Network Entry State Description
IDLE No link established.
SCANNING The client is scanning through a preconfigured list of frequencies and
bandwidths in search of a base station (BS) transmission. Once a BS is
detected the channel is scored according to the signal strength. The best
channel is then used for the network entry process.
DL_SYNC The client is synchronizing to the downlink (DL) channel. During this
phase the client identifies the correct cyclic prefix. DL synchronization
is obtained in case the client periodically receives the DL broadcast
messages (DL MAP and DCD) transmitted by the BS.

B.9 DEFINING ASSOCIATED BASE STATIONS
For the client to communicate with a base station, the specific base station can be defined at the client.
The base station is defined by a Base Station ID (BSID) value and a Base Station Mask value. The Base
Station ID value is the ID of the base station to which the client is registered (authorized to communicate
with). Multiple base stations can be defined for communication with the unit. This is typically relevant
in roaming scenarios.
This functionality ensures that the client establishes a communication link with authorized VIDA
Broadband Base Station(s).
The Base Station ID is a 48-bit long programmable (user-defined) field identifying the BS. The most
significant 24 bits are used as the operator ID (configurable). This is a network management hook that
can be used to restrict the client from performing network entry with a predefined base station or a group
of base stations.
The Base Station Mask is a 48-bit programmable (user-defined) field that identifies which bits of the Base
Station ID require a match to enable the client to associate with the BS.
Example for defining a single base station with which the unit can communicate:
Assume that the administrator wants to limit the network entry of a client to a specific BS with ID
=0xAB5050123456. To enable this, the following configuration must be performed:
• Base Station ID: AB 50 50 12 34 56
• Base Station Mask: FF FF FF FF FF FF (This is limited to one (1) specific BS.)
Example for defining multiple base stations with which the unit can communicate:
The administrator needs to set up a BSID plan in which it can identify, for example, three base stations
together. For example, it can divide the coverage area into zones of four BS. The zone number shall be
22 bits and the BS index within the zone shall be 2 bits. If the administrator wishes to limit the unit
access to zone #30, then the configured parameters must be:
• Base Station ID: AB 50 50 00 00 78
• Base Station Mask: FF FF FF FF FF FC
To define the base station:
1. Access the Advanced page (see B.7.1, Accessing the Advanced Page).
2. In the Advanced page, select Base Station ID Settings and click the Select button. The Base Station
ID Settings page appears.
MM-014720-001, Rev. A

communicate.
4. In the Base Station Mask field, enter the mask to identify which bits of the Base Station ID require a
match to enable the client to associate with the BS.
5. Click the Submit button. A confirmation message is displayed informing you that the new values
have been saved.
6. To apply the settings, you need to restart the unit. Perform the following:
a. Click the Back button to return to the Base Station ID Settings page.

C.3 MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT OPTIONS
C.3.1 Standard Grounding Kits - 3/8" Cable
The grounding kit diverts transient currents from lightning off the shielded transmission, communication,
or power lines to an earth grounding system to prevent damage to cable and broadband equipment. Each
broadband cable installation normally uses at least three grounding kits: one within six (6) inches of the
VIDA Broadband unit, one at the bottom of the cable prior to the horizontal run, and one just prior to the
cable entering the building or shelter.
Figure C-1: Grounding Kit
The recommended grounding kit, Andrew # 223158-2 (Tessco #493736), is designed for use with 1/4" to
3/8" cables. It has a 24" ground wire with a solid copper strap and a factory attached two-hole lug. The
kit complies with MIL-STD-188-124A and has been verified by independent labs to protect coax from

D.2.3 Ethernet Cat5e Equipment Plug Kit 1738607-1 Assembly
The following sections provide instructions for fabricating the Ethernet cable equipment end connection.
The assembly procedures are provided for reference and are superseded by any instructions provided with
the connector. Always read and follow any instructions provided by the connector manufacturer.
The solid wire Plug Kit (Tyco Electronics # 1738607-1), shown in Figure D-2, consists of an 8-position
Category 5e RJ-45 plug, load bar, and plug assembly. The load bar is used to hold the cable wires for
insertion into the RJ-45 plug. The RJ-45 plug must be terminated and then installed into the plug
assembly. The RJ-45 plug is held in the plug assembly by the locking tab. The cable fitting holds the RJ-
45 plug in the plug assembly and seals the plug at the cable end. When engaged, the connector is held
together by a locking mechanism (coupling ring and bayonet lock), which prevents accidental
disconnection. The engaged connector is sealed by the interfacial seal.
Figure D-2: Tyco/Electronics Industrial Circular Ethernet Connector Plug Kit (1738607-1)
D.2.4 Ethernet Cable - Equipment End Connector
Preparation Procedure:
Prepare the cable using the following procedure:
CAUTION
Reasonable care must be taken not to scrape or nick any part of the cable during the
stripping operation.
1. Slide the plug assembly (cable fitting end first) onto the cable. See Figure D-3, Detail A.
Figure D-3: Cable Preparation
MM-014720-001, Rev. A
123
2. Strip back the cable insulation and shielding approximately one inch exposing the twisted pairs .
Proper strip length is necessary to insert the conductors into the contact slots.
Insulation of individual conductors must not be cut or removed. This could result in
shorted or open connections.
3. Conductor pairs must be oriented side–by–side in the order shown in Figure D-4, Detail A. The end
of the cable jacket must be flattened so that the conductor pairs lay side–by–side.
4. Properly sequenced conductor pairs should extend into the cable jacket to the dimension given in
Figure D-4, Detail B, creating an oblong shape.
5. The conductor tips must be trimmed evenly to the dimension shown in Figure D-4, Detail C. Proper
orientation of conductors must be maintained.
Figure D-4: Cable Preparation Continued
6. The conductor pairs must be untwisted and arranged according to EIA/TIA T568B (defined in Figure
D-5). IT IS CRITICAL that the pairs are NOT untwisted inside the cable jacket.
When arranging conductor pairs, IT IS IMPORTANT that Conductor 6 is crossed over Conductors 4
and 5 as shown in Figure D-4, Detail C.

D.2.4.1 Termination
Terminate the RJ-45 plug to the cable end using the following procedure:
1. The conductors (maintaining arrangement) must be inserted into the load bar (oriented so that the
cable notch will align with the contacts) until the cable jacket rests against the cable notch. The
conductor twist must not enter the front of the load bar. The conductors must be trimmed evenly and
square with the front edge of the load bar to the dimension given in Figure D-6, Detail A.
2. The conductors must be retracted from the load bar so that the conductors protrude from the end of
the load bar to the dimension given in Figure D-6, Detail B. The top of the load bar must not be
deformed.
If the load bar is deformed, the conductor twist entered the front of the load bar.
3. The load bar (oriented so that the cable notch is aligned with the contacts) must be inserted into the
RJ-45 plug until it butts against the mating feature of the RJ-45 plug, and the conductors are bottomed
on the wire circuits. The cable jacket must be against the cable notch after the load bar is fully seated.
The conductors must not be exposed between the cable jacket and cable notch. The ends of the
conductors must be clearly visible through the front of the RJ-45 plug. See Figure D-6, Detail C.
If the conductors do not bottom on the wire circuits, they must be re-trimmed (after
removing the load bar/cable assembly from the RJ-45 plug), and re-inserted into the RJ-45
plug. If the conductors are too short, the cable must be re-stripped.
MM-014720-001, Rev. A

D.3.2 Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable
The fiber optic cable available from Tyco Electronics is intended for outdoor applications supporting
networking, data transfer, and phone lines. It includes a UV protected outer jacket, incasing two 62.5/125
um fiber multimode members. It is suitable for high-speed data applications, and supports 100Base-FX
high-performance data communications.
The cables consist of two multimode 62.5 um 100Base-FX fiber optic members with supporting
structure(s) to make the cable suitable for “supported” aerial and/or direct burial indoor/outdoor
conditions. The cables are terminated on both ends using IP67 industrialized LC connectors. These
connectors also include the protective mating caps for protection during cable installation and delivery.
Cables of 150 feet or longer shall be equipped with a pulling eye on one end for use during installation
The connector-cable interfaces have a pull-strength in excess of 45 lbs.
Table D-2 is a list of factory made fiber optic cables, with LC connectors, available from Tyco
Electronics. We do not recommend mating LC connectors to cables in the field, however, if this becomes
necessary, fabricate the LC plug termination according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

D.3.3 Fiber Optic Cable Demarcation
Once the outdoor fiber cable enters a protected area, a shelter or other indoor space, we recommend
creating a demarcation point to transition from outdoor fiber cabling to indoor fiber cabling. Tyco
Electronics provides one option for this task with the use of a rack mount panel and industrialized fiber
receptacles. The FM-016476 is a panel designed to mount into a standard 19-inch equipment rack and
has eight (8) available locations for holding the receptacles. The receptacles should be installed on the
panel such that the outdoor cable connects to the protected reverse-side of the panel. Indoor fiber cables
then connect from the front of the panel to the appropriate network device.
Figure D-19: XLC-MM 19" Rack Mount Panel, Part Number FM-016476
The receptacle assembly consists of the receptacle, a seal (panel gasket), and a panel nut, as shown in
Figure D-20.
