BAT familyRelease 03 08/10 151 System Planning1.1 WiFi devices1.1.1 WiFi access pointsWithin the AP / AC offer are several access point devices, providing a choice of:X1 or 2 radios inside the deviceXthroughputXenvironmental ruggedness/ingress protectionXconformance to government-mandated bandwidth restrictionsDevices rated for IP67 are often used for outdoor installations because of their ability to withstand rain, snow and dust storms. IP40 devices are designed primarily for indoor use, but they can be used outdoors when they are installed inside weather-resistant IP67 enclosures.Effective throughput for a WiFi device is heavily affected by overhead considerations, particularly power loss due to the distance between the access point and its power source. Often the real throughput over a WiFi link is only half of the specified nominal throughput.Each radio that operates in an access point requires an antenna.1.1.2 WiFi clientsA client is a radio device that resides in or is connected to a station. The client allows the station to communicate wirelessly with an access point. The PCMCIA card in a laptop that enables the computer to operate wirelessly is a client, and the laptop is the station. Other types of stations might be moving vehicles such as forklifts or I/O modules used in a machine such as a conveyor belt. A client enables its station to operate wirelessly and may enable the station to roam through a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) environment without loosing its network connection by switching to the next, strongest signal in the access point array.
16 BAT familyRelease 03 08/101.2 Frequency BandsAP / AC devices communicate in the radio spectrum. They operate in defined bandwidths, and they often share that bandwidth space with other devices. The requirements of your application will determine the frequency band in which you choose to operate and the types of AP / AC devices to select.1.2.1 The ISM BandsThe IEEE manages a series of specifications for local area networking called the 802 family. WiFi devices fall under four 802.11 standards:The 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands are reserved for industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) equipment, which uses the radio spectrum for transmitting and receiving data. They are called the ISM bands. Devices operating within the bandwidths shared by AP / AC devices are usually unlicensed.Working in the 2.4 GHz BandSignals in the lower-frequency 2.4 GHz band (802.11b, 802.11g, and sometimes 802.11n) can propagate through obstacles such as wood, untempered glass and drywall better than 5 GHz signals. Therefore lower frequency transmissions can travel longer distances and are sometimes needed in locations where clients are separated from access points by walls, windows, high shelves, etc.The 2.4 MHz bandwidth is such that network throughput often suffers because of device density in the band. Other ISM devices, such as microwave ovens and cordless phones, operate in the band and can take space in the band away from the AP / AC network.Another consideration that can make communications slow, particularly when a WLAN requires many access points for coverage, is the limited channel capacity of the 2.4 GHz band. Each access point in the WLAN operates on a channel that you assign it in the configuration process. As a roaming client traverses the WLAN from access point to access point, it should maintain uninterrupted communication.Standard Frequency Band Transmission Rate802.11a 5 GHz up to 54 Mb/s802.11b 2.4 GHz 5.5 Mb/s11 Mb/s 802.11g 2.4 GHz up to 54 Mb/s802.11n 2.4 and 5 GHz up to 300 Mb/sTable 3: WiFi Frequencies and Speeds
BAT familyRelease 03 08/10 17The 2.4 GHz band provides only 13 channels (only 11 are available in North America), To reduce interference from channel overlap, adjacent channels in the WLAN should be separated by at least 25 MHz. Most users choose to run 3 channels, channels 1, 6, and 11. The illustration below shows an ideal coverage plan where a series of AP / AC access points broadcasting with omnidirectional antennas are arranged by channel to limit the channel overlap.This coverage illustration is considered an ideal WLAN layout, but quite often it cannot be installed so cleanly. Walls inside a building or geographical barriers outdoors often deflect the radio wave transmission. The floor plan in your building, the terrain and landscape in an outdoor application, and the presence of other non-WiFi noise in the band need to be anticipated as part of a network plan before your equipment is purchased, then tested thoroughly as part of the installation process. Schneider Electric recommends that you commission a professional site survey (an independent study of your site requirements) to prepare for the installation of a WLAN (see page 37).Working in the 5 MHz BandOne clear advantage that a signal in the higher-frequency 5 GHz band (802.11a and sometimes 802.11n) has is the availability of multiple channels that do not overlap. In this radio spectrum, at least 8 channels can be supported cleanly. Another advantage is that the band is not populated by legacy ISM devices, so interference is much less likely.There are some disadvantages though. Signals in the 5 MHz band operate well when there is a clear and unobstructed line of sight. They do not propagate well through physical obstacles such as interior walls and doors and outdoor traffic and terrain. Also, some client devices, such as the built-in wireless adapters in many laptops, operate only in the 2.4 GHz band.111661161111111116
18 BAT familyRelease 03 08/10All of the AP / AC access point devices are dual-band, i.e., they operate in both the 2.4 MHz and 5 MHz frequency bands. However, you need to be aware of any bandwidth restrictions at your site when you select your antennas because several of them are band-specific.Here is how the access points perform in terms of transmission rate:1.2.2 Government Regulation of the ISM BandsGovernments control and regulate the allotment of radio spectrum in their airspace. In Europe, for example, band allocation is managed by the European Radiocommunications Office (ERO), and in the United States and Canada by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).If your AP / AC network is being designed to operate in the United States or Canada, different access point modules are needed than if your network is located in Europe, Asia, or Australia:1.2.3 Anticipating Radio Wave BehaviorBecause WiFi relies on radio bands for data transmission and reception, you need to expect some network behaviors that differ from those on the wired network. These behaviors include:Xthe ways that the transmissions propagate through physical impediments and the atmosphereXthe unbounded nature of radio signalsXthe inherent half-duplex nature of radio transmission and receptionPropagation can be hindered by both visible and invisible impediments.Visible impedimentsVisible impediments include walls, doors, windows and stacked material inside a building. If you have chosen to operate at 2.4 GHz in order to get the signal to propagate through a wall, you also need to know what is behind the wall. A steel reinforcing beam or a mortar and cement fireblock (a physical wall, not a network firewall) will deflect (or block) the radio signal more severely than you might have expected if you assumed you were passing through drywall.If you intend to propagate the signal through windows, you need to be aware of the characteristics of the glass. 2.4 GHz signals can pass through standard window glass relatively cleanly, but tempered or bullet-proof glass severely deflects the signal.If you are planning an outdoor implementation of WiFi, you need to consider the existing terrain over which the signal will pass. If you need to send a signal over a hill or over another building, you need to use an access point and antenna as a bridge. If you are traversing an area that has an unobstructed line of sight between the two points in your link,
BAT familyRelease 03 08/10 19make sure that the line will remain unobstructed as long as you need your network. A signal may work well in the winter when the trees are bare, but it may suffer significant degradation when the leaves bloom. If you are traversing an open field, you need to know whether a new building will be constructed between the two ends of the link.You also need to know that some form of power supply is near each AP / AC access point. If the power is to be delivered over the Ethernet (PoE), remember that the access point must be within 100 m (109 yd) of the Ethernet cabinet.Invisible impedimentsInvisible impediments are the radio signals that compete with your WLAN in the same bandwidth. This competition is more common in the 2.4 MHz band because so many other ISM equipment uses the frequency band. Realize that if your business is involved in microwave work, for example, a 2.4 GHz WLAN will need to compete for bandwidth in the same frequency band. This is also true for Bluetooth and some other unlicensed radio devices. Boundless nature of radio transmissionsAnother key difference between a wired and a wireless network is the fact that wireless radio transmissions will not be contained by the walls of your building. Unlike a wired network where signals travel over a defined path, radio signals bounce off obstacles and penetrate through the boundaries of your facility to the outside world.AP / AC devices are equipped with powerful authentication and encryption features that can help protect your data from unauthorized listeners and traffic. Refer to the AP / AC Configuration and Aministration Guide for details.Half duplex communicationCommunications between a AP / AC access point and its clients or between multiple access points is half-duplex. One end of the link must wait while the other transmits, resulting in slower communications. Wireless should not be used as the sole or primary means of control in a time-critical application.Because communications are via broadcast, messages are sent to all participants in the network. The overall transmission capacity of the AP / AC access point is therefore shared by all the participants.

BAT familyRelease 03 08/10 373.3 Putting components together (BAT-F)To protect the exposed contacts of the components from dirt, the individual system components must be connected in a dry and clean area. Seal unused ports with the cover caps supplied.Note: Connectors are not electrical isolating devices.Therefore, first plug the connector into the power supply plug, then switch on the power supply.Note: Protection class IP67 is only achieved if all the connected components also fulfill protection class IP67.Cover unused connectors with the cover caps supplied.Only connect plugs and other components that fulfill protection class IP 67, and that are certified for a temperature range from -30 °C to +55 °C (-22 °F to +131 °F).3.4 Selecting the location for mounting/setting upSet up/mount the device in a location where the ambient conditions comply with the specified listed in the technical data.3.5 Mounting outdoors (BAT-F)Note: Set up the antenna close to the device. Use the shortest antenna cable possible to minimize attenuation.Note: Cable connections are subject to corrosion in outdoor installations.Seal the outdoor cable connectors with water- and weather-resistant tape.3.5.1 Lightning protectionNote the safety instructions for lightning protection (see the datasheet for lightning protection or the WLAN Outdoor Guide).If possible, avoid installing in locations with a high risk of lightning. This applies in particular to installing antennas.The antenna should not be the highest point in the area. If this is the case, use a separate lightning conductor to divert lightning strikes.
38 BAT familyRelease 03 08/10WarningLightening protection is an indispensible part of your outdoor antenna installation. It protects your sensitive electronic devices from transient or electrostatic discharges to the antenna.WarningAntennas placed outdoors must be within the catchment area of a lightening conductor. Make sure that there is lightening protection equipotential bonding for all conductive systems leading from outdoors. When implementing your lightening protection concept, make sure you meet the requirements of standards VDE 0182 and IEC 62305.Hirschmann recommends using the Hirschmann BAT Protector as a lightening protection (see on page 69 “Accessories“).WarningInstalling this lightening protection element between an antenna and a BAT-F does not alone provide sufficient protection against a lightening strike. The BAT Protector lightening protection element only works as part of a comprehensive lightening protection concept. If you have any questions relating to this, contact a qualified dealer.Note: The requirements of EN61000-4-5, surge test on power supply lines, are only met if a Blitzductor VT AD 24V, article No. 918 402, is used.Manufacturer: DEHN+SÖHNE GmbH+Co.KG, Hans Dehn Str.1, Postfach 1640, D-92306 Neumarkt.WarningConnect the external antenna, the housing ground and the lightening protection to the same ground system, e.g. to the building ground.For further information on lightning protection, see the “WLAN Outdoor Guide”.3.5.2 Pole mountingThe BAT-F devices are suitable for pole mounting with the additional BAT-F pole mounting set (see on page 69 “Accessories“).The BAT-F pole mounting set is designed for:XPole diameter: 37 mm to 60 mm (1.46 in to 2.36 in)XMaximum permitted wind speed: 220 km/h (136 mph).

The device automatically selects the power supply. Note: Switch over to a redundant power supply may not be seamless. If the power supply currently active is interrupted and another power supply takes over, the device may reboot to activate the redundant power supply.3.11.1 5-pin M12 connector (BAT-F)A 5-pin M12 connector (A coding, supplied) is used to connect the power supply.On delivery, the connectors are sealed with cover caps.The housing of the M12 frame connector is electrically connected to the functional ground (FE) ( ) and to the metal housing of the device. The supply voltage is electrically isolated from the housing.121
48 BAT familyRelease 03 08/10Note: For the BAT54-F, the voltage supply is exclusively via PoE (see on page 48 “Power over Ethernet (PoE) - power supply via the LAN cable“). 3.11.2 4-pin terminal block (BAT-Rail)The supply voltage is connected via a 4-pin terminal block with a snap lock.Redundant power supplies can be used. Both inputs are uncoupled. There is no distributed load. With redundant supply, the power supply unit supplies the device only with the higher output voltage. The supply voltage is electrically isolated from the housing.WarningFor safety reasons the devices have been designed to operate at low voltages. Thus, they may only be connected to the supply voltage connections and to the signal contact with SELV circuits with the voltage restrictions in accordance with IEC/EN 60950-1.3.11.3 Power over Ethernet (PoE) - power supply via the LAN cableHirschmann Wireless Routers are prepared for the PoE (Power over Ethernet) procedure and conform to the 802.3af standard. PoE-capable network devices can be supplied with power via the LAN cable. This makes it unnecessary to have a separate power supply for every base station, thus considerably reducing the work involved in the installation.
