call it XS-61X-35 series here for short, WiMAX 3.5 GHz Outdoor Mobile CPE, proudly announced by
Microelectronics Technology Inc., is suitable to install in both residential and commercial properties for
WiMAX System operation. With the advantages of high performances and low cost, it operates on WiMAX 3.5
GHz band, offering a perfect wireless solution to extend the internet access coverage.
To meet the stringent outdoor application, the XS-615-35 series incorporates a patterned technology to
ensure the operation of the radio over the wide temperature. The build-in lightning protectors further ensure
the radio and its accessories safety during the operation.
To fulfill the network management requirement, the XS-618-35 series incorporates a TR-069 protocol to
ensure the service provider could manage the CPE over the air.
The document is for the information to know more detail about XS-61X-35 series outdoor CPE. We will
introduce the hardware part and the software configuration. This manual is intended for those people who will
operate the XS-61X-35 series, WiMAX 3.5 GHz Outdoor Mobile CPE.

1 Introduction
WiMAX technology is the ideal solution for last-mile broadband wireless access extending high-speed
network connectivity at low installation and operating costs. It is intended to provide total freedom to people
who are fixed, nomadic, or highly mobile, allowing them to stay connected with voice, data and video services.
By using WiMAX, people could go from their houses to their cars, and then travel to their offices or
somewhere else seamlessly.
MTI’s WiMAX Outdoor CPE, XS-61X-35 series, complies with IEEE Standard 802.16e-2005, state of the
art Scalable OFDMA based technology. It operates on 3.65 GHz ~ 3.70 GHz for 3.5 GHz CPE. It supports
different channel bandwidths. The modulation schemes support QPSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM on both uplink
and downlink. This WiMAX Outdoor CPE is designed with weather proof function and lightning protectors for
operation in harshest outdoor environments. In addition, it provides a user-friendly Web browser for user
setup and information sharing.
Figure 1 provides an example of the usage of the WiMAX Outdoor CPE (XS-61X-35 series). Connecting
Wi-Fi AP or VoIP Switch to the WiMAX Outdoor CPE, it is convenient to allow networked devices to share a
high-speed internet connection.

2.3 Warranty Limitation
MTI will not provide the warranty if the unit is operated out of the following conditions.
Temperature -- The outdoor CPE is tested for normal operation in the ambient temperatures from
-40°C to 60°C. Operating in temperatures outside of this range may cause the unit to fail.
Lightning -- The outdoor CPE includes its own built-in lightning protection. However, customer
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 outdoor CPE is weatherproofed against rain and prolonged heavy rain has no
significant effect on the radio signal. Customer may need to use the sealing tape around the
Ethernet port connector for extra protection. If moisture enters the connector, it may cause
degradation in performance or even a complete failure of the link.
Under normal use condition, it should be at least 30 cm away from the body of the user.

MAC Address Clone provides three options: Disabled (default), Manual and Clone.
Disable: Default WiMAX 16e MAC address (on label) will be used without replacement MAC
address.
Manual: User must provide a MAC address (ex. PC, Access Point, etc…) for connection with BS,
CPE uses this MAC address instead of default WiMAX 16e MAC address.

Clone:
z When CPE finds that the link status of Ethernet port is down and up, it will start scanning.
z CPE scans Ethernet port. Once CPE detects the source MAC address of Ethernet header is
not equal to the current WiMAX 16e MAC address, it will capture this MAC address to replace
current one.
z If the captured MAC address is not equal to current one, CPE is going to reboot. After reboot,
it will use the captured MAC address instead of current WiMAX 16e MAC address.
z See Figure 12 for detail information

3.14.1 Software Upgrade
The CPE provides software upgrade function to upgrade software image or BSP via FTP. The software
upgrade feature could be seen by clicking “File Upload” at CPE web page. The upgrade procedure is as
below.
Before upgrading the software, it is necessary to install FTP server application software on PC. If
customer doesn't have any FTP server application software, please connect to the following address
to download free Filezilla FTP server application software.
Page 33 of 35
MTI Proprietary
http://filezilla-project.org/
After installed the FTP server application on PC, customer needs to add the user name and
password on FTP server. In the Figure 22, it sets "ofdma" as both user name and password for
example. Customer could assign the desired username and password for them. Please note MAX
length for Username and Host password are 15 characters.
After assigned user name and password, please create a FTP directory (Ex.: C:\FTP) on FTP server
at PC side.
At PC site, put the new software image or files, which are provided from CPE vendor, on the FTP
directory (Ex.: C:\FTP) set as previous step.
Click “File Upload” at CPE web page, and enter Host IP Address, Host Username and Host
Password based on the FTP Server setting. Host IP is the IP address of PC and it would be
obtained by key-in “ipconfig/all” at commend window which is executed from Start-> Programs->
Accessories-> Command Prompt on PC. Then IP address of PC could be found at “Ethernet
Adapter Network” portion. Host Username and Host Password are what customer set in previous
steps. (In the example, it uses “ofdma” for both username and password.)
Press “Execute” to perform upgrading procedure. The progress will take 5 ~ 10 minutes depended on
how many files upgraded.
3.14.2 Upload Certification File
System provides the CA file upload via FTP. This feature could be seen by clicking “File Upload” at CPE
web page. The upgrade procedure is as below.
Before upload Certification File, please refer to section 3.15.1 for FTP server setup.
