The survey personnel should be fully familiar with the details required to install the an E60 radio system. • FE60 and FE60X radios transport Fast Ethernet over the wireless connection (100Mbps full duplex) • GE60 and GE60X radios transport Gigabit Ethernet over the wireless connection (1000Mbps full duplex) • AR60 and AR60X radios have an adaptive rate over the wireless connection, depending on the fade margin in the link the radio will transmit either Gigabit Ethernet or Fast Ethernet over the air 2.2 Equipment Checklist The survey team will need the following equipment: • • • • Binoculars GPS Navigation Device Tape Measure Site Survey Report Form 2.3 Line of Sight (LOS) The E60 Wireless Ethernet link requires Line-of-Sight for proper operation. Fortunately, the links are relatively short and obstructions in the path can easily be identified. Binoculars can ease viewing in poor light conditions. The planning should include an investigation into future building plans that could block the LOS path, and other long-term incremental obstructions such as trees. Intermittent obstructions such as aircraft at a nearby airport should also be considered. The following table details the minimum clearance needed from obstacles near the path in order to ensure the radios will operate properly. 580-00507, rev 1 8 of 46 TM GE60 Installation Manual Path Length (meters) 250 500 750 1000 1500 2000 Minimum Clearance (meters) 0.56 0.79 0.97 1.12 1.37 1.58 Table 2-1: Minimum Clearance at Link Midpoint for various Path Lengths 2.4 Link Distance Measurement of the link distance is important in estimating the link availability and calculating expected Receive Signal Level (RSL). This measurement can be performed using the Latitude and Longitude readings from a Global Positioning System (GPS) device, which is placed near the proposed locations of the antennas, or using a range finder device. Table 2-2 below lists the maximum link distance with respect to desired availability and ITU rain zone (ITU-R Recommendation PN.837). The map (Figure 2-1) following the chart shows where the rain zones fit across North America and Asia for various availabilities and most ITU rain zones. The availability for the AR systems is a combination of the FE and GE tables of the same type (FE60 and GE60 or FE60X and GE60X) depending on the current condition of the link.

The ideal location should provide for ease of erecting and mounting the antenna, as well as unimpeded Line-OfSite (LOS) to the other site. The following factors should be taken into account: • • • • • • Type of mounting—wall or pole Location where the fiber and DC power wiring will enter/exit the building Length of cable runs Grounding connection points Obstructions Accessibility 2.6 Cabling The installation site should be inspected to determine the run paths for the fiber cable and power cable from the radio equipment to the termination point. Locations for roof penetration should be identified. The routing and securing of all cables should conform to all applicable codes and requirements. Depending on the likelihood of damage due to foot traffic or equipment movement, cabling conduit may be required. The maximum cable run length as specified for the equipment being installed must not be exceeded. The radio requires an LC type connectors on a pair of simplex multi-mode fibers to properly connect to the radio and the users network equipment. Single-mode fiber is not a current option supported by the radio. The network equipment end of the fibers should be terminated with connectors that match the network equipment fiber interface. Fiber Cable Length Up to 270 meters Up to 500 meters Cable Type 62.5/125 µm 50/125 µm Table 2-3: Fiber Cable Types All radios in the E60 product line include a 100-240 VAC power adaptor suitable for indoor operation that converts the AC voltage from the standard electrical outlet in the wall to DC voltage. Our radio requires a minimum of 15.0 VDC (24.0 VDC maximum) up the power cable to the radio to function properly. When planning the cable run from the indoor mounted AC power adaptor to the radio unit, it is critical to use the cable gauge (AWG) indicated below to ensure adequate voltage at the radio. The electrical cable that is used outside the building must be outdoor rated (i.e., weather-protected) providing a single pair of wires necessary to power the equipment. The required DC power cable is 12 gauge, 2 wire (i.e., 12/2) rated for outdoor use. 580-00507, rev 1 12 of 46 TM GE60 Installation Manual DC Cable Length Up to 250 meters Minimum Cable Size Outside Diameter of DC Cable Jacket (min-max)* Conductor size 0.17 – 0.45 inches 12 AWG (4.3 – 11.9 mm) (4mm ) Table 2-4: Minimum DC Cable Size *Note: Specification is for the outdoor weather-protected portion of the DC cable entering the radio enclosure. The indoor portion of the DC cable must comply with local building and/or electrical codes in your area. Figure 2-3 (left) details a standard 12-gauge wire that has been fitted with the power connectors (provided) for the radio’s internal power supply necessary to mate with the provided power cord. A standard crimping/splicing tool (not provided) is required to terminate the power connectors onto the 12-gauge cable required for use with the E60 products. Figure 2-3: 12-gauge DC power cable with crimp connectors 2.7 Grounding & Lightning Protection WARNING! Proper grounding of the outdoor equipment reduces electromagnetic interference, provides lightning protection, and protects against electrical discharge. The source and connection points for the building-to-earth ground in the vicinity of the antenna location should be determined. It is recommended to integrate the radio ground into the building ground utilizing the pole mount hardware. For wall or ungrounded pole mounts connect a grounding wire to the grounding point on the radio. Select the size of the ground wire based on the National Electrical Code. 580-00507, rev 1 13 of 46 TM GE60 Installation Manual In addition to grounding the equipment, BridgeWave strongly recommends, and local building codes may require, the DC electrical cable to be protected from lightning strikes. You may use a Polyphaser surge suppressor, model # IS-PSP-24 (or equivalent model from another manufacturer). The surge suppressor must be installed at the point where the DC electrical cable exits/enters the building. The Polyphaser device is available from the following companies: Hutton Communications TESSCO Technologies Winncom Technologies Corp. 877-648-8866 800-472-7373 888-946-6266 www.huttoncom.com www.tessco.com www.winncom.com 2.8 Environmental The structure to which the equipment will be mounted should be adequate to bear all wind and other weather conditions. The environmental conditions at the location must conform to the operating environment specified for the equipment. 580-00507, rev 1 14 of 46 TM GE60 Installation Manual 2.9 Simple Network Diagram Following is a diagram detailing the equipment and cabling found on a typical installation of BridgeWave’s 60GHz radio equipment.
