Chapter 1 - System Description
1.1 Introducing BreezeACCESS 4900
BreezeACCESS 4900 is a high capacity, IP services oriented Broadband Wireless
Access system operating in the 4.9 GHz licensed spectrum band allocated for
public safety. The system employs wireless packet switched data technology to
support high-speed IP services with a network connection that is always on. The
system is designed for both Point-to-Point and Point-to Multipoint configurations,
supporting data, VoIP and video applications.
The system supports Virtual LANs based on IEEE 802.1Q, enabling secure
operation and Virtual Private Network (VPN) services. The system supports layer-
2 traffic prioritization based on IEEE 802.1p and layer-3 traffic prioritization
based on either IP ToS Precedence (RFC791) or DSCP (RFC2474). It also supports
traffic prioritization based on UDP and/or TCP port ranges. BreezeACCESS 4900
uses advanced security mechanisms, including WEP128, AES128 and FIPS
compliance.
Using OFDM modem technology and high power radios, BreezeACCESS 4900
offers an unmatched combination of wide coverage, high capacity and value-
added features to provide wireless connectivity that works also in near and
non-line-of-site (NLOS) conditions.
Alvarion’s Complete Spectrum solution enables the BreezeACCESS 4900 to
integrate seamlessly into other BreezeACCESS networks. Supporting both fixed
and mobile platforms at multiple frequency bands, the Complete Spectrum
enables simultaneous deployment of systems at 900 MHz, 2.4 GHz, 3.5 GHz,
4.9 GHz, and the entire 5 GHz band.
A BreezeACCESS 4900 system comprises the following:
Customer Premise Equipment (CPE): BreezeACCESS 4900 Subscriber Units
(SUs).
Base Station Equipment (BS): BreezeACCESS 4900 Access Units and
supporting equipment.
Networking Equipment: Standard Switches/Routers supporting connections
to the backbone and/or Internet.
Management Systems: SNMP-based Management, Billing and Customer
Care, and other Operation Support Systems.

Base Station Equipment
1.2 Base Station Equipment
The Access Units, installed at the Base Station site, provide all the functionality
necessary to communicate with the Subscriber Units and to connect to the
backbone of the network.
There are 2 lines of Access Units with different architectures:
Modular Base Station Equipment
Standalone “Micro-Cell” Access Unit
1.2.1 Modular Base Station Equipment
The Base Station Equipment is based on the BS-SH 3U chassis, which is suitable
for installation in 19-inch racks. The chassis contains one or two Power Supply
modules and has 8 slots that can accommodate BS-AU Network Interface
modules. These slots can also
accommodate various combinations of
other modules, including Network
Interface (BS-AU) modules for Access
Units operating in any of the bands
supported by BreezeACCESS VL
equipment or BreezeACCESS equipment using GFSK modulation, including
BreezeACCESS 900, BreezeACCESS II, BreezeACCESS XL and BreezeACCESS V.
It can also accommodate a BS-GU GPS and Alarms module to support GPS-based
synchronization of BreezeACCESS systems using Frequency Hopping radios.
Two different types of power supply modules are available for the BreezeACCESS
4900 chassis: The BS-PS-DC that is powered from a -48 VDC power source, and
the BS-PS-AC, powered from the 110/220 VAC mains. The optional use of two
power supply modules ensures fail-safe operation through power supply
redundancy. When the same chassis is used also for Access Unit modules
belonging to other BreezeACCESS families using GFSK modulation, then one
BS-PS power supply (AC or DC) should be used to provide power to the
BreezeACCESS 4900 Access Units, and a different power supply module, suitable
for GFSK equipment, is required for powering the BreezeACCESS GFSK Access
Units.
Each BS-AU module, together with its outdoor AU-D/E-BS-ODU radio unit and
an antenna comprise an AU-D/E-BS Access Unit that serves a single sector/cell.
One AU-BS Access Unit can serve up to 512 Subscriber Units (124 when Data
Encryption is used).

The BS-AU indoor module connects to the network through a standard IEEE
802.3 Ethernet 10/100BaseT (RJ 45) interface. The indoor module is connected
to the outdoor unit via a Category 5E Ethernet cable. This cable carries Ethernet
traffic between the indoor module and the outdoor unit, and also transfers power
(54 VDC) and control from the indoor module to the outdoor unit.
1.2.2 Standalone “Micro-cell” Access Unit
The standalone AU-D/E-SA Access Unit is very similar to the AU-D/E-BS unit.
The AU-D/E-SA-ODU outdoor unit is very similar to the
AU-D/E-BS-ODU outdoor unit (identical functionality, but the
units are not interchangeable). Units are differentiated based
on the availability of an antenna: E model units are supplied
without an antenna, while D model units are supplied with a
detached antenna.
Available units are:
AU-D-SA-4900-360 (Standalone AU with a 9 dBi omni antenna)
AU-D-SA-4900-120 (Standalone AU with a 15 dBi, 120° sector antenna)
AU-E-SA-4900 (Standalone AU)
The available antennas for D model units are the same as those of the AU-D-BS
Access Unit. The main difference is in the structure of the indoor part; in the AU-
D/E-SA Access Unit the indoor unit is a standalone desktop or wall-mountable

unit (the same Universal IDU that is also used in the SU) rather than a 19”
module.
The AU-SA Access Unit can serve up to 512 Subscriber Units (124 when Data
Encryption is used).
The IDU connects to the network through a standard IEEE 802.3 Ethernet
10/100BaseT (RJ 45) interfaces and is powered from the 110/220 VAC mains.
The indoor unit is connected to the outdoor unit via a Category 5E Ethernet
cable. This cable carries Ethernet traffic between the indoor and the outdoor
units, and also transfers power (54 VDC) and control from the indoor unit to the
outdoor unit.
NOTE
The AU-D/E-SA-ODU and the AU-D/E-BS-ODU are not interchangeable:
The AU-D/E-SA-ODU cannot be used with the BS-AU; the AU-D/E-BS-ODU cannot be used with
the standalone IDU.

The Subscriber Unit (SU) installed at locations that require service, enables the
customer data connection to the Access Unit. The Subscriber Unit provides an
efficient platform for high speed Internet and Intranet
services, supporting single or multiple end users. The
use of packet switching technology provides the user
with a connection to the network that is always on,
enabling immediate access to services.
The Subscriber Unit comprise a desktop or wall-
mountable Indoor Unit (IDU) and an outdoor unit that
contains the processing and radio modules. Several ODU types are available to
support different requirements, as detailed in Table 1-2:

implement standard and proprietary MIBs for remote setting of operational modes
and parameters. The same SNMP management tools can also be used to manage
other system components including switches, routers and transmission
equipment. Security features incorporated in BreezeACCESS 4900 units restrict
access for management purposes to specific IP addresses and/or directions, that
is, from the Ethernet and/or wireless link.
In addition, the Ethernet WAN can be used to connect to other Operation Support
Systems including servers, Customer Care systems and AAA (Authentication,
Authorization and Admission) tools.

Chapter 2 - Installation
2.2 Equipment Positioning Guidelines
This section provides key guidelines for selecting the optimal installation
locations for the various BreezeACCESS 4900 system components.
CAUTION
ONLY experienced installation professionals who are familiar with local building and safety codes
and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate government regulatory authorities should
install outdoor units and antennas.
Failure to do so may void the BreezeACCESS 4900 product warranty and may expose the end
user or Service Provider to legal and financial liabilities. Alvarion and its resellers or distributors are
not liable for injury, damage or regulation violations associated with the installation of Outdoor Units
or antennas.
Select the optimal locations for the equipment using the following guidelines:
The outdoor unit can be either pole or wall mounted. Its location should
enable easy access to the unit for installation and testing.
The higher the placement of the antenna, the better the achievable link
quality.
AU-ODU units should be installed as close as possible to the antenna.
The antenna connected to the AU-ODU unit, should be installed so as to
provide coverage to all Subscriber Units (SUs) within its service area.
NOTE
The recommended minimum distance between any two antennas serving adjacent sectors is 2
meters. The recommended minimum distance between two antennas serving opposite cells
(installed back-to-back) is 5 meters.
The antenna of the SU (integrated on the front side of SU-A-ODU and SU-A-H-
ODU unit) should be installed to provide a direct, or near line of sight with the
Base Station antenna. The antenna should be aligned to face the Base
Station.
The indoor equipment should be installed as close as possible to the location
where the indoor-to-outdoor cable enters the building. The location of the
indoor equipment should take into account its connection to a power outlet
and the CPE.

2.3 Installing the Outdoor Unit
The following sections describe how to install the outdoor units, including pole
mounting the ODU, and connecting the indoor-to-outdoor, grounding and RF
cables.
NOTE
Ensure that outdoor units, antennas and supporting structures are properly installed to eliminate
any physical hazard to either people or property. Make sure that the installation of the outdoor unit,
antenna and cables is performed in accordance with all relevant national and local building and
safety codes. Even where grounding is not mandatory according to applicable regulation and
national codes, it is highly recommended to ensure that the outdoor unit and the antenna pole
(when using external antenna) are grounded and suitable lightning protection devices are used so
as to provide protection against voltage surges and static charges. In any event, Alvarion is not
liable for any injury, damage or regulation violations associated with or caused by installation,
grounding or lightning protection.
2.3.1 Pole Mounting the Outdoor Unit
The Outdoor Unit can be mounted on a pole using one of the following options:
Special brackets and open-ended bolts are supplied with each unit. There are
two pairs of threaded holes on the back of the unit, enabling the special
brackets to be mounted on diverse pole diameters.
Special grooves on the sides of the unit enable the use of metal bands to
secure the unit to a pole. The bands must be 9/16 inches wide and at least 12
inches long. The metal bands are not included with the installation package.

3 Verify that the W-LINK LED of the ODU is On, indicating that the unit is
associated with an Access Unit. If the W-LINK LED is Off, check that the
ESSID and Frequency parameters are correctly configured. If the SU is still
not associated with the AU, increase the transmit power level to its maximum
value. If the unit is still not associated with the AU, improve the quality of the
link by changing the direction of the antenna or by placing the antenna at a
higher or alternate location.
4 Rotate the antenna until the maximum SNR reading is achieved, where at
least 1 green LED is on. If you encounter prolonged difficulty in illuminating
the minimum required number of green LEDs, 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.

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. 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°. To guarantee a safety margin from the saturation level (received signal
of –40 dBm at the antenna port), the SNR should not be higher than 50 dB. The orange LED of the
SNR bar indicates that the SNR is higher than 50 dB.

Quality Indicator (LQI) calculation is performed using the formula:
LQI = (0.9 x ”Previous LQI”) + (0.1 x ”Last Successful Modulation Level”).
Each successful transmit will be included in this average, by using the

In order to receive quick and reliable LQI measurements, there should be

NOTE
There is no aging time for SUs. An SU is only removed from the list of associated SUs under the
following conditions:
A SNAP frame is received from another AU indicating that the SU is now associated with the
other AU.
The SU failed to respond to a certain number of consecutive frames transmitted by the AU and
is considered to have "aged out".
Therefore, the database of associated SUs may include units no longer associated with the AU. If
the number of associated SUs has reached the value of the Maximum Number of Associations
parameter, the selected AU cannot serve additional SUs. To view the current number of associated

CAUTION
It is not recommended that you configure a unit as a Trunk Link with the VLAN ID-Management
parameter set at 65535, as it does not forward any 'NO VLAN' management frames to its other
port, making it impossible to manage devices connected behind the unit that are also configured
with 'NO VLAN'.
If the VLAN Forwarding option is enabled, a data frame received with a VLAN ID
that is not a member of the unit's VLAN Forwarding List is discarded.

If the VLAN Forwarding option is enabled, be sure to include the VLAN ID-Management value of

es a special mechanism based on detecting the presence of a carrier signal and
analyzing the information contained in the transmissions of the AU to estimate
the activity of other SUs served by the AU. The target is to minimize collisions in
the wireless medium resulting from attempts of more than one unit to transmit at
the same time.
The system uses an exponential Back-off algorithm to resolve contention between
several units that want to access the wireless medium. The method requires each
station to choose a random number N between 0 and a given number C each time
it wants to access the medium. The unit will attempt to access the medium only

4.2.6.7.1 Authentication Algorithm
The Authentication Algorithm option determines the operation mode of the
selected unit. The following two options are available:
Open System: An SU configured to Open System can only associate with an
AU also configured to Open System. In this case, the authentication
encryption algorithm is not used.
Shared Key: The authentication messages are encrypted. An SU configured to
use a Shared Key can only be authenticated by an AU configured to use a
Shared Key, provided the applicable Key (which means both the key number
and its content) in the AU is identical to the key selected as the Default Key in
the SU.
The default is Open System.
NOTE
The Shared Key option cannot be selected before at least one Key is defined. In the SU, a Default
Key that refers to a valid Key must be selected.
The AU and all the SUs it serves should be configured to the same Authentication Algorithm option.
Mixed operation is not supported.
4.2.6.7.2 Data Encryption Option
The Data Encryption Option allows enabling or disabling data encryption. When
enabled, all data frames, including frames using management protocols such as
Telnet, FTP, TFTP, SNMP, DHCP and ICMP, are encrypted.
The default is Disable.
NOTE
The AU and all the SUs it serves should be configured to the same Data Encryption Option.
Mixed operation is not supported.
An SU with Data Encryption Option enabled can accept non-encrypted data frames.
When the Data Encryption Option is enabled, the maximum number of SUs that can associate
with the AU is limited to 124. The Maximum Number of Associations Limit is indicated in the
Show Air Interface Parameters display.
4.2.6.7.3 Security Mode
The Security Mode option enables selecting the algorithm to be used for
encrypting the authentication messages and/or data frames.
Available options are WEP, AES/OCB and AES/CCM.
The default is WEP.

The Key # options enables defining the encryption key to be used for initializing
the pseudo-random number generator that forms part of the
encryption/decryption process. The Keys must be set before the Shared Key
authentication algorithm or Data Encryption can be used. To support proper
operation, both the Key # and the content must be identical at both sides of a
wireless link.
Each Key is a string of 32 hexadecimal numbers. For security reasons, it is a
“write only” parameter, displayed as a string of asterisks (“*”).
The default for all 4 Keys is 000…0 (a string of 32 zeros), which means no key.
4.2.6.7.7 Promiscuous Authentication (AU only)
The Promiscuous Authentication mode enables new SUs to join an active cell
where Shared Key operation and/or Data Encryption are used, even if this SU
does not have the correct security parameters. In promiscuous mode, all
downlink transmissions (from AU to SUs) are not encrypted, allowing remote
configuration of security parameters, regardless of the current settings in the SUs
of the parameters related to data encryption. After a new SU joins the cell it
should be remotely configured with the proper parameters (or upgraded). When
the SU is configured properly, the Promiscuous Mode should be disabled.

Appendix A - Software Version Loading Using TFTP
Firmware upgrades to the unit's FLASH memory can be performed by a simple
loading procedure using a TFTP application. Before performing an upgrade
procedure, be sure you have the correct files and most recent instructions.
Upgrade packages can be obtained from the Technical Support section of
Alvarion's web site, http://www.alvarion.com/.
CAUTION
Shutting down power to the unit before completion of the loading procedure may cause the unit to
be inoperable.
To load software versions:
1 Verify that IP connectivity to the required unit is established.
2 Ensure that the IP address of the PC from which the upgrade is to be
performed belongs to the same subnet as the unit to be upgraded, unless the
unit is behind a router. If the unit is behind a router, verify that the unit is
configured with the correct Default Gateway Address.
3 To view the current IP parameters of the unit, use the Monitor program by
connecting the PC to the unit either directly or via Telnet. To access the IP
parameters via the Monitor program:
a From the Main Menu select 1 - Info Screens.
b From the Info Screen menu select 2 - Show Basic Configuration. The
current basic configuration is displayed, including the run time values for
the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway Address parameters.
4 To modify any of the IP parameters:
a From the Main Menu, select 3 - Basic Configuration.
b To configure the IP address, select: 1 - IP Address.
c To configure the subnet mask, select 2 - Subnet Mask.
d To configure the default gateway address, select 3 - Default Gateway
Address.
5 To verify the connection, PING the unit's IP address and verify that PING
replies are being received.
6 Use the TFTP utility, with the following syntax, to perform the upgrade:
tftp -i hostaddress put sourcefile [destinationfile]
where -i is for binary mode and hostaddress is the IP address of the unit to be
upgraded. put causes the PC client to send a file to the hostaddress.

![](/img.php?id=590731&img=bga8.png)
Appendix B - File Download and Upload Using TFTP
The File Download/Upload feature simplifies the task of remotely configuring a
large number of units using TFTP protocol. By downloading the configuration file
to a PC it is possible to view all the parameters configured for the unit, as a plain
ASCII text file. It is necessary to edit the file using a simple editor and remove
certain parameters or change their values prior to uploading the configuration to
another unit. The file loading procedure can also be used for uploading a feature
license file or an updated country code file to multiple units.
When multiple configurations are being done simultaneously, that is, the file is
being uploaded to several units, it is recommended that the file will include only
the required parameters.
In the configuration file, the following three fields represent each parameter:
1 A symbolic string similar to the name of the parameter in the Monitor
program, followed by "=".
2 The value of the parameters, which uses the same values as the Monitor
program.
3 An optional comment. If used, the comment should start with a ";" character.
An unknown parameter will be ignored. A known parameter with a value that is
invalid or out of range will be set by the unit to its default value.
Use the SNMP write community string (the default is “private”) to define both the
uploaded file (put) and the downloaded file (get). The file should be transferred in
ASCII mode.
Use the extension cfg for a configuration file.
Use the extension cmr for the Operator Defaults file.
Use the extension fln for a Feature License file.
Use the extension ccf for a Country Code file.
Feature license and country code files include multiple strings, where each string
is applicable only for a certain unit identified by its MAC address. When
uploading a feature license or a country code file to multiple units, each unit will
accept only the parts that are applicable for itself.

H.3 Low Throughput Problems
Problem and Indication
Possible Cause Corrective Action
Ethernet link
problems Verify proper settings of Ethernet
operation mode (actual Ethernet
speed of 100 Mbps).
Check Ethernet counters
Low throughput is suspected
(Check the dominant
Modulation Level in Per rate
Counters and see expected
throughput in the “Expected
Throughput” table below) Wrong configuration
of Maximum
Modulation level
Verify that Maximum Modulation level is
not set to a value that is not too low
according to the “Recommended
Maximum Modulation Level” table below.
Low throughput of
multicast/broadcast traffic Non-optimal
configuration of
Multicast Modulation
level
A value that is too low (see the
“Recommended Maximum Modulation
Level” table below) may degrade
throughput of broadcast and multicast
traffic.
High retransmissions rate Interference
problems
(retransmissions rate
in excess of 15%)
Check for interference using the
Spectrum Analysis Mode. If necessary,
change the operating frequency of the
AU.
