Device Overview
Figure 1: MP-10250-BSX
The features of the device are as follows:
Weatherproofing RJ45 Connections
The following steps explain how to weatherproof the RJ45 connections:
Figure 2: Weatherproofing RJ45 Connections
1. Use an outdoor rated CAT5e cable with a straight-through terminated on both ends.
2. Slide the Flat Washer (A) onto the Connector Body (B) and screw the Connector Body (B) into the
Ethernet port hole and torque to 10 Lbf-in (12 Kgf-cm).
3. Next slide the Sealing Nut (E) and then the Compression Ring (D) over the cable end.
4. Place and press the two piece Compression Washer Assembly (C) onto the cable in front of the
Compression Ring (D) and Sealing Nut (E), then slide the Compression Ring (D) over the
Compression Washer (C). Do not tighten the Sealing Nut (E) to the Connector Body (B).
5. Connect the CAT5e cable by pushing the RJ45 connector through the Connector Body (B) and
into the Radio Ethernet port. The RJ45 connector should lock into the port.
6. Next slide the Sealing Nut (E) over the Compression Washer Assembly (C) and slide the
Compression Washer Assembly (C) until the Sealing Nut (E) can be screwed it onto on the fixed
end of the Connector Body (B). Torque the connection to 15 Lbf-in (17 Kgf-cm) making sure the
Compression Washer (C) is tight to the cable and
Connector Body (B) completely sealing the cable.
7. Finally, ensure the plastic caps are tight on the secondary Ethernet Port 2 and Access Port and
torqued to 9 Lbf-in (10 Kgf-cm), if those ports are unused.
Additional Weatherproofing Steps
To add an additional layer of protection to the connectors against the environment, do the following:
1. Wrap vinyl tape in a half-lapped fashion, from the weatherproof connector end and continue
wrapping down 3 inches onto the CAT5e cable.
2. Wrap a second layer of vinyl tape in the reverse direction over the first layer of tape.
3. Now, wrap a third layer of vinyl tape over the other two layers but with the adhesive side up as
this provides a sticky surface for the next layer.
4. Next, wrap a layer of the butyl mastic tape over the adhesive side of the tape, covering all of the
tape and connector.
5. Wrap vinyl tape over the butyl layer and cover the entire tape assembly.
6. Place a small zip tie over the last wrap of tape to prevent it from unwrapping over time.
For a detailed explanation of weatherproofing RJ45 connectors and RF connections, refer to
Tsunami ® MP-10200 Series Hardware Installation Guide and Tsunami ®MP-10200 Series Antenna
Installation Guide respectively, at http://support.proxim.com.
Assemble the Mounting Hardware
1. Fix the Mounting Plate (A) onto the bottom of the device using the provided screws and washers
such that the antennas will be vertically and horizontally polarized when mounted; also, it is
recommended to partially fasten the screws with washers into all the mounting holes, prior to
final tightening of each screw. Torque the screws to 75 Lbf-in (86 Kgf-cm).
2. Fix the Extension Arm (B) to the fixed Mounting Plate (A) with the provided screw, nut, and
washers. The Extension Arm (B) gives the device more possible tilt, letting you adjust for azimuth
or elevation over a larger angle.
3. Fix the Mounting Bracket (C) to the fixed Extension Arm (B) with the provided screw, nut, and
washers. Partially tighten the joints J1 and J2 to allow for alignment of the device.
4. Once satisfied with the alignment, tighten the assembled parts by applying torque
130 Lbf-in (150 Kgf-cm).
5. The last image in Figure 3 shows the fully assembled mounting hardware attached to the device.
Figure 3: Assemble the Mounting Hardware
Note: This figure is for illustration only. Device should be mounted in square position with
connectors facing downward.
Mount the Device
1. To pole-mount the device, insert the provided bolts through Bracket (F), mate with Bracket (C)
around the pole, and secure with supplied nuts and washers torquing to
100 Lbf-in (115 Kgf-cm). The supplied screws (hex. Cap 5/16” x 80 mm long) are designed for
pole diameters from 38 to 76 mm (1.5 to 3 inches).
Figure 4: Pole Mounting
2. To wall-mount the device, mount the bracket to a wall using 4 screws (not provided).
Figure 5: Wall Mounting
Plug in the Cables
Note: Unscrew the sealing cap port cover for installation of cables.
1. Plug one end of the straight-through Cat5e cable into the Ethernet Port 1 of the device by
following the Weatherproofing steps explained under section Weatherproofing RJ45
Connections. Connect the other end of the cable into the Data & Power Out / PWR LAN-OUT
/ OUT port on the PoE Injector.
2. Plugging in the second Cat5e cable to the Ethernet Port 2 is optional.
Notes:
56 V DC (8 W maximum) is available on the Ethernet Port 2; hence, ensure that
connected device is rated to use the above voltage and maximum power.
When PoE IN receives 56 V DC, PoE OUT delivers the same voltage, i.e., 56 V DC.
By default, the Ethernet Port 2 is for Data only; however, it is possible to enable the PoE
OUT and Data feature through Web configuration. Please make sure to disconnect the
Ethernet Port 2 cable from the PC before enabling this feature.
3. To connect the device through a hub or a switch to a Personal Computer, connect an Ethernet
cable between the network interface card in the Personal Computer and the hub, and between
the hub and the RJ45 Data In / LAN-IN / IN port on the PoE Injector.
4. To connect the device directly to a Personal Computer, connect an Ethernet cable between the
network interface card in the Personal Computer and the RJ45 Data In / LAN-IN / IN port on
the PoE Injector.
5. The PoE Power injector is a Gigabit Ethernet port and can supply up to 60 Watts.
Install Surge Protector
Tsu na mi ® MP-10200 Series comes with a built-in Ethernet surge protection; however, it is mandatory
to install an approved lightning surge protector at the building ingress point. Moreover, if you are
installing the device in a region subjected to violent thunderstorms or severe weather conditions, then
installation of an additional approved lightning surge protector near the device is recommended.
Note: To buy an additional Surge Protector (Part Number: 235-00001), place an order separately
with your distributor.
Perform the following steps to ensure proper surge protection:
1. Mount a surge protector near the building ingress and use 10 AWG or larger wire to connect the
surge protector’s ground lug to earth ground.
2. The outdoor device and co-located surge protector should have a common grounding point
using the shortest possible grounding cable.
Note: Use Outdoor-rated, UV protected, shielded CAT5e cable for the following.
3. Connect an RJ45 terminated cable between the indoor equipment and to the port on the surge
protector at the building ingress.
4. Connect an RJ45 terminated cable between the surge protector and the outdoor device on
Ethernet Port 1.
Figure 6: Surge Protector
Ground the Device
To ensure proper grounding, attach a ground wire of at least 12 AWG stranded to the device at either
of the ground points which are located at the bottom corners of the device and use the grounding
screw provided. It is important to follow the grounding guidelines below to protect the device against
lighting or ESD events:
1. Connect one end of the grounding cable to the device and the other end to the closest earth
ground point at the installation site.

Quick Installation Guide
2. Remove any extra ground wire length when finished connecting it to the single point earth
ground.
3. Avoid sharp bends, loops or coiling the ground wire, always connect it straight to ground.
4. A proper earth ground impedance is less than 1.0 ohm.
5. Measure ground impedance at the point where the surge protector ground wire is connected
and not at the grounding rod.
6. Connect the surge protector ground wire and equipment ground (both power ground and
telecomm ground) to a single common ground.
7. Make sure all connections are fastened securely and tight.
8. Never install a link during a storm and always follow your local safety codes.

Introduction
Proxim’s Tsunami® MP-10250 Base Station leverages the core abilities of the Tsunami 10000 series and
adds to them Proxim SmartConnect improvements: BeamX(a Beam Forming Antenna system) and
Proxim SmartScan (a Scanning Radio). BeamX improves the average SNR by 6dB compared to a
standard 60° sector, while the SmartScan Radio allows uninterrupted operation in the DFS bands.
With the already high capacity and high power, the Tsunami® MP-10250-BSX is extremely robust in
the face of interference, delivers more Mbps at a given point in the network and opens up additional
5GHz spectrum.
