BS Equipment Installation Manual
Introduction
1. INTRODUCTION
This manual describes installation guidelines for BreezeACCESS 2.4 base station
equipment, including the stand-alone AU-E/A-NI-2.4 Access Units and the
modular AU-E/A-BS-2.4 Units with the BS-SH rack mounted shelf.
The BreezeACCESS IP Broadband Wireless Local Loop (WLL) system allows
access service providers to provide high-speed IP connectivity services to their
subscribers. To support IP-based services effectively BreezeACCESS systems
employ wireless packet data switching technology.
The BreezeACCESS 2.4 line of products uses Frequency Hopping Spread
Spectrum radios that operate in Time Division Duplex (TDD) mode in the
2.400GHz – 2.500GHz frequency range.
The AU-A/E-NI and the AU-A/E-BS Access Units are comprised of an indoor
unit and an outdoor unit. In the AU-A-NI and AU-A-BS products, the outdoor
unit (AU-RA) contains the radio module and an integral flat antenna. In the
AU-E-NI and AU-E-BS products, the outdoor unit (AU-RE) contains the radio
module and an interface to an external antenna (not included).
The indoor unit of the AU-A/E-NI is a stand-alone unit (AU-NI) that is powered
from the mains via its AU-PS power supply unit. The indoor unit of the AU-A/EBS is a module (BS-AU) that is designed for insertion into the BS-SH shelf. The
BS-SH, which is a 3U shelf suitable for installation in 19" racks, can contain up
to six BS-AU active modules and one or two BS-PS power supply modules. The
shelf is powered from a –48VDC power source. Power supply redundancy is
supported through the optional use of a second BS-PS power supply module.
The indoor unit provides the interface to the network. It also contains an IF
(Intermediate Frequency) module and is connected to the outdoor unit via a
50-ohm coaxial IF cable. The IF cable serves for transmission of the 440MHz IF
signal between the indoor and the outdoor units. It also serves for transferring
power (12VDC), management and control signals from the indoor unit to the
outdoor unit.
Note:
The information contained in this manual is applicable to
BreezeACCESS 2.4 units with software release 2.5 and up.

Guidelines for Selection of Equipment Location
Select appropriate locations for the equipment using the following guidelines:
•
The outdoor unit can be pole—or wall mounted. Its location should allow
easy access to the unit for installation and testing.
•
The AU-RA unit with its integrated antenna, or the external antenna
connected to the AU-RE unit, should be installed where it provides coverage
of all subscriber units in the area it is intended to serve. The higher the AURA or the antenna, the better coverage it can provide.
BreezeACCESS 2.4 Series
BS Equipment Installation Manual
Basic Installation
•
The AU-RE outdoor unit should be installed as near as possible to its
antenna.
Note:
•
The distance between any two antennas should be greater than 40 cm.
The outdoor unit is connected to the indoor unit by means of a coaxial IF
cable carrying signals, controls and power. The IF frequency is 440 MHz.
The maximum allowed attenuation of the IF cable is 15dB and its maximum
allowed DC resistance (the sum of the DC resistance of the inner and outer
conductors) is 1.5 ohm. This allows for cable lengths of up to 30m when
using the standard RG 58 cable. If longer cables are required, a cable with
lower attenuation and/or DC resistance should be used.
Table 2-1 provides data regarding several industry-standard cables such as
RG 58 and RG 213. If the spectral environment is polluted with noise in the
440 MHz band, it is recommended to use a higher quality double-shielded
cable such as LMR 240 or LMR 400 (manufactured by Times
Communications).

The BS-SH and its modules and the SU-NI are designed for indoor operation,
i.e., inside buildings, a suitable cabinet or a shelter. Air temperature control
might be necessary – the equipment is designed to operate over the
temperature range 0°C to 45°C.
BS Equipment Installation Manual
BreezeACCESS 2.4 Series
Basic Installation
Notice:
Outdoor units and antennas should be installed ONLY by experienced
installation professionals who are familiar with local building and safety
codes and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate
government regulatory authorities.
The system complies with EN61000-4-5, level 3, (2kV) standard and is protected
against secondary lightning strikes when its outdoor unit is properly
grounded according to the applicable country-specific industry standards
for protection of structures against lightning. The use of any antenna other than
those certified with this product is forbidden in accordance to FCC rules 15.204.
Failure to do so may void the BreezeACCESS product warranty and may
expose the end user or the service provider to legal and financial liabilities.
BreezeCOM and its resellers or distributors are not liable for injury,
damage or violation of regulations associated with the installation of
outdoor units or antennas. Refer to Appendix C for approved antennas.

Appendix A
APPENDIX A. USING TELNET
Use the following procedure to connect to BreezeACCESS units via a Telnet
session.
1. Connect the PC to the Ethernet port of the unit (or the hub to which the unit
is connected) using a straight Ethernet cable. If you connect the PC directly
to a unit that is normally connected to a hub, use a crossed Ethernet cable.
You may also connect the PC to any Ethernet port on the network and
communicate with the unit to be managed via the wired or wireless media.
2. Make sure that the IP parameters of the PC are configured to enable
connectivity with the unit.
3. Run a Telnet application and use the IP address of the unit to be managed as
the Host Name.
4. Set Port to Telnet (this is the default).
5. Set Terminal Type to VT100 (this is the default).
6. Enter the Service Provider password.
7. When the password is recognized, the following message is displayed:
You have entered.
8. Press Enter, the Breeze ACCESS Monitor is displayed on the screen.
9. To exit the Telnet session, choose Disconnect from the Connect menu.
(The session is terminated automatically, after a specific time of inactivity
determined by the Log-out Timer).

Appendix B
APPENDIX B. BASIC PARAMETERS
•
IP Address – Displays the current IP address of the unit and allows entry
of a new IP address (4 x 3 digit octets, separated by dots). The default IP
Address is 010.000.000.001.
•
Subnet Mask – Displays the current subnet mask of the unit and allows
entry of a new subnet mask (4 x 3 digit octets, separated by dots). The
default mask is 255.000.000.000.
•
Default Gateway Address – Displays the current address of the default
gateway of the unit and allows entry of a new default gateway address (4 x
3 digit octets, separated by dots). The default gateway address is
000.000.000.000.
•
ESS ID – The ESSID (Extended Service Set ID) of the unit (up to 32 printable
ASCII characters). The ESSID is a string used to identify a wireless network.
It prevents the unintentional merging of two co-located wireless networks. An
SU can only associate with an AU that has an identical ESSID. Use different
ESSIDs to segment the wireless access network and add security to your
network. The default value is ESSID1.
Note:
•
The ESSID string is case-sensitive.
Hopping Sequence – Displays the Hopping Sequence of the unit.
A hopping sequence is a pre-defined series of channels (frequencies) that
are used in a specific, pseudo-random order as defined in the sequence. The
unit “hops” from frequency to frequency according to the selected
sequence. When more than one AU is co-located in the same area, it is
recommended to assign different hopping sequences to each AU.
Hopping Sequences are grouped in three hopping sets (see Hopping Set
parameter below). When setting up multiple AUs in the same site, always
choose hopping sequences from the same Hopping Set to reduce the
possibility of collisions on the wireless media. This parameter is only set in
the AU. All the SUs learn it from the AU during the association process.
BreezeACCESS 2.4 Series
25
BS Equipment Installation Manual
Appendix B
The permitted range depends on the applicable hopping standard (see
Table 5-3). The default value is 1.
•
Hopping Set – Displays the selected hopping set. Each hopping standard
has 3 hopping sets. The hopping set selected in this screen determines
which hopping sequences are available in the Hopping Sequence screen.
Always use the same hopping set per site (with different hopping
sequences) to minimize the possibility of collisions on the wireless media.
The default value is 1.
This parameter is set only in the AU. All the associated SUs learn its value
from the AU during the association process.

•
Hopping Sync (BS-AU only) – Displays the current Hopping Sync status of
the unit and allows defining a new status. When several AUs that use the same
hopping set and different hopping sequences are co-located, their operation
should be synchronized in terms of hopping sequence initialization and
timing. One unit must be specified as a Master Unit and all other units must be
specified as Slave units. Available options are:
⇒ Idle – No synchronization (stand-alone operation)
⇒ Master – The AU that serves as a Master unit providing
synchronization signals to the Slave units
⇒ Slave – An AU that operates as a Slave.
