Put the sealing cap back in its place to ensure protection against moisture. Make sure that the small protrusion on the side of the cap fits inside the hole on the connector’s protective body. 5. Use appropriate sealing material to protect the connection against moisture and humidity. Use high quality sealing material such as Scotch® 130C Linerless Rubber Splicing Tape from 3M to ensure IP-67 compliant protection against dust and water. 6. Route the cable to the location selected for the indoor equipment. 7. Assemble an RJ-45 connector with a protective cover on the indoor end of the ODU cable. Refer to the pin assignment and color codes in standard cables described below. IDU Installation 1. The unit can be placed on a desktop or a shelf. Alternatively, it may be wall-mounted. The drilling template included with the unit can be used to simplify the wall installation process. 2. Connect the ODU cable to the RADIO port. 3. Connect the indoor unit to the AC mains using the power cord supplied with the unit. NOTE: The indoor unit should be connected to the power source only after it has been connected to the outdoor unit. The color codes of the power cord are: Brown Phase ~ Blue Neutral 0 Yellow/green Grounding 4. Use a crossed Ethernet cable to connect the ETHERNET port to a Hub/Switch. Use a straight Ethernet cable to connect directly to a PC’s NIC. Basic Configuration 1. Initial configuration can be performed using either Telnet for accessing the Installer Monitor program or a web browser for accessing the built-in Web Configuration Server. 2. To configure parameters using Telnet, connect a PC/Notebook to the Ethernet port of the IDU, using a straight Ethernet cable. 3. To configure parameters using the Web Configuration Server, connect a PC/Notebook or a Pocket PC/PDA with a web browser to the Ethernet port of the IDU, using a straight Ethernet cable. 4. You can also connect directly to the ODU’s IDU COM, using the special Y-cable (see instructions below). 5. Configure the PC's IP parameters to enable connectivity with the unit. The IP address of the SU for local management access is 192.168.254.251. The Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. The recommended IP address for the PC is 192.168.254.250, as this is also the default TFTP Sever IP Address (required for downloading SW versions and for downloading/uploading configuration files). 6. Run the Telnet program or open a web browser, and connect to 192.168.254.251. The Enter the password prompt is displayed. Enter the password (the default password is “installer”) and press the Enter key. 7. Configure the basic parameters required for connectivity with the base station. The following table includes the basic parameters and their default values: Table 1: Basic Parameters Parameter Default Value Comment Ethernet Port auto Negotiation Enable/Disable Enabled Ethernet Port Speed and Duplex Applicable only if Ethernet Port Auto Negotiation Enable/Disable is set to Disable User Name Null Must be supplied by system administrator User Password Null Must be supplied by system administrator Organization Name Optional – according to administrator policy Address Optional– according to administrator policy Country Optional– according to administrator policy BST/AU ID 186.190.0.0.250.206 BST/AU ID Mask 255.255.255.0.0.0 Best BST/AU Support Disable Preferred BST/AU ID Preferred BST/AU ID Mask Bandwidth 3.5 MHz Scanning Start Frequency Depend on Radio Band and Bandwidth Scanning End Frequency Depend on Radio Band and Bandwidth Scanning Main Step 875 KHz Scanning Intermediate Steps Bits 0 to 7 0 for all eight bits Discrete Frequencies Null Rx Attenuator (2.3 GHz units only) 0

Point the antenna toward the general direction of the Base Station. 2. Connect the SAU to the ODU (optional) and verify that the PWR (power) indication on the SAU is on. 3. Verify that the unit is synchronized with a Base Station. If the SU is not synchronized with a Base Station, ensure that all parameters are configured properly. If the unit is still not synchronized with a Base Station, improve the quality of the link by changing the direction of the antenna or by placing the antenna at a higher or in an alternate location. 4. Rotate (and/or tilt if applicable) the ODU/antenna until the maximum link quality reading is achieved (SNR and RSSI, or when using SAU, the number of link quality LEDs). If you encounter prolonged difficulty in achieving the expected link quality, try to improve the reception quality by placing the antenna at a higher point or in an alternate location. 5. Ensure that the front of the antenna is always facing the Base Station. However, in certain conditions, such as when the line of site to the Base Station is hampered, better reception may be achieved using a reflected signal. In this case, the antenna is not always directed toward the Base Station. 6. Secure the unit firmly to the pole. NOTE: In some cases, the antenna may need to be tilted to ensure that the level at which the SU receives transmissions from the AU (and vice versa) is not too high. When all LINK QUALITY LEDS are on, including LED 10, this indicates that the received signal level is too high (saturation). This must be avoided, preferably by up-tilting the antenna. As a rule of thumb, if the SU is located at a distance of less than 300 meters from the AU, it is recommended to up-tilt the antenna by approximately 10° to 15°. Fast Configuration and Antenna Alignment Using the Y-Cable 1. Disconnect the IDU-ODU cable from the ODU. 2. Connect one end of the Y-cable to the ODU’s IDU COM connector. 3. On the other end of the Y-cable, connect a PDA/PC to the PDA connector and the IDU-ODU cable to the IDU connector. 4. From the Pocket PC/Notebook, connect to the SU and complete the process of configuring basic parameters. 5. Align the antenna using the instructions above. Verifying Proper Operation 1. Verify data connectivity by pinging the AU or by connecting to the Internet. 2. To verify proper operation of the SU, examine the LED indicators on the IDU: Table 2: IDU LEDs Name Description Functionality Power Power Indication  Off – IDU is not powered or power failed  Green – IDU power is OK Link Ethernet link status (Ethernet integrity)  Off – No Ethernet connectivity has been detected between the outdoor unit and the device connected to the indoor unit  Green – Ethernet connectivity has been detected between the outdoor unit and the device connected to the indoor unit 11a Wireless link status  Off – SU is not associated with an AU/μBST  Green – SU is connected with an AU/μBST * After power-up, the WIRELESS LED illuminates until self-test is finished. 3.
