This section explains how to prepare the installation site. An exploded view of the router assembly is shown in Figure 1. Note Operating the unit with non-qualified antennas is a violation of U.S. FCC Rules Part 15.203(c), Code of Federal Regulations, Title 47. Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 14 Chapter 2 FIGURE 1 Tropos 6410/ 6420 Router Exploded View 2.4 GHz Tx/Rx 2.4 GHz Tx/Rx 5 GHz Tx/Rx 5 GHz Tx/Rx Router Clamps Mounting bracket Pole bracket Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 15 Chapter 2 Installation Hardware and Tools The following installation accessories are included in the shipping package: One pole bracket Two 4-inch diameter clamps Two 6-inch diameter clamps Five 5/16-inch #10-32 stainless steel hex head machine screws You must supply the following tools: Level 5/16-inch nut driver 1/4-inch flat blade screwdriver Tower mounting only: stainless or galvanized steel pipe and 1/2-inch or 5/8-inch nuts, bolts, and washers to connect to the tower arm. Wood pole mounting only: one 1/4-inch diameter, 3 1/2-inch long lag bolt Site Planning To ensure safe and durable wiring, router installation must follow appropriate electrical and building codes. Follow all local codes and regulations. For example in the U.S., follow the National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements, unless local codes in your area take precedence over the NEC code. The maximum length of Cat 5 cable for 10BaseT, 10/100BaseT, and 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet connections is 300 feet (90 meters). The Ethernet duplex and speed setting is configurable. Note The U.S. National Electrical Codes (NEC) Article 800 requires the use of Agency Listed (UL/CSA/TUV) Building Entrance Protector for all power and data communications cables entering a building. The NEC intends by Article 800 to protect the building and occupants from fires caused by transient voltage and current surges. Note Ethernet data cable installations having lengths greater than 140 feet in the outdoor environment must use a UL497 approved (UL/CSA/TUV Listed) primary protection device at the building entrance. Ethernet data cable installations having lengths less than 140 feet in the outdoor environment may use a UL497A (UL/ CSA/TUV Listed) secondary protection device at the building entrance. Tropos Data Protection Device and Network Protection Units are UL497A secondary protection devices. Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 16 Chapter 2 Location Guidelines Tropos routers are radio devices and therefore susceptible to interference that can reduce throughput and range. Follow these guidelines to ensure the best performance: Install the unit in an area where trees, buildings, and large steel structures do not obstruct radio signals to and from the antenna. Direct line-of-sight operation is best. Install the unit away from possible sources of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz interference, such as cordless phones, wireless cameras, frequency hopping (FHSS) and DSSS LAN transceivers (non-802.11), electronic news gathering video links, radars, amateur radios, land mobile radio services, local government sites (such as law enforcement), fixed microwave services, local TV transmission, and private fixed point transmitters. Site Surveys Due to variations in component configuration, placement, and physical environment, each installation is unique. Before installing routers, perform a site survey to determine the optimum placement of units for maximum range, coverage, and network performance. Consider the following factors when performing a site survey: Data rates—Sensitivity and range are inversely proportional to data bit rates. The maximum radio range is achieved at the lowest workable data rate. A decrease in receiver threshold sensitivity occurs as radio data rate increases. Antenna orientation—Proper antenna orientation is a critical factor in maximizing radio range. As a general rule, range increases in proportion to gain and antenna height measured from the ground. The Tropos 6410 and 6420 routers have integrated antennas; therefore, antenna location and orientation depend on the location of the unit. Physical environment—Clear or open areas provide better radio range than closed or filled areas. The less cluttered the operating environment, the greater the range. Obstructions—A physical obstruction, such as a building or tree, can block or hinder communication. Avoid locating antennas in a location where there is an obstruction between sending and receiving devices. Building materials—Radio penetration is influenced by the building material used in construction. For example, drywall construction permits greater range than concrete blocks. Safety Installing the routers can pose a serious hazard. Be sure to take precautions to avoid the following: Exposure to high voltage lines during installation Falls when working at heights or with ladders Injuries from dropping tools and equipment Contact with AC power wiring Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 17 Chapter 2 Mounting Strategies When choosing mounting locations, consider the available mounting structures and antenna clearance. The router should always be mounted with the top of the unit horizontal and level and with the antennas facing upward. It is usually best to attach ground and data cables to the router prior to mounting. Before mounting the router, review the wiring instructions in “Grounding the Router” on page 34 and “Connecting Data and Power Cables” on page 29 to determine the best strategy for the selected location. Note To eliminate potential interference from the mounting structure, the router should be mounted with at least 4 feet of clearance around the antennas. Acceptable options for mounting on a streetlight are shown in Figure 2. In each case the router is mounted to assure clearance for the antennas above the height of the streetlight. FIGURE 2 Example Mounting Location - Antennas Facing Upward Antennas clear of obstruction Antennas clear of obstruction Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 18 Chapter 2 Proper Use of Clamps The mounting assembly contains two clamps to secure the router to the mounting structure. Figure 3 illustrates the proper use of the clamps. The clamps must be routed through slots in the pole bracket as shown in the figure, and then attached to the pole and tightened. The pole bracket should be leveled before it is secured to the pole. FIGURE 3 Proper Use of the Clamps Clamps Mounting bracket Band goes behind inner tabs Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 Pole bracket 19 Chapter 2 Pole, Tower, and Streetlight Mounting Instructions This section explains how to mount the router on a pole, tower, or streetlight. It is best to mount the router to aluminum or galvanized steel structures. The mounting brackets are designed to pierce any oxidation layers that are on the outside of the pole, thereby assuring good quality connection to the grounded structure. Due to potential antenna obstruction issues, the router is not designed to be directly mounted on a building wall. If it is necessary to mount the router on a wall, follow the instructions for mounting on a wooden pole (“Wood Pole Mounting” on page 24), and attempt to mount the router with maximum possible clearance around the antennas. Note The router should always be mounted with the top of the router horizontal and level and with the antennas facing upward. Note It is best to attach ground and data cables to the router before sliding the router into the mounting bracket, as explained in this section. Before mounting the router, review the wiring instructions in “Grounding the Router” on page 34 and “Connecting Data and Power Cables” on page 29 to determine the best strategy for the selected location. Note Mounting to wood, concrete, or painted poles may require primary grounding for the unit. Check the national electrical codes in your area for specific rules.

To continue installing the router, see the next section, “Connecting Data and Power Cables.” Connecting Data and Power Cables The router is equipped with two RJ45 ports. LAN. The port labeled LAN is a 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet port normally used for a network backhaul connection. The router can be powered over this port using industrystandard 802.3at PoE (Power over Ethernet) power (do not use any other form of PoE power on this port). This port can also be used to configure the router. MGT. The port labeled MGT is one of two types, depending on the specific Tropos 6410 or 6420 model. See the model number descriptions in “Tropos 6410 Router Product Summary” on page 11 and “Tropos 6420 Router Product Summary” on page 12. If you have any questions about models or configuration, contact Tropos Customer Support (tropos.support@nam.abb.com). — On some models the MGT port is a 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet port used for configuration and for connecting a wired Ethernet client to the router. — On some models the MGT port is a serial port that is capable of supporting RS-232 or RS-485 serial clients. The router can be powered over the MGT port using DC power in the range 11-55VDC (see pin assignments on the RJ-45 connector in Table 3). This section describes how to connect the Ethernet cables. Note The router is shipped pre-configured. For post-installation changes in configuration, you can communicate with the router by way of its wireless connection. For more information, see the Tropos Networks User Guide. Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 29 Chapter 2 Note Only use shielded Cat5, Cat5e, or Cat6 cable rated for outdoor use. For protection against risk of fire, electrical hazard and to ensure the reliable operation of this equipment, the shields of the Cat5 cable must be properly terminated and bonded to the unit and to the protective earth (PE) at the building entrance. Note National Electrical Codes (NEC) Article 800 requires the use of Agency Listed (UL/CSA) Building Entrance Protector for all power and communications cables entering a building.

Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 37 3 Installing Battery and Power Backup Accessories This chapter describes how to install battery and power backup accessories: “Introduction” on page 38 “Installing the PS079001” on page 40 “Installing the Battery Backup Unit” on page 44 Introduction The Tropos 6410 and 6420 routers are designed to operate from DC power sources. If DC power is not available, Tropos offers power solutions for the 6410 and 6420 for photocell and non-photocell applications and a battery backup unit that provides backup power for the routers. The following products are available. PS079001 - Outdoor PoE Injector, non-photocell The PS079001 is used for all non-streetlight applications. AC power is provided to the PS079001 using a PT031006 (6 feet) or PT031030 (30 feet) Tropos power cable. For streetlight installations where a photocell can be used as the AC power source, Tropos offers the PT021004 (4 feet) and PT021020 (20 feet) power cables. These cables have a photocell tap at one end and a connector on the other end to plug into the PS079001. The PS079001 can be mounted on the mounting bracket of the router or can be remotely mounted. The PS079001 provides an Ethernet port that connects to the MGT port on the router, allowing the router to function as a gateway. BB063001 - External Battery Backup Unit The BB063001 Battery Backup Unit (BBU) provides backup power for a Tropos 6410 or 6420 fixed router. The BB063001 requires the use of one of the two Tropos power supplies described above. The BB063001 can be mounted on the mounting bracket of the router (when a TLP4820 or PS079001 is used) or can be remotely mounted. The PS079001 provides an Ethernet port that connects to the MGT port on the router allowing the router to function as a gateway. Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 38 Chapter 3 The deployment scenarios are shown in Figure 14.
