The ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios The Exalt ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios are the most advanced quad-band radios operating in the 4.9, 5.3, 5.4, and 5.8 GHz bands. The ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios connect digital data from one location to another, obviating the need for copper or fiber connectivity, or enhancing existing connectivity by providing a redundancy solution, a primary solution, and/or additional capacity. Figure 1 shows the ExtendAir eMIMO Series digital microwave radio. Figure 1 Exalt ExtendAir eMIMO Series Radio The following ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios are covered in this manual: • r5050 and rc5050 – configured with 100 Mbps aggregate over-the-air capacity (1PoE port plus two Ethernet ports) – with license key upgrade for 250 Mbps aggregate capacity 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios The ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios allows operations in a near line-of-sight (nLOS) and non-line-ofsight (NLOS) conditions. Provide proper path clearance to achieve a high-performance, reliable connection. Perform professional path engineering and site planning before installing this equipment. The primary focus of this document is the installation and management of the digital microwave radio, and assumes that path engineering and site planning has already been performed. ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios utilize radio frequencies in the 4.90 to 4.94 GHz range. In most countries, this frequency band is allocated exclusively for Public Safety usage and specific restrictions for applications may apply. Licensing or registration may be required. Consult your country regulations to determine any restrictions that may apply and any process that must be followed to implement links in this band. ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios utilize radio frequencies in the 5.250 to 5.875 GHz range. In most countries these frequency bands are considered as ‘license-exempt’ or ‘unlicensed.’ This means that virtually any user may use these frequencies freely, without paying for access, or any type of prenotification, post-notification or registration. As a result of this designation, users may also move or change these systems at any time, with significant flexibility to the location, orientation and configuration of the system. However, due also to this designation, there may be uncontrolled interference from other similar devices that occupy this spectrum. In these cases, it is up to engineering and maintenance personnel to design the system with existing and future interference sources in mind, recognizing that there is a chance that the interference conditions could be very dynamic, and outages may occur on the system as a result, and that, in some very rare cases, the system may cause interference into another system and may be required to be disengaged or modified/re-oriented to eliminate the interference. If the spectrum in your country is designated as ‘license-exempt’ or similar, this does not infer that the installer may configure the system in any manner at any location. In most cases, there are regulations, or device-based conditions that limit the use of the device, such as maximum gain antenna, antenna types and maximum output power, as well as, in some cases, application limits, limited geography of use, and other unique regulations. The link design engineer and/or professional installer must determine these limitations and engineer/install the system within the confines of all local regulations. Also, it is required to examine any regulations that may apply to peripheral equipment, installation and cabling of the system that may be regulated for human safety, electrical code, air-traffic control, and other safety-related categories. In certain countries, the spectrum for this product is NOT considered to be license-exempt. In these cases, there may be additional regulatory requirements concerning the location, frequency, power, orientation, configuration, and other aspects of the system, including, in some cases, a need for link registration, coordination, and fees that may apply to the system usage. Please consult your local regulatory organization(s) to determine usage requirements. In almost all cases, either for license-exempt or other designation, the product itself must be authorized for use in your country. Either Exalt or Exalt’s agent must have applied for certification or authorization to allow the sale and deployment of the system within the country. It is also possible that only certain versions or configurations of the device are allowed within a particular country. Please contact Exalt or your authorized Exalt representative for information pertaining to your country. Note: It is the (professional) installer’s responsibility to ensure that the radio system is implemented in a legal fashion. Exalt is not liable for any unsafe or illegal installations. 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Basic Features ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave radios are intended for all-outdoor mounting and powered by a separately-purchased power injector. In some cases, the radio can be mounted indoors or in an enclosure. Depending on the configuration purchased, the associated antenna is either integrated as part of the unit or connected separately. For the external antenna models, the unit is typically mounted very close to the external antenna to minimize RF cabling and associated losses. Alternatively, the unit can be mounted at an easily accessible location with longer RF cabling to the antenna. Proper lightning or surge suppression devices and associated grounding are required for all connections. Figure 2 Cabling and mounting For highest performance and reliability, it is advised to minimize the length of RF cable and associated transmission system losses between the antenna and the radio’s antenna port. The ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios provide connections for a combination of the following data communication interfaces: • One 10/100/1000BaseT (PoE) port and two 10/100 ports ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios are powered by a combined Power/Ethernet cable, and associated power injector. The power injector provides 48VDC to the unit. The power injector and/or external power supply are sold separately. The ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios provide the following primary features and benefits: • Low-latency optimization and control for voice and data connections • Very high throughput and flexible interface configurations with voice+data combinations • High density collocation using ExaltSyncTM (future feature release) • Longer range with smaller antennas. Exalt provides the highest system gain advantage with higher transmit power while sustaining higher throughput levels when competitors must lower modulation levels to maintain the link. • Space-Time Block Code (STBC) support: The space-time block code used in ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios is based on an Alamouti sequence and uses two antennas to transmit a single data 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios stream. This allows transmit diversity and power distribution, which reduces linearity requirements and improves the link budget by 3dB. • Encryption for extreme wireless security • VLAN tagging and QoS • Easy-to-use management and configuration • Flexible utilized channel bandwidth selection for interference avoidance and frequency coordination • Flexible center frequency tuning for interference avoidance and frequency coordination • Flexible capacity to meet current connection requirements and future growth needs • Carrier-class reliability and performance 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Pre-installation Tasks This section describes the steps necessary to prepare a site for the installation of the Exalt Digital Microwave Radio. Link Engineering and Site Planning Design all terrestrial wireless links prior to purchase and installation. Generally, professional wireless engineering personnel are engaged to determine the viability and requirements for a well-engineered link to meet the users’ needs for performance and reliability. Exalt recommends using a link budget calculator and/or path planning tool to aid in the pre-planning and engineering required to determine following attributes: • Antenna type gain at each end of the link • Antenna mounting height/location for proper path clearance • Antenna polarization orientation • RF cabling type, length, connectors, route, and mounting • Antenna system grounding • Lightning arrestor type(s), location(s), and grounding • Radio mounting location and mechanisms • Radio grounding • Radio transmitter output power setting • Anticipated received signal level (RSL) at each end • Anticipated fade margin and availability performance at each end • Radio settings • Anticipated throughput performance With respect to radio path and site planning, these radios are generally identical to other microwave terrestrial wireless systems. Engineering of these systems requires specific knowledge about the radios, including: • RF specifications (transmitter output power, receiver threshold, occupied channel bandwidth, and carrier-to-interference) • Regulatory limitations on transmitter output power setting and antenna type/gain • Noise/interference profile for the intended location Familiarization w ith the ExtendAir eMI MO Series Radios The ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios utilize time division duplex (TDD) radio transmission. This means that the transmitted signal in both directions uses the same center frequency and transmits in one direction for a period of time, and then in the opposite direction for another period of time. This total period of time is referred to as the frame length or TDD frame length, and is further discussed in Time Division Duplex (TDD) Factors. 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios The two radio terminals are identical hardware, except for the TDD setting in software. When the radios are in their default state, both radios are configured as Radio B. One end of the link must be configured as Radio A before the two ends of the radio system can communicate. It can be considered that Radio A is the primary radio in the link. Radio A provides the master clock and control to Radio B. For most applications, it is not important how the radio link is oriented, only that one end is configured for Radio A and the other for Radio B. For some applications (such as, multi-radio hub sites or repeaters), the orientation of the radio systems may be more critical. See Link Orientation and Synchronization (future feature) for details. Exalt recommends using the Exalt GUI for radio configuration. This interface requires a computer with an Ethernet port and web browser software, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or above. See Configuration and Management for details on how to connect to and use the browser-based GUI interface. Shipping Box Contents Two terminals are required to create a link. The terminal box contains the following items: • Radio terminal (configured as Radio B) • Mounting kit (for pole mounting) • Accessory kit – Grounding screw/washers – Weather-sealing tape (required for RF connectors on the rc versions) – RSL adapter cable • Registration card • Quick-start guide The power solution for ExtendAir eMIMO Series is sold separately. Any 802.3af compliant powerover-Ethernet solution may be used. 802.3at compatibility is also provided. Inspect the outer packaging and the contents of the boxes upon receipt. If you suspect any shipping damage or issues with the contents, contact Exalt Customer Care. Note: Register your system as soon as possible. A 2-year Warranty period applies to products registered within 90 days of purchase. The Warranty period is reduced to 1-year for unregistered products and products registered after the first 90 days. Outdoor-rated and shielded CAT5e or CAT6 cable, such as Beldon 1300A, with RJ-45 connectors is recommended for the Ethernet connections. For Ethernet connections, a maximum length of 100 meters applies to the total length of the cabling between the radio terminal and the first network-aware connection (such as a switch or router). I nitial Configuration and Back-to-Back Bench Test Every Exalt digital microwave radio goes through extensive quality testing and performance evaluation over the full operating temperature range prior to shipment. However, before installation, it is strongly advised to perform several tests and tasks that are much more difficult to perform once the radio link endpoints are distant from one another. A back-to-back bench test and pre-configuration will provide confidence that the radio link is operational and properly configured prior to installation, so 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios that if troubleshooting is necessary, the radio hardware and configuration settings are eliminated from the troubleshooting process. Verify the following in the back-to-back testing: • Confirm that the radio system is generally operational – Radios power-up with planned power and wiring solutions – Radio firmware version matches on each terminal (and is ideally the latest version) – Upgrade license key entry successful – RF link connects in both directions – Traffic passes across the link Note: Some countries require Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) for certain frequency bands, which delays the transmitter turn-on time during the initial Channel Availability Check period of 1 minute. In accordance with these regulations, the radios boot up, and then wait for 1 minute before linking. • – Configure connected equipment and cabling – Test Ethernet (CAT5e or CAT6) cabling – Configure IP settings for configuration and management – Configure passwords and security modes – Become familiar with the configuration and management interfaces through the Exalt GUI interface – Configure radio parameters – Set transmitter output power to engineered or allowed level (see RF Output Power Setting) – Set operating center frequency – Set link distance and occupied channel bandwidth Make detailed radio performance measurements – Measure transmitter output power – Measure receiver threshold performance – Confirm unfaded error-free performance Some of these tasks may not be possible or practical within a bench test environment due to the nature of the remote connectivity of peripheral equipment. However, it is good practice to perform as much as possible in this environment to minimize field/installation time and troubleshooting efforts. Detailed performance measurements are usually not required for pre-installation, but can be easily performed at this stage and may be helpful for later troubleshooting efforts or for internal records. During troubleshooting, there may often be a point at which a back-to-back bench test should be performed to verify many or all of the above items, and in the case of a suspected faulty device, to help confirm the fault and determine which end of the system is at fault and in need of repair or replacement. 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Note: See Back-to-back Bench Testing for detailed instructions. RF Output Pow er Setting The maximum RF output power is bounded by one of the following criteria: • Maximum RF output power setting capability of the radio device • Maximum RF output power allowed/authorized by the local government regulations and for this specific device • Maximum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) of the transmission system allowed/ authorized by the local government regulations and for this specific device • Desired RSL to not exceed the maximum RSL allowed by the device • Desired RSL to minimize/eliminate interference into neighboring systems Note: In many cases the radio must be pre-configured for legal maximum output power before connecting to the antenna and transmission system. Instructions for adjusting the output power can also be found at the rear of this guide in the EIRP section for your region. Time Division Duplex (TDD) Factors The ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios are very dynamic, allowing the installer to optimize and control the performance of the radio system for the intended application. The following parameters must be carefully determined during the link engineering phase: • Link distance • Bandwidth • Mode (modulation) • The setting of the above parameters determines the following performance factors: • Ethernet throughput • System latency (delay) The following generalizations can be made with regards to these factors: • The shorter the link distance, the lower the latency, the higher the throughput • The higher the bandwidth, the higher the capacity • The higher the mode, the higher the capacity Link Orientation and Synchronization ( future feature) Link orientation refers to the Radio A and Radio B placement in your network. Link synchronization refers to using external or internal timing to coordinate multiple links. For every link, one end of the radio link must be configured as Radio A, while the other end is configured as Radio B. In single-link systems, it does not matter which end of the system is mounted at which end of the link, and there is typically no requirement for any link synchronization. 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Link orientation and synchronization are more important for networks with site(s) where there is more than one link of the same type or for sites using the same type of radio that are very close to each another at one or both ends. Configure collocated radio terminals for the same link orientation. That is, configure all radios at the same location as Radio A or Radio B. It can be advantageous to utilize link synchronization for collocated links. The radios allow the use of an optional GPS synchronization kit. This synchronization controls the transmitter and receiver frame timing so that collocated radios are transmitting at the same time and receiving at the same time. This can substantially reduce the opportunity for self-interference. Without synchronization, collocated radios may be transmitting and receiving at the same time, incurring near-end interference. Note: It is not always necessary to synchronize collocated radios. If antennas are substantially separated or blocked from one another and/or frequency separation tuning is used, the opportunity for near-end interference can be eliminated. When synchronization is required or desired, the following configurations are recommended: • For a two-radio network without GPS, use Internal Sync and connect a single cable between the SYNC/RSL ports on both radios (see RSL/Sync Connector for wiring instructions). • For a two-radio network using GPS sync, use two GPS kits or one GPS kit and the ExaltSync Collocation kit. Note: Refer to the ExaltSync Collocation Expansion Kit Quick Start Guide for instructions. • For a network of two or more radios using Internal Sync, connect using the ExaltSync Collocation kit. • For a network of two or more radios using GPS Sync, connect using one GPS kit and the ExaltSync Collocation kit, or connect using one GPS kit per link. Radio A/ B Configuration Use the Exalt GUI to configure the radio terminals for Radio A and Radio B orientation. Since many other parameters also need to be set, and the Exalt GUI is needed for these configurations, this is the best way to completely configure the radio terminals. Radios arrive from manufacture in default configuration, orientated as Radio B and configured as shown in Table 1. Table 1 Factory default settings Parameter ExtendAir eMIMO Series Radio Settings Frequency 5GHz models: 5788 MHz (5600 or 5785 MHz if the regulatory domain does not allow 5788 MHz) 4.9GHz models: 4965 MHz Transmit Power +4dBm Link Distance <10 miles Bandwidth 10 MHz 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Table 1 Factory default settings (Continued) Parameter ExtendAir eMIMO Series Radio Settings Mode Mode 1 Link Security Key 000000000000 Administration Password password User Password password IP Address 10.0.0.1 IP Mask 255.0.0.0 IP Gateway 0.0.0.0 Ethernet Interfaces Auto-negotiation Note: In many cases, the system design will not be identical to the factory default configuration, and in some cases, these differences prohibit the installation of the radio. If at all possible, obtain a computer and configure the radio terminals using the browser-based GUI. See Exalt Graphical User Interface (GUI) for details. Radio Synchronization (future feature) The radio synchronization feature improves the performance of Exalt radios operating in the same frequency band and that are collocated (such as in repeater and hub configurations). Radio synchronization ties radio systems together to operate off of a common clock system, ensuring that all radios simultaneously transmit and receive, and thus eliminating near-field interference issues and related radio system coupling. Synchronization Modes Synchronization can be implemented using either one or multiple GPS sources, or using the radios 'Internal' clocking signal. The following general configurations can be accommodated: • GPS sync, using one GPS source (sold separately) per link. Ideal for links where the radios are not collocated on the same rooftop or tower. • GPS sync, using one GPS source (sold separately) to drive timing to multiple collocated links, using one or more sync distribution accessories (sold separately). The ideal solution for networks that have multiple links at one location, but also have more nearby radio links that are not collocated, including repeaters and multi-link backbones. • Internal sync, using one radio to synchronize another collocated link. This can be accomplished with a simple cable and proper radio configuration, and ideal when only 2 radios are collocated. • Internal sync, using one radio to synchronize to multiple collocated links. This can be accomplished with one or more sync distribution accessories (sold separately). The ideal solution for networks that have multiple links at one location and do not have other nearby links or repeaters and multi-link backbones. 208363-001 2013-05-01 10 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Virtually any combination of hubs and repeater sites, star configurations, and/or backbones can be implemented with synchronization. It is typically necessary or ideal in each configuration to match the following parameters on every radio in the network: • Link Distance – Match to the longest distance link in the network. • Frame Length – Match to the lowest frame length to optimize total system latency or match to a highest frame length to optimize user throughput. Choose an intermediate value to compromise between latency and throughput. • Mode – It is desirable, but not always necessary, to match the mode for all collocated links. • Bandwidth – It is desirable, but not always necessary, to match the bandwidth for all collocated links. For complex networks, an Exalt engineer should review multi-link networks before deployment as several factors can optimize the network for desired performance. Note: When GPS Sync is enabled, link initiation typically takes 1 to 3 minutes to allow for the radio to properly synchronize to the available GPS satellites. Figure 3 illustrates two separate radios benefiting from synchronized GPS sources. Figure 3 Synchronized GPS sources Figure 4 illustrates the recommended synchronization method for two links that share a common site at one end of each link. Using internal sync, a cable can be connected between the two radios to accomplish sync. No GPS receiver is required. This approach cannot be used for more than two collocated radios. 11 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Figure 4 Internal Sync for two collocated radios When more than two radio links terminate from the same site, use the sync distribution accessory, ExaltSync Collocation Kit (sold separately) to connect more links to the Internal Sync source, as shown in Figure 5. Use one kit to connect one Sync Source radio to up to three additional links. Each additional kit expands up to three additional links. Figure 5 Internal Sync for more than two collocated radios This approach can also be used using an Exalt GPS source for synchronization, instead of Internal Sync, as shown in Figure 6. This approach is recommended if there are other nearby sites that are not collocated or part of the connected network that need to be synchronized. Using one kit, a single GPS Antenna can synchronize up to 4 collocated links. This can be expanded 3 additional links per additional kit. 208363-001 2013-05-01 12 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Figure 6 GPS Sync for more than one collocated radios At the far end of a synchronized link, if there are additional links to synchronize, use the Sync Out port of the Radio B to drive synchronization to the collocated radios. If there is only one additional radio, connect a cable from Sync Out to the Sync In port of the next radio, which should be configured as Radio A. Set this radio in the chain to Sync Recipient, as shown in Figure 7. If more than one radio is located at the secondary location, to drive synchronization for multiple Radio A terminals connect a ExaltSync Collocation Kit driven from the Radio B Sync Out port. Figure 7 Synchronization for radios in a chain Offset Timing For GPS implementations, manual control of offset timing is also allowed. This provides a means to delay the synchronization signal using a user-defined offset. This is helpful when Exalt radios are near other devices operating in the same frequency band that also use a timing source, such as GPS. The timing source to the Exalt radios can be adjusted to match the other radio system timing source mechanism. Offset timing can also optimize timing intervals for repeaters and backbones. As the distance of each link results in a unique factor for speed-of-light transmission of the radio signal, a subsequent radio can be delayed in timing so that the overall synchronization of radios is precisely maintained. Offset timing can be adjusted in 1-ms intervals, from zero to the radio’s frame length setting. For example, if using a 2-ms frame length, the offset timing can be set from zero up to 1999 ms. 13 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios When Sync is Lost If the primary sync source (for example, the GPS source) signal is lost due to equipment failure, a disconnected sync cable, loss of satellite link, or other condition, the radio is said to be flywheeling. When flywheeling, the radio’s clock is free-running off internal clocking and is no longer synchronized to any source. If the original sync source is restored to the flywheeling radio’s configuration, it attempts to synchronize to this signal without causing transmission interruption. When the flywheeling radio runs independently for long periods of time, the synchronization signal may be too far outside the capture range of the synchronization loop, and portions of transmission frames can be lost during this re-synchronization process. This condition is temporary and all interconnected radios will re-synchronize to the sync source, as necessary. If the flywheeling period is exceeded, the radio will stop transmitting. There is a setting for infinite flywheeling; however, long periods of flywheeling can cause interference with collocated radios. Virtual Local Area Netw ork ( VLAN) VLAN segments information in a single connection and creates multiple separate connections to secure information of one type or for one set of users from other information types or for other sets of users. Exalt’s VLAN communications implementation adheres to the IEEE standard 802.1q. In most cases, an Exalt radio acting as a Layer 2 bridge between two locations is only required to pass traffic with VLAN tagging. Without additional configuration, all Exalt radios support frame sizes in excess of 1900 bytes, which currently supports all defined VLAN packet sizes. Note: If an application only requires the transparent passing of VLAN traffic, disable the VLAN function. Link Symmetry (future feature) The default configuration of ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios provides 50/50 symmetrical throughput. The Tx/Rx Throughput Ratio setting enables programming different symmetry for applications where significantly higher throughput in one direction is anticipated such as for video broadcast, video aggregation, or remote server/storage WANs. Exalt does not recommend placing two links with asymmetry back-to-back in a serial configuration due to the TDD cycle of the radios. This configuration requires that one radio transmits in an overlapping time period while another radio is receiving. Physical antenna isolation and/or frequency channel spacing may accommodate this configuration. Asymmetry is, however, ideal for single-hop, multi-link hub/spoke architectures, or simply single independent links. Note: Asymmetry is only supported for a specific subset of system configurations that are optimized for typical asymmetric applications. TDD frame sizes of 2ms and 5ms are supported. The 5ms configuration maximizes the aggregate throughput of the radio for every situation. The 2ms configuration reduces latency to meet latencycritical applications, especially for multi-link circuit support. The following RF BW/mode combinations are supported for these configurations: • 5, 10, 20, and 40MHz in all bands The following Tx/Rx ratios are supported for these configurations: • 65/35 and 35/65 208363-001 2013-05-01 14 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios • 80/20 and 20/80 Note: GPS sync is supported with asymmetric settings, but in addition to the other requirements for sync, all radios tied to sync must be set with matching ratios. Simple Netw ork Management Protocol ( SNMP) ( future feature) The Exalt radios primarily use a browser-based graphical user interface (GUI) for radio configuration and management, as described in Exalt Graphical User Interface (GUI). In addition, a command line interface (CLI) is provided for serial and/or Telnet access, as described in Configuration and Management. SNMP is often used for management of larger networks as described here. Use SNMP to manage networked devices and execute the following functions: • GET: Obtain information from the device, such as a configuration setting or parameter. • SET: Change a configuration setting on the device. • TRAP: The device proactively informs the management station of a change of state, usually used for critical alarms or warnings. One feature of the SNMP implementation is that system configuration changes do not take effect using the SET command. Instead, groups of configuration settings can be preconfigured for global change, and a single ‘Save’ (Commit) command implements all changes. When some parameters are changed, a link may drop and/or management control lost. MIB files allow many parameters to be set at once, allowing only a temporarily dropped link or management control issue. The opposite end radio can be quickly reconfigured, with little downtime for the link and management control. The save (Commit) command is similar to the Update button. Dropped links or management control issues do not occur with every parameter change. Many configuration changes do not impact traffic or management access. Exalt radios utilize SNMPv3, a high security version of SNMP, to ensure secure access to and storing of management data. The SNMPv3 security string matches the admin and user passwords. Passwords must be eight characters or longer. Some models also have legacy SNMP support for customers requiring SNMPv1 and/or SNMPv2.

Mechanical Configuration and Mounting The ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios are environmentally sealed units intended for deployment outdoors. The device must be deployed within an ambient temperature range as specified, and with non-restrictive airflow around the chassis. The rc models can also be mounted in an enclosure or indoors. The same airflow and temperature conditions apply. All integrated antenna models can be mounted behind a window if window losses are considered in the link budget calculation. Note: Unless rated for outdoor use by the manufacturer, the power injector and power supply must be placed indoors or in an enclosure. Provide proper clearance for all cables and connectors attached to the device. Note that for the rc models, the RF cable connector may require significant clearance for the bend radius of the coaxial cable assembly. All RF connectors, cables, and adapters must be rated for operation within the radio’s frequency range. RF connector losses must be accounted for within the link engineering design and output power settings. Mounting the System Use the mounting system supplied with each terminal for wall or pole mounting (Figure 9). The pole mounting kit can accommodate a pole 2–5"/5–13cm in diameter. Install the mounting system first, and then affix the radio to the mount. The radio can also be affixed to the mount, and the entire assembly (including radio) mounted. THESE PHOTOS WERE FROM THE SE TRAINING PPT Figure 9 Pole-mount examples For rc models, the mounting solution is a very simple single bracket, using the same pole-mounting band clamps with the same specifications. For the integrated antenna model, it is critical to mount the entire device at the predetermined location for proper path clearance to the link end. Ensure that there is adequate space around the mounting system and the radio to allow for antenna alignment for both azimuth and elevation adjustments. Note: Mount the rc models as close as possible to the antenna to minimize the length and associated losses of RF cabling. 19 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Radio Ports and Indicators This section provides a brief overview of the connectors, controls, and indicators on the device. Details about each item are in other sections of this document. Figure 10 shows the connectors on the ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios.

Power The radio requires a 802.3af or 802.3at compliant PoE power source within specifications. Note: Read this section completely before applying power. Terminating the RF Connectors (rc models) Before applying power, the RF connectors must be properly terminated into a 50-Ohm load. If this is not performed, the radio may be damaged by simply applying power. Also, there are human safety factors to consider regarding potentially harmful RF radiation. The following lists a few simple ways to achieve proper termination: • Connect a 50-Ohm coaxial termination device to the RF port of the radio. The termination must be rated to 1W (or more). Example(s) include: – Broadwave Technologies P/N 552-200-002, or similar • Connect the complete transmission system. That is, the RF cabling including the antenna. The cabled antenna provides a proper termination for the RF output. • Connect a fixed (or a series of fixed) 50-Ohm attenuator(s) to the RF connector, either directly or at the end of an RF transmission line. The attenuator must be at least 30dB as specified at the operating frequency and rated for a minimum of 1W input power. Examples include: – Broadwave Technologies P/N 352-103-xxx – Bird 2-A-MFN-xx – JFW Industries 50FP-xxx-H6-N Cover any unused connector with the connector cap and apply the weather-seal tape. Both cap and tape are included in the accessory kit. Ethernet Lightning/Surge Protection To provide for human safety and for the safety of connected network equipment, it is highly recommended to place a weatherproof lightning suppression device at the egress point where the CAT5e or CAT6 cable(s) enter the building, shelter, or cabinet. 21 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios To protect the radio equipment, install a weatherproof lightning suppression device near the radio for all connected CAT5e or CAT6 cables. Any Ethernet surge protection device used for the PoE port must be rated for 802.3af use, and for 1000BaseT operation. For the ETH2 and ETH3 connections, any 100BaseT rated surge protection device can be used. Use a short CAT5e or CAT6 cable for the connection between the radio and the first arrestor. Use bulk outdoor-rated CAT5e or CAT6 cable for the longer run between arrestors, and indoor- or outdoor-rated cable with a standard CAT5e or CAT6 termination for the connection from the egress arrestor and power injector. If the radio arrestor is deleted from the design, Exalt resellers can supply a longer cable with the proper weatherproof connector for the connection from the radio to the egress arrestor. Note: Use only outdoor-rated UV-resistant CAT5e or CAT6 cable. This cable must have an outer diameter between 0.25"/6.35 mm and 0.31"/7.87mm. Belden 1300A is recommended. Securely hand-tighten all connectors on the ODU to ensure a weatherproof seal. Antenna/Transmission System This section provides guidance to mounting and connecting the RF transmission system, which consists of the antenna, RF cabling, and RF lightning arrestors. Consult the manufacturer’s instructions for proper mounting, grounding, and wiring of these devices, and for definitive direction. These manufacturer’s instructions supersede any information in this section. See Table 7 and Table 6 for lists of supported antennas. Initial Antenna Mounting The antenna must be an exact model recommended by the path and site planning engineer(s). Mount the antenna at the proper height, mast/mounting location and polarization orientation as determined by the path and site planning engineer(s). The model type, location, and orientation of the antenna is critical with respect to achieving proper path clearance, as well as to mitigate external or selfinterference from nearby or collocated systems operating in or near the same frequency band. Warning! Mount the antenna in a restricted area and in a manner preventing long-term human exposure to the transmitted RF energy. To comply with FCC and Industry Canada regulations, the minimum safe distance from the antenna for continuous human exposure is 10'/3m. The antenna structure must be secure and safe with respect to the mounting of the antenna, transmission system weight, radio housing, and the combined weight of any personnel that may climb or attach to the structure. The combined weight of items and forces on the structure must be carefully considered in the design and construction of the structure. This must include the weight bearing on the structure in the highest wind conditions possible in the region, and with respect to all objects affixed to the structure. If additional objects are affixed to the structure in the future, it may be important to evaluate both the mechanical impact of these planned additions (with respect to wind and weight loading), as well as the potential impact to RF interference and frequency coordination (if additional radio equipment is anticipated). This is especially important if future equipment is likely to operate within the same frequency band. 208363-001 2013-05-01 22 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Once the antenna is mounted, cabled, and aligned, your goal is to never require modification. This prior planning is important in the path and site planning stages and in construction of the antenna structure. Follow the antenna manufacturer’s instructions for mechanical mounting of the antenna. Ensure that there is enough room around the antenna for alignment activities (moving the antenna in vertical and horizontal arcs), and for the RF transmission line to connect to the antenna connector unobstructed and within the specified bend radius requirements of the transmission line. At this point, the antenna mounts should be fully secure to the structure, the feed of the antenna securely mounted to the antenna (if the feed is a separate assembly), and the azimuth and elevation adjustments not completely tightened in preparation of the antenna alignment activity. It is a good practice to connect the transmission line to the antenna connector as early in the process as possible, to reduce the opportunity for debris or moisture to enter either the antenna connector or the transmission line connector. Use a connector cover or other temporary measures to ensure that the connector is kept clear. Take extra care if the antenna is installed during inclement weather to ensure that no moisture gets inside the antenna connector at any time. Now the antenna can be aimed in the general direction required for the link. Use a compass, a reference bearing, binoculars or any other similar device to point the antenna in the direction (generally) of the far end radio, and then slightly tighten the azimuth and elevation adjustments so that the antenna maintains its general position and is safe to be left without additional securing. Refer to the Exalt white paper, Antenna Alignment, for more information on antenna alignment techniques. Transmission Line from Antenna to Radio Most installations use a very short length of coaxial transmission line for the connection between the antenna and the radio device. Coaxial transmission line can either have a solid or braided shield. Solidshield cables are more resistant to external signal coupling and interference, but are generally stiffer than braided cables. Consult the path or site engineer(s) to ensure that the proper materials are chosen for the installation and that all factors were considered. Generally, the larger the diameter of the transmission line, the lower the loss. So for longer runs of transmission line, larger diameter cables are highly advised. However, at every frequency, there is a maximum diameter cable that supports the operating frequency. Verify the specifications. This should is determined in the path and site planning process. Table 4 lists representative samples of transmission line types recommended for the Exalt Digital Microwave Radio. 23 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Table 4 Recommended transmission line Manufacturer Type Description Loss at 4.9GHz Loss at 5.3GHz Loss at 5.8GHz Andrew LDF4-50 1/2-inch solid shield 5.6dB/100' 5.7dB/100' 6.0dB/100' Andrew LDF4.5-50 5/8-inch solid shield N/A 4.4dB/100' 4.7dB/100' Times LMR-600 1/2-inch braided shield 6.8dB/100' 6.9dB/100' 7.3dB/100' Times LMR-900 5/8-inch braided shield N/A 4.6dB/100' 4.9dB/100' RFS LCF12-50J 1/2-inch solid shield 5.5dB/100' 5.6dB/100' 5.9dB/100' RFS LCF12-58J 5/8-inch solid shield N/A 4.5dB/100' 4.8dB/100' It is critical that the transmission line and antenna be capable of supporting the same type of connector, or easily adapted. It can be important to minimize the number of connectors and adapters, and it is ideal that they match directly without adaptation. In most cases, transmission line allows for N-type male connectors and antennas have N-type female connectors. If possible, connect the primary transmission line directly to the antenna. It is desired to have the fewest possible pieces of transmission line in the system, to minimize losses and points of failure from connectors. The antenna can typically accommodate a direct connection if planned in advance. Use a 90º adapter for the connection to the antenna, if necessary, but confirm that all connectors and transmission lines are properly specified for the operating frequency with minimum loss, proper impedance (50 Ohm) and proper VSWR characteristics. Transmission line connector termination is a critical element of the installation. Many ‘factory built’ RF transmission lines do not provide the proper characteristics for proper transmission, despite their published specifications, often due to the fully or semi-automated process of factory termination, which may not have considered the frequency of your system. When buying pre-terminated transmission line, it is strongly advised to obtain the documentation of test measurements on the connected transmission line showing that the loss characteristics and VSWR are within the specified limits specifically at your operating frequency. In addition to factory-built transmission line, selfterminated transmission line can suffer the same issues. Caution: Always follow the manufacturer’s termination process EXACTLY, and only use the manufacturer’s authorized tools and connectors for a given transmission line type. The manufacturers of transmission line typically offer instruction and certification for transmission line termination, and may also provide videos illustrating the process. There is no amount of extra care, education, precision, and effort that can be overstated for this process. There is often a need for a small excess of transmission line near the antenna to accommodate both the need for extra slack as the antenna is loosened and moved for the alignment process, and to accommodate a drip loop for the transmission line and the initial transmission line securing hardware and grounding near the antenna. In addition, the transmission line is typically very stiff, and can provide undue pulling force on the antenna or radio connector. Take care to align the cable with the connector so that it does not provide any torque or strain on the connector. Consult your transmission line manufacturer for the proper transportation, hoisting, securing, and grounding process. Always be very mindful of the entire length of transmission line to ensure that the transmission line is never twisted, kinked, or over-bent beyond the specified bend radius. Once a 208363-001 2013-05-01 24 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios transmission line is over-bent or kinked, it will likely never recover its specified characteristics, even after straightening, and will often be completely unusable. The opposite end of this primary transmission line typically terminates at the radio connector. If using a long transmission line (in excess of 3'/1m), an RF lightning arrestor is recommended to protect the radio equipment. As soon as practical, weatherproof the connected ends of the transmission line to the antenna and lightning arrestor and radio. This process should be delayed as long as possible to ensure that all systems are working properly before applying the weatherproofing. Once weatherproofing is applied, it may have to be removed for testing or installation modification. With this in mind, if the installation is occurring during inclement weather, take extra care at all times to ensure that no moisture enters any connector at any time. If moisture is suspected to have compromised the antenna or transmission line, it may render those devices useless without any means for remedy except for full replacement. Cap and weatherproof the second antenna connector on the radio if using a single-polarity antenna. Indoor Mounting On rare occasions the antenna can be mounted indoors behind a window. In these cases, there would not be a need for drip loops or an RF lightning arrestor. Use a very short transmission line connected directly between the antenna and the radio mounted nearby. The weatherproofing process can also be omitted. RF Lightning Arrestor RF lightning arrestors provide a direct path to ground for lightning strikes that may couple to or directly hit the outdoor transmission system or antenna structure. The RF lightning arrestor prevents any associated voltage and current from entering the radio equipment, other equipment, or humans. The following lightning arrestors are examples of proper devices for Exalt Digital Microwave Radios: • Polyphaser AL-LSXM • Citel PRC5800 Mount and ground the RF lightning arrestor in accordance to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Place it as close as possible to the radio equipment. Minimize the distance to the radio to lessen the opportunity for lightning to couple to or strike the unprotected section of transmission line (if any). Consult a qualified electrician or installer in all cases of grounding and lightning arrestor implementation. Antenna Alignment Antennas must be installed at both ends of the planned link to commence precision alignment. Refer to the Exalt white paper, Antenna Alignment. The ExtendAir eMIMO Series radios have an integrated antenna. Antennas are typically aligned using the radio hardware for precise alignment. However, there are many very useful tools available to aid in this process, inclusive of devices specifically designed for the purpose of aligning antennas. Some examples are: • XL Microwave Path Align-R • Teletronics 17-402 Use of these devices may be extremely advantageous as compared to using the radio, because they employ many unique facilities to aid in this process. Using these tools also makes it possible to align 25 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios the antennas before the radio equipment is delivered. However, many installers successfully use the radios as the means for antenna alignment. The following are the primary facilities when using the radio to align the antenna: • RSL voltage connection using a volt meter (recommended) Insert the included adapter into the GPS connector on the radio housing and the opposite end connected to a volt meter. The RSL test point DC voltage is inversely proportional and numerically calibrated to the received signal level. The voltage rises as the antennas are less in alignment, and falls as antennas are more in alignment. The voltage measurement corresponds to the received signal level in measurements of dBm (a negative number for RSL measurements). For example, an RSL of -60dBm yields an RSL voltage measurement of 0.60VDC; an RSL of –45dBm measures 0.45VDC. • Audio alignment buzzer Enable the audio alignment buzzer through the Exalt GUI. When enabled, the radio enclosure emits a sound. The pitch rises when higher (better) levels of RSL are achieved. Align the antennas until the highest pitch is accomplished. The tone is continuous when the two ends of the radio system are in communication. Otherwise, the buzzer beeps. • Exalt GUI RSL reading indicates the current RSL in dBm. Note: There is a slight delay in RSL readings in the GUI as the RSL levels change. In this case, fine alignment can be done in small adjustments allowing a small gap of time so that the impact of the adjustment on the GUI display catches up to real time. Note: Only use the browser-based GUI for antenna alignment if there are no other means available. If this method is required, refer to Exalt Graphical User Interface (GUI). The RSL reading can be read on a PC or any handheld computing device that supports an HTML browser and Ethernet connectivity. 208363-001 2013-05-01 26 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Configuration and Management This section describes the command line interface (CLI) and Exalt graphical user interface (GUI). Telnet into the Command Line I nterface ( CLI ) ( future feature) Use a Telnet connection to access the CLI in the Exalt Digital Microwave Radios. Use the CLI to set key parameters on the system. Connect to the Radio in a Telnet Session Make the Telnet connection to the radio through the Ethernet port. Use Windows and perform the following steps: Open a command prompt or MS-DOS prompt (Start>Run). Type C:\>Telnetat the command line: The default IP address is 10.0.0.1 Telnet Use Telnet when prompted to enter the administration level login and password. The default administration login is admin and password is password. It is recommended that the default administration password be reset by performing a radio reset. Figure 11 shows the three menu choices available after log in. Figure 11 CLI main menu The following selections can be made on all screens: • 0 = back to previous screen • 9 = help • Ctrl+\ (control and backslash keys) = exit session 27 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Exalt Graphical User I nterface ( GUI ) The Exalt GUI is the primary user interface for configuring and troubleshooting the radio and radio system. A computer or hand-held device with a conventional HTML browser and Ethernet port is required. Microsoft Internet Explorer is the preferred browser. Firefox, Chrome and Safari are also supported. Preparing to Connect If the radios are new, both radios are preconfigured as Radio B, and have the same IP address. The initial priority is to configure one radio to Radio A and assign different IP addresses, unique to each radio. There are two ways to change the IP address: Reset the radio to the critical default factory settings. Connect to the GUI using the default IP address (10.0.0.1), and change the IP address through the GUI interface. Note: To connect to the radio’s Ethernet port and use the GUI interface, the accessing computer must match the radio’s IP address subnet. It is therefore necessary to either change the radio’s IP address through the CLI to match the subnet of the computer, or change the computer’s IP address to match the subnet of the radio (such as, a computer IP address of 10.0.0.10 if trying to connect to a radio set to the factory default IP address of 10.0.0.1). To configure a radio as Radio A, connect to the GUI and change the configuration, as discussed in this section. Make Connections It is recommended that one radio at a time be configured, on a bench, before taking the radios to the field for installation: • Terminate the RF connector with a 50-Ohm termination or a fixed attenuator of at least 20dB (see Power). Note: Do not connect the radios in a back-to-back configuration. If the radios are set to their factory default settings, both radios are configured as Radio B and cannot communicate. Both radios also have the same IP address, which causes IP address conflicts Note: The IP address subnet of the accessing computer must match the radio’s IP address subnet to connect using Ethernet. Once connected to the radio using Ethernet, log in to the Exalt GUI. Log I n Use the following steps to log in to the Exalt GUI. Open a browser window. Microsoft Internet Explorer is the recommended browser. Netscape, Mozilla, and Firefox are also supported. If there are issues with your browser, please report it to Exalt Customer Care. You may be required to use a different browser to immediately overcome issues. Type the IP address of the radio in the address bar. 208363-001 2013-05-01 28 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Figure 12 Initiating the browser connection The following window displays after pressing the Enter key or clicking the Go button in the browser window.

Use the steps in the Quick Start Guide included with the radio. A summary of the items that need to be configured are: • Radio IP address for each end. – Each end must have a different IP address and cannot match the accessing computer’s IP address or any address assigned if radios are part of a larger network. – It may be required to change the IP address of the accessing computer after changing the IP address of the radio so that the IP subnet matches. – The radio IP address is listed on the Administration Settings Page. If all other parameters are still configured at their factory default settings, the radios can now be connected back-to-back to verify that the link is communicating and perform any other desired tests. See Back-to-back Bench Testing for test information. Note: Click the Save button to save changes on any page. Also on all pages until saved, changed fields display with an orange background. Most configuration parameter settings are intuitive. The following link parameters must match at both ends for the link to communicate: • Encryption Key (Administration Settings Page) • Bandwidth (System Configuration Page) • Subnet Mask (Administration Settings Page) 208363-001 2013-05-01 30 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Note: Changing any of these parameters causes a temporary loss of link. The GUI displays a warning and provides an opportunity to cancel changes. Navigating the GUI The GUI provides the primary interface for all configuration and management.

The following lists unique or important parameters. • Radio Default: Resets ALL configurations to their default settings. Note: On the far-end radio when you click the Radio Default button, the link to the radio is lost because the only configurations that are not reset are the IP addresses. • Fill in the date and time fields as soon as practical. Events are captured with time/date stamps, which is valuable information for troubleshooting. • Reset the admin and user passwords. These passwords should not match. If the admin password remains at the factory default setting, it provides an opportunity for random reassignment by a network-connected user. – 33 The new password must be entered twice. If the passwords do not match and the Update button clicked, the password is not changed and remains set to the previous password. 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios • Enter the license key provided by Exalt to access extended features. Click Update to accept the changes and enable the new features. License keys are issued by radio serial number, so ensure that the license key used was issued for this particular radio. • Access List Filtering: Enable this option to limit Radio A and Radio B connections to only provisioned radios (that is, those provisioned through the peer MAC address). For Radio B, access filtering is mandatory. Enable Access List Filtering for the Radio A to allow any Radio B to connect. • Peer Mac Address: When Access List Filtering is enabled, Radio A only connects to the Radio B identified in the MAC address. • Encryption: Not applicable when Open is selected. WPA2 (AES) is the available authentication protocol, which provides additional data security for the wireless link. This feature requires that both radios have a valid AES encryption key, simply insert a matching hexadecimal string on both terminals and enable the Access List Filtering option. 208363-001 2013-05-01 34 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios File Management Page This page allows the administrator to upload and download files to and from the radio. The following types of files can be uploaded: configuration, license, and radio firmware. When uploading Configuration Files, current configuration parameters are immediately overwritten, and the unit automatically reboots. When uploading radio firmware files, the file is placed into reserve memory space. Figure 18 File Management page The following types of files can be downloaded: radio firmware, configuration, and license key. Use the following steps to download a file. Select the radio button for the type of file to download (Radio Firmware, License Key, or Configuration). Browse to the file location, and select the file. Click the Upload to Radio button and wait for the radio to prepare the file for download. For some file downloads, a second page/link appears. The file download and upload is useful when configuring several radios with similar settings. A copy of the configuration file can also help restore radio settings. In addition, a copy of the Exalt default configuration file is helpful to restore the radio to factory settings. Note: Do not change the name of any download file. The configuration file must be named config.nv. To keep track of multiple configuration files, use a folder naming system or temporarily rename the file, however, it must be named config.xml before it can be uploaded to a radio. Never change radio firmware file names under any circumstances. If copying the same configuration file into multiple radios, take as some parameters will match and that may be undesirable. However, it may be easier to change just a subset of parameters rather than every parameter. The following parameters can cause problems or confusion if they match at each of a link: • 35 Radio Name 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios • Endpoint Identifier • IP Address The following parameters can match at both ends of the link: • Link Name • WPA2 (AES) License Key (although each link should be different) • Admin and User passwords • Bandwidth • RF Frequency Note: In all cases, the radio reboots after a new file is selected. This places the radio out of service for a short time. 208363-001 2013-05-01 36 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios System Configuration Page This page contains several critical system parameters. Figure 19 System Configuration page Most entries on this page are self-explanatory. The following lists unique or important parameters. • Disable the Radio Transmission Status parameter to stop transmitting to the far-end radio. • Set the Endpoint Identifier parameter to either Radio A or Radio B. • Select the Band 5 GHz ISM or 4.9GHz parameter radio button. Note: 4.9GHz band operation is restricted in most countries to Government or Public Safety use. Consult with local regulatory restrictions prior to operating in this band. • Select the Channel parameter with the value assigned to the radio license. For 5.8GHz ISM operation, select Auto Select ISM if desired to scan for the ISM frequency with the least noise or interference. The Radio B always searches for the Radio A. This parameter must match at both ends of the link. • Select the Bandwidth parameter as determined in the design/engineering stage. This parameter must match at both ends of the link. 37 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Note: Changing Bandwidth will temporarily interrupt traffic. The Channel and Bandwidth parameters must match at each end. Adjust the far-end radio first, and then the near-end radio. Changing Bandwidth changes the radio’s threshold. A narrower bandwidth has better threshold performance and improved interference immunity, therefore if changing to a wider bandwidth, there is an opportunity that the link may be lost and unrecoverable through GUI control. Check the available fade margin to determine if the impact to threshold and increased bandwidth is acceptable to maintain the link and the desired performance. If the link is lost due to increasing the Bandwidth parameter, travel to the radio location(s) may be required to reset the value. • Set the Antenna Type parameter as used in the installation. • Set the Antenna Gain parameter to match the installed transmission system gain (that is, the gain of the antenna minus all losses between the radio and the antenna). • Set the Radio Transmit Power Limit parameter to the designed level (dBm). The professional installer sets this value or dictates the value of this setting to the system administrator following the system design and local regulations. In many cases, this value must be set to a proper value to comply with legal restrictions. Improper values can result in liability to the user and/or installer. Note: Changing Radio Transmit Power may temporarily interrupt traffic. Small changes in output power do not normally interrupt traffic, but larger changes may. – Do not adjust the Radio Transmit Power parameter to a value higher than is legally allowed. – Do not adjust the Radio Transmit Power parameter lower than the link budget and fade margin can afford. Note: The link may be lost and unrecoverable through GUI control. If the link is lost due to reduction of Radio Transmit Power, travel to the radio location(s) may be required to reset the value. • Set the Link Distance parameter to optimize radio performance for the maximum link distance. Shorter distances provide better reaction times for error packet retransmissions, which allows better throughput (given the same RSL level). Note: Do not select a range less than the actual link distance. This will cause failure and collisions on transmission between the radios. 208363-001 2013-05-01 38 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios VLAN Settings Page VLAN is disabled as the default setting for Exalt radios. The Exalt radios still pass VLAN and nonVLAN traffic across the link, but do not examine the VLAN traffic or act upon it. Enable VLAN using the Exalt GUI for expanded VLAN support. Figure 20 VLAN Configuration page Note: Once a VLAN is configured or modified and the Update button clicked, the management connection will likely be lost. The management connection to the radio must follow the configuration to the assigned VLAN. After configuring and enabling the management VLAN on the radio, reconfigure your network’s management access to match the settings on the radio. VLAN configurations are maintained even when VLAN is disabled. That is, the VLANs can be configured and the configuration saved, even though they are not active until VLAN is enabled. Use the following methods to restore the management connection if a mistake was made assigning the management VLAN and access cannot be restored: Reset the radio to the critical factory defaults. The following VLAN configurations are provided: • Gigabit (PoE/ETH1) • Fast-Ethernet (ETH2 and ETH3) 39 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Antenna Alignment Page This page aids with antenna alignment.

Exalt Digital Microwave Radio systems are designed by Exalt’s expert engineers with extensive experience through multiple generations of microwave radio design. These new-generation systems contain extensive diagnostic tools, alarm indications, and troubleshooting aids. And, as compared to other systems in their class, are easier to install, maintain, and troubleshoot. The GUI provides information to aid in troubleshooting. Contact Exalt Customer Care for further assistance with issues with your Exalt radio and with suggestions on how the radio and documentation can be improved. General Practices Troubleshooting a microwave radio link can be a complex task. Approach troubleshooting as a process of elimination, and first determine which portions of the system are operating properly. In a vast majority of cases, failures or poor performance of microwave links is attributed to something other than the microwave radio hardware. In this respect, the back-to-back bench test (see Back-toback Bench Testing) is very important to determine if radio hardware is operating properly and eliminate many variables in the troubleshooting process. If a back-to-back bench test fails, then the radio hardware is either broken or the radios are improperly configured. Upgrade the radio to the most current release of firmware, and/or reset the radio to its critical factory settings, following the quick start guide instructions and those in Configuration and Management, helps to confirm if configuration issues cause failure. The most common issues with microwave radio links are: • An improperly terminated RF cable • Multipath propagation • RF interference • Path obstruction • Misaligned antenna • Faulty antenna • Improper grounding • Insufficient link margin in the design/implementation • Moisture in the transmission system (antenna feed and/or RF cable) If the radio link has been operating without issues and is exhibiting new poor performance behavior or becomes completely inoperative, the troubleshooting process should pay close attention to any conditions that may have changed between the time when the system was working without issue and the time when the issues started. Also, it can be helpful to compare some performance parameters of the system before and after the presence of issues. Often the source of the issues can be determined by thoughtful consideration of changes, such as: • Changes in weather, including high winds • Changes made to the radio equipment, transmission system, or connected equipment • New radio systems or electronic equipment the nearby radio or transmission system 63 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios • New construction nearby either end of the link, or along the path • Tree growth, flooded fields, or changes in rivers/lakes along the path Verify that configurations are set as follows: • RF matches at each end of the link • Bandwidth matches at each end of the link • Link distance matches at each end of the link • TDD Frame Length matches at each end of the link • Endpoint Identifier is different at each end of the link (one end Radio A, one end Radio B) • Ethernet interfaces are enabled, as desired • Link security key matches at each end of the link Typical Indications of Issues In many cases, microwave radio users do not notice changes or degradation to the radio system until the radio system fails completely or becomes highly errored or significantly intermittent. However, regular management of the radio system can help indicate changes in performance that have not yet impacted user performance, but may impact performance at a later date if left unchecked or unaddressed. The administrator can use this as an opportunity to be proactive and monitor the radio link performance regularly, watching for unexplained or unexpected changes in performance and trends in performance changes. Most importantly, monitoring radio system RSL over time indicates the performance of the radio system. Address any long-term drop in RSL and erratic or unsteady RSL. Some RSL changes are expected and weather patterns and the related multipath can cause dramatic RSL changes resulting in system outage. However, that outage should not occur at a significantly greater rate than the designed long-term performance. Consult the path design engineer for more information about link reliability expectations and anticipated RSL deviation. In addition, regular inspection of the transmission system (RF cables and antennas) and paying close attention to changes along the path, such as construction or tree height, or new microwave radio installations nearby, can be extremely helpful and proactive. When link performance is very poor, alarms on the radio front panel and within the radio’s management system indicates particular failures. Consult this manual for more information on the specific alarms and diagnostics, or contact Exalt Customer Care for assistance. Exalt Customer Care is primarily motivated to determine if the radio hardware is faulty and require return for repair, and to help execute an effective and efficient repair and return process for radio terminals believed to be faulty. However, Exalt Customer Care provides advice regarding the total radio system and RF path engineering and environment, and advises on troubleshooting. End users should first contact the installer and/or designer of the system. In many cases, an in-depth understanding of RF design is required, and on-site analysis and special test equipment, may be necessary. Compared to phone support from Exalt Customer Care, troubleshooting is much more expeditious if the professional installer and/or link designer examines the system and reviews the management information in the GUI. In turn, if the professional installer and/or link designer contacts Exalt Customer Care, the process to rectify the system is much more expedient due to the in-depth knowledge related to the implementation and the RF environment. 208363-001 2013-05-01 64 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Improper RF Cable Termination Improper RF cable termination is a very common problem. In many cases, this is a problem that occurs during installation and is not a problem that suddenly appears. However, if cables are moved or flexed, especially near the termination points, and radio errors, changes in RSL, or other performance issues occur, this is a certain sign of this issue. Another relatively easy method to test for this condition is to decrease the output power of the radio system (at each end, one end at a time). A poor RF cable termination may be reflecting too much RF energy back into the radio system, and reducing output power reduces the reflected energy at a faster rate than the transmitted energy towards the far end. Be careful not to reduce the output power to the point where the radio’s threshold is reached. Typically, a reduction of just 3 to 6dB is enough to determine if this is the issue. If the reduction of output power clears the error condition, this is the likely cause. Use a reflectometer or meter that can read VSWR at the operating frequency to identify poor terminations as well as poor antenna feeds. Note: The Praxsym VSWR meter is an excellent tool for this purpose. Multipath Propagation Multipath propagation is a term that encompasses changes to the RF path, such as reflections and/or refraction, causing partial or complete destruction of the radio signal, and thus excessive bit errors and/ or system outages. Rapid changes in temperature, inversion layers, humidity, air pressure, water evaporation, as well as standing water or moisture on objects along the path are all examples of changes that can cause multipath propagation. New building construction near either end of the path or along the path can cause new reflection characteristics. If your system has been operating without issue and is suddenly experiencing issues that are symptomatic of a certain time of day or related to change in climatic events or some of the external factors listed above, this is likely the cause. Consult a professional RF path engineer in these cases. Often, minor repositioning of the antennas at either or both ends can reduce or eliminate these problems. RF Interference RF interference is usually indicative of another radio system nearby either end of your radio system or aimed towards one or both ends of your radio system – usually at or near the same frequency and usually with a similar signal level. Other forms of RF interference also exist, such as electronic equipment placed close to the radio chassis or transmitters that couple onto the cabling or grounding system of the radio. Microwave ovens and wireless communication devices used near the equipment or cabling are examples of electronic equipment interference. 65 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Note: Exalt Digital Microwave Radios operate in license-exempt bands. Microwave ovens, wireless Internet devices and cordless phone technology may also use this frequency band. It may be necessary to separate the radio chassis, cabling system and antenna from these devices. RF interference, like most other causes of problems, is indicated by significant bit errors and/or system outages. One means to determine presence of interference is the use of a spectrum analyzer that covers the same range as the radio system. A professional RF engineer can use a spectrum analyzer to locate sources of interference, measure these sources, and determine potential remedies to take to operate in the presence of interference. If a spectrum analyzer is not available, the radio’s RSL port can help determine RSL levels of interfering signals. By turning the far-end radio off, the residual RSL measured by the radio indicates the level of interference seen by the radio. It is possible that interference levels below that which can be measured still have an impact on the radio system – especially if the radio system has low fade margin or is using a high order modulation. Exalt Digital Microwave Radios provides considerable flexibility to tune to different frequencies across the bands within which they operate. This is the easiest method to use to try to avoid existing interference. In addition, the occupied bandwidth of the radio can be reduced. This, along with retuning, can be very effective, however throughput is reduced. Repositioning the antenna and/or changing polarization, or upgrading the antenna to a higher gain, and/or using a high-performance antenna, are all secondary means that can be used. It may be necessary to perform combinations of both radio changes (retuning, occupied bandwidth reduction) and antenna system changes (position, polarization, upgrade). Path Obstruction A path obstruction is defined as an object, such as a building or tree, impeding the proper path of the radio system. If the system design was proper at the time of installation and issues arise at a later date, an updated path profile and survey may be necessary to identify changes in path clearance. Misaligned Antenna At the time of initial installation, it is critical that the antennas at each end are properly aligned and that the designed RSL is achieved. However, antennas may become misaligned due to high winds, changes in the guy-wiring systems keeping the antenna mast stable, or loosening of the antenna mounting hardware. A reduction in the RSL of the link is symptomatic of this condition, but this condition is not the only condition that results in a reduction of RSL. However, if conditions occur where the antenna alignment may be suspected, the mechanics must be inspected and the antennas realigned. Faulty Antenna (connectorized antenna rc-models only) A faulty antenna is rare, but is still a possibility. In some cases, the mechanics of the antenna feed can get moisture inside, or a bad or weak connection in the pin and connector structure of the antenna may occur. A VSWR measurement of the antenna connection can be made to verify this condition. Improper Grounding In addition to being a potential human safety issue, improper system grounding is a somewhat common condition that can cause continuous bit errors or bit errors when metal objects come in 208363-001 2013-05-01 66 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios contact with the radio, transmission system, or racking system. If touching the radio causes errors, grounding is the cause. It can be difficult to identify grounding problems, but a professional electrician can normally inspect a system and identify if there are deficiencies in the grounding system. Insufficient Link Margin Ideally, the link was designed with enough link margin (fade margin) to allow for multipath propagation and atmospheric fading and still remain reliable. In some cases, link margin is compromised by economic factors, such as using low-cost RF cabling or lower-cost antennas that have less gain or deficient performance compared to higher cost transmission system components. In some cases, there may be antenna size restrictions that forced the design to not have the desired amount of link margin. If the link was designed with poor link margin, there are likely many cases of bit errors and outages. The antenna system and transmission line can be upgraded to help reduce this. If the link design was installed with sufficient margin, but RSL is reduced, the remaining link margin may no longer be enough to maintain a reliable link. The causes of RSL reduction were previously described, but are usually due to new path obstruction(s) or antenna misalignment due to wind or mechanical factors. The antenna height or location can be changed to overcome new obstructions. Realignment of the antenna, and/or improvement to mechanical structures can help overcome antenna misalignment. Moisture in the Transmission System If the connectors on cables and antennas and egress junctions are not properly weatherproofed, moisture can get into the transmission system and cause significant error conditions and erratic performance. In many cases, the transmission system must be replaced. A VSWR meter is one means to identify such issues. Conduct physical inspections often. If changes to the weatherproofing (such as cracking) are noticed, replace the weatherproofing before leakage occurs. 67 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Back-to-back Bench Testing Use back-to-back bench testing to test the radio before installation, pre-configure the radio and connected equipment before installation, or in the troubleshooting process to identify if the radio hardware is the source of a system issue. It is a critical process, and often required or highly desirable for any installation or troubleshooting exercise. This section describes how to properly configure the radio hardware and accessories for a proper back-to-back bench test. For radio testing, there are two types of back-to-back configurations: Basic test (test general operation) Specification performance verification Basic Test The basic test is a simple test of radio functionality. It verifies that the radios are properly configured to communicate to one another, and verifies general radio performance as operational. For the basic test, the following items are needed: • Radio pair • Powering source • RF interconnect cable(s) (any length – short is best) • Fixed or variable attenuation, between 60 and 90dB (note: attenuation for basic test does not to be calibrated or precise) • Computer/terminal with either serial or Ethernet port (helpful, but not necessary) – If no computer is available, use the temporary hardware configuration key or DIP switch, depending on radio model (see Initial Configuration and Back-to-Back Bench Test) Connect the items as follows: Connect attenuation and (known-good) RF cable(s) between radio pair, shown in Figure 28. Configure one radio as Radio A; the other as Radio B Power on radio pair Figure 28 Basic back-to-back bench test configuration After connecting and powering on, observe the front panel LEDs to verify that the LINK and STATUS LEDs are green. If so, the radios are communicating and all radio-related alarm conditions are normal. 69 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios It can be beneficial to have a computer to verify configuration in case of red LEDs or to pre-configure the radio as desired for operation. Follow the instructions in Configuration and Management. Specification Performance Verification The specification performance verification is a more detailed test that allows you to verify that the radio’s output power and threshold specifications are being met. This is typically a test that would only be performed in a troubleshooting scenario, but can be performed before installation to provide a detailed record or ensure radio performance before installation. This test is identical to the basic test, but in place of the fixed attenuation, it requires the use of calibrated variable attenuation, or a set of calibrated fixed attenuators, or a combination of both, adding to a total attenuation value of 120dB, as measured at the operating frequency of the radio. In addition, a volt meter or computer is also required. Connect the system as shown in Figure 28, using the combination of fixed and variable attenuation between the radio’s RF ports. Connect the volt meter to either radio’s RSL test point and associated reference ground connection. In this test, it is desirable to use pre-tested RF cables, known to be good, and the insertion loss is known at the operating frequency. If the cables are short (6'/2m or less), you can estimate the loss, including connectors, to be less than 1dB each. The estimate of cable loss is critical to the overall confidence of the measurements made in this test. There are two critical specifications that can be tested in this configuration: • RF output power • Radio receiver threshold To measure transmitter output power, simply insert any value of attenuation between the radios between 60 and 90dB. Ensure that both RF output power settings are at maximum. Use the volt meter to measure RSL in both directions. The RSL measured value should match the appropriate value according to the inserted attenuation, such as: RSL = RF Output Power – cabling losses – total attenuation Verify output power by adjusting output power using the Exalt GUI (in administration mode) and evaluate the corresponding change to the RSL measurement. For threshold testing, the key is to insert a measured amount of loss that is close to, but not exceeding the radio’s specified system gain. System gain is the difference between RF output power and receiver threshold. At your selected modulation and bandwidth settings, determine the specified threshold performance, and choose a value of attenuation (including cable losses) that adds to roughly 5 to 15dB less than the system gain. For example, if the threshold for your measurement is -85dBm, the output power is +27dBm, so the system gain is 112dB. Choose a value of total attenuation in the range of roughly 100–105dB. Once this attenuation is inserted, verify RSL readings as in the first step, and then, using the GUI, reduce radio output power in 1dB steps until the receiving radio (the one whose output power not being adjusted) Link LED turns from green to yellow. This indicates that threshold has been reached. At this point, verify the equation for system gain using the new output power level setting and verify that the threshold performance is meeting or exceeding the published specification. Note: Due to the variation of measurements and accuracies involved in this test, you may read a measurement that is 1dB to as much as 2dB off of the expected value. It should be of no concern unless the value is more than 3dB worse than expected. 208363-001 2013-05-01 70 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios General Compliance and Safety The usage of radio transmission devices is subject to specific regulatory requirements governed by regional legislation.

For 5 GHz radios, the following standards were applied: • Radio: EN 301 893, EN 302 502 • EMC: EN 301 489-1, EN 301 489-17 • Safety: EN 60950-1, IEC 60950-1 The following CE mark is affixed to the product: EU WEEE Exalt is committed to meeting the requirements of the European Union’s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive. The Directives require producers of electrical and electronic equipment to finance the take-back for re-use or recycling of their products placed on the EU market after 13 August 2005. Exalt products that are within the scope of the Directives are labeled with a crossed-out "wheelie-bin" symbol as required by the Directives. This indicates that the product was placed on the market after 13 August 2005 and that end-users should segregate the product from other wastes at end-of-life. The WEEE Directives are being implemented in each of the 28 EU and European Economic Area (EAA) countries through national legislation. This has resulted in considerable variation in the detailed requirements across the EU, many of which require presence in the EU. As a result, Exalt’s WEEE compliance approach is to require the distributors and/or resellers in the EU to comply with each country’s national legislation by registration of the distributor or reseller as the producer and for the reseller/distributor to carry out and fulfill the legislative requirements of each national compliance scheme. Below is the crossed out wheelie bin symbol as required by the WEEE Directive. 87 208363-001 2013-05-01 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios EU RoHS RoHS is the acronym used to refer to the European Union (EU) Directive 2002/95/EC on the Restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. Hazardous materials are those chemicals and substances that are legislatively, market, or customer banned or restricted for use in products and/or manufacturing. There are six (6) RoHS substances: lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), hexavalent chromium (Cr+6), polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenylethers (PBDE). Other countries may be introducing legislation that results in similar restrictions of hazardous substances. Many Exalt products will continue to use lead-based solder under the exemption allowed for network infrastructure equipment. Small amounts of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE can also be found in a few electrical and electrical components. 208363-001 2013-05-01 88 Exalt Installation and Management Guide ExtendAir eMIMO Series Digital Microwave Radios Exalt Limited Hardware Warranty Software License and RMA Procedures Agreement THIS IS AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND EXALT COMMUNICATIONS, INC.
