Proprietary and Confidential Contents SpiderCloud Wireless, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-320 Hardware Installation Guide About this Manual This guide provides the system specifications of the SpiderCloud Wireless® Radio Node 320 (SCRN-320). It includes detailed hardware installation instructions, the boot sequence, and expected LED behavior both during the boot-up and under operating conditions. An appendix shows the radio node antenna patterns. The primary audience for this guide includes network planners, system administrators and installation personnel. It assumes you have knowledge about networking principles, networking configuration, site preparation, powering, and experience in hardware installation and maintenance. Product Overview The SCRN-320 is an LTE-U and LTE-LAA capable small cell that operates in a licensed LTE frequency carrier, aggregated with license-exempt 5GHz spectrum, to deliver higher capacity and enhanced user experience without the need for new network elements or complexity. SpiderCloud’s scalable small cell system, called an Enterprise Radio Access Network (E-RAN), hides the complexity of radio management and mobility and provides operators with a single touch-point to aggregate and manage a large network of LTE small cells. The SCRN-320 builds upon the LTE-Advanced functionalities of the E-RAN system and leverages CA and Self Organizing Networks (SON) capabilities to support LTE-U and LTE-LAA operation. Each SCRN-320 radio node supports a licensed LTE carrier paired with a supplemental downlink 5GHz carrier operating in UNII-1 (5150-5250MHz) or UNII-3 (5725-5850MHz) bands. Both licensed and unlicensed radios support 2x2 MIMO operation enabling higher user capacity and average data rates per radio node coverage footprint. When the unlicensed channel is paired with a 20 MHz licensed LTE channel, each SCRN-320 supports a peak downlink rate of 300 Mbps and a peak uplink rate of 50 Mbps. The SCRN-320 is easy to install and connects to the existing enterprise LAN using standard Ethernet cabling or to a dedicated LAN infrastructure deployed for use by the operator. SCRN-320 radio node are managed by the SpiderCloud SCSN-9000 services node installed in the enterprise or in a centralized location such as a data center. The SCRN-320 has no fans and is convection cooled. Antennas are built-in with an orderable option for SMA connectors for use with external antennas. The SCRN-320 utilizes on-chip Trusted Platform Module (TPM) functions to implement secure boot, and establish certificate-based IPsec tunnel to SpiderCloud services node for all traffic. There is no management or console port on the radio node. The radio node can be physically locked to prevent theft.

Figure 4 shows the location of the licenced and unlicensed LTE antennas: Licensed LTE Unlicensed LTE Internal Sniffer Antenna Unlicensed LTE Licensed LTE Figure 4 External Antenna Band Locations Ports The radio node has one 1 Gigabit Ethernet port that supports a Category 5e (Cat 5e) or better twisted-pair cable with an RJ-45 connector. Figure 5 shows the Ethernet port. There are two LEDs on the connector: • Link: Steady green state indicates a normal Layer 2 link connection has been established. • Activity: Yellow blinking indicates data activity. Link Activity Ethernet Port Figure 5 Ethernet Port SpiderCloud Wireless, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-320 Hardware Installation Guide The Top-Panel LED The radio node has one top-panel tricolor (RGB) LED to indicate power and status. This is the only LED visible under normal operating conditions. When the radio node initially boots the LED cycles through a number of colors and flashing behaviors until it is fully operational. Status indications: boot, normal, disabled, fault, emergency call, radio node tracking. LED Figure 6 Radio Node Tricolor LED Input Power The radio node receives its power from a standard Power Over Ethernet (PoE+) switch (typical) or injector. The radio node is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ specification. Per IEEE 802.3at, use standard Cat 5e or better twisted-pair cable with a maximum length restriction of 100 meters (328 feet) for PoE+. This restriction minimizes power loss between the PoE+ power source and the radio node. Power is distributed over two pairs of the four available pairs in Cat 5e or better cables. The radio node can accept power on either used or un-used pairs. Note When connecting the radio node to a PoE+ switch, ensure that the switch port is statically configured to deliver minimum 25W of power. Some PoE switches may be factory configured to deliver lower power per port. If this is the case change the configuration during installation. Note SpiderCloud Wireless, Inc.

Refer to the E-RAN Deployment Planning Guide for Dual-Mode Systems and E-RAN Deployment Planning Guide for LTE Systems for more information about radio node placement. When mounting near a wall or other obstruction, orient the mounting bracket such that the transmit antenna faces towards the coverage area and faces away from the wall. Refer to Bracket Mounting and Cabling Guidelines on page 14 for more information. Installation and Mount Bracket Assembly The radio node slides into one of two brackets for ceiling or wall mounting: • a quarter-inch (0.64 centimeter) deep for cabling through a surface such as a wall or ceiling • a 1.25 inch (3.18 centimeters) deep for exposed cabling along a hard surface such as brick or cinder block Bracket Mounting and Cabling Guidelines Incorrectly cabling and mounting a radio node can result in crushed cables and loss of communications to the unit. Follow these guidelines in cabling the radio node and mounting it on the bracket: • Ensure that the cabling is properly routed and dressed. • Ensure that the radio node is fully inserted into the mount bracket so that it locks into place and is flush. A correctly installed cable should at no time during installation impede inserting the radio node into the mount bracket. • Secure the radio node to the mount bracket with a padlock or tie wrap to provide physical security. 14 SpiderCloud Wireless, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-320 Hardware Installation Guide • When mounting the radio node vertically, orient the bracket such that the bracket keyholes have the narrow side up as shown in Figure 10. Typical Radio Node Mounting Options Radio nodes can be mounted on a wide number of surfaces including the following typical surfaces: • Light grill: Use bolts, nuts, and washers to secure the universal mount bracket using holes in the light grill. Adjust the universal mounting bracket until the bracket and light grill holes align. • Directly on the wall or ceiling: Use drywall screws to secure the universal mount bracket directly to sheetrock or plasterboard on the wall or ceiling. • Mud or plaster ring: Secure the universal mount bracket directly on the wall or ceiling as above with a 3 1/4 inch (8.25 centimeter) mud or plaster ring between the mount bracket and the mounting service and run the Ethernet cable through ring’s hole. • Existing infrastructure: Secure the universal mount bracket to existing infrastructure as long as the radio node RF propagation or existing installed equipment is not adversely impacted. • Non-metal tiles: Use bracing for rear support and mount the radio node in the center of the tile for even weight distribution. Ensure that the bracing is the same width as the tile. • Drop ceiling: Contact your SpiderCloud Wireless representative for recommendations of supported third-party brackets and clamps. Installing the Radio Node The radio node receives its power source over powered Ethernet. If your wiring closet does not have existing PoE+ equipment, SpiderCloud Wireless recommends a PoE+ power injector for the radio node. See section Input Power on page 9. The Ethernet cable can directly through a surface such as a wall or ceiling or route the cable openly: • Refer to Installing the Radio Node (Method 1) on page 16 for direct cable routing installation through an opening behind the mount bracket using the shorter mount bracket. • Refer to Installing the Radio Node (Method 2) on page 17 for open cable routing installation using the taller mount bracket.

Proprietary and Confidential 19 SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-320 Hardware Installation Guide Boot Sequence and Services Node Communication On initial boot, the radio node performs the following boot sequence. When finished, all devices are reachable. Figure 16 shows the radio node boot sequence: LK AT LK AT LK AT LK AT LK AT LK AT LK AT LK AT POWER Radio Node LNK MGMT ACT USB CONSOLE SIM 0 STATUS SIM 1 Services Node DHCP Request for IP Address DHCP Response (RN, IP, Controller IP) Join Request Join Response (Join Grant, Redirect, Denied) Arrival sequence begins Send SpiderCloud software package Boot-up, bring up the IPsec tunnel and join the network Figure 16 Radio Node Boot Sequence Boot Sequence: 1. When the radio node is powered on, the device sends a DHCP Request to the services node DHCP server to get IP information. The DHCP server is configured on the services node to respond only to DHCP requests from SpiderCloud Wireless radio nodes. Refer to the SpiderCloud OS (SCOS) Administrator Guide for more information about the services node DHCP server configuration. 2. The server responds with the IP addresses of the radio node and the services node (the master of the radio node). 3. Using its own IP address, the radio node sends a Join Request message to the services node. The radio node seeks to join the cellular network. 4. The services node responds with a Join Response message indicating whether the radio node is allowed to join the network or not. 5. The arrival sequence begins. The services node sends the SpiderCloud software image to the radio node. 6. The radio node boots up the received SpiderCloud software package. 7. The radio node establishes an IPsec tunnel with the services node. Based upon the radio configuration, the radio node loads the appropriate protocol elements and joins the network. 20 SpiderCloud Wireless, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-320 Hardware Installation Guide Radio Node LED Boot Sequence The radio node state machine is sequential and progresses in the following order: State 0 -> State 1 -> State 2 -> State 3 -> State 4 -> State 5 A normal boot sequence transitions through all these states sequentially and the LED state transitions accordingly. If the radio node fails to transition to the next state, the system restarts the boot sequence, starting with State 0. You can determine the progress during the booting stages by observing the LED color transitions. On failure, the last LED state will display the state that encountered the failure. Table 6 shows the radio node boot sequence and corresponding LED behavior: Table 6: Radio Node LED Boot Sequence State 0. Power On/ Reset LED Color Flashing Green Description Possible Failures and Actions This is the initial state on startup. The radio node bootup is controlled by firmware in this state. It will go through a lamp test in this state. A lamp test involves cycling through all LED colors. 1. DHCP 2. Join Solid Red Solid Blue Flashing Blue A radio node should not stay in this state indefinitely. Note: Flashing Green is also used to indicate a radio node that has been administratively disabled. This can be determined from the CLI. The radio node starts by sending out a DHCP Request. No DHCP Response, IP Address not allocated. The radio node moves to the next state (State 2) upon receiving a DHCP response and an IP Address. Check cabling, DHCP Server configuration. The radio node has an IP Address and sends a UDP Join request to the Serving services node. No IP reachability to the services node. The radio node moves to the next state (State 3) upon getting a JOIN GRANT from the services node. 3. TFTP This state should be very short lived and should transition to the next state immediately. The radio node proceeds next to download the operating system image from the services node. The radio node moves to the next state (State 4) after the image has been downloaded. SpiderCloud Wireless, Inc. Check IP network between radio node and services node for routing issues. Failure to download TFTP image. Check firewall between radio node and services node.
