WRM Product Manual – 2.6 GHz WCS Band Radio Module Page 3 of 21 About this Document This document is a product manual for the B2XH068AA-A 2.6 GHz WCS band Backhaul Radio Module 1, FCC ID RAR 20007001. The manual outlines the radio modules limitations on use in BelAir Networks products marketed or offered for sale. An overview of BelAir Networks products is included with information on the module installation in these products. Specifications on approved antennas to be used with the module are provided This manual provides an outline on the module installation , limitations of use, location of FCC label information , regulatory statements and RF exposure minimum safety requirements. Introduction The B2XH068AA-A (hereafter referred to as “the module”) is a 2.6 GHz WCS band radio module compatible with the IEEE 802.16-2004 standard for WIMAX operation. The module contains a complete 802.16 radio and Medium Access Control protocol engine. The module is not intended for stand-alone operation. It will only be marketed as a complete product, in conjunction with a package, DC power supply and antenna (hereafter referred to as “the product” or the “final product”). Since the module has a BelAir networks proprietary digital interface, it cannot be directly connected to any standard telecommunications or computer devices. It can only be used with final products designed and authorized specifically for that purpose. The WiMAX Radio Module (WRM, RAR20007001) is a BelAir Networks radio module designed to operate in the 2.6 GHz frequency bands (BRS / EBS bands) using the IEEE 802.16-2004 (Wireless MAN-OFDM physical layer) (WiMAX) industry standard. The module will operate under FCC part 27 covering a portion of the frequencies in the UBS band segment under part 27.5, specifically BRS channels E1 to G3 post transition frequency assignments. The WRM provides WiMAX backhaul support for the BelAir200 and BelAir100 wireless mesh nodes with the capacity to deliver up to 40 Mbps of dedicated data throughput. The WRM supports point-to-point topologies (fixed applications) and is ideal for creating dedicated connections to other BelAir wireless mesh nodes in a network . An ideal deployment for the WRM is to configure it with BelAir200 nodes and/or BelAir100 nodes

WRM Product Manual – 2.6 GHz WCS Band Radio Module Page 4 of 21 to provide last mile access for cellular backhaul applications. The WRM operates in the licensed 2.6 GHz frequency bands, and the added capacity that WiMAX (IEEE 802.16d) delivers to the network is ideal for critical applications such as voice traffic. Picture of the B2XH068AA-A 2.6 GHz WCS band Backhaul Radio Module is shown below for reference, notice that the connector interfaces only allow integration of the module into BelAir Networks products .
