  Page 4 Important regulatory information The 450 Platform Family products are certified as an unlicensed device in frequency bands where it is not allowed to cause interference to licensed services (called primary users of the bands). Application software Download the latest 450 Platform Family software and install it in the Outdoor Units (ODUs) before deploying the equipment. Instructions for installing software are provided in Upgrading the software version and using CNUT on page 7-66. USA specific information   Caution This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: • This device may not cause harmful interference, and • This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation  The USA Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires manufacturers to implement special features to prevent interference to weather radar systems that operate in the band 5600 MHz to 5650 MHz. These features must be implemented in all products able to operate outdoors in the band 5470 MHz to 5725 MHz. Manufacturers must ensure that such radio products cannot be configured to operate outside of FCC rules; specifically it must not be possible to disable or modify the radar protection functions that have been demonstrated to the FCC. Cambium supplies variants of the 450i and 450m Series specifically for operation in the USA in order to comply with FCC requirements (KDB 905462 D02 UNII DFS Compliance Procedures New Rules v01r02). These variants are only allowed to operate with license keys that comply with FCC rules.  Similarly, Cambium supplies variants of the 450 Series specifically for operation in the USA in order to comply with FCC requirements (KDB 443999 D01 Approval of DFS UNII Devices v01r04). These variants are only allowed to operate with license keys that comply with FCC rules. To ensure compliance when using PMP 450 Series and PTP 450 Series, follow the recommendation in Avoidance of weather radars (USA only).
  Page 5 External antennas When using a connectorized version of the product, the conducted transmit power may need to be reduced to ensure the regulatory limit on transmitter EIRP is not exceeded. The installer must have an understanding of how to compute the effective antenna gain from the actual antenna gain and the feeder cable losses. The range of permissible values for maximum antenna gain and feeder cable losses are included in this user guide together with a sample calculation. The product GUI automatically applies the correct conducted power limit to ensure that it is not possible for the installation to exceed the EIRP limit, when the appropriate values for antenna gain and feeder cable losses are entered into the GUI. Avoidance of weather radars (USA only) To comply with FCC rules (KDB 443999: Interim Plans to Approve UNII Devices Operating in the 5470 - 5725 MHz Band with Radar Detection and DFS Capabilities), units which are installed within 35 km (22 miles) of a Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) system (or have a line of sight propagation path to such a system) must be configured to avoid any frequency within +30 MHz or –30 MHz of the frequency of the TDWR device. This requirement applies even if the master is outside the 35 km (22 miles) radius but communicates with outdoor clients which may be within the 35 km (22 miles) radius of the TDWRs. If interference is not eliminated, a distance limitation based on line-of-sight from TDWR will need to be used. Devices with bandwidths greater than 20 MHz may require greater frequency separation. When planning a link in the USA, visit http://spectrumbridge.com/udia/home.aspx, enter the location of the planned link and search for TDWR radars. If a TDWR system is located within 35 km (22 miles) or has line of sight propagation to the PTP device, perform the following tasks: • Register the installation on http://spectrumbridge.com/udia/home.aspx. • Make a list of channel center frequencies that must be barred, that is, those falling within +30 MHz or –30 MHz of the frequency of the TDWR radars. The 450 Platform Family AP must be configured to not operate on the affected channels. Canada specific information  Caution This device complies with ISEDC ’s license-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause interference; and (2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.  ISEDC requires manufacturers to implement special features to prevent interference to weather radar systems that operate in the band 5600 MHz to 5650 MHz. These features must be implemented in all products able to operate outdoors in the band 5470 MHz to 5725 MHz.
  Page 6 Manufacturers must ensure that such radio products cannot be configured to operate outside of ISEDC rules; specifically it must not be possible to disable or modify the radar protection functions that have been demonstrated to ISEDC . In order to comply with these ISEDC  requirements, Cambium supplies variants of the 450 Platform Family for operation in Canada. These variants are only allowed to operate with license keys that comply with ISEDC  rules. In particular, operation of radio channels overlapping the band 5600 MHz to 5650 MHz is not allowed and these channels are permanently barred. In addition, other channels may also need to be barred when operating close to weather radar installations. Other variants of the 450 Platform Family are available for use in the rest of the world, but these variants are not supplied to Canada except under strict controls, when they are needed for export and deployment outside Canada.

Chapter 1:  Product description Wireless operation   Page 1-17 Wireless operation This section describes how the 450 Platform Family wireless link is operated, including modulation modes, power control and security. Time division duplexing The system uses Time Division Duplexing (TDD) – one channel alternately transmits and receives rather than using one channel for transmitting and a second channel for receiving. The radio link operates on a single frequency channel in each direction using TDD. The AP operates in TDMA mode to service multiple SMs. To accomplish TDD, the AP/BHM must provide sync to its SM/BHS. Furthermore, collocated APs/BHMs must be synced together – an unsynchronized AP/BHM that transmits during the receive cycle of a collocated AP/BHM can prevent a second AP/BHM from being able to decode the signals from its APs/BHSs. In addition, across a geographical area, APs/BHMs that can “hear” each other benefit from using a common sync to further reduce self-interference within the network. Modules use TDD on a common frequency to divide frames for uplink (orange) and downlink (green) usage, as shown in the figure below. For more information on synchronization configuration options, see GPS synchronization on page 2-47. Figure 2 TDD frame division       Time
Chapter 1:  Product description Wireless operation   Page 1-18 TDD frame parameters The TDD burst duration varies depending on the following: • Channel Bandwidth • Cyclic Prefix • Frame Period • Frame configuration - Downlink Data • Link operation – Dynamic Rate Adaptation  OFDM and channel bandwidth The PMP/PTP 450 Platform Family transmits using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). This wideband signal consists of many equally spaced sub-carriers. Although each sub carrier is modulated at a low rate using conventional modulation schemes, the resultant data rate from the sub-carriers is high. OFDM works exceptionally over a Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) channel.  The channel bandwidth of the OFDM signal is configurable to one of the following values: 5, 7, 10, 15, 20 and 30 MHz. Higher bandwidths provide greater link capacity at the expense of using more bandwidth. Systems configured for a narrower channel bandwidth provide better receiver sensitivity and can also be an appropriate choice in deployments where the amount of free spectrum is limited.   Note The channel bandwidth must be configured to the same value at both ends of the link. Not all channel bandwidths are available in all regulatory bands.  Cyclic Prefix OFDM technology uses a cyclic prefix, where a portion of the end of a symbol (slot) is repeated at the beginning of the symbol (slot) to allow multi-pathing to settle before receiving the desired data. A 1/16 cyclic prefix means that for every 16 bits of throughput data transmitted, an additional bit is used. For your convenience, the 450 Platform Family ODUs have been locked to a 1/16 CP. Frame Period  The frame period or frame duration is the time between the beginning of a frame and the end of the frame. The 450 Platform Family supports two frame periods: 2.5 ms and 5 ms.   Note PMP 450m AP supports 2.5 ms Frame Period only.
Chapter 1:  Product description Wireless operation   Page 1-19 The 5ms frame period configuration provides higher throughput as a result of reduced frame overhead during transmission. In turn, the 2.5 ms frame period configuration affords reduced latency in the system, half of that introduced by the 5 ms frame configuration. Frame configuration - Downlink Data The percentage of frame assigned to transport downlink data. The downlink data specifies the percentage of the aggregate throughput for the downlink (frames transmitted from the AP/BHM to the subscriber). The configurable range is 15% to 85%.   Note The maximum configurable range is 34% to 66% for 40 MHz with 5 ms frame.  Link operation – Dynamic Rate Adapt The 450 Platform Family ODUs offer eight levels or speeds of operation – 2X MIMO-B and 1X MIMO-A (QPSK), 4X MIMO-B and 2X MIMO-A (16-QAM), 6x MIMO-B and 3X MIMO-A (64-QAM) and 8X MIMO-B and 4X MIMO-A (265-QAM). If received power varies due to distance between the AP/BHM and the SM/BHS or due to obstructions, or if interference affects the RF environment, the system automatically and dynamically adjusts the links to the best operation level.  The system chooses its modulation rate dynamically, based on an internal ARQ (Automatic Repeat reQuest) error control method. With ARQ, every data slot of every frame sent over the air (except downlink broadcast) is expected to be acknowledged by the receiver, and if acknowledgement is not received, the data is resent. The sending unit monitors these re-sends and adjusts the modulation rate accordingly. It is normal to have links that change levels of operation as the RF environment changes. Furthermore, the uplink or downlink portions of TDD duty cycle operate independently. The various modulation levels used by 450 Platform Family are shown in Table 11. Table 11 Modulation levels Rate MIMO-B MIMO-A QPSK  2X MIMO-B  1X MIMO-A 16-QAM 4X MIMO-B  2X MIMO-A 64-QAM 6X MIMO-B  3X MIMO-A 256-QAM 8X MIMO-B  4X MIMO-A
Chapter 1:  Product description Wireless operation   Page 1-20  Note MIMO-A achieves half the throughput of MIMO-B but adds a combining diversity (gain) which enhances the link budget or availability. Encryption The 450 Platform Family supports optional encryption for data transmitted over the wireless link. The 450 Platform Family supports the following forms of encryption for security of the wireless link: • DES (Data Encryption Standard): An over-the-air link encryption option that uses secret 56-bit keys and 8 parity bits. DES performs a series of bit permutations, substitutions, and recombination operations on blocks of data. DES encryption does not affect the performance or throughput of the system. • AES (Advanced Encryption Standard): An over-the-air link encryption option that uses the Rijndael algorithm and 128-bit keys and 256-bit key size to establish a higher level of security than DES. AES products are certified as compliant with the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS 197) in the U.S.A.  The default setting on an AP is "Disabled".  MIMO Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) techniques provide protection against fading and increase the probability that the receiver decodes a usable signal. When the effects of MIMO are combined with those of OFDM techniques and a high link budget, there is a high probability of a robust connection over a non-line-of-sight path. The sub-features that comprises the MIMO techniques utilized in the 450 Platform Family ODUs are: • MIMO-A: This technique enables 450 Platform Family radio to use a scheme that optimizes coverage by transmitting the same data over both antennas. This redundancy improves the signal to noise ratio at the receiver making it more robust. • MIMO-B: This technique provides the ability to double the throughput of a radio transmission under proper RF conditions. Different data streams are transmitted simultaneously on two different antennas.  MU-MIMO Multiple-input multiple-output, or MIMO, is a range of technologies used to multiply the capacity of a wireless connection without requiring more spectrum.
Chapter 1:  Product description Wireless operation   Page 1-21 Although traditional MIMO techniques are focused on increasing the bandwidth available between two wireless nodes, multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) applies these technologies to increase overall wireless network capacity by allowing an access point to communicate wirelessly with more than one wireless node at once. A MU-MIMO access point features an array of antennas. When the AP decides to communicate with multiple nodes at the same time, it creates multiple simultaneous beams each directed to a specific node. This is contrast to a traditional wireless system, where two wireless nodes cannot communicate on the same channel to the same access point at the same time, without causing significant self-interference and degrading the overall wireless network performance.  A MU-MIMO access point estimates and measures what a transmission from each wireless node ‘sounds like’, by applying knowledge of the wireless path characteristics between the access point and node. Known as channel estimation, this process is of vital importance; without it, the access point cannot distinguish properly between wireless nodes, affecting performance. Channel estimation is achieved by the access point sending a specific signal to a wireless node, which the node then reflects back. By measuring how the signal was received back from the node, the access point can estimate the wireless conditions between itself and the node, and know to expect these same conditions to be applied to other communications from that node. This is known as channel sounding. Channel estimation and sounding must be regularly repeated to ensure wireless network performance remains high; the speed at which a system is able to accurately estimate the channel has a large impact on performance. Once channel estimation is completed for a wireless node, the MU-MIMO access point can electrically tune each antenna to provide the highest performance for that node. The access point uses beamforming to create a radio beam to that node which is tuned for optimum performance and avoids beams directed to other nodes, reducing interference and helping to improve overall wireless network capacity. A MU-MIMO access point can communicate to multiple wireless nodes simultaneously using this process. As the majority of nodes are unable to make full use of the whole access point capacity at once, communicating with several nodes simultaneously can greatly improve the overall capacity achieved in the wireless network. .
Chapter 1:  Product description System management   Page 1-22 System management This section introduces the 450 Platform Family management system, including the web interface, installation, configuration, alerts and upgrades. Management agent The 450 Platform Family radios are managed through an embedded management agent.  Management workstations, network management systems or PCs can be connected to this agent using the module’s Ethernet port or over-the air (SM/BHS)  The management agent supports the following interfaces:  • Hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP)  • Hypertext transfer protocol secure (HTTPS) • RADIUS authentication  • Simple network management protocol (SNMP) – v2c and v3 • Network time protocol (NTP)  • System logging (Syslog)  • Wireless Manager (WM) software  • Canopy Network Updater Tool (CNUT) software  • cnMaestro™ Web server The 450 Platform Family management agent contains a web server. The web server supports access via the HTTP/HTTPS interface. Web-based management offers a convenient way to manage the 450 Platform Family radios from a locally connected computer or from a network management workstation connected through a management network, without requiring any special management software. The web and SNMP are the interfaces supported for installation of 450 Platform Family radios and for the majority of  configuration management tasks.
Chapter 1:  Product description System management   Page 1-23 Web pages The web-based management interfaces provide comprehensive web-based fault, configuration, performance and security management functions organized into the following groups: Access Point or Backhaul Master: • Home • Configuration • Statistics • Tools • Logs • Accounts • Quick Start • Copyright  Subscriber Module or Backhaul Slave • Home • Configuration • Statistics • Tools • Logs • Accounts • PDA • Copyright Identity-based user accounts • When identity-based user accounts are configured, a security officer can define from one to four user accounts, each of which may have one of the four possible roles: • ADMINISTRATOR, who has full read and write permissions. This is the level of the root and admin users, as well as any other administrator accounts that one of them creates. • INSTALLER, who has permissions identical to those of ADMINISTRATOR except that the installer cannot add or delete users or change the password of any other user. • TECHNICIAN, who has permissions to modify basic radio parameters and view informational web pages • GUEST, who has no write permissions and only a limited view of General Status tab • Admin, Installer and Tech accounts can be configured as READ-ONLY. This will allow the account to only see the items. See Managing module access by passwords for detailed information on account permissions.
Chapter 1:  Product description System management   Page 1-24 Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) The PMP configuration of 450 Platform Family includes support for RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) protocol functionality including: • SM Authentication: Allows only known SMs onto the network (blocking “rogue” SMs), and can be configured to ensure SMs are connecting to a known network (preventing SMs from connecting to “rogue” APs). RADIUS authentication is used for SMs, but not used for APs. • SM Configuration: Configures authenticated SMs with MIR (Maximum Information Rate), High Priority, and VLAN (Virtual LAN) parameters from the RADIUS server when a SM registers to an AP. • User Authentication allows users to configure a separate User authentication server along with the SM authentication server. If firmware is upgraded while using this functionality and no User authentication servers are configured, then AP continues to use the SM authentication server for User authentication • SM Accounting provides support for RADIUS accounting messages for usage-based billing. This accounting includes indications for subscriber session establishment, subscriber session disconnection, and bandwidth usage per session for each SM that connects to the AP. • Centralized AP and SM user name and password management: Allows AP and SM usernames and access levels (Administrator, Installer, Technician and Read-Only) to be centrally administered in the RADIUS server instead of on each radio and tracks access events (logon/logoff) for each username on the RADIUS server. This accounting does not track and report specific configuration actions performed on radios or pull statistics such as bit counts from the radios. Such functions require an Element Management System (EMS) such as Cambium Wireless Manager. This accounting is not the ability to perform accounting functions on the subscriber/end user/customer account. • Framed-IP-Address: Operators may use a RADIUS server to assign management IP addressing to SM modules. SNMP The management agent supports fault and performance management by means of an SNMP interface. The management agent is compatible with SNMP v2c and SNMP v3 using Management Information Base (MIB) files which are available for download from the Cambium Networks Support website: https://support.cambiumnetworks.com/files/ptp450 https://support.cambiumnetworks.com/files/pmp450 Network Time Protocol (NTP) The clock supplies accurate date and time information to the system. It can be set to run with or without a connection to a network time server (NTP). It can be configured to display local time by setting the time zone and daylight saving in the Time web page. If an NTP server connection is available, the clock can be set to synchronize with the server time at regular intervals. The 450 Platform Family radios may receive NTP data from a CMM4 module or an NTP server configured in the system’s management network.
Chapter 1:  Product description System management   Page 1-25 The Time Zone option is configurable on the AP’s/BHM’s Time Configuration page, and may be used to offset the received NTP time to match the operator’s local time zone. When set on the AP/BHM, the offset is set for the entire sector (AP/BHSs is notified of the current Time Zone upon initial registration). If a Time Zone change is applied, the AP/BHSs are notified of the change in a best effort fashion, meaning some AP/BHSs may not pick up the change until the next re-registration. Time Zone changes are noted in the Event Log. An AP/BHM which is receiving NTP date and time information from an NTP server or from a GPS synchronization source may be used as an NTP server. Any client which has IP connectivity to the BHM may request NTP date and time information from the AP/BHM. No additional configuration (other than the AP/BHM receiving valid NTP data) is required to use the AP/BHM as an NTP server.

Chapter 1:  Product description System management   Page 1-27 Radio recovery mode  The 450 Platform Family recovery mode provides a means to recover from serious configuration errors including lost or forgotten passwords and unknown IP addresses.  The recovery procedure for 450m/450i/450b series and 450 series ODUs differ due to difference in hardwares. This procedure for 450i/450m Series is known as Radio Recovery Console and for 450 Series is known as Default mode (or Default/Override Plug).  Radio Recovery Console – 450i, 450b and 450m Series  The Radio Recovery Console mode supports: • Restoring factory default IP address 169.254.1.1 and password • Boot with factory default Canopy system software settings • Load previously installed SW images See Radio Recovery Console– PMP/PTP 450i/450b and PMP 450m on page 9-39. Default Mode (or Default Plug) – 450 Series  A default plug is available to provide access to a module whose password and/or IP address have been forgotten.  This plug allows the 450 Series ODUs to be accessed using IP address 169.254.1.1 and no password. During the override session, you can assign any new IP address and set either or both user passwords (display-only and/or full access) as well as make other parameter changes. See Default Mode (or Default/Override Plug) - PMP/PTP 450 on page 9-41.

Chapter 2:  System hardware Cabling   Page 2-36 Outdoor copper Cat5e Ethernet cable Outdoor Cat5e cable is used for all connections that terminate outside the building. For example, connections between the ODU, surge suppressors (if installed), UGPS receivers (if installed) and the power supply injector. This is known as a “drop cable” (Figure 25). The following practices are essential to the reliability and longevity of cabled connections: • Use only shielded cables and connectors to resist interference and corrosion. • For vertical runs, provide cable support and strain relief. • Include a 2 ft (0.6 m) service loop on each end of the cable to allow for thermal expansion and contraction and to facilitate terminating the cable again when needed. • Include a drip loop to shed water so that most of the water does not reach the connector at the device. • Properly crimp all connectors. • Use dielectric grease on all connectors to resist corrosion.

Chapter 2:  System hardware GPS synchronization   Page 2-47 GPS synchronization GPS synchronization description Cambium offers GPS synchronization to limit the network’s own self-interference. The Cluster Management CMM provides Global Positioning System (GPS) synchronization to the Access Point (AP) and all associated Subscriber Modules (SM). Network operators have a choice of UGPS and CMM solutions to select the option that works best for the environment. Universal GPS (UGPS) The UGPS provides network synchronization for smaller networks where a CMM may not be cost effective. The UGPS provides synchronization for one or two modules so that even remote areas at the edge of the network can operate with synchronization for improved performance. The UGPS works with all Cambium PMP radios. The UGPS has a small footprint and is easy to deploy. Figure 32 UGPS    Note PMP 450/450i/450m Series - APs can power up a UGPS via the Aux/Timing port.  Note PMP 450i/450b/450m Series - If two units are to get sync from the UGPS, then an external power supply is required.  If the GPS position information is required to be visible on the web GUI, then the UGPS power must be enabled on the AP; and it is safe to use both AP power and external power for a single UGPS unit.

Chapter 2:  System hardware GPS synchronization   Page 2-53 CMM4 (Rack Mount) The Cluster Management Module (CMM) is the heart of the Cambium system’s synchronization capability, which allows network operators to reuse frequencies and add capacity while ensuring consistency in the quality of service to customers.  For operators who prefer indoor CMM mounting, Cambium offers the Rack-Mounted Cluster Management Module 4. The unit is designed to be mounted onto a standard 19-inch telecommunications rack and to allow the Cambium CMM4 to be co-located with other telecommunications equipment. Figure 37 CMM4 (Rack Mount)   The CMM4 has two DC power inputs, one 29 V and one 56V. It can be used to power and synchronize both 29 V legacy products such as the PMP 450 Series and 56V products such as the PMP 450i Series simultaneously. If the 29 V legacy products are connected to the CMM4, a 29 V power supply needs to be connected.  If the 450i Series is connected to the CMM4, a 56 V power supply needs to be connected. The CMM4 supports having two of the 56 V and two of the 29 V supplies for redundancy.    Warning PMP 450i Series requires different wiring between the CMM4 and device. If a PMP450 Series ODU is replaced by a PMP 450i Series and the existing drop cable needs to be re-used, the Ethernet cable adapter for CMM4 - N000045L001A" must be used between the CMM4 and the existing drop cable.

The cluster management module is the heart of the system’s synchronization capability which allows network operators to re-use frequencies and add capacity while ensuring consistency in the quality of service to customers. As a result, subscribers can experience carrier-grade service even at the outer edge of the network. Figure 40 CMM4 (Cabinet with switch)  CMM4 (Cabinet without switch) This CMM includes all the functionality listed above but there is no switch. This provides the network operator the flexibility to use the switch of their choice with the power and synchronization capabilities of the CMM4.
Chapter 2:  System hardware GPS synchronization   Page 2-57 CMM3/CMMmicro The CMM3 or CMMmicro (Cluster Management Module micro) provides power, GPS timing, and networking connections for an AP cluster. The CMM3 is configurable through a web interface. The CMM3 contains an 8-port managed switch that supports Power over Ethernet (PoE – this is Cambium PoE, not the standard PoE) on each port and connects any combination of APs, BHMs, BHSs, or Ethernet feed. The Cambium fixed wireless broadband IP networks PoE differs from IEEE Standard 803.3af PoE, and the two should not be intermixed. The CMM3 can auto-negotiate speed to match inputs that are either 100Base-TX or 10Base-T, and either full duplex or half duplex, where the connected device is set to auto-negotiate. Alternatively, these parameters are settable. A CMM3 requires only one cable, terminating in an RJ-45 connector, for each connected module to distribute • Ethernet signaling. • power to as many as 8 co-located modules—APs, BHMs, or BHSs. Through a browser interface to the managed switch, ports can be powered or not. • sync to APs and BHMs. The CMM3 receives 1-pulse per second timing information from Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites through an antenna (included) and passes the timing pulse embedded in the 24-V power to the connected modules. GPS status information is available at the CMM3, however • CMM3 provides time and date information to BHMs and APs if both the CMMmicro is operating on CMMmicro Release 2.1 or later and the AP/BHM is operating on System Release 4.2 or later. See Configuring time settings  on Page 7-18. • CMM3 does not provide time and date information to BHMs and APs if either the CMM3 is operating on a release earlier than CMMmicro Release 2.1 or the AP/BHM is operating on a release earlier than System Release 4.2. A CMM3/CMMicro is shown in Figure 41 and Figure 42.

Chapter 2:  System hardware Installing a GPS receiver   Page 2-59 Installing a GPS receiver  To install a GPS receiver as the timing reference source, use the following procedures: • Mounting the GPS receiver on page 2-60 • Cabling the GPS Antenna on page 2-61 • Installing and connecting the GPS LPU on page 2-61   Caution Prior to power-up of equipment, ensure that all cables are connected to the correct interfaces of the CMM4 unit and the UGPS receiver module. Failure to do so may result in damage to the equipment. GPS receiver location Mount the GPS receiver at a location that meets the following requirements: • It must be possible to protect the installation as described in Grounding and lightning protection on page 3-8. • It must have an un-interrupted view of at least half of the southern (resp. northern) sky in the northern (resp. southern) hemisphere. For a receiver mounted on a wall there must be no other significant obstructions in the view of the sky. • It must be mounted at least 1 m (3 ft), preferably 2 m (6 ft), away from other GPS receiving equipment. • It must not be sited in the field of radiation of co-located radio communications equipment and should be positioned at a distance of at least 3 m (10 ft) away. Mount the UGPS receiver on the wall of the equipment building if there is a suitable location on the wall that can meet these requirements.   Caution The GPS receiver is not approved for operation in locations where gas hazards exist, as defined by HAZLOC (USA) and ATEX (Europe).  Mounting the GPS receiver module on the equipment building If mounting the GPS receiver on the equipment building (Figure 47), select a position on the wall that meets the following requirements: • It must be below the roof height of the equipment building or below the height of any roof-mounted equipment (such as air conditioning plant). • It must be below the lightning air terminals. • It must not project more than 600mm (24 inches) from the wall of the building.
Chapter 2:  System hardware Installing a GPS receiver   Page 2-60 If these requirements cannot all be met, then the module must be mounted on a metal tower or mast. Mounting the GPS receiver module on a metal tower or mast If mounting the GPS receiver module on a metal tower or mast (Figure 48), select a position that meets the following requirements: • It must not be mounted any higher than is necessary to receive an adequate signal from four GPS satellites. • It must be protected by a nearby lightning air terminal that projects farther out from the tower than the GPS receiver module.  Mounting the GPS receiver Mount the UGPS receiver (following manufacturer’s instructions) upon either an external wall (Figure 47) or a metal tower or mast (Figure 48). Figure 43 GPS antenna mounting
Chapter 2:  System hardware Installing a GPS receiver   Page 2-61 Procedure 1 Mounting the GPS receiver 1 Ensure that the mounting position • has an unobstructed view of the sky to 20º above the horizon. • is not the highest object at the site. (The GPS antenna does not need to be particularly high on a site, which would give it more exposure to lightning. It just needs to have an unobstructed view of the sky.) • is not further than 100 feet (30.4 meters) of cable from the CMM. 2 Select a pole that has an outside diameter of 1.25 to 1.5 inches (3 to 4 cm) to which the GPS antenna bracket can be mounted. 3 Place the U-bolts (provided) around the pole as shown in Figure 45. 4 Slide the GPS antenna bracket onto the U-bolts. 5 Slide the ring washers (provided) onto the U-bolts. 6 Slide the lock washers (provided) onto the U-bolts. 7 Use the nuts (provided) to securely fasten the bracket to the U-bolts.  Please refer to the PMP Synchronization Solutions User Guide located on the Cambium website (http://www.cambiumnetworks.com/resources/pmp-synchronization-solutions ). Cabling the GPS Antenna Connect the GPS coax cable to the female N-connector on the GPS antenna. Please refer to the PMP Synchronization Solutions User Guide located on the Cambium website (http://www.cambiumnetworks.com/resources/pmp-synchronization-solutions ). Installing and connecting the GPS LPU Install and ground the GPS drop cable LPU at the building (or cabinet) entry point, as described in Install the bottom LPU on page 6-24.

Chapter 3:  System planning Typical deployment   Page 3-2 Typical deployment This section contains diagrams illustrating typical PMP/PTP 450 Platform site deployments. ODU with PoE interface to PSU In the basic configuration, there is only one Ethernet interface, a copper cable for Power over Ethernet (PoE) from the PSU to the ODU (PSU port), as shown in the following diagrams: mast or tower installation (Figure 44), wall installation (Figure 45) and roof installation (Figure 46).

Chapter 3:  System planning Site planning   Page 3-7 Site planning This section describes factors to be considered when choosing sites for PMP or PTP radios, power supplies, CMM4 (if applicable) and UGPS (if applicable). Site selection for PMP/PTP radios When selecting a site for the ODU, consider the following factors: • Height and location to ensure that people are kept away from the antenna; see Calculated distances and power compliance margins on page 4-25. • Height and location to achieve the best radio path. • Indoor location where the power supply LED indicators will be visible, so the drop cable length will not exceed the maximum recommended length; see Power supply site selection on page 3-8. • Ability to meet the requirements specified in Grounding and lightning protection on page 3-8. • Aesthetics and planning permission issues. • Cable lengths; see Ethernet standards and cable lengths on page 2-35. • The effect of strong winds on the installation; see ODU wind loading on page 3-11.
Chapter 3:  System planning Site planning   Page 3-8 Power supply site selection  When selecting a site for the ODU power supply, consider the following factors: • Indoor location with no possibility of condensation, flooding or high humidity. • Availability of a mains electricity supply. • Located in an environment where it is not likely to exceed its operational temperature rating, allowing for natural convection cooling. • Accessibility for viewing status indicator LED and connecting Ethernet cables. • Cable lengths; see Ethernet standards and cable lengths on page 2-35. Maximum cable lengths When installing PMP/PTP 450i Series ODU, the maximum permitted length of the shielded copper Ethernet interface cable is 330 feet (100m) from AP/BHM/SM/BHS to their associated power supplies or CMM4.  When installing PMP 450m Series ODU, the maximum permitted length of the shielded copper Ethernet interface cable is 330 feet (100m) from ODU to the network interface equipment. Grounding and lightning protection  Warning Electro-magnetic discharge (lightning) damage is not covered under warranty. The recommendations in this guide, when followed correctly, give the user the best protection from the harmful effects of EMD. However, 100% protection is neither implied nor possible.  Structures, equipment and people must be protected against power surges (typically caused by lightning) by conducting the surge current to ground via a separate preferential solid path. The actual degree of protection required depends on local conditions and applicable local regulations. To adequately protect a PMP/PTP 450 Platform installation, both ground bonding and transient voltage surge suppression are required. Full details of lightning protection methods and requirements can be found in the international standards IEC 61024-1 and IEC 61312-1, the U.S. National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984 or section 54 of the Canadian Electric Code.   Warning International and national standards take precedence over the requirements in this guide.
Chapter 3:  System planning Site planning   Page 3-9 Lightning protection zones Use the rolling sphere method (Figure 49) to determine where it is safe to mount equipment. An imaginary sphere, typically 50 meters in radius, is rolled over the structure. Where the sphere rests against the ground and a strike termination device (such as a finial or ground bar), all the space under the sphere is considered to be in the zone of protection (Zone B). Similarly, where the sphere rests on two finials, the space under the sphere is considered to be in the zone of protection. Figure 49 Rolling sphere method to determine the lightning protection zones  Zone A: In this zone a direct lightning strike is possible. Do not mount equipment in this zone. Zone B: In this zone, direct EMD (lightning) effects are still possible, but mounting in this zone significantly reduces the possibility of a direct strike. Mount equipment in this zone.  Warning Never mount equipment in Zone A. Mounting in Zone A may put equipment, structures and life at risk.
Chapter 3:  System planning Site planning   Page 3-10 Site grounding system Confirm that the site has a correctly installed grounding system on a common ground ring with access points for grounding the 450 Platform Family ODU. If the outdoor equipment is to be installed on the roof of a high building (Figure 46), confirm that the following additional requirements are met: • A grounding conductor is installed around the roof perimeter to form the main roof perimeter lightning protection ring. • Air terminals are installed along the length of the main roof perimeter lightning protection ring, typically every 6.1m (20ft). • The main roof perimeter lightning protection ring contains at least two down conductors connected to the grounding electrode system. The down conductors should be physically separated from one another, as far as practical. ODU and external antenna location Find a location for the ODU (and external antenna for connectorized units) that meets the following requirements: • The equipment is high enough to achieve the best radio path. • People can be kept a safe distance away from the equipment when it is radiating. The safe separation distances are defined in Calculated distances and power compliance margins on page 4-25. • The equipment is lower than the top of the supporting structure (tower, mast or building) or its lightning air terminal. • If the ODU is connectorized, select a mounting position that gives it maximum protection from the elements, but still allows easy access for connecting and weatherproofing the cables. To minimize cable losses, select a position where the antenna cable lengths can be minimized. If diverse or two external antennas are being deployed, it is not necessary to mount the ODU at the midpoint of the antennas. ODU ambient temperature limits Select a location where the ODU can operate within safe ambient temperature limits. The following points need to be considered while selecting a location for the ODU: • The ODU must be mounted in a Restricted Access Location (as defined in EN 60950-1) if the operating ambient temperature may exceed 40°C, including solar radiation. • If the ambient temperature never exceeds 40°C, the temperature of the external metal case parts of the ODU will not exceed the touch temperature limit of 70°C.  • If the ambient temperature never exceeds 60°C, the temperature of the external metal case parts of the ODU will not exceed the touch temperature limit of 90°C.
Chapter 3:  System planning Site planning   Page 3-11  Note A restricted access location is defined (in EN 60950-1) as one where access may only be gained by use of a tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and access is controlled by the authority responsible for the location. Access must only be gained by persons who have been instructed about the reasons for the restrictions applied to the location and about any precautions that must be taken. Examples of permissible restricted access locations are a lockable equipment room or a lockable cabinet.  ODU wind loading Ensure that the ODU and the structure on which it is mounted are capable of withstanding the prevalent wind speeds at a proposed 450 Platform site. Wind speed statistics are available from national meteorological offices. The ODU and its mounting bracket are capable of withstanding wind speeds of: • Up to 200 mph (322 kph) for PMP 450m Series – AP 5 GHz • Up to 124 mph (Integrated) for PMP/PTP 450i – all models 3 GHz and 5 GHz • Up to 200 mph (Connectorized) for PMP/PTP 450i – all models 3 GHz and 5 GHz • Up to 200 mph (322 kph) for PMP/PTP 450 – all models • Up to 200 mph (322 kph) for PMP 450 – Ruggedized  • Up to 200 mph (322 kph) for PMP 450i – all models 900 MHz • Up to 118 mph (191 kph) for PMP 450b • Up to 90 mph (145 kph) for PMP 450d • Up to 100 mph (161 kph) for 900 MHz antennas  Wind blowing on the ODU will subject the mounting structure to significant lateral force. The magnitude of the force depends on both wind strength and surface area of the ODU. Wind loading is estimated using the following formulae: • Force (in kilograms) = 0.1045aV2  where: o “a” is the surface area in square meters, and o “V” is the wind speed in meters per second. • Force (in pounds) = 0.0042Av2  where: o “A” is the surface area in square feet, and o “v” is the wind speed in miles per hour. Applying these formulae to the 450 platform at different wind speeds, the resulting wind loadings are shown in below tables.

Chapter 3:  System planning Site planning   Page 3-15 Hazardous locations Check that the ODUs will not be exposed to hazardous gases, as defined by HAZLOC (USA) and ATEX (Europe) regulations. If there is a risk of such exposure, then order the PTP/PMP 450i ATEX/Hazloc product variants, as these are intended for operation in locations with gas hazards. The ATEX and HAZLOC standards limit the EIRP as shown in Table 77.

For mast or tower installations (Figure 44), use the following additional criteria: • The drop cable shield must be grounded at the bottom of the tower, near the vertical to horizontal transition point. This ground cable must be bonded to the tower or tower ground bus bar (TGB), if installed.
Chapter 3:  System planning Site planning   Page 3-16 • If the tower is greater than 61 m (200 ft) in height, the drop cable shield must be grounded at the tower midpoint, and at additional points as necessary to reduce the distance between ground cables to 61 m (200 ft) or less. • In high lightning-prone geographical areas, the drop cable shield must be grounded at spacing between 15 to 22 m (50 to 75 ft). This is especially important on towers taller than 45 m (150 ft). For roof installations (Figure 46), use the following additional criteria: • The drop cable shield must be bonded to the building grounding system at its top entry point (usually on the roof). • The drop cable shield must be bonded to the building grounding system at the entry point to the equipment room. Lightning Protection Unit (LPU) location Find a location for the bottom LPU that meets the following requirements: • The bottom LPU can be connected to the drop cable from the ODU. • The bottom LPU is within 600 mm (24 in) of the point at which the drop cable enters the building, enclosure or equipment room within a larger building. • The bottom LPU can be bonded to the grounding system.
Chapter 3:  System planning Radio Frequency planning   Page 3-17 Radio Frequency planning This section describes how to plan 450 Platform Family links to conform to analysis of spectrum and the regulatory restrictions that apply in the country of operation. Regulatory limits Many countries impose EIRP limits (Allowed EIRP) on products operating in the bands used by the 450 Platform Family.  Refer to Equipment Disposal (Chapter 10: Reference information) on page 10-54 to determine what the maximum transmitted power and EIRP for PMP/PTP 450 Platform that can be used in each of countries and frequency band.   Caution It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the PMP/PTP ODU is operated in accordance with local regulatory limits.  Note Contact the applicable radio regulator to find out if registration of the PMP/PTP 450 Platform link is required. Conforming to the limits Ensure the link is configured to conform to local regulatory requirements by configuring the PMP 450/450i Series AP or PTP 450/450i Series BHM for the correct country. In the following situations, this does not prevent operation outside the regulations: • When using connectorized ODUs with external antennas, the regulations may require the maximum transmit power to be reduced. Available spectrum The available spectrum for operation depends on the regulatory band. When configured appropriately, the unit will only allow operation on those channels which are permitted by the regulations.
Chapter 3:  System planning Radio Frequency planning   Page 3-18 Certain regulations have allocated certain channels as unavailable for use: • FCC has allocated part of the 5.1 & 5.2 GHz • ETSI has allocated part of the 5.4 GHz band to weather radar. • UK and some other European countries have allocated part of the 5.8 GHz band to Road Transport and Traffic Telematics (RTTT) systems. The number and identity of channels barred in a given regulatory band is dependent on the channel bandwidth and channel raster selected. Analyzing the RF Environment An essential element in RF network planning is the analysis of spectrum usage and the strength of the signals that occupy the spectrum. Regardless of how these parameters are measured and log or chart the results (through the Spectrum Analyzer feature or by using a spectrum analyzer), ensure measurements are performed: • At various times of day. • On various days of the week. • Periodically into the future. As new RF neighbors move in or consumer devices proliferate in currently used spectrum, this keeps the user aware of the dynamic possibilities for interference within the network. Channel bandwidth Select the required channel bandwidth for the link. The selection depends upon the regulatory band selected.  The wider the channel bandwidth, the greater the capacity. As narrower channel bandwidths take up less spectrum, selecting a narrow channel bandwidth may be a better choice when operating in locations where the spectrum is very busy.  Both ends of the link must be configured to operate on the same channel bandwidth. Anticipating Reflection of Radio Waves In the signal path, any object that is larger than the wavelength of the signal can reflect the signal. Such an object can even be the surface of the earth or of a river, bay or lake. The wavelength of the signal is approximately • 2 inches (or 5 cm) for 5.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz signals. • 12 inches for 900 MHz signals A reflected signal can arrive at the antenna of the receiver later than the non-reflected signal arrives. These two or more signals cause the condition known as multipath. Multipath may increase or decrease the signal level, resulting in overall attenuation that may be higher or lower than that caused by the link distance. This is problematic at the margin of the link budget, where the standard operating margin (fade margin) may be compromised.
Chapter 3:  System planning Radio Frequency planning   Page 3-19 Obstructions in the Fresnel Zone The Fresnel (pronounced fre∙NEL) Zone is a three-dimensional volume around the line of sight of an antenna transmission. Objects that penetrate this area can cause the received strength of the transmitted signal to fade. Out-of-phase reflections and absorption of the signal result in signal cancellation. The foliage of trees and plants in the Fresnel Zone can cause signal loss. Seasonal density, moisture content of the foliage, and other factors such as wind may change the amount of loss. Plan to perform frequent and regular link tests if you must transmit through foliage. Planning for co-location The first step to avoid interference in wireless systems is to set all AP/BHMs to receive timing from a synchronization source (Cluster Management Module, or Universal Global Positioning System). This ensures that the modules are in sync and start transmitting at the same time each frame. The second step to avoid interference is to configure parameters on all AP/BHMs of the same frequency band in proximity such that they have compatible transmit/receive ratios (all stop transmitting each frame before any start receiving). This avoids the problem of one AP/BHM attempting to receive the signal from a distant SM/BHS while a nearby AP/BHM transmits, which could overpower that signal.  Note Refer to Frame Alignment Legacy Mode parameter of Configuration > Radio > Advance tab for legacy product settings (See Table 146 PMP 450i AP Radio attributes - 5 GHz  on page 7-135).  The following parameters on the AP/BHM determine the transmit/receive ratio: • Downlink Data percentage • Frame Period • Max Range • (reserved) Contention slots If OFDM (450 Platform Family, PMP/PTP 230) and FSK (PMP/PTP 1x0) APs/BHMs of the same frequency band and channel bandwidth are in proximity, or if you want BHMs set to different parameters then you must use the Frame Calculator to identify compatible settings for APs/BHMs. The co-location is also supported for 900 MHz PMP 450i Series APs (OFDM) and PMP 100 Series APs (FSK).  The Frame Calculator is available on the web management interface Tools > Frame Calculator. To use the Frame Calculator, type into the calculator various configurable parameter values for each proximal AP/BHM and then record the resulting AP/BHM Receive Start value. Next vary the Downlink Data percentage in each calculation and iterate until a calculated AP/BHM Receive Start for all co-located AP/BHMs where the transmit end does not come before the receive start.

However, this is only a recommendation. An installation may dictate a different pattern of channel assignments.
