! !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!11!!!CHAPTER!ONE:!PRODUCT!OVERVIEW!!1.1!INTRODUCTION!!The WiMAX Outdoor CPE with router/Bridge functionality provides WiMAX connectivity to wired LAN networks. The CPE functions as a WiMAX gateway providing wired and wireless broadband Internet access services through connection with a WiMAX base station. The CPE is easily installed, utilizing Plug and Play functionality. In addition to web-based configuration, users can update firmware, simplifying installation and operation of the device. The CPE operates in Router mode and Bridge mode, both providing Internet access: 1.1.1!ROUTER!MODE!In Router mode, the internal IP address is acquired through dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP), static IP address, or PPPoE connection to the WiMAX base station. With enabled DHCP service, connected PCs and notebooks can acquire addresses from the CPE. A CPE deployed for operation in the router mode is basically used to provide a gateway to hosts on a local area network where the CPE hides all the traffic originating from the LAN behind its IP address which is assigned from the public domain, which makes the traffic appear as if it’s originating from the CPE itself. A router CPE implements Network Address Port Translation protocol (NAPT). 1.1.2!BRIDGE!MODE! This mode requires minimal presetting, with the internal IP address configured in the same or different network segment as the WiMAX base station. Bridging is a forwarding technique used in packet-switched computer networks. A CPE deployed for operation in the bridge mode is basically used to provide Ethernet service to enterprise customer locations. An enterprise location has a CPE with an Ethernet interface that could support one or many user hosts in the local network through a switch. CPE supports both IP and Ethernet CS. If Ethernet CS is supported by the network then Layer 2 connectivity can be established between SS and CSN. In this case, the network service to the enterprise customer is an Ethernet service from the core network all the way to the enterprise MS.
! !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!12!1.2!PRODUCT!OVERVIEW:!WIMAX!TRANSMISSION!FEATURES!!The following transmission features are supported by the WiMAX Outdoor CPE to provide stable and error-free connection. 1.2.1!DYNAMIC!ADAPTATION! Dynamic adaptation enables the CPE to maintain a high data rate while taking into account current link conditions like half-loss, interference, and seasonal foliage changes. The CPE monitors wireless link conditions on a burst-by-burst basis and uses dynamic adaptive modulation control, based on the measured CINR (Carrier/(Interference + Noise) Ratio), to regulate the link. 1.2.2!ADAPTIVE!CODING!!Each data transmission to or from the CPE contains extra, redundant information to reduce the errors introduced during transmission. A coding rate is the ratio of meaningful data to this extra padding (including error correction data). Adaptive coding enables the CPE to dynamically change the coding rate depending on this ratio. This CPE supports coding rates of 1/2, 2/3, and 3/4. 1.2.3!ADAPTIVE!MODULATION! Adaptive Modulation is used to specify what modulation technique is coded in to carriers composing orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols. This CPE supports QPSK, 16 QAM, and 64 QAM modulation techniques. 1.2.4!TRAFFIC!CLASSIFICATION! Traffic Classification categorizes transmission bursts by searching for pattern matches within the data. Classifications (for example, burst destination, source MAC address, and Virtual LAN tags) are defined and managed by the base station and transmitted to the CPE.

! !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!15!!!CHAPTER!TWO:!BASIC!INSTALLATION!! This chapter contains information on safety and installation procedures for the WiMAX Outdoor CPE. Follow the recommendations outlined in this chapter to ensure the correct operation of the CPE and reduce the risk of damage to the device or personal injury. 2.1!SAFETY!MEASURES! Before installing and using the CPE, take note of the following precautions: • Read all instructions carefully • Use only the Power over Ethernet adapter supplied • Follow all warnings and cautions in this manual and on the unit case 2.2!SYSTEM!REQUIREMENTS! Proper installation of the CPE requires the following minimal configuration: • A PC with a 10/100Base-TX adapter • A Web browser installed such as Microsoft Internet Explorer® version 8.0, Firefox®version 3.0, or Safari® version 3.0.3. !!!!!!!!
! !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!16! 2.3!Deployment!Models!This section describes the different deployment models supported by the CPE. 2.3.1!POINT!TO!POINT!(PTP)!!Point to Point deployment uses frequencies in the 5 GHz range and requires that the transmission medium is line of sight and tightly beamed from transmitter to receiver. The diagram shows a typical PTP scenario. !Figure 2: PTP Setup !!!
! !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!17!2.3.2!POINT!TO!MULTIPOINT!(PTM)!!Point to Multipoint (PTM) is an extension of PTP deployment where a greater number of receivers are deployed. This CPE supports both PTP and PTM deployment. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
! !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!18!2.4!HARDWARE!INSTALLATION!!This section describes the proper steps required to install the CPE, and to align the antenna. 2.4.1!CHOOSING!A!LOCATION!!To make optimal use of the CPE, a suitable location is important. The range of the CPE largely depends upon the position of the antenna. It is recommended that CPE is within 2Km from the BS and an overall survey performed, observing the following requirements, before installing the CPE: • Do not place the CPE near the floor or near metal objects, such as drain pipes. • The location must allow easy disconnection of power to the CPE if necessary. • Air must be able to flow freely around the hardware. • The CPE unit must be kept away from vibration and excessive heat. • The installation must conform to national and local electrical codes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
