six?

A: Currently the system provides fixed channels, with one manual frequency setting. The manual setting provides flexibility of spectrum selection, including 5.735 MHz. Q: Can we mange WinLink 1000 using SNMPc other than the supplied management software that comes with the units?

Fresnel Zone C.3 Using the Link Budget Calculator The Link Budget Calculator comprises of one table where all the link parameters are defined.

To calculate the link budget 1. Select your system product from the dropdown list of products. 2. Select the rate from the dropdown list. The rate defines the air-

interface rate in Mbps. The system operates in TDD mode and has overhead of the air-interface protocol and therefore the accurate actual throughput is provided in the Service Row and the effective Ethernet throughput is provided in the Ethernet Rate. Note Throughput can be decreased as a function of range due to propagation delay. The remaining fields are completed automatically depending on the product selected in the product field. Standard WinLink 1000 system parameters are entered as default. Fields in blue boxes may be edited if non-standard antennas and cables are used. The Fade margin is the minimum margin that is required for LOS conditions. For degraded link conditions, a larger fade margin should be taken into account. The Tx power EIRP for the system is given in dBm and Watts. C-6 Using the Link Budget Calculator WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual Appendix C Link Budget Calculator 3.

WinLink 1000 Using the Link Budget Calculator C-7 Appendix D AIND Antenna Alignment Procedure Use this procedure when using the all indoor system WinLink 1000-

ANID or manually aligning two WinLink 1000 units. To achieve the best benefit and link budget from the WinLink installation, the link antennas must be aligned; the two antennas should exactly face each other. In order to achieve the best performance, the line of sight must be as clear as possible with no obstructions between the two sites. Prior to attempting WinLink alignment, install the hardware and software in accordance with the WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual. Figure D-1 shows the link setup. At least two people are needed to perform the alignment procedures. Once the alignment is complete, you are able to evaluate the quality of the link. Site A AirMux IDUx IDUx Site B Figure D-1. WinLink 1000 Link Setup Expected Signal Level D-1 Appendix D AIND Antenna Alignment Procedure WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual D.1 Expected Signal Level Based on the link budget parameters of the actual WinLink sites, you need to calculate the expected signal level that will be received by the receiving site. Use the Link Budget Calculator utility supplied on the WinLink 1000 Manager Software CD-ROM to calculate the expected performance of the WinLink 1000 wireless link. The utility allows you to determine the RSS of the link, and find the number of E1/T1 services available at various data rates, with the minimum and maximum distance. D.2 Performing WinLink 1000-AIND Alignment The supervisor of the antenna alignment is situated at the receive site with the Spectrum Analyzer. Equipment Setup

To set up the antenna alignment equipment:

1. Coarsely align the two antennas. Use the compass readings taken during the Site Survey to point the antennas in the correct direction. 2. Connect the equipment as shown in Figure D-1 but connect a spectrum analyzer in place of the remote WinLink 1000-AIND. 3. Turn on the CW transmit signal from site A (from the WinLink 1000 NMS). 4. 4. At site B, tune the SA to the frequency transmitted. 5. 5. Increase the SA sensitivity according to the expected receive signal. Align the antennas:

Note When one antenna is moved, the opposite ite is passive Move the antennas very slowly 1. Slowly move the site B antenna azimuth axis (the elevation axis s should be locked) until you see the best signal on the SA Lock the azimuth axis. D-2 Performing WinLink 1000-AIND Alignment WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual Appendix D AIND Antenna Alignment Procedure 2. Slowly move the site A antenna azimuth axis (the elevation axis should be locked) until you see the best signal on the SA. Lock the azimuth axis. 3. Slowly move the site B antenna elevation axis (the azimuth axis should be locked) until you see the best signal on the SA. Lock the elevation axis. 4. Slowly move the site A antenna elevation axis (the azimuth axis should be locked) until you see the best signal on the SA. Lock the elevation axis. 5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 until the reading on the SA is equal or as close as possible to the calculated receive signal (for Rx Power Level see Expected Signal Level). When the SA reads the expected receive signal, the antennas are aligned and there is an indication of a good link between the sites. 6. Tighten the antenna azimuth axis and elevation axis. 7. Stop the CW function. The NMS will restart the system. 8. Connect WinLink 1000-AIND unit to external antenna. See WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual for details. The operational link is shown in Figure 2-3. 9. Configure WinLink 1000 NMS at both sites to operate at the pure channel frequency found in the RF survey. WinLink 1000 is now ready for operation. D.3 Configuring the Link 1. Run the Installation Wizard in the WinLink 1000 Manager Software to set the configuration of the link. Configure the link in accordance with the parameters calculated in the Link Budget Calculator. 2. WinLink 1000 has a unique identification number, the SSID. Each side of the link looks for its partner with the same SSID. Therefore both sides of the link must be configured with the same SSID. 3. The WinLink 1000 link is now ready for operation. Configuring the Link D-3 Appendix D AIND Antenna Alignment Procedure WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual D.4 Evaluating the Link With the link operating at a pure channel as determined by the RF survey procedure, the recommended performance threshold of an WinLink 1000 link is the following:

There are cases when there is no line of sight, but still the link is of an acceptable quality. If the link is not within the acceptable limit, see Troubleshooting. RSS: 84 dBm minimum D-4 Evaluating the Link WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual Appendix D AIND Antenna Alignment Procedure D.5 Troubleshooting If the link is not within the acceptable limit as defined in Evaluating the Link, check the following:

Verify that both antennas have the same polarization

(horizontal/vertical). Check all the WinLink 1000-AIND cable connectors for faulty connections. Verify that there are no obstacles in the Fresnel zone of the antenna path such as large buildings, trees, etc. Use a spectrum analyzer with suitable sensitivity to measure the signal at the distance between the sites. If nothing improves the receive power level, check the overall link. Reduce the distance of the linkmove the equipment from one site closer to the other sitewhere it is possible to actually see the antennas with the naked eye. If you now get the expected receive signal level, you can assume that the equipment is operational, and the problem arises from interference between the sites. Troubleshooting D-5 Appendix E Antenna Characteristics An antenna is the radiating and receiving element from which the radio signal, in the form of RF power, is radiated to its surroundings and vice versa. The transmission range is a function of the antenna gain and transmitting power. These factors are limited by country regulations. WinLink 1000 may be operated with an integrated antenna attached to the ODU unit, or with an external antenna wired to the ODU via an N-

type connector. All cables and connections must be connected correctly to reduce losses. The required antenna impedance is 50. Table E-1. Antenna Characteristics Type Gain

The relatively short wavelength of electromagnetic (radio) energy at these frequencies allows reasonably sized reflectors to exhibit the very desirable highly directional response for both receiving and transmitting. Used for 2.4 GHz applications. Due to the large size, the grid design minimizes weight and windloading. Parabolic Dish Antenna Grid Antenna E-2 Antenna Characteristics Appendix F Hub Site Synchronization Introduction F.1 HSS is an ordering option, WinLink 1000 ODU units are supplied with special hardware for the collocation of several units, using a method called Hub Site Synchronization (HSS). HSS uses an external cable connected to all collocated WinLink 1000 radios. This cable carries pulses sent to each radio, which synchronize their transmission with each other. This pulse synchronization ensures that the transmission of packets occurs at the same time for all collocated units. This synchronized transmission also results in all of the hub units receiving data at the same time, eliminating the possibility of interference that could result if some units transmit while other units at the same location receive. HSS supports installation of up to eight collocated units. Figure F-1 shows interference caused by non-synchronized collocated units. WinLink 1000 Introduction F-1 Appendix F Hub Site Synchronization Installation and Operation Manual Figure F-1. Interference caused by collocated units Figure F-2. Collocated units using Hub Site Synchronization F.2 Hardware Installation HSS supports installation of up to eight collocated units. In addition to each unit being connected to its IDU or PoE device, the collocated unit has an additional cable that is connected to the HSS Unit. The HSS Unit is a compact, weatherproof (IP67) connector box that is installed on the same mast as the ODUs. All collocated units connect to this box via CAT 5e cable. Prepared lengths are available for purchase. F-2 Hardware Installation WinLink 1000 Installation and Operation Manual Appendix F Hub Site Synchronization The HSS is supplied with ten protective covers; any port not in use must be closed with a protective cover. Figure F-3. HSS Interconnection Unit Note Ensure that the collocated units are connected in sequence from SYNC 1. If an ODU is removed form the hub site, then all remaining ODUs must be reconnected to maintain the connectivity.

To connect an ODU to the HSS 1. Unscrew the protective cover from the port marked SYNC 1. 2. Connect the RJ-45 connector from one end of the prepared CAT 5e cable to SYNC 1. 3. Connect the other end of the CAT 5e cable to the ODU connector labeled SYNC. 4. Tighten the protective seal that is on the prepared cable over the RJ-45 connector. 5. Repeat for all ODUs that are to be collocated at the hub site. The next ODU to be connected is inserted to SYNC 2, followed by SYNC 3 and so on. F.3 Architecture One of the collocated ODUs at the hub site acts as the Hub Sync Master

(HSM); all the other collocated units are Hub Sync Clients. The Hub WinLink 1000 Architecture F-3 Appendix F Hub Site Synchronization Installation and Operation Manual Sync Master generates the pulses that synchronize the timing of the Hub Sync Clients. A Hub Sync Client can be configured to be two different types:

Hub Sync ClientContinue Transmission (HSC-CT): In the event that the unit loses synchronization with the Hub Sync Master, the link remains active. However, without synchronization pulses, it is possible that this unit will cause interference. Hub Sync ClientDisable Transmission (HSC-DT): In the event that the unit loses synchronization with the Hub Sync Master, the link is dropped until the synchronization pulses resume. This setting prevents the unit from causing interference. The remote ODUs that are not located at the hub site, are called Independent Units and do not require HSS hardware. Figure F-4. HSS Typical Application Radio Frame Pattern Table F.4 The synchronization pulse is termed Radio Frame Pattern (RFP). Four RFP pulses are available. The RFP is selected depending on the type of services that the complete system is to provide see Table F-1. Select the RFP that gives you the Best Fit for the system services and select the Channel Bandwidth accordingly. The RFP must be the same for each link within the collocated system.
