This section describes important safety guidelines that must be observed by personnel
installing or operating PTP 600 equipment.
WARNING
To prevent loss of life or physical injury, observe the safety guidelines
in this section.
Power lines
Exercise extreme care when installing antennas near power lines.
Working at heights
Exercise extreme care when working at heights.
Grounding and protective earth
The Outdoor Unit (ODU) must be properly grounded to protect against lightning. In
the USA and Canada it is the user’s responsibility to install the equipment in
accordance with Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984 or
Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code. These codes describe correct installation
procedures for grounding the outdoor unit, mast, lead-in wire and discharge unit, size
of grounding conductors and connection requirements for grounding electrodes. Other
regulations may apply in different countries and therefore it is recommended that
installation of the outdoor unit be contracted to a professional installer.
Safety
phn-0896_009v003
ii UNDER DEVELOPMENT Feb 2010
Grounding PTP-SYNC
In order to meet the safety requirements for deployment in Australia and New Zealand
(AS/NZS 60950-1), the PTP Sync unit, if deployed, must be grounded to a Protective
Earth in accordance with Local Electrical Regulations.
PIDU Plus
It is recommended that the supplied Power Indoor Plus (PIDU Plus PTP 300/500/600
Series) is used to power the ODU. The use of other power sources may invalidate
safety approval and affect your warranty.
Powering down before servicing
Always power down and unplug the equipment before servicing.
Cable measuring card
A cable measuring card must NEVER be used at the ODU end connected to power
from the PIDU. It must only be used at the bottom of the mast with a multimeter. This
is because the PIDU voltage exceeds the limit allowed in some countries for safe
handling in wet conditions and therefore may create a safety hazard.
Non-Motorola power supply
Safety may be compromised if a different power supply is used than the one supplied
by Motorola as part of the system.
Alternative DC supplies
When using alternative DC supplies (via the PIDU Plus DC in terminals), such as
battery-backed DC power source, the supply MUST comply with the following
requirements:
• The voltage and polarity is correct and is applied to the correct terminals in the
PIDU Plus.
• The power source is rated as SELV.
• The power source is rated to supply at least 1A continuously.
Safety
phn-0896_009v003
Feb 2010 UNDER DEVELOPMENT iii
• The power source cannot provide more than the Energy Hazard Limit as defined
by IEC/EN/UL6090, Clause 2.5, Limited Power (The Energy Hazard Limit is
240VA).
Primary disconnect device
The main power supply is the primary disconnect device.
External cables
Safety may be compromised if outdoor rated cables are not used for connections that
will be exposed to the weather.
RF exposure near the antenna
Strong radio frequency (RF) fields will be present close to the antenna when the
transmitter is on. Always mute the transmitter before undertaking maintenance
activities in front of the antenna.
Minimum separation distances
Install the PTP 600 ODUs so as to provide and maintain the minimum separation
distances from all persons. The minimum separation distances for each frequency
variant are specified in Calculated distances and power compliance margins on page 4-
12.

Product function
The PTP 600 Series Bridge has been developed to provide Point-to-Point data
connectivity via a wireless Ethernet bridge operating at broadband data rates.
The PTP 600 Series Bridge offers true non-line-of-sight (NLOS) operation by using a
combination of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation and
Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) techniques. These technologies enable the PTP
600 Series Bridge to drive through foliage and around buildings to such an extent that
almost universal coverage can be expected at short range.
The PTP 600 Series Bridge has been designed to coexist with other users of the band
in an optimal fashion using a combination of Transmit Power Control (TPC), Spectrum
Management functionality and Antenna beam shape. In order to maintain link
availability, the product employs adaptive modulation techniques that dynamically
reduce the data rate in severe or adverse conditions.

User Guide: PTP 600 Series Typical deployment
phn-0896_009v003
Feb 2010 UNDER DEVELOPMENT 1-3
Typical deployment
The PTP 600 Series Bridge consists of an identical pair of units deployed one at each
end of the link. The radio link operates on a single frequency channel in each direction
using Time Division Duplex (TDD). One unit is deployed as a master and the other as a
slave. The master unit takes responsibility for controlling the link in both directions.
The PTP 600 Series Bridge is aimed at a wide range of applications. An example
application is an enterprise that has a requirement to connect together the Local Area
Network (LAN) of two or more buildings as shown in Figure 1-1.
Figure 1-1 Typical PTP 600 Series bridge deployment
Each end of the link consists of:
• Outdoor Unit (ODU): An integrated (or connectorized - see Chapter 8
Connectorized PTP 600 series) outdoor transceiver unit containing all the radio
and networking electronics.
• PIDU Plus: An indoor connection box containing a mains power supply, status
indicators and network connection port.
A pair of units is normally supplied pre-configured as a link.

Outdoor unit (ODU)
The ODU is a self-contained unit. It houses both radio and networking electronics. The
ODU for the PTP 600 Series should only be deployed using the supplied PIDU PTP
300/500/600 Series. Figure 1-2 shows an installation example of a PTP 600 Series ODU
with a Motorola lightning protection unit (PTP-LPU).

Mounting brackets
The ODU is supplied with a bracket for mounting it to a pole of 50mm (2”) to 75mm
(3”) in diameter. For more details on mounting, see Chapter 3
The bracket allows for adjustment in both azimuth and elevation. The bracket may be
split to allow the pole mount section of the bracket to be mounted to the pole first.
This allows the installer to take the weight of the unit and secure it, one handed, with
a single mounting bolt.
• The PIDU can either be desk or wall mounted. The preference is wall mounted,
with the cables dressed to a cable channel. Wall mounting is achieved by
screwing through the mounting lugs on either side of the unit. Remember to
leave space for access to the Recovery button. See Section PIDU Plus PTP
300/500/600 Series on page 1-9.
Network connection
The network connection to a PTP 600 Series is made via a 1000BaseT Ethernet
connection. Power is provided to the ODU over the 1000BaseT Ethernet connection
using a patented non-standard powering technique.
Previous releases of the PTP 600 Series platform used different powering and
connection arrangements. Users of equipment prior to “Mod Record 1” should refer to
the User Guide shipped with the original equipment. The “Mod Record” label can be
found on the back of the ODU as shown in Figure 1-3.

Alternatively, the network connection to a PTP 600 Series can be made using a
1000BaseSX Fiber Optic cable connected directly to the ODU. In this case power is
still provided over the 1000BaseT Ethernet connection. In the case of Fiber Optic cable
failure the PTP 600 Series will automatically fall back to the copper Ethernet
connection (provided the cable length <=100m [330 ft]). “PTP 600 Series Optical

PIDU Plus PTP 300/500/600 Series
The PIDU Plus PTP 300/500/600 Series (Figure 1-4) is used to generate the ODU
supply voltage from the mains supply (or from an external DC source) and inject this
supply voltage into the 1000BaseT Ethernet connection to the ODU. The PIDU is
connected to the ODU and network equipment using CAT5e cable with standard RJ45
connectors.
CAUTION
Care should be taken not to connect equipment other than an ODU or LPU
for the PTP 600 Series to a PIDU ODU port, as equipment damage may
occur. The PIDU Plus PTP 300/500/600 Series is not interchangeable with
the PIDU Plus PTP 400 Series.

Power and Ethernet LEDs
The front panel contains indicators showing the status of the power and Ethernet
connections:
• The Power indicator is illuminated when the PIDU is receiving mains power.
• The Ethernet indicator normally illuminates when the Ethernet link is working,

ODU, LAN and recovery
At the bottom of the PIDU is an entry point for the PIDU Plus to ODU cable, the
1000BaseT Ethernet network port and the Recovery switch.
Figure 1-5 PIDU Plus recovery switch location
The Recovery switch is used to recover the unit from configuration errors or software
image corruption. To put an ODU into recovery mode, the Recovery switch should be
pressed, then the power applied. The Recovery switch should be kept pressed for at
least 20 seconds after the power has been applied. Full instruction on the recovery
mode can be found in Using recovery mode on page 7-20.
A simple reboot can be performed by removing and re-applying the mains power to the
PIDU Plus.
DC In and Out
On the left hand side of the PIDU Plus, 48V DC input and output connections can be
found. These are used to power the PTP 600 Series from an external DC source or to
provide a level of power supply redundancy, as shown in Redundancy and alternative
powering configurations on page 1-11.

Redundancy and alternative powering configurations
The PTP 600 Series can be powered from an external DC source and can be provided
with power supply redundancy as follows:
• External DC supply only (Figure 1-8): This configuration is for use where there is
no mains supply.
• External DC supply and AC supply (Figure 1-9): This configuration provides
redundancy through the use of mains and DC supply.
• External DC supply and redundant AC Supply (Figure 1-10): This configuration
guards against mains failure and failure of the DC output of single PTP
300/500/600 PIDU Plus.
NOTE
The use of DC supplies of less than 55v will reduce the usable distance
between the PIDU Plus and ODU (Figure 1-7).

PTP and lightning protection
The PIDU Plus meets the low level static discharge specifications identified in
European EMC immunity compliance on page 4-9 but does not provide lightning or
surge suppression.
The amount of lightning protection is dependent on regulatory requirements and the
end user requirements. The standard ODU for the PTP 600 Series is fitted with surge
limiting circuits and other features to minimize the risk of damage due to nearby
lightning strikes. To be fully effective, these standard features require some additional
equipment to be configured as part of the system installation.
A separate Ethernet surge suppressor must be used and appropriately earthed.
Suitable surge suppressors can be sourced from your Motorola Point-to-Point
Distributor or Solutions Provider. See Lightning protection on page 2-18.
CAUTION
Motorola recommends the use of screened cable and Lightning Protection
units to protect connected equipment from nearby strikes.
The PTP 600 Series is not designed to survive direct lightning strikes. For
this reason the unit should not be installed as the highest point in a localized
area, unless specific precautions are taken. See Lightning protection on
page 2-18.

Wireless operation
Time division duplex
PTP 600 series links use a duplexing scheme known as Time Division Duplex (TDD).
TDD operates by only allowing one end of the link to transmit at any one time. This
allows both link directions to operate on the same radio frequency, although this is not
mandatory. This differs from Frequency Division Duplex (FDD), where each end can
transmit and receive simultaneously but this does require the two directions to operate
on different frequencies, thereby increasing the demand for spectrum. TDD operates
cyclically, with the transmissions alternating between the two ends. The cycle of
events is illustrated in Figure 1-12, with the sequence being described as follows:
1. Master transmits a burst to the Slave.
2. A delay occurs as the Master burst propagates over the air.
3. Slave receives the burst from the Master.
4. A delay as the Slave processes the burst.
5. The slave transmits a burst to the Master.
6. A delay as the slave burst propagates over the air.
7. Master receives the burst from the Slave.
8. A delay as the Master processes the burst.
9. Master transmits the next burst to the Slave.
A transmission from either end is called a burst. The length of the burst is called the
Burst Duration. One cycle is called a TDD Frame. The cycle period is called the Frame
Duration. To make the illustration more clear, the duration of the processing delays
and propagation delays have been exaggerated compared to the Burst Durations.

The Master PTP 600 automatically controls the structure of the TDD Frame, optimizing
Burst Duration and Frame Duration for either maximum capacity or minimum latency
depending on the setting of Link Mode Optimization and Link Symmetry.
When TDD synchronization is enabled (see TDD synchronization configuration on page
6-66
)
, the user must configure the TDD Frame which includes configuration of Burst
Duration and Frame Duration.
Link mode optimization
Link mode optimization allows the PTP 600 link to be optimized according to the type
of traffic that will be bridged. The link supports two modes, IP Traffic and TDM Traffic.
IP traffic
IP Traffic mode is optimized to provide the maximum possible link capacity. IP Traffic
mode is an appropriate choice where applications in the bridged networks provide
some measure of reliable transmission, and where very low latency is not critical. IP
mode supports both fixed and adaptive link symmetry (see Link symmetry on page 1-
21).

User Guide: PTP 600 Series Wireless operation
phn-0896_009v003
Feb 2010 UNDER DEVELOPMENT 1-21
TDM traffic
TDM Traffic mode is optimized to provide the lowest possible latency. TDM Traffic
mode additionally implements a more conservative approach to adaptive modulation,
leading to lower error rates in fading channels at the expense of slightly lower link
capacity. TDM Traffic mode is an appropriate choice for delay intolerant data without
reliable transmission (for example voice over IP data). TDM mode is selected
automatically when Telecom interfaces are enabled.
Link symmetry
The PTP 600 series provides four configuration options for apportioning the available
capacity between the two link directions.
• Symmetric: The Master and Slave have equal capacity. The PTP 600 series
achieves this by allocating an equal Burst Duration for the Master and the Slave.
• 2:1 The capacity in the direction Master to Slave is twice that of the direction
Slave to Master. The PTP 600 series achieves this by setting the Burst Duration
of the Master to twice that of the Slave. Note that this mode is not available
when TDD synchronization is enabled (see section
TDD Synchronization)
• 1:2 The capacity in the direction Slave to Master is twice that of the direction
Master to Slave. The PTP 600 series achieves this by setting the Burst Duration
of the Slave to twice that of the Master.
NOTE
This mode is not available when TDD synchronization is enabled (see Time
division duplex synchronization on page 1-25).
• Adaptive: The capacity allocated to a given link direction is dependant on the
offered level of network traffic in both link directions. If the level of offered
traffic in both directions is equally high or equally low, the PTP 600 will allocate
equal capacity to both directions. If however the offered level of traffic is greater
in one direction, it is allocated a greater proportion of the overall link capacity.
The PTP 600 series achieves this by increasing (or decreasing) the duration of
the Transmit Burst in a given link direction as the offered level of network traffic
increases (or decreases) in this same direction. This is done independently for
the two directions.
NOTE
This mode is not available in the following configurations :

o In regions where radar avoidance is operational (see Radar avoidance on
page 1-24).
OFDM and channel bandwidth
The PTP 600 series 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 all 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 five values: 5
MHz, 10 MHz, 15 MHz, 20 MHz and 30 MHz. Higher bandwidths provide greater link
capacity at the expense of using more spectrum. 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 regions or all frequency
variants.
Adaptive modulation
The PTP 600 series can transport data over the wireless link using a number of
different modulation modes ranging from 256QAM 0.81 to BPSK 0.63. For a given
channel bandwidth and TDD frame structure, each modulation mode transports data at
a fixed rate. Also, the receiver requires a given signal to noise ratio in order to
successfully demodulate a given modulation mode. Although the more complex
modulations such as 256QAM 0.81 will transport data at a much higher rate than the
less complex modulation modes, the receiver requires a much higher signal to noise
ratio.

phn-0896_009v003
Feb 2010 UNDER DEVELOPMENT 1-23
The PTP 600 series provides an adaptive modulation scheme where the receiver
constantly monitors the quality of the received signal and notifies the far end of the
link of the optimum modulation mode with which to transmit. In this way, optimum
capacity is achieved at all times. This is one of a number of features which allows the
PTP 600 to operate in challenging none line of sight radio channels.
Specifications of capacity for all channel bandwidths, modulation modes and
configurations are provided in Data throughput capacity on page 4-102.
Specifications of receive level thresholds for each modulation mode (assuming no
interference) are provided in the various system threshold tables in Chapter 4
Reference information.
NOTE
Link Planner should be used to estimate the performance of a given link.
Link Planner includes an estimate of mean data rate, the data rate provided
by each modulation and the percentage of time spent in each modulation
mode.
MIMO
The PTP 600 transmits two signals on the same radio frequency, one which is
vertically polarized, the other which is horizontally polarized. The PTP 600 also has the
ability to adapt between two modes of operation:
• Dual Payload: When the radio channel conditions allow, the PTP 600 will
transmit two different and parallel data streams, one on the vertical channel and
one on the horizontal channel. This doubles the capacity of the PTP 600.
• Single Payload: As the radio channel becomes more challenging, the PTP 600
has the ability to detect this and switch to a mode which transmits the same data
stream on both vertical and horizontal channels. This provides polar diversity and
is another key feature which allows the PTP 600 to operate in challenging none
line of sight radio channels.
The two modes have been implemented by the introduction of two sets of modulation
modes. The lower order modulations (BPSK 0.63 up to QPSK 0.87) are only available
as single payload modes. Each of the higher order modulations (16QAM 0.63 to
256QAM 0.81) are available in single payload mode and dual payload mode. The
switching between modes is automatically controlled by the adaptive modulation
feature described in Adaptive modulation on page 1-22.

Intelligent dynamic frequency selection
The PTP 600 series uses an interference mitigation technique known as Intelligent
Dynamic Frequency Selection (i-DFS). Both the PTP 600 Master and PTP 600 Slave
continually monitor for interference on all channels and then select the best frequency
of operation. This is a dynamic process where the PTP 600 can continually move
channels in response to changes in interference. Two modes of operation are available,
one where the two link directions are forced to select the same frequency. This is
determined by the Master. The second mode is where the frequency of operation can
be determined independently for each direction. This is a key feature which enables
the PTP 600 to operate successfully in areas where other radio equipments are
operating within the same band.
NOTE
i-DFS is not available in the 2.5 GHz band.
Radar avoidance
Similar to current description except that we need some words to cover the option of
hopping channels in response to interference other than Radar.
Radar avoidance requires that equipment used in the region:
• Detects interference from other systems and avoids co-channel operation with
these systems, notably radar systems.
• Provides a uniform loading of the spectrum across all devices, that is, fixed
frequency operation is not allowed.
To address the primary aims, the spectrum management algorithm implements a
radar detection function which looks for impulsive interference on the operating
channel only. If impulsive interference is detected, spectrum management will mark
the current operating channel as having detected radar (unavailable channel) and
initiate a channel hop to an available channel. The previous operating channel will
remain in the unavailable state for thirty minutes after the last impulsive interference
pulse was detected. After the thirty minutes have expired the channel will be returned
to the usable channel pool.
The equipment can only transmit on available channels, of which there are none at
initial power up. The radar detection algorithm will always scan a usable channel for
60 seconds for radar interference before making the channel an available channel.
This compulsory channel scan will mean that there is a 60 seconds service outage
every time radar is detected and that the installation time is extended by 60 seconds
even if there is found to be no radar on the channel.

User Guide: PTP 600 Series Wireless operation
phn-0896_009v003
Feb 2010 UNDER DEVELOPMENT 1-25
NOTE
On system installation or start-up, this extends the initial scan time of the
Master unit by 60 seconds. To address the requirement to provide aggregate
uniform loading of the spectrum across all devices, the channel selection
algorithm will choose a channel at random from a list of useable channels.
The channel selection algorithm is initiated at link initialization and when
radar interference is detected.
Time division duplex synchronization
The performance of any radio system is dependent on the level of electromagnetic
interference to which it is subjected. This is also true for the PTP 600 ODUs. In an
ideal environment, any individual ODU will only receive transmissions from the paired
ODU at the other end of the link. However, when multiple PTP 600 links are installed,
an ODU may also be subjected to interference from the transmission of an ODU which
is part of another link. The levels of interference become very significant when ODUs
are installed in close proximity, for example on the same mast. In this case, one ODU
may be transmitting a burst at the same time as an ODU sharing the same mast is
receiving a burst from its paired ODU. This is shown in Figure 1-13, where ODU A is
seen to be interfering with ODU C and vice versa. This can adversely affect link
performance.
Figure 1-13 Interference between two ODUs on the same mast
Wireless operation Chapter 1 Product description
phn-0896_009v003
1-26 UNDER DEVELOPMENT Feb 2010
This type of interference may be eliminated if the TDD frames of the two links are
synchronized such that ODUs which share a mast are configured to always transmit
together and always receive together. An ODU will never be transmitting when an
ODU sharing the same mast is receiving. Similarly, the paired ODUs installed at the
remote ends from the common mast will also transmit together and receive together
but in the opposite half (or opposite phase) of the TDD cycle. Synchronization can be
extended beyond the single mast case where the TDD frames of all links in a network
can be synchronized. The benefit is that interference between any pair of units in the
network will be eliminated if they are configured to transmit in the same half of the
TDD frame, that is, with the same phase. In summary, TDD synchronization eliminates
half of the network interference mechanisms.
Network timing reference
For links to be synchronized, they must have access to a common network timing
reference. This is achieved by connecting each Master PTP 600 to a synchronization
unit. One synchronization unit is required for each Master. Two alternative
synchronization units are available:
• MemoryLink UltraSync GPS receiver: This unit contains a GPS receiver which
produces the common network timing reference. For more information, refer to
UltraSync on page 1-27.
• PTP-SYNC: This option is the preferred solution. For simple networks centred on
a single common mast, the common network timing reference may be derived
from one of the PTP 600 ODUs installed at the common mast. The timing signal is
then daisy chained to the other collocated ODUs. For larger distributed
networks, sites which consist of one or more Master PTP 600 units will require a
single GPS receiver. For more information, refer to PTP-SYNC on page 1-27.
Configuring the TDD frame
The Master PTP 600 automatically configures the TDD frame by optimizing parameters
such as the Frame Duration and Burst Duration (see Time division duplex
synchronization on page 1-25). When TDD synchronization is enabled, this is no longer
the case and it is up to the user to configure the frame parameters appropriately. This
should be done with the aid of LINKPlanner. Please refer to the
Link Planner User
Guide
for guidance on configuring TDD synchronization.
User Guide: PTP 600 Series Wireless operation
phn-0896_009v003
Feb 2010 UNDER DEVELOPMENT 1-27
Performance considerations when enabling TDD
synchronization
In certain configurations, the TDD frame can adapt to allocate more of the frame to a
particular link direction. This is called adaptive TDD. It works by the PTP 600
automatically and independently adjusting the Burst Duration in each link direction as
the level of offered traffic in each direction changes. This was discussed in more detail
in Link symmetry on page 1-21
.
As TDD synchronization requires TDD frames to be
constantly aligned in time, a varying TDD frame is not an option when TDD
synchronization is enabled. Only the symmetric mode is available when TDD
synchronization is enabled.
When TDD synchronization is enabled, the capacity of an “ideal” link is generally a few
percent lower than the case where TDD synchronization is disabled. The term “ideal”
is important as this is the capacity assuming that there is no interference. The benefit
of eliminating half of the network interference mechanisms generally outweighs this
small reduction in capacity. The exact reduction can be examined using Link Planner.
UltraSync
PTP 600 application software supports the synchronization method based on the
MemoryLink UltraSync GPS receiver. An additional control in the web-based
management interface allows a user to configure the ODU for operation with
UltraSync or for PTP-SYNC. If the installation is converted from UltraSync to PTP-
SYNC, the UltraSync unit must be disconnected.
PTP-SYNC
TDD synchronization using PTP-SYNC is an improved method for synchronizing TDD
transmission in a network of PTP 600 links. This method is based on the PTP-SYNC
hardware platform connected in-line between the PIDU and the master ODU. Figure
1-14 shows a single PTP-SYNC within a system. In this example, the chosen system
configuration requires an LPU between the GPS receiver module and the PTP-SYNC.

Figure 1-14 PTP-SYNC application
The PTP-SYNC is a compact indoor unit mounted on a wall or a shelf or (using an
optional rack mounting adaptor) in a standard 19 inch rack. The PTP-SYNC is powered
using standard PTP 600 power-over-Ethernet from the PIDU. One PTP-SYNC unit is
required for each synchronized link.
How PTP-SYNC works
TDD synchronization using the PTP-SYNC operates as follows:
1. The timing reference generates a precise 1 Hz signal that is synchronised in
both frequency and phase with a network-wide master,
2. The PTP 600 ODU generates a timing signal locked to its TDD frame timing,

3. The PTP-SYNC unit measures the difference between the TDD frame timing and
the 1 Hz time reference,
4. The PTP-SYNC signals this time difference to the ODU,
5. The ODU uses the measured time difference as an input to a control loop that
synchronizes TDD timing with the timing reference and thus indirectly with the
network-wide master.

PTP-SYNC requires a 1 Hz timing reference signal. One timing reference signal is
required at each site that contains PTP-SYNC units.
NOTE
One timing reference signal can be used to synchronize up to ten PTP-SYNC.
If more than ten PTP-SYNC must be synchronized on a single site, then
additional timing reference signals are required.
The timing source may be one of the following:
• A separate timing source (typically a GPS receiver) connected directly to the PTP-
SYNC, or through another PTP-SYNC in a daisy-chain arrangement (as shown in
Figure 1-14).
• In networks where all master ODUs are collocated (for example a network
consisting of a single hub), it is possible to use PTP-SYNCs in the standard
scheme but omitting the external timing source. In this case, one ODU must be
configured as the local timing master.
Advantages of PTP-SYNC over UltraSync
PTP-SYNC has several advantages over the UltraSync solution:
• PTP-SYNC does not require individual GPS receivers located close to the ODUs,
and this reduces the complexity and the cost of the installation on the mast,
• The GPS receiver can be located anywhere with a clear view of the sky, offering
additional flexibility in the installation,
• The PTP-SYNC solution is compatible with standard 1 Hz interfaces, allowing an
operator to take advantage of alternative timing references that may be already
present at the site,

• The recommended GPS receiver continues to provide accurate timing even after
the number of received satellite has dropped down to one, leading to significantly
better availability of the reference signal,
• The PTP-SYNC offers the possibility of creating synchronised single-hub networks
where no GPS receiver is required.

Ethernet bridging
Ethernet frames
The PTP 600 series provides wireless Ethernet bridging between two fixed locations.
To be more precise, it forwards Ethernet frames as a two-port transparent
heterogeneous encapsulation bridge, meaning that each bridge forwards frames
between two dissimilar interfaces (Ethernet and wireless), encapsulating Ethernet
MAC frames within a PTP MAC frames for transmission at the wireless interface. A
link consisting of a pair of back to back bridges appears to the data network to be very
similar to a standard two-port Ethernet bridge.
The PTP 600 series provides eight traffic classes, classifying Ethernet frames into one
of eight prioritized queues based on inspection of the user priority field (802.1p) in a
customer (IEEE802.1Q) VLAN tag or provider (IEEE802.1ad) VLAN tag. Untagged
frames receive a default priority. The scheduling method is strict priority. The bridge
does not implement any VLAN functions for bridged frames apart from inspection of
the priority field, and consequently the bridge forwards tagged and untagged Ethernet
frames regardless of VLAN ID and without modification of any protocol header field.
The PTP 600 series supports a maximum Ethernet frame size of 2000 bytes for bridged
traffic.

Telecoms circuits Chapter 1 Product description
phn-0896_009v003
1-36 UNDER DEVELOPMENT Feb 2010
Telecoms circuits
The PTP 600 link provides native support for one or two E1 links, or one or two T1
links. The link relays unstructured E1 or T1 data and provides accurate timing
transfer.
Lowest telecoms modulation mode
In narrow channel bandwidth and lower modulation modes, the link may have
insufficient capacity to relay the E1/T1 payload; in this case, the wireless link
continues to carries timing information in order to maintain accurate clock
synchronization. The relay of telecoms data resumes automatically when the link
reaches a suitable modulation mode.
Links that are able to operate consistently in a high modulation mode can take
advantage of lower link latency. This option is configured by setting the "Lowest
Telecoms Modulation Mode" during installation. Appropriate settings for this control
may be determined by using the LINKPlanner tool. The reduction in latency is
achieved by disabling the relay of telecoms data in lower modulation modes, and this
necessarily results in somewhat lower availability for the telecoms circuit. The loss of
availability can be estimated using the LINKPlanner.
The unit will override the user setting of Lowest Telecoms Modulation Mode if the
selected mode has insufficient capacity to carry the telecoms data, or if the mode
demands very high latency and requires more buffering than the link can provide.
When the effective mode differs for Single and Dual Payload operation two modes will
be displayed: "Lowest Dual Payload Modulation Mode" and "Lowest Single Payload
Modulation Mode".
Fixed frequency operation
In the PTP 600 link, data errors may occur during channel changes on an operational
link. It may be appropriate to minimize channel-change-related errors in a link
carrying Telecoms traffic by preventing channel changes initiated by i-DFS. This can
be achieved by barring all channels except one in the Spectrum Management page, or
alternately by selecting Fixed Frequency mode. These steps unavoidably disable
interference avoidance mechanisms, and should not be taken if the risk of errors due
to interference is more severe than the risk due to channel changes.
Fixed frequency operation is not available when radar detection requirements exist in
the frequency band.

System management
Management agent
PTP 600 equipment is managed through an embedded management agent.
Management workstations, network management systems or PCs can be connected to
this agent using standard management protocols multiplexed with user traffic at the
Ethernet data port.
Web interface
The PTP 600 management agent contains a web server. The management agent
provides comprehensive web-based fault, configuration, performance and security
management functions. Web-based management offers a convenient way to manage
the PTP 600 equipment from a locally connected computer or from a network
management workstation connected through a management network, without
requiring any special management software. The web-based interface is the only
interface supported for installation of PTP 600, and for the majority of PTP 600
configuration management tasks.
There are two servers, HTTP and HTTPS which, depending on prevailing licence key,
can be independently controlled
Management tasks using the web-based management interface are described in detail
in Chapter 6: Operation.
Installation wizard
The web-based interface includes an Installation wizard. This feature simplifies the
process of entering initial configuration details and arming the PTP 600 ready for
installation.
Configuration pages
The web-based interface includes a number of configuration pages. These pages allow
for modification of the system configuration of an installed link. Configuration pages
include controls relating to the management agent IP interface, the Ethernet
interfaces, quality of service at the wireless interface, security passwords and AES
keys.
User Guide: PTP 600 Series System management
phn-0896_009v003
Feb 2010 UNDER DEVELOPMENT 1-39
Transport layer security
The PTP 600 management agent allows HTTP traffic at the web interface to be
encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). PTP 600 uses AES to encrypt HTTP
traffic. Operation of HTTPS/TLS is enabled by purchase of an optional AES upgrade as
described in Upgrading the PTP 600 on page 6-77.
TLS operation requires installation of a key of keys, a private key, a related public key
certificate, and an entropy value. The subject of the public key certificate will be the IP
address or hostname of the ODU. If the subject of the certificate is the hostname, then
the network must include a DNS service capable of resolving the hostname to the IP
address of the ODU.
The private key and public key certificate must be installed as standard DER files.
The PTP 600 has no default public key certificate, and Motorola is not able to generate
public key certificates for specific network applications.
Security wizard
The web-based interface includes a Security Wizard. The Security Wizard is used to
enter configuration for TLS, including the key or keys, private key, public key
certificate and entropy value.
The Security Wizard additionally allows HTTP and Telnet interfaces to be disabled, and
encryption keys to be entered or updated for AES encryption at the wireless interface.
The Security Wizard is disabled until AES encryption or FIPS are enabled by license
key.
Management tasks using the Security Wizard are described in Configuring HTTPS/TLS
using the Security Wizard on page 6-98.
Identity-based user accounts
The PTP 600 web-based interface provides two methods of authenticating users:
• Role-based user authentication allows the user, on entry of a valid password, to
access all configuration capabilities and controls. This is the default method.
• Identify-based user authentication supports up to 10 users with individual
usernames and passwords.
When identity-based user accounts are enabled, a security officer can define from one
to ten user accounts, each of which may have one of the three possible roles:
• Security officer.
• System administrator.
System management Chapter 1 Product description
phn-0896_009v003
1-40 UNDER DEVELOPMENT Feb 2010
• Read only.
Identity-based user accounts are enabled in the User Accounts page of the web-based
interface.
Best-practice passwords
PTP 600 allows passwords to be checked for compliance with password best practice.
When checking is enabled, passwords must comply with the following:
• Passwords are case sensitive
• Passwords must contain at least:
o One uppercase letter.
o One lowercase letter.
o One numeral.
o One special character.
• When the password is changed, the new password must differ from the previous
password by at least four characters.
Special characters are any of the following:
! \ " # $ % & ' ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = > ? @ [ \ ] ^ _ ` { | } ~
Best-practice passwords can be checked in role-based and identity-based
authentication methods.
SNMP
The management agent supports fault and performance management by means of an
SNMP interface. The management agent is compatible with SNMP v1, SNMP v2c, and
SNMPv3 using the following MIBs:
• PTP 600 enterprise MIB
• The system group and the interfaces group from MIB-II, RFC-1213
• The interfaces group and the ifXTable from RFC-2233
• The dot1dBase group and the dot1dBasePortTable group from the Bridge MIB,
RFC-1493.

Enabling SNMP
The SNMP interface must be enabled for use by configuring the following attributes in
the Remote Management page:
• SNMP State (default disabled)
• SNMP Version (default SNMPv1/2c)
• SNMP Port Number (default 161)
When the SNMP Version is set to SNMPv1/2c the interface must be additionally
configured by entering the following attributes:
• SNMP Trap IP Address
• SNMP Trap Port Number
• SNMP Community String
SNMPv3 security
Secure configuration
PTP 600 provides a default SNMPv3 configuration. This initial configuration is not
secure, but it provides the means by which a secure configuration can be created.
The secure configuration should be configured in a controlled environment to prevent
disclosure of the initial security keys necessarily sent as plaintext, or sent as encrypted
data using a predictable key. The initial security information should not be configured
over an insecure network.
User-based security model
PTP 600 supports the SNMPv3 user-based security model (USM) for up to 10 users,
with MD5, SHA-1, DES and (subject to the license key) AES protocols in the following
combinations:
• No authentication, no privacy,
• MD5, no privacy,
• SHA-1, no privacy,
• MD5, DES,

phn-0896_009v003
Feb 2010 UNDER DEVELOPMENT 1-43
• SHA-1, DES,
• MD5, AES,
• SHA-1, AES.
Use of AES privacy requires the PTP 600 AES upgrade described in AES license on
page 1-48. The ODU will allow the creation of users configured with AES privacy
protocol, regardless of license key. However, a user configured to use AES privacy
protocol will not be able to transmit and receive encrypted messages unless the
license key enables the AES capability.
Default configuration
The default configuration is restored when all PTP 600 configuration data is erased
using Erase configuration on page 7-25, or when all SNMP users are deleted using the
SNMP management interface.
Default configuration for the usmUserTable table is based on one initial user and four
template users as listed in Table 1-8.

PTP 600 creates the initial user and template users with localised authentication and
privacy keys derived from the passphrase string “123456789”. Authentication keys for
the templates users are fixed and cannot be changed.
Any or all of the template users can be deleted.
The default user initial will have read/write access to the whole of the MIB. This is
described in further detail in View-based access control model on page 1-44 below.
The template users have no access to the MIB in the default configuration.
User initial will normally be used to create one or more additional users with secret
authentication and privacy keys, and with appropriate access to the whole of the MIB
or to particular views of the MIB according to the operator’s security policy. New
users must be created by cloning template users. The user initial may then be
deleted to prevent access using the well-known user name and keys. Alternatively, the
keys associated with initial may be set to some new secret value.
View-based access control model
PTP 600 supports the SNMPv3 view-based access control model (VACM) with a single
context. The context name is the empty string. The context table is read-only, and
cannot be modified by users. The default user initial is created with a view of the
entire MIB, requiring authentication for SET operations. There is no access for
template users.
NOTE
VACM grants access for requests sent with more than the configured
security level.
The default user initial is assigned to VACM group initial in the
vacmSecurityToGroupTable table. The template users are not assigned to a group.
PTP 600 creates default view trees and access as shown in Table 1-9 and Table 1-10.

Access to critical security parameters
The SNMPv3 management interface does not provide access to critical security
parameters (CSPs) of PTP 600. It is not possible to read or modify AES keys used to
encrypt data transmitted at the wireless interface. Neither is it possible to read or
modify security parameters associated with TLS protection of the web-based
management interface. The recovery mode option to zeroise CSPs does not affect
SNMPv3 configuration.
Downgrade of the license key
A possible lockout condition exists if a user downgrades the PTP 600 license key so as
to disable the AES capability when SNMPv3 users are configured with AES privacy
and VACM is configured to require privacy. In this case, recovery is by either (a)
restoring the correct license key, or (b) using recovery mode to erase all configuration
and entering new configuration.
Option (b) will cause default users and access configuration to be re-created.
CAUTION
Care should be taken to avoid exposing the ODU to an insecure network
when configuration data is erased.

AES license
PTP 600 provides optional encryption using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
Encryption is not available in the standard PTP 600 system.
AES upgrades are supplied as an access key purchased from your Motorola Point-to-
Point distributor or solutions provider. The access key authorizes AES operation for
one ODU. Two access keys are needed to operate AES on a link. The upgrade is
applied by entering an access key together with the MAC address of the target ODU
into the PTP License Key Generator web page, which may be accessed from
http://www.motorola.com/ptp/support.
The License Key Generator creates a new license key that is delivered by email. The
license key must be installed on the ODU. When the license key is installed, the ODU
must be rebooted before AES can be enabled. Once applied, the AES upgrade is bound
to a single ODU and is not transferrable.
AES encryption may be used in the following ways:
• At the wireless port to encrypt data transmitted over the wireless link.
• At the SNMP management interface in the SNMPv3 mode.
• At the HTTP management interface in the TLS mode.
Two levels of encryption are available to purchase:
• 128-bit: This allows an operator to encrypt all traffic sent over the wireless link
using 128-bit encryption.
• 256-bit: This allows an operator to encrypt traffic using either 128-bit or 256-bit
encryption.
Encryption must be configured with the same size key in each direction.
AES encryption at the PTP 600 wireless port is based on pre-shared keys. An identical
key must be entered at each end of the link.
AES encryption for SNMPv3 or TLS is always based on a 128-bit key, regardless of
level enabled in the PTP 600 license key.
For more information, see:
• Upgrading the PTP 600 on page 6-77.

Software upgrade
The management agent supports application software upgrade using either the web-
based interface or the SNMP interface.
PTP 600 software images are digitally signed, and the ODU will accept only images
that contain a valid Motorola PTP digital signature. The ODU always requires a reboot
to complete a software upgrade.
NOTE
Obtain the application software and this user guide from the support website
BEFORE warranty expires.
NOTE
ODU software version must be the same at both ends of the link. Limited
operation may sometimes be possible with dissimilar software version, but
such operation is not supported by Motorola.
The management process for software upgrade is described in detail in Upgrading the
PTP 600 on page 6-77.
Software can be downgraded using Recovery mode as described in Recovery mode on
page 1-50.
Recovery mode
The PTP 600 recovery mode provides a means to recover from serious configuration
errors including lost or forgotten passwords and unknown IP addresses.
Recovery mode also allows new main application software to be loaded even when the
integrity of the existing main application software image has been compromised. The
most likely cause of an integrity problem with the installed main application software
is where the power supply has been interrupted during an earlier software upgrade.
The ODU operates in recovery mode in the following circumstances:
• When a checksum error occurs for the main application software image.
• When the PIDU recovery button is pressed at the same time as the ODU is
rebooted or power cycled.

Recovery mode options
Options in recovery mode are as follows:
• Load new main application software.
• Reset all configuration data to factory default. This option resets IP and Ethernet
configuration, and erases (zeroizes) critical security parameters.
• Reset IP and Ethernet configuration to factory default.
• Erase (zeroize) critical security parameters.
• Reboot with existing software and configuration.
NOTE
If recovery mode has been entered either because of a checksum error, by
default the ODU will reboot with existing software and configuration
following a 30 second wait.
The recovery software image is installed during manufacture of the ODU and cannot
be upgraded by operators.

FIPS 140-2
PTP 600 provides an optional secure cryptographic mode of operation validated to
Level 2 of Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 140-2.
PTP 600 operates in the FIPS mode when all of the following are true:
• The ODU software image is validated for FIPS operation.
• The ODU license key has AES encryption enabled.
• The ODU license key has FIPS operation enabled.
• The hardware security of the ODU is compatible with operation in the FIPS 140-2

phn-0896_009v003
2-2 UNDER DEVELOPMENT Feb 2010
Spectrum planning
The PTP 600 may use one of four alternative methods of spectrum planning. The
choice of methods depends upon whether or not the region mandates radar detection.
Regions without mandatory radar detection
In regions that do not mandate DFS (Radar Detection), the frequencies may be
configured symmetrically or asymmetrically (different transmit and receive
frequencies). The Spectrum Management Control options are:
• Intelligent Dynamic Frequency Selection (i-DFS): This method continually
monitors the spectrum looking for the channel with the lowest level of on channel
and co-channel interference. Statistical techniques are used to select the most
appropriate transmit and receive channels. The i-DFS mode can be influenced in
its channel decision process by selectively barring channels from use.
• Fixed Frequency: This method allows the installer to allocate fixed transmit and
receive frequencies on the units.
Regions with mandatory radar detection
In regions that mandate DFS (Radar Detection), the frequency must always be
symmetrical (transmit and receive on the same frequency). The Spectrum
Management Control options are:
• Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS): This method detects interference from
other systems and avoids co-channel operation with these systems, notably radar
systems.
• DFS with i-DFS: This method is similar to i-DFS. It differs in the event that
several alternative channels are equally the best within the 1 dB measurement
resolution. In i-DFS, the ODU selects the lowest channel number out of the set
of best channels. In DFS with i-DFS, the ODU monitors the interference level on
all the available channels and then randomly selects one channel from all that
are within 3dB of the lowest interference channel.

phn-0896_009v003
Feb 2010 UNDER DEVELOPMENT 2-3
Licenses and region codes
The PTP 600 Series uses a system of region codes to control the operation of the radio
link. The user must ensure the product is configured to conform to local regulatory
requirements by installing a License Key for the correct region code.
CAUTION
For the connectorized model, when using external antennas of higher gain
than the appropriate integrated antenna, the regulations may require the
maximum Tx power to be reduced. To ensure that regulatory requirements
are met for connectorized installations, refer to Regulatory issues with
connectorized units on page 8-10.
The license and region codes for each frequency variant are listed in:
• PTP 25600 licenses and region codes on page 4-17

Radar avoidance and bandwidth operation
Channel barring
Where regulatory restrictions apply to certain channels these channels are barred.
RTTT avoidance may be necessary in all channel bandwidths. The number of channels
barred is dependant on the channel raster selected. For example see the effect of the
UK RTTT channel restrictions in the 30 MHz bandwidth (Figure 2-1), where blocks in
red indicate channels that are barred. Barred channels are indicated by a “No Entry”
symbol displayed on the “Spectrum Management” web page, see Spectrum
management control with radar avoidance on page 6-34.
Figure 2-1 RTTT channel avoidance example (5.8 GHz UK)
NOTE
Radar avoidance requirements in the 5.4GHz band in the EU is detailed in
specification EN 301-893 version V1.4.1 (from July 2010, this becomes
V1.5.1) plus additional requirements shown in the OJ of the EC and in the US
in the specification FCC part 15.407. Radar avoidance at 5.8 GHz is
applicable to EU operation and the requirements are currently as defined in
EN 302 502.

Variable channel bandwidth operation
The selection of Channel Bandwidth depends upon the PTP frequency variant:
• For PTP 25600, PTP 45600, PTP 54600, PTP 58600 and PTP 59600, Channel
Bandwidth may be 30, 15, 10 or 5 MHz.
• For PTP 48600 and PTP 49600, Channel Bandwidth may be 20, 10 or 5 MHz.
The 30MHz channel widths are available where allowed by local regulations and
subject to some restrictions on channel choice.
Lite versions of the PTP 600 products do not support a Channel Bandwidths of 5 MHz.
Configuration of the variable bandwidth operation must be symmetric, that is, the
Transmit and receive channels must use identical Channel Bandwidths.
For details of the spectrum settings that are available to each frequency variant, refer

Site planning
Site selection criteria
The following are guidelines for selecting the installation location of the ODU and
PIDU Plus for a PTP 600 Series.
ODU site selection
When selecting a site for the ODU the following should be taken into consideration:
• It should not be possible for people to stand or walk in front of the antenna
• Height and location to achieve the best radio path
• Height in relation to other objects with regard to lightning strikes
• Aesthetics and planning permission issues
• Distance from the ODU and connected Network equipment (Maximum cable run
from the ODU to the connected equipment is 100m [330 ft])
• Distance from the PIDU Plus to the ODU (Maximum cable run from the PIDU Plus
to the ODU is 300m [990 ft] when using the Fiber interface)
• If using the GPS Sync Unit, ensure that it is exposed to an unobstructed path to
the sky. Please refer to the “GPS Synchronization Unit Kit” User Manual
delivered with the kit.
• The effect of strong winds on the installation – see Section Wind loading on page
2-7.
PIDU Plus site selection
When selecting a site for the PIDU Plus the following should be taken into
consideration:
• Availability of a mains electricity supply
• Accessibility for viewing status indicators and pressing Recovery switch.

Wind loading
Antennas and electronic equipment mounted on towers or pole mounted on buildings
will subject the mounting structure to significant lateral forces when there is
appreciable wind. Antennas are normally specified by the amount of force (in pounds)
for specific wind strengths.
The magnitude of the force depends on both the wind strength and size of the antenna.
Calculation of lateral force
The PTP 600 Series with or without the integral antenna is essentially a flat structure
and so the magnitude of the lateral force can be estimated from:
Force (in pounds) = 0.0042 . A . v2
Where A is the surface area in square feet and v is the wind speed in miles per hour.
The lateral force produced by a single 600 Series (integrated or connectorized model)
at different wind speeds is shown in Table 2-1 and Table 2-2.

NOTE
When the connectorized version of 600 Series is used with external
antennas, the figures from the antenna manufacturer for lateral force should
be included to calculate to total loading on the mounting structure.
Capabilities of the PTP 600 Series
The structure and mounting brackets of the PTP Series systems are capable of
withstanding wind speeds up to 151mph (242 kph). The installer should ensure that
the structure to which the PTP 600 Series is fixed to is also capable of withstanding
the prevalent wind speeds and loads.
Wind speed statistics
Installers are recommended to contact the national meteorological office for the
country concerned to identify the likely wind speeds prevalent at the proposed
location. This will enable the installer to estimate the total wind loading on the
support structures. Sources of information:

Link planning
Range and obstacles
The PTP 600 Series are designed to operate in Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) and Line-of-
Sight (LoS) environments.
The PTP 600 Series will operate at ranges from 100 m (330 ft) to 200 km (124 miles),
within 3 modes: 0-40km (0-25 miles), 0-100km (0-62 miles) and 0-200km (0-124 miles).
Operation of the system will depend on obstacles in the path between the units.
Operation at 40 km (25 miles) or above will require a near line-of-sight path. Operation
at 100m (330 ft) could be achieved with one unit totally obscured from the other unit,
but with the penalty of transmitting at higher power in a non-optimal direction,
thereby increasing interference in the band.
A survey must be performed to identify all the obstructions (such as trees or buildings)
in the path and to assess the risk of interference. This information is important if you
are to achieve an accurate link feasibility assessment.
PTP LINKPlanner
Link planning enables a link of known quality to be installed. This involves the
acquisition of path profile data (using Motorola’s free LINKPlanner utility). The
LINKPlanner predicts data rates and reliability over the path. It allows the user to try
different antenna heights and RF power settings. When the link is installed, the mean
path loss can be checked to confirm that the predicted data rate and link reliability is
achievable. Motorola LINKPlanner is available to download from
http://www.motorola.com/ptp/support.

Path loss considerations Chapter 2 Planning considerations
phn-0896_009v003
2-10 UNDER DEVELOPMENT Feb 2010
Path loss considerations
Path loss is the amount of attenuation the radio signal undergoes between the two
ends of the link.
Calculating path loss
The path loss is the sum of the attenuation of the path if there were no obstacles in the
way (Free Space Path Loss), the attenuation caused by obstacles (Excess Path Loss)
and a margin to allow for possible fading of the radio signal (Fade Margin). The
calculation of Equation 2-1 needs to be performed to judge whether a particular link
can be installed.

Adaptive modulation
Adaptive modulation ensures that the highest throughput that can be achieved
instantaneously will be obtained, taking account of propagation and interference.
When the link has been installed, web pages provide information about the link loss
currently measured by the equipment, both instantaneously and averaged. The
averaged value will require maximum seasonal fading to be added, and then the radio
reliability of the link can be computed.

For minimum error rates on TDM links, the maximum modulation mode should be
limited to 64QAM 0.75.
The values for (BPSK) are static receive sensitivity measurements. The other values
are static receive sensitivity measurements with an AMOD threshold applied. The
AMOD threshold applied is for a benign radio channel.
Modulation mode affects the following:
Sensitivity
Sensitivity is defined as the combined receive input signal level on both horizontal and
vertical inputs that produces a Null BER Error ratio of 3x10-7.
Output Power
The output power is for a centre channel in Region 1. The output power will be
reduced on the edge channels and may vary if different region codes are selected.
AMOD Threshold
The AMOD threshold is the combined receive input signal level on both horizontal and
vertical inputs that results in the link consistently entering the receive modulation
mode under consideration as the signal level is increased.
System Threshold
Thresholds for all modes except BPSK are for the relevant link optimization AMOD
thresholds. System threshold for BPSK is the RPSK receive sensitivity.
Max Link Loss
The maximum link loss for each modulation mode is derived from the AMOD threshold
for that mode (sensitivity threshold for BPSK) and the maximum Region 1 centre
channel output power. The figures assume integral antennas are used, with gain
depending upon frequency band as follows:
• 23 dBi (5.9 GHz, 5.8 GHz and 5.4 GHz)
• 22 dBi (4.8 GHz and 4.9 GHz)
• 21.5 dBi (4.5 GHz)
• 18 dBi (2.5 GHz)

Planning synchronized networks
Using PTP LINKPlanner for synchronized networks
TDD synchronization should be planned using LINKPlanner. This will provide the
necessary TDD Frame parameter values which are required to complete a
synchronized installation. Please refer to the
Link Planner User Guide
.
TDD synchronization configuration options
The PTP 600 supports the following TDD synchronization configurations:
• Standalone with UltraSync (Figure 2-2): Each link requires an Ultrasync GPS
receiver connected at the master ODU. Use this configuration only for legacy
applications.
• Standalone with PTP SYNC (Figure 2-3): Each link requires one PTP-SYNC unit
connected to the master ODU and one compatibles GPS receiver. Use this
configuration where a site contains only one TDD master ODU. The GPS Receiver
and LPU can be replaced by an alternative compatible 1 Hz timing reference.
• Cluster with PTP SYNC and GPS receiver (Figure 2-4): Each link requires one
PTP SYNC unit. Each site requires one compatible GPS receiver. Collocated PTP
SYNC units are connected together in a daisy-chain. Use this configuration
where a site contains collocated TDD master ODUs in an extended network
where TDD master ODUs are located at multiple sites.
• Cluster with PTP SYNC and no GPS receiver (Figure 2-5): Each link requires one
PTP SYNC unit. PTP SYNC units are connected together in a daisy-chain. One
ODU is designated as a cluster timing master. Use this configuration where all
master ODUs are collocated at a single site. As this configuration does not
require a GPS receiver, it provides additional flexibility, particularly in
applications requiring rapid deployment.
NOTE
If PTP-SYNC is the selected TDD synchronization method, select a 1 Hz
timing reference for the system. This will normally be a GPS receiver
module.

Lightning protection
This section provides instructions for protecting PTP 600 installations against
lightning strike. The purpose of lightning protection is to protect structures,
equipment and people against lightning by conducting the lightning current to ground
via a separate preferential solid path.
The following topics are described in this section:
• Lightning protection zones on page 2-19
• Grounding considerations on page 2-20
• LPU configuration options on page 2-21
• LPU kit on page 2-22
• LPU installation wiring on page 2-24
• Site installation diagrams on page 2-26
This section should be treated as a guide only. The actual degree of lightning
protection required depends on local conditions and weather patterns and applicable
local regulations. 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.
CAUTION
EMD (Lightning) damage is not covered under standard warranty. The
recommendations in this user manual, when implemented correctly, give the
user the best protection from the harmful effects of EMD. However 100%
protection is neither implied nor possible.

Lightning protection zones
Lightning protection zones are determined by using the ‘rolling sphere method’
(Figure 2-6). Assess locations on masts, towers and buildings to determine if the
location is in Zone A or Zone B:
• Zone A: In this zone a direct lightning strike is possible. Do not mount the ODU
and antenna 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 the ODU and antenna in this zone.
WARNING
Never mount the ODU in Zone A. Mounting in Zone A may put
equipment, structures and life at risk.

The rolling sphere method
An imaginary sphere, typically 50 meters in radius, is rolled over the structure (Figure
2-6). 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 in the zone of protection.
Grounding considerations
The PTP 600 Series ODU grounding point can be found on the bottom of the unit. The
ODU is supplied with an appropriate grounding lug.
The following protection requirements are mandatory:
• The ODU must be earthed
• Screened CAT 5e cable must be used
• Surge arrestors of type PTP-LPU must be installed at both the ODU and building
entry
• There must be an earth connection at building entry
The recommended standard components for protecting installations are listed in Site
installation diagrams on page 2-26.

Site installation diagrams
This section contains diagrams to show how the components of PTP 600 sites are
installed and connected with LPU. The diagrams cover the following configurations:
• Typical mast or tower installation
• Typical wall installation
• Mast or tower installation with E1/T1
• Wall installation with E1/T1
• Mast or tower installation with GPS Sync Unit
• Wall installation with GPS Sync Unit
• Mast or tower installation with GPS Sync Unit and E1/T1
• Wall installation with GPS Sync Unit and E1/T1
The recommended standard components for protecting installations are:
• The supported Superior Essex cable
• Surge arrestor, type PTP-LPU: 4 or 8 per link (2 or 4 Motorola Kits Part Number
WB2907AA)
• Grounding stake
• Grounding cable: minimum size 8 AWG, preferably 6 or 4 AWG
• RJ45 screened connectors
Additional components are listed under each diagram where required. The
recommended cables are specified in Cables and connectors on page 1-15.
There may be a local regulatory requirement to cross bond the CAT 5e cable to the
mast or tower at intervals as regular as every 10 metres (33 feet). This can be
achieved using an Andrew grounding assembly type 223158 or similar.
NOTE
Refer to instructions contained in the Andrew grounding kit for correct
installation, or if instructions are missing, refer to:

Protection of the GPS receiver for PTP-SYNC
If PTP-SYNC is the selected TDD synchronization method, with a GPS receiver as the
timing reference source, then the GPS receiver must be protected as described in this
section.
CAUTION
Ensure that the GPS receiver module is mounted in a position where all
lightning protection requirements can be met.
GPS receiver mounting options
The options for mounting the GPS receiver module are as follows:
• Mount it on the wall of the equipment building, if there is a suitable position from
which it can receive an adequate satellite signal.
• Failing that, mount it on a metal tower or mast.
Mounting the GPS receiver module on the equipment building
If mounting the GPS receiver module on the equipment building (Figure 2-20), select a
position on the wall that meets the following requirements:
• It must have an un-interrupted view of the sky.
• It must receive an adequate signal from at least one GPS satellite.
• It must be in ‘Zone B’ (refer to Lightning protection zones on page 2-19).
• 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 terminals and finials.
• It must not project more than 600mm (24 inches) from the wall of the building.
• It must be possible to wire it to the PTP-SYNC unit via an LPU with Superior
Essex screened 4-pair cable.
If these requirements cannot all be met, then the module must be mounted on a metal
tower or mast.

• It must not be mounted any higher than is necessary to receive an adequate
signal from a GPS satellite.
• It must be lower than the top of the tower or its lightning terminal and finial.
• It must be protected by a nearby lightning terminal or finial that projects further
out from the tower than the GPS receiver module.

PTP 600 general reference information
Compliance with regulations
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Motorola could void the user’s
authority to operate the system.
This system has achieved Type Approval in various countries around the world. This
means that the system has been tested against various local technical regulations and
found to comply. The frequency bands in which the system operates may be
‘unlicensed’ and, in these bands, the system can be used provided it does not cause
interference. Further, it is not guaranteed protection against interference from other
products and installations.
CAUTION
When planning a link that will use Connectorized PTP 600 Seriess (with external
antennas), ensure that regulatory requirements are met for the installation, as
described in Regulatory issues with connectorized units on page 8-10.
FCC and ETSI compliance testing
The system has been tested for compliance to both US (FCC) and European (ETSI)
specifications. It has been shown to comply with the limits for emitted spurious
radiation for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules in the USA
and appropriate European ENs. These limits have been designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference. However the equipment can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to other radio communications. There is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
When the system is used with PTP-SYNC, then it meets the requirements for a Class A
digital device.
NOTE
A Class B Digital Device is a device that is marketed for use in a residential
environment, notwithstanding use in commercial, business and industrial
environments.
A Class A Digital Device is a device that is marketed for use in a commercial,
industrial or business environment, exclusive of a device which is marketed
for use by the general public or is intended to be used in the home.

Radio and television interference
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the Outdoor Unit (ODU).
• Increase the separation between the affected equipment and ODU.
• Connect the ODU and PIDU Plus into a power outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult your installer or supplier for help.
Deployment and operation
The Radio Regulations of various countries’ limits constrain the operation of radio
products generally. In particular the local regulator may limit the amount of conducted
or radiated transmitter power and may require registration of the radio link.
The power transmitted by the PTP 600 Series is controlled by the use of Region-
specific License Keys. Contact your supplier/installer to ensure that your product is set
for the correct License Key for your Country/Region and to ensure that you have
fulfilled all the local regulatory requirements, especially if you are intending to use a
link with external antennas.

NOTE
Gain of antenna in dBi = 10*log(G).
The regulations require that the power used for the calculations is the
maximum power in the transmit burst subject to allowance for source-based
time-averaging.
At 5.4 GHz and EU 5.8 GHz, the products are generally limited to a fixed
EIRP which can be achieved with the Integrated Antenna. The calculations
above assume that the maximum EIRP allowed by the regulations is being
transmitted.
NOTE
If there are no EIRP limits in the country of deployment, use the distance
calculations for FCC 5.8 GHz for all frequency bands.
At FCC 5.8 GHz, for antennas between 0.6m (2ft) and 1.8m (6ft), alter the
distance proportionally to the antenna gain.
At 2.5 GHz, for antennas between 1.2m (4ft) and 3.6m (12ft) the safe
distance is increased to between 0.8m (2.6 ft) and 2.4m (7.8 ft).

4-56 UNDER DEVELOPMENT Feb 2010
This device complies with part 15.407 of the US FCC Rules and Regulations and with
RSS-210 Issue 7 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation. In Canada, users should be cautioned to take note that high
power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) of 5250 –
5350 MHz and 5650 – 5850 MHz and these radars could cause interference and/or
damage to license-exempt local area networks (LELAN).
For the connectorized version of the product and in order to reduce potential radio
interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the
equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that permitted by the
regulations. The transmitted power must be reduced to achieve this requirement.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the US FCC Rules and with RSS-210 of Industry
Canada. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with these
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is encouraged to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Increase the separation between the affected equipment and the unit;
• Connect the affected equipment to a power outlet on a different circuit from that
which the receiver is connected to;
• Consult the dealer and/or experienced radio/TV technician for help.
• FCC IDs and Industry Canada Certification Numbers are listed below:
Where necessary, the end user is responsible for obtaining any National licenses
required to operate this product and these must be obtained before using the product
in any particular country. Contact the appropriate national administrations for details
on the conditions of use for the bands in question and any exceptions that might apply.

PTP 54600 FCC antenna restrictions
In FCC regions, external antennas from the list in Table 4-46 can be used with the
Connectorized version of the PTP 54600. These are approved by the FCC for use with
the product and are constrained by the following limit for Single/Dual Polarization
Parabolic Dish Antennas: up to 34.9 dBi (33.4 dBi for 5 MHz bandwidth) per
polarization or antenna.
However, the Maximum Transmit Power must be reduced to avoid exceeding the EIRP
limits.
In FCC regions when using external antennas, cable loss between the connectorized
version of the PTP 600 Series and the antenna ports must not be less than 1.2 dB.
CAUTION
Antennas not included in this table, or those having a gain greater than the
specified maximum, are strictly prohibited for use with the PTP 54600. The
required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

PTP 58600 FCC and IC notification
U.S. Federal Communication Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada (IC) Notification.
This system has achieved Type Approval in various countries around the world. This
means that the system has been tested against various local technical regulations and
found to comply. The frequency band in which the system operates is ‘license exempt’
and the system is allowed to be used provided it does not cause interference. Further,
the licensing authority does not guaranteed protection against interference from other
products and installations.
This device complies with part 15 of the US FCC Rules and Regulations and with RSS-
210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. In
Canada, users should be cautioned to take note that high power radars are allocated
as primary users (meaning they have priority) of the 5650 – 5850 MHz spectrum and
these radars could cause interference and/or damage to license-exempt local area
networks (LELAN).
For the connectorized version of the product and in order to reduce potential radio
interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the
Effective Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) is not more than that permitted for
successful communication.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the US FCC Rules and with RSS-210 of Industry
Canada. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with these
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is encouraged to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Increase the separation between the affected equipment and the unit;
• Connect the affected equipment to a power outlet on a different circuit from that
which the receiver is connected to;

The European Union's WEEE directive requires that products sold into EU countries
must have the crossed out trash bin label on the product (or the package in some
cases). As defined by the WEEE directive, this cross-out trash bin label means
that customers and end-users in EU countries should not dispose of electronic and
electrical equipment or accessories in household waste. Customers or end-users in EU
countries should contact their local equipment supplier representative or service
center for information about the waste collection system in their country.
UK notification
The PTP 58600 connectorized product has been notified for operation in the UK, and
when operated in accordance with instructions for use it is compliant with UK
Interface Requirement IR2007. For UK use, installations must conform to the
requirements of IR2007 in terms of EIRP spectral density against elevation profile
above the local horizon in order to protect Fixed Satellite Services. The frequency
range 5795-5815 MHz is assigned to Road Transport & Traffic Telematics (RTTT) in
the U.K. and shall not be used by FWA systems in order to protect RTTT devices. UK
Interface Requirement IR2007 specifies that radiolocation services shall be protected
by a Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) mechanism to prevent co-channel operation
in the presence of radar signals.

PTP 58600 Transmit Power Reduction at the Band Edges
Operation at or near the 5.8 GHz band edges can results in a lower maximum transmit
power. In some configurations the PTP 600 Series solution reduces the power when
operating at the edge channels. The amount of reduction, if any, is dependant on the
region code of the region of operation. This currently only affects systems configured
with region code 1. The power reductions in the edge channels for 5 MHz, 10 MHz, 15
MHz and 30 MHz are presented in Table 4-52 (for region code 1 ONLY).
