Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide Trapeze Networks Installing and Connecting an MP Note: Before installing an MP, you might need to generate a network plan and an MP work order with RingMaster. (See RingMaster Network Plan and Work Orders below.) Installation Requirements and Recommendations For best results, follow these requirements and recommendations before installing a MP-632. RingMaster Network Plan and Work Orders If you are using RingMaster to plan your Trapeze Networks Mobility System installation, you might want to create and verify a network plan for the entire Trapeze network installation and generate an MP work order, before installing MP access points. A network plan and the MP work orders generated from it provide the following information about MP access point installation and configuration: ❑ ❑ ❑ Number of MPs required for adequate WLAN capacity in each coverage area Detailed installation location for each MP Settings for all MP access points in the WLAN MX Appliance Recommendation Trapeze Networks recommends that you install and configure the MX before installing an MP. If the MX is already installed and configured for the MPs, you can immediately verify the cable connection(s) when you plug the cable(s) into the MP. The MP-632 is designed to receive power only from a Trapeze-provided power injector. Warning! Weather Conditions When planning a MP-632 installation, you must take into account any extreme weather conditions that are known to affect your location. Consider the following factors: Temperature Operating an MP in temperatures outside of the supported range may cause the unit to fail. The MP-632 is tested for an ambient operating temperature range of -40°C to +55°C. Wind Velocity 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. The MP-632 can operate in winds up to 90 MPH and survive higher wind speeds up to 125 MPH. Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide Trapeze Networks Lightning The MP-632 has 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-632 weatherproof enclosure is designed to protect against dust, rain, and water jets. 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 Cabling When you have determined a suitable location for the MP, you must plan a cable route from the MP to the power injector module. Consider these points: ❑ ❑ ❑ ❑ The Ethernet cable length should never be longer than 100 m (328 ft) over CAT5, CAT5e, or CAT6 cable. 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 building. Grounding It is important that the MP-632 unit, cable, lightning arrestor, and any supporting structures are properly grounded. Be sure that grounding is available and that it meets local and national electrical codes. The MP-632 includes two grounding screws and a tubular lug for attaching a crimped ground wire. MP Radio Safety Advisories When you enable the MP radio(s) as part of MX configuration, the radios are able to receive and transmit radio frequency energy as soon as you connect the MP to the MX, either directly or through the network. Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide Trapeze Networks Radio Frequency Exposure Federal 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. Caution FCC Notice: For indoor operations: Devices will not permit operations on channels 120-132 for 11a and 11n/a which overlap the 5600 - 5650 MHz band. For outdoor operations: In order to meet new FCC, NTIA, FAA and industry restrictions to resolve interference to Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) systems used at airports, any outdoor device installed within 35 km of a TDWR location must be separated by at least 30 MHz (center-to-center) from TDWR operating frequency (as shown in the table below). Channels 120-132 and 5600-5650 MHz band are disabled on Trapeze outdoor products. Trapeze recommends that all operators and installers register the location information of the UNII devices operating outdoors in the 5470 – 5725 MHz band within 35 km of any TDWR location at the WISPA sponsored database (see http://www.spectrumbridge.com/udia/home.aspx). This database may be used by government agencies in order to expedite resolution of any interference to TDWRs. Procedures on how to register the devices in the industry-sponsored database with the appropriate information regarding the location and operation of the device and installer information can be found on the database.

The unit also has a wall-mounting bracket kit that can be used to install the unit on a building wall. You also have the option to mount the MP on a larger pole (up to 30.48 cm or 12-inch diameter) using the bracket kit and two metal band straps (straps not provided by Trapeze). Hardware installation of the MP-632 involves these steps: 1. Mount the unit on a wall, pole, mast, or tower using the mounting bracket. 2. Mount external antennas on the same supporting structure as the MP-632 and connect them to the unit. 3. Connect the Ethernet cable and a grounding wire to the unit. 4. Connect the other end of the circular DIN power cable to the XPS campus connectivity power supply. The MP-632 must only be used with a Trapeze-approved XPS-6201-OUT or XPS-6202-OUT power supply in order to prevent possible damage to the unit. Warning! 5. Connect the circular DIN Ethernet cable and prepare the RJ45 cable with the waterproof cap that is provided. The waterproof caps must be installed on the RJ-45 cable in order to prevent water damage. Power Ethernet Port 5GHz Antenna Ports Note: 10 Two separate cables are required for power and ethernet function on the MP-632. Both the cable dongles are RJ-45 on one end, but one cable is specific to power and one is specific to data. If the RJ-45 cable ends are swapped, the unit does not power up but is not damaged. If the RJ-45 cable ends are correctly inserted, the unit functions normally. Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide Trapeze Networks Mounting the Unit You can mount the MP-632 using either the wall-mounting bracket or the wall-mounting bracket combined with the pole-mounting bracket (brackets are provided for both a 3.81 to 5.08 cm (1.5 to 2-inch) diameter steel pole or tube or a larger size pole or tube). Use one of the following procedures. Using the Pole-Mounting Bracket Perform the following steps to mount the unit to a 3.81 to 5.08 cm (1.5 to 2-inch) diameter steel pole or tube using the mounting bracket: 1.

Warning! The operation of antenna ANT-5007-OUT is not allowed in India. Multiple External Antenna Support The MP-632 supports the use of multiple antenna ports per radio. Since there are always multiple antennas connected, antenna diversity is always on. The command to set the number of external antennas does not apply to the MP-632. The number of antenna ports in use is determined by the antenna type. 16 Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide Trapeze Networks set ap num radio num external-antennas num If the external-antenna command is used for the MP-632 it is ignored at the CLI. If the ANT-5007-OUT antenna is in use on the 11a/n radio then the radio configuration reverts to 2 x 3 mode rather than 3 x 3 mode and the middle port for the radio must not be used. Ethernet The MP-632 supports a single IEEE 802.3-compliant auto-sensing 10/100/1000 BaseT Ethernet interface on the Ethernet input connector. The MP is configured as auto MDI/MDIX and is powered from the XPS-6201-OUT or XPS-6202-OUT power supplies. The MP-632 must only be used with a Trapeze-approved XPS-6201-OUT or XPS-6202-OUT power supply in order to prevent possible damage to the unit. Warning! Always add the waterproof cap to the RJ45 cable when installing the DIN-RJ45 dongle. Water can cause damage to the unit and the cables. Warning! The MP-632 receives separate primary 48VDC power input and Ethernet signal from separate 48VDC and Ethernet input connectors. Warning! If you convert the 8 pin female circular DIN data port on the MP-632 bulkhead to a standard RJ45 waterproof connection for the 10/100/1000 data port, PoE on the 10/100/1000 port must be disabled to prevent service interruption.The MP-632 does not support PoE on the 10/100/1000 Ethernet data port. The MP-632 48VDC / Ethernet inputs provides primary and secondary lightning protection on all conductors. (The 48VDC / Ethernet inputs to the MP-632 need lightning protection because the power supply can be up to 100m (328 ft)away.) The Ethernet interface supports a cable length of at least 100m over CAT5, CAT5e, or CAT6 cable. Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide 17 Trapeze Networks Figure 1–3.

Be sure to ground the unit with an appropriate grounding wire (not included) by attaching it to the grounding screw on the unit. 4. Be sure to install a lightning arrestor on the Ethernet cable between the bridge and power injector. The lightning arrestor should be placed outdoors, immediately before the Ethernet cable enters the building. Warning! 18 Be sure that grounding is available and that it meets local and national electrical codes. For additional lightning protection, use lightning rods, lightning arrestors, or surge suppressors. Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide Trapeze Networks Connecting the Power Injector To connect the wireless bridge to a power source: Note: The Ethernet port on the wireless bridge does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE) based on the IEEE 802.3af standard. Do not try to power the unit by connecting it directly to a MX that provides IEEE 802.3af PoE. Always connect the unit to the included power injector module. The MP-632 must only be used with a Trapeze-approved XPS-6201-OUT or XPS-6202-OUT power supply in order to prevent possible damage to the unit. Warning! 1. Connect the Ethernet cable from the wireless bridge to the PoE Output port labeled “POE Output” on the power injector. Warning! Always align the DIN cable with the pins in the PoE Output port. You can bend the power injector pins and cause other damage to the unit by forcing the cable into the port. The DATA IN port on the power injector is not used. Note: Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide 19 Trapeze Networks 2. Insert the power cable plug directly into the standard AC receptacle on the power injector. 3. Plug the other end of the power cable into a grounded, 3-pin socket, AC power source. Note: For International use, you may need to change the AC line cord. You must use a line cord set that has been approved for the receptacle type in your country. Checking the LED Indicators The MP-632 has LEDs that provide status information for the device. The table below lists the function of the LEDs. LED Appearance Solid green Meaning All the following are true: Management link with an MX is operational. ❑ MP has booted. ❑ MP has received a valid configuration from an MX. ❑ At least one radio is enabled or is in sentry mode. ❑ Health Solid amber MP is waiting to receive boot instructions and a configuration file from an MX. Alternating green and amber MP is booting and receiving a configuration file from an MX. After the MP boots and receives a configuration, this LED appearance persists until a radio is enabled or is placed in sentry mode. Solid green A client is associated with the radio. Blinking green Associated client is sending or receiving traffic. Blinking amber Non-associated client is sending or receiving traffic. Alternating green and amber Radio is unable to transmit. This state can occur due to any of the following: ❑ Excessive radio interference in the environment is preventing the radio from sending beacons. ❑ DFS has detected radar and is restricting traffic. ❑ The radio has failed. Unlit Means one of the following: ❑ Radio is disabled and active scan is enabled. (The radio is in sentry mode.) ❑ Radio is enabled, but no clients are associated with it. Radio 1 Radio 2 The LEDs are also used to indicate RSSI signal level during mesh link calibration. RSSI meter functionality is discussed in Chapter 4, “Campus Connectivity MP Technical Specifications” of this guide. 20 Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide Trapeze Networks Aligning Antennas for Bridge or Mesh Links If you are installing MP-632 units for wireless bridge or Mesh Services operation, after the units have been mounted, connected, and the radios are operating, the antennas must be accurately aligned to ensure optimum performance on the bridge or mesh links. This alignment process is particularly important for long-range point-to-point links. In a point-to-multipoint configuration, the Mesh Portal AP uses an omnidirectional or sector antenna, which does not require alignment, but Mesh APs still need to be correctly aligned with the Mesh Portal antenna. ❑ ❑ Point-to-Point Configurations – In a point-to-point configuration, the alignment process requires two people at each end of the link. The use of cell phones or two-way radio communication may help with coordination. To start, you can just point the antennas at each other, using binoculars or a compass to set the general direction. For accurate alignment, monitor the RSSI’s LED indicator as you move the antenna horizontally and vertically. Point-to-Multipoint Configurations – In a point-to-multipoint configuration all Mesh APs must be aligned with the Mesh Portal antenna. The alignment process is the same as for point-to-point links, but only the Mesh AP end of the link requires the alignment. The LEDs are viewed right to left as you look at the back of the MP. The range from 1 to 12 will cover the signal range to accurately align the antenna. The signal strength LEDs indicate the received radio signal strength for a particular bridge link. The more LEDs that turn on, the stronger the signal. (RSSI level 1 should equate to the lowest useful signal). Alternatively, you can monitor the Receive Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) value directly from the management interface. The higher the RSSI value, the stronger the signal. When you move the antenna during alignment, the radio signal from the remote antenna can be seen to have a strong central main lobe and smaller side lobes. The object of the alignment process is to set the antenna so that it is receiving the strongest signal from the central main lobe.

Aligning the MP-632 Antenna According to Signal Strength Vertical Scan Remote Antenna Maximum Signal Strength Position for Vertical Alignment Horizontal Scan Main Lobe Maximum RSSI Value RSSI Value Side Lobe Maximum Maximum Signal Strength Position for Horizontal Alignment When aligning the antennas the MP with the antenna that is being aligned to must be set to send link-calibration packets. Use the following command to setup the MP that the MP-632 is being aligned with. set ap num radio num link-calibration mode {enable | disable} Link-calibration should be disabled under normal operation of the MP. If the MP-632 is installed with two directional antennas, connect the first antenna to the primary antenna port with antenna diversity off and align it. Then disconnect the first antenna and connect the second antenna to the primary antenna port. If the second antenna is being aligned with a different MP, disable link-calibration on the original MP and enable it on the new MP. Once both antennas are properly aligned, connect them to their desired ports. RSSI Meter Functionality The MP-632 supports an LED-based RSSI indicator when either radio operates in mesh link calibration mode. The RSSI reading must be able to support the indication of received signal levels across a 35dB dynamic range, from a high of -60 dBm to a low of -95 dBm. The RSSI is indicated by on/off/flashing LED patterns, as shown in the table below. The granularity varies between 2dBm, 3dBm, and 6dBm. 22 Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide Trapeze Networks Table 1– 2. 5G Ch.36 LED 1 LED 2 LED 3 RSSI Off Off Off No signal Flashing Slow Off Off Flashing Fast Off Off On Off Off On Flashing Slow Off On Flashing Fast Off On On Off On On Flashing Slow On On Flashing Fast On On On Strong signal LED 1 LED 2 LED 3 RSSI No signal Very low signal Low signal Operational signal Table 1– 3. 2.4G Ch.13 Off Off Off Flashing Slow Off Off Flashing Fast Off Off On Off Off On Flashing Slow Off On Flashing Fast Off On On Off On On Flashing Slow On On Flashing Fast On On On Campus Connectivity MP Quick Start Guide Very low signal Low signal Operational signal Strong signal 23 Trapeze Networks Federal Communications Commission Interference Statement (United States) This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
