8 SYSTEM OVERVIEW MicroMAX is a highly upgradeable Micro-cell base station, based on the Sequans System On a Chip (SOC), with a pole/roof (wall) mounted radio system and antennae. This high performance chip can support up to 28 + 28 MHz channels (full duplex) forms part of the AS.MAX portfolio of WiMAX network infrastructure equipment. It is compatible with the Airspan EasyST and ProST subscriber terminals and other manufacturer's CPEs that are fully WiMAX compliant. The MicroMAX BSR is an outdoor radio that is mounted outside on a pole or wall. The BSR provides a wireless link with subscribers and interfaces with the provider's backbone. The MicroMAX BSR is available in two models. These models differ by antenna design (providing integral flat-panel antennas, or an N-type port for attaching third-party external antennas). MicroMAX BSR is available in numerous frequency bands, operating in FDD and TDD modes in numerous channels, see: MicroMAX Frequency Ranges. The BSR connects to the indoor Ethernet switch by a CAT-5e cable, which carries the Ethernet signal, and DC power. For a MicroMAX Base Station consisting of multiple BSRs, there are two (2) options. The BSRs can be connected to individual Subscriber Data Adapters (SDA-4S) or to Base Station Distribution Units (BSDU). For a Base Station consisting of a single BSR, the BSR typically connects to a single Subscriber Data Adapter (SDA-4S or SDA-4SDC). MicroMAX BSR provides a low cost, high-performance point-to multipoint packet-based Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) solution. MicroMAX BSR Provides wireless connectivity designed to deliver high-speed data, voice over IP (VoIP) and multimedia services to residential, SOHO (Small Office/Home Office), and SME (Small to Medium Enterprises). The MicroMAX is an encased outdoor radio providing access to the MicroMAX's communication ports on its bottom panel. The MicroMAX's back panel provides holes for mounting. MicroMAX BSR interfaces with the service provider's backbone through either: The SDA-4S Type II or the SDA-4SDC (referred henceforth as SDA-4S) integrated LAN switches. o SDA-4S Type II: integrated LAN switch, providing power and four 10/100BaseT ports for interfacing with the subscriber’s network o SDA-4SDC Type II: integrated LAN switch, providing power and four 10/100BaseT interfaces and especially designed for implementation where available power supply is DC (10 to 52 VDC), e.g. from a solar panel. This model provides regulated –48 VDC power to the BSR. Base Station Distribution Unit (BSDU) - provides an interface between multiple BSRs and the service provider's backbone. MicroMAX can be managed by an SNMP-based network management system (Netspan) using standard and proprietary MIBs. In addition, external third-party management systems such as HP OpenView can also manage the MicroMAX using these MIBs. Basic management can be performed using any standard Web browser. Note: for management refer to MicroMAX Web Management documentation.

The figure below illustrates the redundant PS Unit.
28 MOUNTING THE BASE STATION RADIO (BSR) Mounting the MicroMAX The MicroMAX BSR can be pole-mounted or wall-mounted (optional). Pole mounting allows the BSR to be easily adjusted in the horizontal (azimuth) and vertical (elevation) planes for antenna alignment. For either mounting method, the MicroMAX provides mounting holes (displayed in the figure below), molded into its back panel for attaching the mounting brackets. Note: The BSR fully complies with IP Code - IPX6 for product enclosure protection. Warning: The BSR device is an outdoor radio unit, and therefore, must only be mounted outside. Warning: Mount the MicroMAX in an orientation such that its ports (located on the bottom panel) faces downwards. This prevents rain water from settling on the ports, and thereby, avoiding damage to the unit such as corrosion and electrical short-circuiting. Note: The standard BSR kit, provides pole-mounting brackets. If you want to wall-mount the MicroMAX, contact your Airspan distributor for pricing and ordering of wall-mounting brackets. Pole-Mounting the BSR Pole mounting allows the MicroMAX to be easily adjusted in the horizontal (azimuth) and vertical (elevation) planes for antenna alignment. The BSR is mounted using the mounting holes located on the BSR's back panel and the supplied pole-mounting brackets. The pole-mounting bracket is designed to support the BSR on a round pole of 45 mm in diameter. The figure below summarizes of the MicroMAX's pole-mounting procedure.
Mounting the Base Station Radio (BSR) 29 To pole mount the MicroMAX BSR: 1. Attach the mounting bracket to the MicroMAX: a. Align the mounting bracket with the MicroMAX's mounting holes so that the mounting bracket's side with the built-in nut is aligned with the BSR's mounting holes furthest from the MicroMAX's bottom panel, as shown in the figure below. b. Slide an M10-flat washer and M10-spring lock washer onto an M10-hex head screw (ensure spring lock washer is closest to the bolt's head). From the external side, insert the M10-hex head screw through the mounting bracket and MicroMAX's mounting holes. Fasten the M10-hex head screw (one is provided with a built-in nut while the other requires you to insert an M10-hex nut into the MicroMAX's mounting hole).
605-0000-742_MicroMAX_Hardware_Installation_Rev_H 30 2. Attach the clamping bracket to the mounting bracket: a. Slide an M6-spring lock washer onto an M6-hex head screw. Align the mounting bracket's and clamping bracket's pivot holes, such that the clamping bracket is aligned to the inside of the mounting bracket. From the external side of the mounting bracket, insert the M6-hex head screw into the pivot holes and then fasten, but not tightly. (The clamping bracket provides a built-in nut.) b. Choose an elevation hole on the mounting bracket and then align it with the corresponding hole on the clamping bracket. Slide an M6-spring lock washer onto an M6-hex head screw, and then from the external side of the mounting bracket, insert the M6-hex head screw through the elevation hole on the mounting bracket and into the clamping bracket's corresponding hole. Fasten but not tightly the M6-hex head screw (the clamping bracket provides built-in nut). The elevation hole can later be changed according to desired antenna orientation in the elevation plane.
Mounting the Base Station Radio (BSR) 31 3. Attach the U-bolt to the pole: a. Place one U-bolt around the pole, and then insert the U-bolt screw side through the two corresponding holes (horizontally parallel) on the clamping bracket. Slide an M8-flat washer and M8-spring lock washer onto each U-bolt screw side (ensure that the flat washer is adjacent to the clamping bracket). Fasten each U-bolt side with the two M8-hex nuts. b. Attach the second U-bolt as described above. 4. Perform final MicroMAX orientation: a. Adjust the vertical position of the MicroMAX by choosing a final elevation hole as described in Step 2. Lock the MicroMAX at the desired position by inserting the locking bolt in the desired position and fastening it tightly. Fasten tightly the bolt in the pivot hole. The figure below illustrates the angles (in degrees) of each elevation hole. As
605-0000-742_MicroMAX_Hardware_Installation_Rev_H 32 shown, the MicroMAX pole-mounting bracket allows elevation between -18.5° and 26.3°. b. Adjust the horizontal position of the MicroMAX by rotating it about the pole, and then tightening the nuts of the U-bolts. Note: A thread-locking compound must be used to prevent the bolts from working loose. MicroMAX positioning is obtained in two planes by adjustment of the mounting bracket assembly as shown below. It is important to provide strain relief and drip loop for Cat-5 cables. Create a drip loop and strain relief using cable tie, to tie cable to pole, as displayed in the figure below:
Mounting the Base Station Radio (BSR) 33 Wall-Mounting the BSR (Optional) Note: The standard BSR kit provides pole-mounting brackets. If you want to wall-mount the MicroMAX BSR contact your Airspan distributor for pricing and ordering of wall-mounting brackets. Note: A minimum of 3-meter separation is required between mounted MicroMAX's and existing customer radio equipment when transmitting on different sectors (see figure below). However, only a 1-meter separation is required between MicroMAX's when on the same sector and transmitting to the same base station radio without requiring shielding. The figure below illustrates the minimum separation between mounted MicroMAX's when transmitting on different sectors: MicroMAX wall mounting consists of two main stages: Attaching the mounting bracket to the MicroMAX's mounting holes Attaching the mounting bracket (already attached to the MicroMAX) to the wall (or pole) To wall mount the MicroMAX: 1. Position the unassembled mounting bracket on the mounting surface (e.g. wall), and then use a pencil to mark the position of the four mounting holes. Ensure that the distance between the hole centers are 120 mm (height) and 60 mm (width), as displayed in the figure below showing the MicroMAX's fixing dimensions.
605-0000-742_MicroMAX_Hardware_Installation_Rev_H 34 2. Drill holes for each hole that you marked in the step above. 3. Insert wall anchors (not supplied) into each of the drilled holes. 4. Align the mounting bracket's four holes with the wall anchors, and then insert a screw (not supplied) through the mounting bracket holes into each wall anchor, and then tighten. Note: Airspan does not provide screws for attaching the mounting bracket to the wall. The screw size depends on the structure of the building to which the bracket is to be attached. When selecting screw sizes, consideration must be given to the weight of the MicroMAX and load that may be induced in windy conditions.
Mounting the Base Station Radio (BSR) 35 5. Attach the MicroMAX to the mounting bracket by performing the following: a. Slide an M10-spring lock washer and then an M10-plain washer onto each M10-hex head screw (ensure lock washer is nearest to head of screw bolt). b. Align the mounting bracket's holes with the MicroMAX's mounting holes as displayed below. (The mounting bracket side that provides a groove for inserting a nut must be aligned with the MicroMAX's mounting hole that is nearest to the MicroMAX's bottom panel.) c. From the external sides, insert the M10-hex head screws through the mounting bracket's holes and MicroMAX's mounting holes. Loosely fasten with the M10-hex nuts.
605-0000-742_MicroMAX_Hardware_Installation_Rev_H 36 6. Adjust the horizontal positioning of the MicroMAX (see "Web-Based Management" for MicroMAX antenna alignment using RSS measurements), and then tighten the two M10-hex head screws with the M10 hex nuts. Note: A third-party thread-locking compound must be applied to the M10-hex head screws to prevent the bolts from working loose. Note: For wall mounting, rotation is restricted in the horizontal plane only. Installing the SDA-4S The SDA-4S Type II (or SDA-4SDC Type II) is mounted vertically on a wall. Wall Mounting Wall mounting is made possible by the existence of two mounting hooks molded into the SDA-4S's bottom panel, as displayed in the figure below.
Mounting the Base Station Radio (BSR) 37 To wall mount the SDA-4S: 1. On the wall, mark the position of the two mounting hooks. The dimensions of the wall-mounting hooks are displayed in the template below. 2. Drill holes for each hole that you marked in the step above. 3. Insert wall anchors (supplied) into each of the drilled holes. 4. Insert the 9-inch screws (supplied) into the wall anchors. Ensure at least 2 mm of the screw is exposed to allow insertion into the SDA-4S mounting holes. 5. Hold the SDA-4S with both hands, and align the entrance to the two mounting hooks with the screws. Slide the screws into the mounting hooks, by lowering the SDA-4S onto the screws. Note: For safety, both mounting hooks must be utilized when mounting the unit. Note: The SDA-4S is supplied with a 1-metre AC power lead assembly. Therefore, ensure the unit is mounted within reachable distance to the customer's mains power outlet. Note: The maximum cable run between SDA-4S and MicroMAX is 100 meters. Therefore, ensure the unit is mounted within reachable distance.
38 MOUNTING THE BSDU Mounting the BSDU The BSDU can be mounted in either of the two (2) following ways: Horizontally on a desktop Horizontally in a rack (ETSI or 19“) Desktop mounting The BSDU can simply be placed horizontally on a table. You can attach to the BSDU's bottom panel, four rubber feet (pads) (supplied) on each corner to provide cushioning and insulation from static electricity. Warning: To prevent a fire hazard caused by overheating, do not place the BSDU on a surface where airflow is restricted.

43 CABLING THE BSR Network cabling at the Base Station depends on the devices implemented to provide the BSR with connectivity to the provider's backhaul and power source. These devices can be one of the following: SDA: AC/DC powered and consisting of a single BSR BSDU: AC/DC powered and consisting of multiple BSRs Note: Use unshielded CAT 5 cable only. Note: If FM interference is discovered during installation, please refer to Commissioning Guide (Troubleshooting section) for further instructions. Connecting the BSR to the SDA-4S he SDA-4S provides -48 VDC power to the BSR as well as the Fast Ethernet interface between the BSR and the provider's backhaul network. The outdoor Base Station Radio and Modem are powered over a CAT-5e Cable by the SDA-4S Type II IDU (or the SDA-4SDC) in the minimum configuration. For larger configurations N* SDA-4Ss and N* BSRs are required or connection to BSDU(s). The BSR interfaces with the subscriber's Ethernet network through the SDA-4S. To connect the BSR to the SDA-4S, you need to connect the BSR's 15-pin D-type port to the SDA-4S's 15-pin D-type port using a CAT-5e cable. The cable setup for MicroMAX-to-SDA-4S connectivity is as follows: Cable: Straight-through CAT-5e Ethernet cable Connectors: o MicroMAX: DB15-to-RJ45 outdoor adapter (black color) o SDA-4S: DB15-to-RJ45 indoor adapter (for connecting to DATA&PWR&SYNC D-type connector) o CAT 5e cable with 8-pin RJ-45 male connectors on either end Connector pinouts:
605-0000-742_MicroMAX_Hardware_Installation_Rev_H 44 Note: The wire color-coding described in the table is Airspan's standard for wire color-coding. However, if you implement your company's wire color-coding scheme, ensure that the wires are paired and twisted according to pin functions listed in the table above (e.g. Rx+ with Rx-). Note: The maximum CAT 5e cable length for ODU/IDU connectivity is 100 meters. To connect the BSR to the SDA-4S: 1. Connect the 15-pin D-type male connector, at one end of the CAT-5e cable, to the BSR's 15-pin D-type port labeled DATA&PWR&SYNC. 2. Connect the 15-pin D-type male connector, at the other end of the CAT-5e cable, to the SDA-4S's 15-pin D-type port. SDA-4S Type II Using the SDA-4S Type II The SDA-4S Type II (or the SDA-4SDC) provides one to four RJ-45 (100BaseT) ports for interfacing with the subscriber's LAN network. The ports of the SDA-4S model support Auto Negotiation, allowing automatic configuration for the highest possible speed link (10BaseT or 100BaseT), and Full Duplex or Half Duplex mode. In other words, the speed of the connected device (e.g. PC) determines the speed at which packets are transmitted through the specific port. For example, if the device to which the port is connected is running at 100 Mbps, the port connection will transmit packets at 100 Mbps. Conversely, if the device to which the port is connected is running at 10 Mbps, the port connection will transmit packets at 10 Mbps In addition, the SDA-4S ports support MDI/MDI-X automatic crossover, allowing connection to straight-through or crossover CAT-5e cables. Therefore, these ports can be connected to either a hub (i.e. using crossover cables) or a PC (i.e. using straight-through cables). The cable setup for SDA-4S LAN connectivity is as follows: Cable: Straight-through (e.g. when connecting to PC) or crossover (i.e. when connecting to a hub) CAT-5e Ethernet cable Connectors: 8-pin RJ-45 at both ends Connector pinouts: o Straight-through cable (e.g. connecting to a PC)

The BSR-to-BSDU cable setup is as follows: Cable: straight-through 10/100 Base-T Ethernet 4 Pair Cat-5e outdoor type – 22 AWG (100 meters) Connectors: o BSR side: 15-pin D-type male (only 8 pins are used) o BSDU side: 15-pin D-type male (only 8 pins are used) Connector pinouts: BSR-to-BSDU cable connector pinouts Straight-through CAT-5 UTP PVC 4 Pair 24 AWG cables BSR BSDU 15-pin D-type male PinFunctionWire color Wire pair PinFunction15-pin D-type male 1 +48 VDC Blue / White 1 +48 VDC 2 48 RTN Blue 1 2 48 RTN 3 Tx+ Orange / White 3 Rx+ 4 Tx- Orange 2 4 Rx- 5 Rx+ Green / White 5 Tx+ 6 Rx- Green 3 6 Tx- 7 Sync.+ Brown / White 7 Sync.+ 8 Sync.- Brown 4 8 Sync.- Notes: A CAT-5e cable connects to the 15-pin D-type port, therefore, only eight pins are used (i.e. pins 9 through 15 are not used). The wire color-coding described in the table (and shown in the figure below) is AS.MAX's standard for wire color-coding. However, if you implement your company's wire color-coding scheme, ensure wires are paired and twisted according to pin functions (e.g. Rx+ with Rx-). When the BSR is connected to an SDA, pins 7 and 8 are not used (i.e. no synchronization). To connect the BSR to the BSDU: 1. Connect the 15-pin D-type male connector, at one end of the CAT-5e cable, to the BSR's 15-pin D-type port labeled DATA&PWR&SYNC. 2. Connect the 15-pin D-type male connector, at the other end of the CAT-5e cable, to one of the eight BSDU's 15-pin D-type ports labeled BSR, located at the rear of the BSDU.

62 CONNECTING LIGHTNING AND SURGE PROTECTOR The optional third-party lightning and surge protector (PolyPhaser) is implemented in the following deployment scenarios: ODU-to-IDU cable length of 40 meters or more (mandatory to use surge protector) Deployment of MicroMAX in geographical areas that frequently experience severe lightning storms The lightning and surge protector protects the ODU-to-IDU CAT 5e cable's six or eight (depending on configuration) (for GPS synchronization all 8 CAT 5e wires are used) used wires (two -48 VDC wires and four Ethernet Tx and Rx wires) from any electrical surges due to lighting strikes. The protector is installed outdoors on the CAT 5e cable that connects between the MicroMAX and the SDA-4S Type II (ODU). In other words, two CAT 5e cables are required for the following connections: MicroMAX-to-protector connection Protector-to-IDU connection Warning: Do not install the lightning and surge protector during adverse weather conditions when the threat of lightning strike is possible. Note: The protector unit must be grounded to a low-impedance (low R and low L) ground system to operate properly. Note: For pricing and ordering of the PolyPhaser lightning and surge protector, contact your Airspan representative. To install the lightning protector: 1. Connect the protector in the direction according to the labels. The end labeled SURGE accepts the cable from the MicroMAX; the end labeled PROTECTED accepts the cable from the SDA-4S, or BSDU. 2. Feed the CAT 5e cable through the grommet (for each side). If the RJ-45 connector is already crimped to the other end, ensure that you have fed the cable through the gland nut beforehand. The gland nut secures the cable to the grommet. 3. Strip about 0.25" (6.35 mm) of the cable sheath and expose about 0.03" (0.8 mm) of the strands/wires. 4. Secure the wires to the protector's terminal block using the two spot ties. Each side of the data and DC assembly has + or – markings to ensure lines entering (surge side) match lines exiting (protected side). Note: PolyPhaser should be installed close to the units but only externally.

68 CONNECTING THIRD-PARTY EXTERNAL ANTENNAS This section describes the procedures for connecting third-party external radio and Global Positioning System (GPS) antennas to the BSR and BSDU, respectively. The implementation of these antennas depends on the BSR model (with respect to radio antennas) and the need for synchronization of the system (with respect to GPS antennas). Connecting Third Party External Antennas The MicroMAX BSR model without a built-in antenna provides an N-type port for connecting a third-party external antenna. The addition of an external antenna allows greater RF sector coverage than the standard MicroMAX BSR built-in antenna model. Warning: Before connecting the external antenna, ensure that the MicroMAX is not connected to the power source. Warning: Before powering on the MicroMAX, 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 irreversibly damaging the MicroMAX device. Warning: It is the responsibility of the person installing the MicroMAX to ensure 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. Warning: The external antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Warning: The MicroMAX and external antenna should be installed ONLY by experienced installation professionals who are familiar with the local building and safety codes and are licensed by the appropriate government authorities. Note: The MicroMAX model that provides an N-type connector for attaching a third-party external antenna does not contain an internal, built-in antenna. The following lists the cable setup for attaching the external antenna: Cable: RF coaxial Connector: N-type male To connect a third-party external antenna to the MicroMAX: Connect the N-type male connector of the third-party antenna to the N-type receptacle located on the MicroMAX's panel (labeled ANTENNA), as displayed below.
Connecting third-Party External Antennas 69 Connecting GPS Antenna to BSDU Warning: To avoid electrical or fire hazard, ensure that the connection to the GPS is made prior to connecting the BSDU to the power supply. Warning: A primary lightning protection device must be provided by the operator/customer as part of an extra-building installation to ensure transient voltage levels of less than 600 V maximum. Warning: Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Airspan Networks Inc. could result in violation of Part 15 of the FCC rules. Warning: This is a Class B product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures to correct the interference. Connecting the GPS The GPS antenna connects to the BSDU's 15-pin D-type port, labeled GPS, located on the BSDU's rear panel, as shown below. The connection to the GPS is made through a 12-pin RS-422 serial interface port that provides both communication and power interfaces. BSDU rear panel showing GPS port
605-0000-742_MicroMAX_Hardware_Installation_Rev_H 70 Warning: To avoid electrical or fire hazard, ensure that the connection to the GPS is made prior to connecting the BSDU to the power supply. The GPS-to-BSDU cable setup is as follows: Cable: 12-pin conductor cable for RS-422 serial interface (multipair overall shielded -- 22 AWG) of 5, 15, or 30 meters in length depending on customer requirements (100 meter maximum length) Connectors: o GPS side: RS-422 weathertight 12-pin plug (Deutsch MMP26C-2212S1) o BSDU side: 15-pin D-type male o Connector pinouts: The GPS connector receptacle contains 12 male contacts, as displayed below: GPS connector pinouts The connector pinouts for the GPS-to-BSDU 12-pin cabling are described in the table below.

605-0000-742_MicroMAX_Hardware_Installation_Rev_H 72 GPS-to-BSDU cable connection Notes: ♦When installing the cable, secure the cable to the mounting pole or bracket with a cable tie to hold the weight of the cable (i.e. cable strain relief). ♦A loop should be left in the dressed cable for maintenance purposes and to prevent the cable weight being taken directly on the connector itself. ♦Ensure that the connector is waterproof. GPS Alignment Many GPS reception problems can be reduced, to some degree, by careful antenna site selection. Place the GPS so that unobstructed line-of-sight reception is possible from horizon to horizon and at all bearings and elevation angles from the antenna. This is the ideal situation, which may not be possible under actual operating conditions. Try to place the GPS as far as possible from reflective objects, especially reflective objects that are above its radiation pattern horizon. Close-in reflections cause strong multipath signals. Care should also be taken to avoid coiling the GPS cable around the mounting base and pinching the cable in windows or doors.

Telephone (44) 1 895 467450. 1.8 Lightning Protection WARNING: The following notes are general recommendations for the system. The wireless equipment should be installed by a qualified professional installer and must follow local and national codes for electrical grounding and safety. Failure to meet safety requirements and/or use of non-standard practices and procedures could result in personal injury and damage to equipment. A direct lightning strike may cause serious damage even if these guidelines are followed. All outdoor wireless equipment is susceptible to lightning damage from a direct hit or induced current from a near strike. Lightning protection and grounding practices in local and national electrical codes serve to minimize equipment damage, service outages, and serious injury. Reasons for lightning damage are summarized as: - Poorly grounded tower/antenna sites that can conduct high lightning strike energy into equipment. - Lack of properly installed lightning protection equipment that can cause equipment failures from lightning induced currents. A lighting protection system provides a means by which the energy may enter earth without passing through and damaging parts of a structure. A lightning protection system does not prevent lightning from striking; it provides a means for controlling it and preventing damage by providing a low resistance path for the discharge of energy to travel safely to ground. Improperly grounded connections are also a source of noise that can cause sensitive equipment to malfunction. A good tower grounding system disperses most of the surge energy from a tower strike away from the building and equipment. The remaining energy on the RF cable shield and center conductor can be directed safely to ground by using a lightning arrestor in series with the RF cable. To limit the equipment damage due to a lightning strike, the following practices are recommended for the wireless system: - Provide direct grounding from the antenna mounting bracket, the radio and antenna and the lightning arrestors to the same ground point at the base of the tower or a ground bus on the building. Use the grounding screws on the antenna bracket and the radio and antenna for terminating the ground wires.
Warnings and Cautions 81 - Install one RF lightning protector between the radio and antenna in series with the RF cable. - A lightning arrestor in series with the RF cable at the point of entry to the building. - Install a lightning arrestor in series with the IF cable at the transceiver on the tower/mast. - The AC wall outlet ground for the terminal must be connected to the same grounding system as the radio and antenna lightning protectors.
