10 Installing the SPR This chapter describes the installation of the WipLL Subscriber Premises Radio (SPR), located at the subscriber's premises. Warning: Cables with exposed ends (i.e., not yet crimped) should be covered with protective polythene bags during external cable installation processes. Warning: As the system emits microwave radiation, a minimum distance of 200 mm must be maintained from the front of the SPR. However, for the 700 MHz band (i.e. WipLL 700), when external antennas are used, a minimum distance of 800 mm must be maintained from the front of the device. Warning: To avoid electrical or fire hazard, connect the SPR to the power supply only after mounting the SPR and connecting data cables. Note: Usually, the SPR is initialized (i.e., configured with an IP address) at Airspan's factory. However, if the SPR has not been configured, see Section 10.5, “Connecting to a PC for Serial Configuration”, before mounting the SPR. 02030311-07 Airspan Networks Inc. 10-1 Installing the SPR Hardware Installation Guide Note: The digital portion of the transceiver has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is encouraged to try correct the interference by performing one or more of the following measures: - Reorientate or relocate the receiving antenna - Increase separation between the equipment and receiver - Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected - Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help Note: A minimum separation of 200 mm should exist between power and data cables. 10-2 Airspan Networks Inc. 02030311-07 Hardw are Installation Guide Installing the SPR 10.1.

Aligning Using the RSS LED Adapter You can align the SPR (or third-party antenna) using Airspan's RSS LED Adapter once the SPR has established a wireless link with the BSR. The RSS LED Adapter indicates the received signal strength (RSS) between the SPR and the BSR. This allows you to accurately position the SPR during installation for optimal radio frequency signal reception. The RSS LED adapter connects between the SPR and SDA by a CAT 5 cable. The RSS LED adapter provides two 15-pin D-type ports: one for the SPR side, and the other for the SDA side. The following table lists the RSS LED Plug adapter dimensions: Table 10-2: RSS LED adapter dimensions Parameter Dimensions Height 123 mm (4.84 inches) Width 68 mm (2.68 inches) Depth 30 mm (1.18 inches) Weight 85g The RSS LED adapter can be connected in one of the following manners: One end connects directly to the SPR’s 15-pin D-type port, while the other end connects to the SDA through a CAT 5 cable. Both ends (i.e., 15-pin D-type ports) connect to the SPR and SDA through a CAT 5 cable. 10-14 Airspan Networks Inc. 02030311-07 Hardw are Installation Guide Installing the SPR 15-pin D-type male connects to SPR side RSSI LED 8 RSSI LED 1 POWER LED 15-pin D-type female connects to SDA side Figure 10-12: RSS LED adapter The following describes the RSS LED adapter's cable setup: Cables: two straight-through cables for SPR-to-RSS LED adapter, and for SDAto-RSS LED adapter.

Connecting External Third-Party Antenna (Optional) The SPR model with an N-type connector can be connected to an external antenna. The addition of an external antenna allows greater RF sector coverage than the standard SPR internal antenna models (i.e., 60°). Cable: RF coaxial Connector: N-type male Warning: Before connecting the external antenna, ensure that the SPR is NOT connected to the power source. Warning: Before powering on the SPR, ensure that some type of equipment such as an antenna or an RF attenuator is connected to the N-type receptacle. This eliminates the risk of burning the SPR device. Warning: It is the responsibility of the person installing the WipLL system to ensure that when using the outdoor antenna kits in the United States (or where FCC rules apply), that only those antennas certified with the product are used. The use of any antenna other than those certified with the product is expressly forbidden in accordance with FCC rules CFR47 part 15.204. The installer should configure the output power level of antennas according to country regulations and per antenna type. Warning: In accordance with FCC regulations, ensure that for external antennas, the maximum EIRP is 36 dBm. The EIRP is defined as: Max. Power Output + Antenna Gain + Cable Loss ≤ 36 dBm (EIRP) 02030311-07 Airspan Networks Inc. 10-19 Installing the SPR Hardware Installation Guide To connect the SPR to an external antenna: Attach an N-type male connector of the third-party antenna to the N-type receptacle located on the SPR’s front panel. Figure 10-14: SPR model with N-type connector for attaching an external antenna Note: Airspan supplies unterminated cables for N-type connectors. Refer to Appendix B, “Cable Crimping" for N-type cable crimping. 10-20 Airspan Networks Inc. 02030311-07 Hardw are Installation Guide Installing the SPR 10.4. Connecting to the SDA The SPR’s power supply and connectivity to the subscriber’s Ethernet network is provided by the SDA. To connect the SPR to the SDA, you need to connect the SPR’s 15-pin D-type port to the SDA’s 15-pin D-type port using a CAT-5 cable. The SPR-to-SDA cable setup is as follows: Cable: straight-through 10Base-T Ethernet UTP 4 Pair CAT-5e 24 AWG outdoor type (100 meters) Connectors: SPR side: 15-pin D-type male (only 8 pins are used) SDA side: 15-pin D-type male (only 8 pins are used) Note: Airspan supplies unterminated CAT-5e cables. For a detailed description on crimping cables, see Appendix B, “Cable Crimping".

However, if you implement your company's wire color-coding scheme, ensure that the wires are paired and twisted according to the pin functions listed in Table 10-4 (e.g., Rx+ with Rx-). WipLL uses the following wire color-coding standard for CAT 5 cables (8 wires used) connecting the outdoor radio units to the indoor Ethernet hubs or switches: Figure 10-15: WipLL wire color-coding for 15-pin D-type connectors 10-22 Airspan Networks Inc. 02030311-07 Hardw are Installation Guide Installing the SPR Warning: To avoid electrical shock, before connecting the SPR to the SDA, ensure that the SDA is not connected to the power supply. Notes: 1) The wires are twisted together in pairs, for example, blue/white with blue, and orange/white with orange. This prevents electrical interference between the transmitter pins. For example, pin 3 (Tx+; orange / white) is paired and twisted with pin 4 (Tx-; orange). 2) The SDA connector pinouts are the same for all SDA models (SDA-1, SDA4H, SDA-4S, SDA-4S/VL, SDA-4S/Vltag, SDA-4S/1H3L, and SDA4S/VL/1H3L). To connect the SPR to the SDA (see Figure 10-16): 1. Connect the 15-pin D-type connector, at one end of the CAT 5 cable, to the SPR’s 15-pin D-type port labeled DATA POWER SYNC. 2. Connect the 15-pin D-type connector, at the other end of the CAT 5 cable, to the SDA’s 15-pin D-type port. 02030311-07 Airspan Networks Inc. 10-23 Installing the SPR Hardware Installation Guide Figure 10-16: SPR-to-SDA cable connections Note: The maximum cable length permissible between the SPR and SDA is 100 meters. 10-24 Airspan Networks Inc. 02030311-07 Hardw are Installation Guide Installing the SPR 10.5. Connecting to a PC for Serial Configuration To configure an SPR, you need to connect a PC running the WipLL WipConfig configuration tool to the SPR. The SPR’s 15-pin D-type port also provides serial interface to a PC for SPR initial configuration. This port uses 9 of its 15 pins for serial interface; the remaining pins are used for interfacing with the SDA with which the SPR remains connected. To connect the SPR to the management station (i.e., PC) and the SDA, a Y-cable (splitter) is used. Note: SPR configuration is performed while the SPR is connected to the SDA. The SPR-to-PC and SDA cable connections for SPR serial configuration are as follows: Connectors: SPR side: 15-pin D-type male (only 9-pins used) PC side: 9-pin D-type (RS-232) SDA side: 15-pin D-type male Cable: straight-through Y-cable 02030311-07 Airspan Networks Inc. 10-25 Installing the SPR Hardware Installation Guide Figure 10-17: Y-cable for serial connection Connector pinouts: Table 10-5: Y-cable SPR-to-SDA connector pinouts SPR 15-pin D-type male 10-26 Pin SDA Function Pin Function 0 VDC +48 VDC +48 VDC -48 VDC Ethernet Tx+ Rx+ Ethernet Tx- Rx- Ethernet Rx+ Tx+ Ethernet Rx- Tx- Hop Sync+ Sync.+ Hop Sync- Sync.- Airspan Networks Inc. 15-pin D-type male 02030311-07 Hardw are Installation Guide Installing the SPR Table 10-6: Y-cable SPR-to-PC connector pinouts SPR 15-pin D-type male Pin PC Function Pin Function 12 GND GND 14 RS232 Rx Rx 15 RS232 Tx Tx 9-pin D-type female The Y-cable connector pin assignments are displayed schematically in Figure 10-18.
