Scope of Manual The purpose of this manual is to provide professional planning and installation personnel with the appropriate information and procedures required to install and operate the RuralConnect® TV White Space Broadband Radio and accessory equipment. In order to avoid harm to persons or damage to the product, please ensure that you have read and understand the safety, unpacking, and installation sections before proceeding. 1.2. Overview The RuralConnect® TV White Space Broadband Radio is designed to utilize “white space” spectrum in the 470–608 MHz (TV channels 14–36) and 614–698 MHz (TV channels 38–51) frequencies in order to provide reliable, high speed broadband for applications where traditional microwave solutions won’t provide adequate RF performance. The system uses state of the art Single Carrier Frequency Domain Equalization (SC-FDE) to provide protection against signal fading caused by multipath interference (phase-shifting) while offering a robust clean transmit spectrum. Reflections from trees, buildings and hills are inevitable for long range wireless links. These reflections arrive at slightly different times, causing deep fading across the channels used by white space systems. Without equalization, this fading causes poor performance; even for links between devices that are Figure 2: RuralConnect® CPE Unit theoretically in range. SC-FDE allows more flexible installations where obstructions and foliage are known factors. Combined with a proprietary adaptive equalization system, SC-FDE allows the system to correct for multipath fading. This ensures reliable connections even in mountainous, forested, and/or built-up areas where strong signal reflections are common. In the U.S., the RuralConnect® is only available with a 6 MHz channel bandwidth. The system is fully compliant with FCC Part 15H regulations. Our international models ensure worldwide compatibility, regardless of the TV broadcast technology in use. International users must ensure compliance with their regulatory authorities. For export only, international models are available in both 6 MHz and 8 MHz versions. 2. Pre-test and System Planning 2.1. Proper Handling You must follow precautionary measures when handling RuralConnect® devices. Improper handling of your equipment may cause damage and void your warranty. The electronic Page | 7 PRELIMINARY RELEASE *** This is a confidential document. Do not distribute. *** components of the RuralConnect® equipment are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Use adequate ESD protection, such as an anti-static wrist strap, whenever handling the equipment. It is also important to avoid the use of conductive tools. 2.2. Grounding A ground is a low impedance electrical connection to the earth utilized for energy dissipation. Grounding the RuralConnect® is very important for safety reasons, as well as protecting the system from damage due to lightning and/or static charge build up. Since lightning strikes and surges are high-current and high-frequency events; short, straight ground wires (not coiled or looped) must be used. Choose the largest diameter ground wire your ground connectors will accept for good electrical conductivity. We recommended a #8 gauge copper wire or larger. Utility company grounds, grounding rods, well casings, and cold water pipes constructed of continuous metal are strongly recommended. A note of caution: sometimes repaired and/or extended metal cold-water pipes include PVC sections hidden behind drywall. PVC will disrupt conductivity and render the pipe unacceptable as a ground. Conductivity is often poor in desert areas, so multiple ground rods may be required (preferably bonded together to make a suitable connection). The impedance of your grounding should never exceed 5 Ohms. Carlson recommends maintaining a ground with less than 3 Ohms. Undesirable grounds include, but are not limited to, sprinkler pipes, PVC pipes, conduit, and buried wire. Never use an unverified ground. In order to prevent electric shock, always disconnect the remote power source and all cables from the system prior to removing the grounding connection. 2.3. Lightning Protection Poorly grounded lightning protection is the same as having no protection at all! Lightning is one of the most dangerous, yet most common, natural hazards for a RuralConnect® system. It is absolutely essential to install and maintain adequate lightning protection for your equipment. Verified ground connections are imperative for lightning protection to work correctly. Primary lightning protection is located outside the enclosure. Install primary lightning protection with a good ground on all RF and/or data connections that have even a moderate outdoor line build-out. Best practices dictate all lines entering or exiting a building need protection. You must use protection on both ends of the cables between buildings! Contact your sales representative for detailed specifications and usage information for the primary lightning protection solutions available from Carlson. In areas with frequent lighting activity, augmenting the client station install with a nearby lightning rod is strongly recommended. Lightning can be unpredictably strike, might miss the antenna mast altogether, and make contact with underlying wiring/cabling instead. Lightning discharges into the lowest impedance path to ground, i.e. earth. In many cases this will be the master ground in the primary AC panel, unless nearby grounding is installed. 2.4. Cable Recommendations Use of proper high-quality cabling is important to ensure the best performance for your RuralConnect® system. Carlson extensively researched and tested cabling before selecting those offered for RuralConnect® customers. It is recommended that you use only Carlson approved cables. Discuss your cabling options with your Carlson Sales Representative. Page | 8 PRELIMINARY RELEASE *** This is a confidential document. Do not distribute. *** 2.4.1. RF Cables Carlson carries professional-grade RF coax cables that provide greater durability and less attenuation/loss than those readily available. We offer and recommend well-insulated 75-Ohm broadband coaxial cable with gas-injected foam polyethylene insulation. For short jumper connections, use 18 AWG RG-6/U cables with a solid .040” bare copper conductor. For longer runs, use 14 AWG RG-11 cables with a .064” bare copper conductor. Only use cables with 100% solid copper center conductors. Lower-quality copper-clad conductors have decreased performance and can lead to failures. 75-Ohm cabling used for RuralConnect® installation cannot exceed 150-feet (45.72 meters). Terminate all coax cables with weather-sealed 75-Ohm F-type compression connectors with PVC jackets. Do not use crimp-type connectors. Avoid cable bends as much as possible; do not put more than a 90-degree bend in any cable run. 2.4.2. Data Cables Network performance is greatly affected by the quality of the data cabling used. Carlson carries and recommends shielded, grounded, outdoor Category-5 or higher twisted pair cable. 2.5. Recommended Tools These are the tools needed to set up a RuralConnect® system. Make sure you have them handy to ensure a seamless installation. ESD gear Wrench set (Standard) Socket set (Standard) Screwdriver set (Phillips and Standard) Multimeter/multitester Wire cutters Wire strippers Vapor wrap Electrical tape You will need an IBM PC-compatible computer (or equivalent virtual machine) equipped with the following: Microsoft Windows 7 or greater Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 At least 512 Megabytes (MB) of RAM Keyboard and mouse (or other compatible pointing device) Display adapter and monitor (1024x768 or higher resolution) 100/1000 Mbps Ethernet network adapter Pre-Installation Page | 9 PRELIMINARY RELEASE *** This is a confidential document.

Visit the Carlson Online Help Desk if you have any questions. 4.1. Basestation Figure 17: Carlson Basestation The Basestation is a 19” rack mountable device that will normally be installed in a weatherproof cabinet at or close to the mounting point for its external antenna. Suitable antennas are available from Carlson. The Basestation connects to the internet via a standard Ethernet port, where it automatically obtains an IP address from a DHCP server. It encodes data from the Ethernet connection for transmission to one or more CPE units. It decodes transmissions from the CPEs and sends these to the internet. Carlson designers have deliberately limited the number of physical controls on the Basestation. All of the control, configuration and management options of the Basestation are handled via the cloud-based OMC interface. Page | 16 PRELIMINARY RELEASE *** This is a confidential document.

Enter any keywords you wish to search for and press Enter, or click the “Filter” button. After a brief delay, you will see the results of your search. Figure 26: Filtering Choices Click on the arrow to the left of any Basestation. This will expand the “cell” list, showing associated CPEs. Clicking the “Id” or “Name” hyperlink of any station will give you a popup “Station Properties” window. See Section 5.7 of this manual to learn more about Station Properties. Figure 27: Expanded "Cell" List 5.5. Stations Click on the “Stations” tab at the top of the OMC window. This is a list of radios assigned to your account. The OMC will only display radios assigned to your account. If an expected radio does not appear in this list, you must make a request to Carlson Support for a database update. Each radio will have a customized name and description. Unless requested otherwise, Carlson will use a default naming convention. Basestation names begin with “CSB”, followed by the serial number with one leading zero removed (i.e., “CSB00123”). CPE names begin with “CST”, using the same serial number syntax (i.e., "CST00123"). The “Rbt” column shows if the Page | 20 Figure 28: Stations Display PRELIMINARY RELEASE *** This is a confidential document. Do not distribute. *** Basestation is currently in a “soft-reboot” state, indicated by a checkmark. The radio is not accessible while in this state; access will resume upon successful completion of the boot sequence. Note: the Basestation boot process can take up to five (5) minutes or more. The “Last Reported” column displays the amount of time elapsed since your Basestation last reported state to the OMC. Active Basestations always report in less than one minute, indicated in green. 5.6. Cell Control Click the “Cell Control” tab at the top of the OMC window. Figure 29: Cell Control Display Cell Control is the area of the OMC where you can view and edit the settings affecting the performance of each radio. As of April 13, 2013, this is the only area of the OMC where end users can make changes. After making your desired changes, click the “Save Changes” button to apply them. Use the “Mute” button to disable the radio on the Basestation. Place a check into the box to enable this feature. This will disable the Basestation radio. Your RuralConnect® network will not function with this feature enabled. 5.6.1. Modulation Modes The performance of each RF link is determined by the signal quality and the modulation mode used. These drop-down menus allow you to select the modulation mode for both the uplink and downlink of each CPE. You can only change the setting for one station at a time. After making changes, press the “Save Changes” button. The changes will be applied and the Cell Control tab will reset. Complex modulation types are at the top of the list, followed by simpler modulation types and various forms of forward error correction (FEC). Complex Page | 21 Figure 30: Modulation Settings PRELIMINARY RELEASE *** This is a confidential document. Do not distribute. *** modulations, such as quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) provide a mechanism for higher bit rates, and thus more available throughput. These complex modulations, however, have a negative impact on the receive threshold of the radio, the signal level at which the link is unreliable. Modulation modes are in order of net bit rate, with the highest bit rate at the top of the list. The effective throughput of an RF link is based on the net bit rate, less the PHY and link-layer overheads. Modulation modes in Cell Control include acronyms for modulation types and abbreviations for FEC types. “Conv_Punct”, a 3/4 punctured convolutional coding rate, provides 25% FEC, reducing the available payload to 75% of the gross bit rate. “Conv” is a 1/2 convolutional coding rate. This 50% FEC produces a reliable communications channel, while reducing the available payload to 50% of the gross bit rate. Basestations will commonly use “Qpsk_1_Conv” for the Uplink and Downlink modulation modes. This modulation mode provides a good link reliability and provides enough bandwidth for system controls Set your CPE stations with the modulation mode that meets the needs of the installation and application. Stronger signal-to-noise ratios will allow the use of higher modulation modes, providing higher throughput. An SNR of 25 or greater will allow the use of QAM16 with FEC, while an SNR of 30 or greater is required before you can disable FEC (“QAM16_None”). For troubleshooting RF links with errors and/or poor signals, select a lower modulation mode. An “Adaptive Modulation” button is available, which will enable dynamic control of the link modulation mode, to maintain link stability in varied conditions. Although this is useful feature, a fixed modulation type will provide better performance. 5.7. Station Properties From many areas around the OMC, you can click on the “Id” or “Name” hyperlink of a station to open a “Station Properties” pop-up window. Clicking the ID will open a new webpage. Clicking the Name will open a pop-up window. Basestations and CPEs have similar properties, along with sections unique to each role. The upper section includes the Stations Details. The lower section includes various tabs for each control and status area of the station. 5.7.1. Figure 31: Station Links Basestation Details Figure 32: Basestation Details For smaller screens, you can maximize the window by clicking its header/title bar. Page | 22 PRELIMINARY RELEASE *** This is a confidential document. Do not distribute. *** Basestation Details include the name, description, GUID, IP Address, whitespace database provider. You will also see the “AfterBootSystem”, the boot image used to initialize the Basestation with the OMC upon establishing a connection. You will also see two buttons. To perform a “soft reboot” of a Basestation, click the “Reboot” button. To restart the station software alone, without a reboot, click the “Restart Stack” button. Health The first Station Properties tab, “Health”, is open by default, displaying the last reported date and time for each control interface. Basestations also report the current channel and channel allocations. Channel Allocations The spectrum database provides a list of available channels, based on the registration details. The OMC displays the allocated channel is a list on this tab. Figure 33: Channel Allocation An active RuralConnect network requires an active channel allocation. You can find this information in other areas of the OMC, as well. On the right of each channel listed, you will see the expiration, or “Expiry Time”. This is a colorcoded indicator of the expiration of the channel allocation lease provided by the spectrum database. If the Basestation fails to acquire a new lease before the Expiry Time shown, it will cease transmission. The radio will not transmit until the OMC obtains a new channel allocation lease. Underneath the channel allocations, you will also see the current channel and details of the last spectrum database activity results. Interfaces Each radio has multiple network connections created for controls to and from the OMC. This value indicates the most recent date and time interface successfully established a connection to the station. If an Internet connection fails, these interfaces will fail to communicate. During such down time, the OMC cannot control the station, though local network functionality will continue until the channel Figure 34: Interface Date/Time Stamps Page | 23 PRELIMINARY RELEASE *** This is a confidential document.
