Which ODU set you use depends on the frequency band of your service provider’s WiMAX service. Each system provides network connections that are always on, supporting immediate access to the Internet and other IP services at high data rates. The unit provides a gateway function between a WiMAX service provider and a local Ethernet LAN. The device enables a service provider to deliver last mile broadband wireless access as an alternative to wired DSL or cable modems.Part of an extended and field-proven product portfolio, Extreme CPE is an integral part of the Extreme family, the latest most technologically advanced wireless solution for broadband deployment. With capacity of up to 20 Mbps download and 7 Mbps upload speed per unit, the Extreme CPE solution enables the delivery of powerful wireless broadband services to the subscriber. Extreme CPE is an out-of-the-box solution with immediate available local stock enabling virtually instant network expansion and simplified deployment. Extreme CPE provides a wireless solution for the subscriber to connect to the internet.With a range of up to 5 Km and lower equipment and deployment costs, Extreme CPE enables service providers to wirelessly extend their services to customers in areas where the cost of cabling is prohibitive to deployment. Remote residential areas can now benefit from high-speed wireless Internet access, Web browsing and e-mail, and advanced applications such as multi-media services. The Extreme CPE indoor unit (IDU) is a plug-and-play device that provides PoE power to the ODU and a network interface through an RJ-45 Ethernet switch port, as well as two RJ-11 Voice over IP (VoIP) phone ports for telecommunications.

20 Extreme CPE Product ManualChapter 2 - Hardware Installation2.3 IDU Hardware DescriptionThe Extreme CPE receives power through its network cable connection using power-over-Ethernet technology. A power injector IDU is included in the Extreme CPE package and provides two RJ-45 Ethernet ports, one for connecting to the ODU (Radio), and the other for connecting to a local LAN switch (Ethernet), as well as two RJ-11 phone ports for VoIP communications.The Radio port is a propriety 10 PIN RJ-45 port that should not be confused with a regular RJ-45 connection. Use only the propriety cable provided in the package contents. To make sure you are using the right cable count the number of pins on the RJ-45 socket, which should number ten.The Ethernet port uses an MDI (i.e., internal straight-through) pin configuration. You can therefore use straight-through twisted-pair cable to connect this port to most network interconnection devices such as a switch or router that provide MDI-X ports. However, when connecting the Extreme CPE to a workstation or other device that does not have MDI-X ports, you must use a crossover twisted-pair cable.The following figures show the external components of the IDU: The Extreme CPE does not have a power switch. It is powered on when its Ethernet port is connected to the power injector module, and the power injector module is connected to an AC power source. The Power LED indicates whether AC power is applied.The power injector module automatically adjusts to any AC voltage between 100-240 volts at 50 or 60 Hz. No voltage range settings are required.RADIORESETETHERNETETHPOWERProprietyEthernet and Power to ODULED IndicatorsAC Power Socket(Hidden)Ethernet from  Local NetworkReset Button

ODU Antenna AlignmentExtreme CPE Product Manual  436Seal the SAU connector using tar seal or weatherproof tape to protect against rain and moisture.2.9.1 Align the WiMAX AntennaAfter the Extreme CPE unit has been mounted, connected, and its radio is operating, the antenna must be accurately aligned to ensure optimum performance on the wireless link. This alignment process is particularly important for long-range links. To start the alignment process, you can just point the antenna in the general direction of the Access Unit’s (base station) antenna using binoculars or a compass. For accurate alignment, you must monitor the signal strength LEDs as the antenna moves horizontally.The signal strength LEDs indicate the received radio signal strength for the link. The more LEDs that turn on, the stronger the signal. When you move the antenna during alignment, the radio signal from the remote antenna can be seen to have a strong central main lobe and smaller side lobes. The object of the alignment process is to set the antenna so that it is receiving the strongest signal from the central main lobe.To align the antennas in the link, monitor the signal strength LEDs. For details see Table 2-11. Perform the following procedure:1Pan the ODU horizontally back and forth while checking the LEDs, preferrably with an SAU.
44 Extreme CPE Product ManualChapter 2 - Hardware Installation2Find the point where the signal is strongest (refer to Table 2-11) and leave in that position.NOTESometimes there may not be a central lobe peak because vertical alignment is too far off; only two similar peaks for the side lobes are detected.

 88 Extreme CPE Product ManualChapter 9 - ATPC9.1 IntroductionThe Adaptive Transmission Power Control (ATPC) page displays the WiMAX transmit signal levels and allows configuration of the ATPC algorithm or disabling of the feature.ATPC provides system designers with the ability to dynamically control the transmission power, and offers a register to specify the transmission power level during runtime. It is desirable to specify the minimum transmission power level that achieves the required communication reliability for the sake of saving power and increasing the system lifetime.Figure 9-34: ATPC Menu

 90 Extreme CPE Product ManualChapter 9 - ATPC9.3 ATPC ConfigurationThe Multi rate and ATPC Parameters page enables the user to view the transmission (Tx) and reception (Rx) power levels, their optimum levels, radio band, and allows enabling or disabling of the ATPC feature, as well as setting of the the transmission power level. Once enabled the ATPC feature implements a power control algorithm for the WiMAX network. The result of applying ATPC is that every node knows the proper transmission power level to use for each of its neighbours, and every node maintains good link qualities with its neighbours by dynamically adjusting the transmission power through on-demand feedback packets. Uniquely, ATPC adopts a feedback-based and pairwise transmission power control. By collecting the link quality history, ATPC builds a model for each neighbor of the node. This model represents an in-situ correlation between transmission power levels and link qualities. With such a model, ATPC tunes the transmission power according to monitored link quality changes. The changes of transmission power level reflect changes in the surrounding environment.Figure 9-36: ATPC - ConfigurationMULTI RATE / ATPC – The Multi rate and ATPC Parameters page displays information on the transmitted and received signals, allows enabling of the ATPC algorithm and setting of the transmission power level.Last Tx Rate – Describes the last transmission power rate.Optimal Rx Rate – Describes the optimal receive signal stregth.

122 Extreme CPE Product ManualAppendix B - GNU LicenseThis product includes copyrighted third-party software subject to the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL), GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL), or other related free software licences. The GPL code used in this product is distributed WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY and is subject to the copyrights of one or more authors. For details, refer to the section “The GNU General Public License” below, or refer to the applicable licence as included in the source-code archive.B.1 The GNU General Public LicenseGNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSEVersion 2, June 1991Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USAEveryone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
The GNU General Public LicenseExtreme CPE Product Manual 123B.1.1 PreambleThe licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to your programs, too.When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
124 Extreme CPE Product ManualAppendix B - GNU LicenseThe precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.B.1.2 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATIONThis License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
The GNU General Public LicenseExtreme CPE Product Manual 125If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
126 Extreme CPE Product ManualAppendix B - GNU LicenseThe source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent license would not permit
The GNU General Public LicenseExtreme CPE Product Manual 127royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
128 Extreme CPE Product ManualAppendix B - GNU LicenseNO WARRANTYBECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
