Hardware OverviewChapter 2Trapeze MP-620 Installation Guide8Hardware OverviewThe MP-620 provides wireless access point services for clients in the local LAN area. It is housed in a weatherproof enclosure for mounting outdoors and includes its own brackets for attaching to a wall, pole, radio mast, or tower structure. The unit is powered through its Ethernet cable connection from a power injector module that is installed indoors.Radio Characteristics – The IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g standards use a radio modulation technique known as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), and a shared collision domain (CSMA/CA). The 802.11a standard operates in the 5 GHz Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII) band, and the 802.11g standard in the 2.4 GHz band. IEEE 802.11g includes backward compatibility with the IEEE 802.11b standard. IEEE 802.11b also operates at 2.4 GHz, but uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) and Complementary Code Keying (CCK) modulation technology to achieve a communication rate of up to 11 Mbps.The MP-620 provides a 54 Mbps half-duplex connection for each active channel.Package ChecklistThe MP-620 package includes:●One MP-620 Mobility Point (MP) access point ●One Category 5 network cable, length 164 ft (50 m)●One power injector module and power cord●Outdoor pole-mounting bracket kit●This User Guide●Optional: Two N-type RF coaxial cables●Optional: Outdoor wall-mounting bracket kit●Optional: Lightning protector for outdoor antennaContact Trapeze Networks if there are any incorrect, missing or damaged parts.

The power injector module does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE) based on the IEEE 802.3af standard. The MP-620 must always be powered on by being connected to the power injector module.
External Hardware FeaturesChapter 2MP-620 Overview11Power Injector ModuleThe MP-620 receives power through its network cable connection using power-over-Ethernet technology. A power injector module is included in the MP-620 package and provides two RJ-45 Ethernet ports, one for connecting to the MP-620 (Output), and the other for connecting to an MX switch or a local LAN switch (Input).The Input port uses an MDI (i.e., internal straight-through) pin configuration. You can therefore use straight-through twisted-pair cable to connect this port to most network interconnection devices such as a switch or router that provide MDI-X ports. However, when connecting the access point to a workstation or other device that does not have MDI-X ports, you must use crossover twisted-pair cable.Figure 3. Power Injector ModuleThe MP-620 does not have a power switch. It is powered on when its Ethernet port is connected to the power injector module, and the power injector module is connected to an AC power source. The power injector includes one LED indicator that turns on when AC power is applied.The power injector module automatically adjusts to any AC voltage between 100-240 volts at 50 or 60 Hz. No voltage range settings are required.Warning! The power injector module is designed for indoor use only. Never mount the power injector outside with MP-620 unit.Input OutputEthernet and Power to MP-620LED IndicatorAC Power Socket(Hidden)Ethernet from Local Network

Installation Requirements and RecommendationsChapter 3Trapeze MP-620 Installation Guide16●Number of MP access points required for adequate WLAN capacity in each coverage area●Detailed installation location for each MP access point●Settings for all MP access points in the WLAN(For information about installing RingMaster, creating and verifying a network plan, and generating an MP work order, see the Trapeze RingMaster User’s Guide and Trapeze RingMaster Reference Manual.)MX Switch RecommendationTrapeze Networks recommends that you install and configure the MX switch before installing an MP access point. If the switch is already installed and configured for the MP access point(s), you can immediately verify the cable connection(s) when you plug the cable(s) into the MP access point.(For information about connecting an MP access point to an MX switch port, see “Connecting an MP to an MX Switch” on page 25.)Weather ConditionsWhen planning an MP-620 installation, you must take into account any extreme weather conditions that are known to affect your location. Consider these factors:●Temperature — The MP-620 is tested for normal operation in temperatures from -33°C to 55°C. Operating in temperatures outside of this range may cause the unit to fail. ●Wind Velocity — The MP-620 can operate in winds up to 90 MPH and survive higher wind speeds up to 125 MPH. You must consider the known maximum wind velocity and direction at the site and be sure that any supporting structure, such as a pole, mast, or tower, is built to withstand this force.Caution! MP model MP-620 is designed to receive power only from a Trapeze-approved power injector. Connecting an MP access point to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) device that is not approved by Trapeze Networks can damage the equipment.
Installation Requirements and RecommendationsChapter 3Installing and Connecting an MP-620 Access Point17●Lightning — The MP-620 includes its own built-in lightning protection. However, you should make sure that the unit, any supporting structure, and cables are all properly grounded. Additional protection using lightning rods, lightning arrestors, or surge suppressors may also be employed. ●Rain — The MP-620 is weatherproofed against rain. Also, prolonged heavy rain has no significant effect on the radio signal. However, it is recommended to apply weatherproof sealing tape around the Ethernet port and antenna connectors for extra protection. If moisture enters a connector, it may cause a degradation in performance.●Snow and Ice — Falling snow, like rain, has no significant effect on the radio signal. However, a build up of snow or ice on antennas may cause a degradation in performance. In this case, the snow or ice has to be cleared from the antennas to restore proper operation of the unit.Ethernet CablingWhen you have determined a suitable location for the MP-620, you must plan a cable route from the MP-620 outdoors to the power injector module indoors. Consider these points:●The Ethernet cable length should never be longer than 100 m (328 ft)●Determine a building entry point for the cable●Determine if conduits, bracing, or other structures are required for safety or protection of the cable●For lightning protection at the power injector end of the cable, consider using a lightning arrestor immediately before the cable enters the buildingGroundingIt is important that the MP-620 unit, cables, lightning protectors, and any supporting structures are properly grounded. The MP-620 unit includes a grounding screw for attaching a ground wire. Be sure that grounding is available and that it meets local and national electrical codes.
Installation Requirements and RecommendationsChapter 3Trapeze MP-620 Installation Guide18MP Radio Safety AdvisoriesWhen you enable the MP radio(s) as part of MX switch configuration, the radios are able to receive and transmit radio frequency energy as soon as you connect the MP access point(s) to the MX switch, either directly or through the network. Radio Frequency ExposureFederal Communications Commission (FCC) Docket 96-8 for Spread Spectrum Transmitters specifies a safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC-certified equipment. When used with the proper antennas (shipped in the product), Trapeze Networks MP access point products meet the uncontrolled environmental limits found in OET-65 and ANSI C95.1-1991. Proper installation of the MP access point according to the instructions in this manual will result in user exposure that is below the FCC recommended limits.Additional Radio Safety AdvisoriesFor additional radio safety warnings, the Trapeze Regulatory Information document.
Installing an MP-620Chapter 3Installing and Connecting an MP-620 Access Point19Installing an MP-620The MP-620 includes its own bracket kit for mounting the unit to a 1.5 to 2 inch diameter steel pole or tube. The pole-mounting bracket allows the unit to be mounted to part of a radio mast or tower structure. The unit also has a wall-mounting bracket kit that enables it to be fixed to a building wall or roof when using external antennas.Hardware installation of the MP-620 involves these steps:1Mount the unit on a wall, pole, mast, or tower using the mounting bracket.2Mount external antennas on the same supporting structure as the MP-620 and connect them to the unit.3Connect the Ethernet cable and a grounding wire to the unit.4Connect the power injector to the Ethernet cable, a local LAN switch, and an AC power source.Mounting the UnitYou can mount the MP-620 using either the pole-mounting bracket or the wall-mounting bracket. Use one of the following procedures.Using the Pole-Mounting BracketPerform the following steps to mount the unit to a 1.5 to 2 inch diameter steel pole or tube using the mounting bracket:1Always attach the bracket to a pole with the open end of the mounting grooves facing up.2Place the U-shaped part of the bracket around the pole and tighten the securing nut just enough to hold the bracket to the pole. (The bracket may need to be rotated around the pole during the alignment process.)
Installing an MP-620Chapter 3Trapeze MP-620 Installation Guide20Figure 5. Attaching the Bracket to the Pole3Use the included nuts to tightly secure the MP-620 to the bracket. Mounting on Larger Diameter PolesIn addition, there is a method for attaching the pole-mounting bracket to a pole that is 2 to 5 inches in diameter using an adjustable steel band clamp (not included in the kit). A steel band clamp up to 0.5 inch (1.27 cm) wide can be threaded through the main part of the bracket to secure it to a larger diameter pole without using the U-shaped part of the bracket. This method is illustrated in the following figure.Figure 6. Attaching the Bracket Using a Steel Band ClampAttach bracket to pole with mounting grooves facing upSteel Band Clamp

Wall-Mounting Bracket2Position the bracket in the intended location and mark the position of the three mounting screw holes.3Drill three holes in the wall that match the screws and wall plugs included in the bracket kit, then secure the bracket to the wall.4Use the included nuts to tightly secure the MP-620 to the bracket. Connecting External AntennasWhen deploying an MP-620 access point, you need to mount external antennas and connect them to the unit. Typically, access point operation requires a 2.4 GHz antenna.Perform these steps:1Mount the external antenna to the same supporting structure as the MP-620, within 3 m (10 ft) distance, using the bracket supplied in the antenna package.2If you are installing the optional lightning protector for an outdoor antenna, perform the following steps. Otherwise, skip to step 3.Mounting Grooves

Cables and Pinouts43BCables and PinoutsThis appendix describes the wiring and pin assignments for the cables and connectors that can be used with the MP-620.Twisted-Pair Cable AssignmentsFor 10/100BASE-TX connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs of wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example, one wire might be green and the other, green with white stripes. Also, an RJ-45 connector must be attached to both ends of the cable. The following figure illustrates how the pins on the RJ-45 connector are numbered. Be sure to hold the connectors in the same orientation when attaching the wires to the pins.Caution! Each wire pair must be attached to the RJ-45 connectors in a specific orientation.Caution! DO NOT plug a phone jack connector into a power injector RJ-45 port. Use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.
Twisted-Pair Cable AssignmentsAppendix BTrapeze MP-620 Installation Guide44Figure 13. Pin Numbering on RJ-45 Connector10/100BASE-TX Pin AssignmentsUse unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable for RJ-45 connections: 100-ohm Category 3 or better cable for 10 Mbps connections, or 100-ohm Category 5 or better cable for 100 Mbps connections. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-pair connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).The RJ-45 Input port on the power injector is wired with MDI pinouts. This means that you must use crossover cables for connections to PCs or servers, and straight-through cable for connections to switches or hubs. However, when connecting to devices that support automatic MDI/MDI-X pinout configuration, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable.Table 9. 10/100BASE-TX MDI and MDI-X Port PinoutsPin MDI-X Signal Name MDI Signal Name1 Receive Data plus (RD+) Transmit Data plus (TD+)2 Receive Data minus (RD-) Transmit Data minus (TD-)3 Transmit Data plus (TD+) Receive Data plus (RD+)6 Transmit Data minus (TD-) Receive Data minus (RD-)4,5,7,8Not used Not usedNote: The “+” and “-” signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up each wire pair.1881
Twisted-Pair Cable AssignmentsAppendix BCables and Pinouts45Straight-Through WiringBecause the 10/100 Mbps Input port on the power injector uses an MDI pin configuration, you must use “straight-through” cable for network connections to hubs or switches that only have MDI-X ports. However, if the device to which you are connecting supports automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use either “straight-through” or “crossover” cable.Figure 14. Straight-Through Cable WiringCrossover WiringBecause the 10/100 Mbps port on the power injector uses an MDI pin configuration, you must use “crossover” cable for network connections to PCs, servers or other end nodes that only have MDI ports.
