Essentials of a Tarana Link Installation
Sequence
For a single point-to-point link, the EN and CN can be installed in whichever order is most convenient. Otherwise, CNs should be installed before ENs, as the latter have more
alignment flexibility when multiple links are involved that can be leveraged to maximize link headroom and resilience.
Physical Installation
Step 1. Attach elevation-adjust bracket to rear of unit. Torque these screws to 42-
60 in-lb (5-7 Nm). Note uptilt v. downtilt position options, used typically for
ENs and CNs, respectively.
Step 2. Remove outer M8x70 hex/flange bolt from elevation-adjust bracket.
Step 3. Attach assembled gimbal and mounting bracket with groove opening in
gimbal facing up. Do not torque the azimuth adjustment bolt at this time,
as you may want to adjust the angle as part of link alignment. After
alignment is complete, torque to 25 ft-lb (33 Nm).
For wall mounting, use fasteners appropriate to wall material. A load rating
of 220 lbs. is recommended per fastener.
For pole mounting, insert the band through the slot under the hex-head
locking bolt. Pull the band through the slot until nearly tight, then fold over
the band at the edge of the locking bolt/slot. Torque the locking bolt to 42-
44 in-lb (4.75-5 Nm). Clip off excess band if required. Partially tighten the
tension bolt to secure to the pole. Do not torque the bolt at this time, as
you may want to adjust the position as part of link alignment. After
alignment is complete, torque the tension bolt to 70-75 in-lb (8-8.5 Nm).

Step 4. Hang unit on gimbal, hooking inner hex/flange bolt into groove.
Step 5. Return outer hex/flange bolt to bracket, orient unit, and tighten. Do not
torque the bolt at this time, as you may want to adjust the angle as part of
link alignment. After alignment is complete, torque to 25 ft-lb (33 Nm).

Power and Connectivity
Supply -48 VDC to the unit through either its power port (1) or PoE-in enabled
Ethernet port (2). Ethernet connectivity can be established for link and
management traffic in a variety of configurations using the three or four Ethernet
ports — see our Configuration section for more details. Absent other network
design constraints or goals, a single ETH<n> port can be used for both, separating
traffic with VLANs. In any configuration, all power and signal cables must be
terminated with Harting weatherproof connectors. Proper lightning or surge
suppression devices and associated grounding are required for all connections.
Grounding
Install the ground wire prior to hanging the unit on the gimbal, as the pole or wall
may block access to the ground port. Ground the unit by attaching the grounding
wire via a standard barrel copper lug (PN#48-0061-001). Use an M8-1 X 10MM pan-
head screw and appropriate locking hardware (lock washers or thread-locker
adhesive) to secure the lug to the unit. Ensure the grounding wire is attached to
earth ground in accordance with local electrical code requirements.

Setup
Connecting the unit to DC power initiates its boot-up process. When that is
complete (in typically 3–4 minutes), the rear panel Power LED shows steady green.
Basic setup requires the following steps; see our Configuration section for detailed
instructions.
! Plug the Wi-Fi dongle into the unit’s USB port, and watch for SSID “AbsoluteAir-
<9 digit unit serial number> on your mobile device. Authenticate with password
192.168.123.1
! Use your terminal app to SSH into the unit at its static Wi-Fi address:
System:~ user$ ssh admin@192.168.123.1
admin@192.168.123.1's password: admin123
! Set the country code:
admin@system-name# configure terminal
admin@system-name(config)# radio country USA domain FCC
! Enter these commands to configure the radio link [example: CN (CN=master,
EN=slave), 3.46 GHz, link code 1.2.0.0, and max Tx power of 30 dBm]:
admin@system-name(config)# quick-setup node-mode master
frequency 3460.0 profile 1 link-code 1.2.0.0
admin@system-name(config)# radio max-permitted-pa-power 30.0
Note that unique link codes for a small number of links can be simple serial
assignations in the format g.s.c.l, where each letter is an integer referring to its
respective type of id. The last digit will be 0. For PtMP, see Configuration section.
! Configure your unit with its assigned static management IP address x.x.x.x and
subnet mask y.y.y.y:
admin@system-name(config)# interface vlan 1
admin@system-name(config-if)# ip address x.x.x.x y.y.y.y
(You may loose connection at this point. Open a new SSH session to the new IP
address. See our Configuration section for details on networking configuration.)
! For reference, give the unit a meaningful name:
admin@system-name(config)# system name "unit name here"
Access unit via Wi-Fi for config and alignment
Advanced alternative: Upload prepared config file to unit
See our Configuration section for more details on template-based config using the
Node Manager web app (introduced on the next page).
http://172.31.216.195
If setting up indoors, enable indoor-lab-mode:
admin@system-name(config)# configure indoor-lab-mode enable
! The final step with the radio is to turn its transmit power on:
admin@system-name(config)# radio tx-opmode on
! Finally, save configuration:
admin@system-name(config)# configure save
Configuration saved
To confirm:
admin@system-name(config)# exit
admin@system-name# show radio config <content follows...>
admin@system-name# show system information <content follows...>
Note: It is recommended to configure the units one at a time. If you connect both
to the same physical network prior to configuration, you will create a loop.
Alignment and Validation
Point your mobile device’s browser at the unit’s IP address (either 192.168.123.1
over Wi-Fi or the static public IP address you've assigned it) to launch the Tarana
Node Manager, the unit’s web-based user interface. The UI uses the same
authentication credentials as the CLI.
Use the UI to optimize and validate link and system performance.

Safety, Warnings, and Regulatory Information
Safety and Warnings
General Warnings
Failure to observe these safety precautions may result in personal injury or damage
to equipment.
• Follow all warnings and instructions marked on this product.
• Use standard safety guidelines when mounting. Installation and
maintenance procedures must be followed and performed by trained
personnel only.
• Before unmounting the product, disconnect power input to reduce the risk
of hazards.
• Do not exceed 60 V of input.
• Do not open the device. Opening the device voids the warranty.
• Do not stack anything on the radome.
• Dust covers must be installed on all connectors when not in use.
• Cable ends must be protected from weather if not connected to the device.
• This is a Class 1 laser product. Invisible laser radiation can be emitted from
the aperture of the port when no fiber is connected; therefore, avoid
exposure to laser radiation and do not stare into open apertures.
FCC Information
The FCC occupational controlled limit for maximum permissible exposure (MPE) is 5
mW/cm2. It is estimated that the maximum power density at the radome is 1.25
mW/cm2, which is below the FCC MPE limit. Since the power density for an
occupational controlled environment is less than the FCC limit, no additional
precautions are necessary. The occupational uncontrolled environment limit for
maximum permissible exposure (MPE) is 1 mW/cm2. To meet this MPE requirement,
the operator must be at a distance of 5.41 in or 29 cm away from the radome cover
of the system. However, an installer can reduce exposure further by turning off the
power to the device or by issuing a CLI command to the device to mute its power.

General Hazards
Topic
Explanation
Chassis Earthing
The AbsoluteAir chassis earth must be connected directly to the DC supply system earthing conductor, or to a bonding jumper from an earthing
terminal bar, or bus to which the DC supply system earthing is connected.
Protection from RF
Exposure
When installing, servicing or inspecting an antenna always comply with the following:
•
Locate the antenna such that it does not infringe the RF Exposure Limit Distance, relating to the Compliance Boundary General Public.
•Stay aware of the potential risk of RF exposure and take appropriate precautions.
•Do not stand in front of or look into an antenna without first ensuring the associated transmitter or transmitters are switched off.
•At a multi-antenna site ask the site owner or operator for details of other radio services active at the site and for their
requirements/recommendations for protection against potentially harmful exposure to RF radiation.
•When it is not possible to switch transmitters off at a multi-antenna site and there is potential for exposure to harmful levels of RF
radiation, wear a protective suit.
Fiber Optic Cables
•Handle optical fibers with care. Keep them in a safe and secure location during installation.
•Do not attempt to bend them beyond their minimum bending radius.
•Protect/cover unconnected optical fiber connectors with dust caps.
Grounding Connections
Reliable grounding of the AbsoluteAir chassis must be maintained.
Mains Power Supply
Routing
AbsoluteAir DC power is not to be routed with any AC mains power lines. They are also to be kept away from any power lines which cross them.
Maximum Ambient
Temperature
The maximum ambient temperature for the AbsoluteAir product is 60 degrees C. To ensure correct operation and to maximize long term
component reliability, ambient temperatures must not be exceeded. Operational specification compliance is not guaranteed for higher
ambients. AbsoluteAir should be mounted in such a way as to permit the vertical free flow of air through its cooling fins.
Mechanical Loading
When installing the AbsoluteAir on a tower, ensure that the tower is securely anchored. Ensure that the additional loading of devices will not
cause any reduction in the mechanical stability of the tower.
Power Supply
Connection
AbsoluteAir operates from a nominal -48 VDC power supply.
Power Supply
Disconnect
An appropriate power supply disconnect device should be provided as part of the installation.
Rack Mount
Temperature
Considerations
AbsoluteAir is designed to operate in an outdoor environment with no significant obstructions in front of the radome. Do not install AbsoluteAir
in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, because such a closed rack would impede the propagation of the RF signals. The maximum ambient
temperature applies to the immediate operating environment of the AbsoluteAir product.
