Overview
Chapter 1 Overview
The ATLAS5010 is a point-to-point (PtP) wireless Ethernet transmission system provides network connectivity at speeds
up to 45 Mbps depending on the transmission distance, noise floor, and the antenna configuration. The Atlas5010 uses
OFDM technology and is designed for use in long range backhaul and wide area data networking applications. The
Atlas system is comprised of the following items:
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
6)
P5010M-INT (Configured as Master Unit with integrated 23 dBi panel antenna)
P5010M-INT (configured as Remote Unit with integrated 23 dBi panel antenna)
Two 24 Volt power adapters for use with 100 to 240 VAC, including various plug adapters
Two Power over Ethernet Junction Boxes
Port plug cover
Mounting hardware
Key points about the system are it’s ability to operate in the new 5.47 to 5.725 GHz frequency band as well as the
5.25 to 5.35 and 5.725 to 5.85 GHz bands, allowing a large number of non overlapping channels to ease
installation. As of February 2005, however, the 5.47 – 5.725 GHz band is not yet approved for use in the United
States.
The Atlas5010-INT consists of two P5010M-INT units and uses a common hardware/firmware platform for each
end of the wireless link. Users are required to simply specify one unit type as master unit (MU) and one unit as
remote unit (RU). The hardware consists of a high gain dual polarization panel antenna with the radio portion
integrated into a cast aluminum case on the back of the antenna. The unit utilizes Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) and is
designed for outdoor environments. The cable entry point can accommodate both Shielded twisted pair Cat5 (STP),
Unshielded twisted pair Cat5 (UTP), with the addition of conduit for tower mounting.

Getting Started
Chapter 2 Getting Started
It is recommended that you first provision and test your the radios on the bench before deploying them in the field. This is a
particularly useful exercise for the novice user.
Connections and Power
•
Connect a Cat-5 (straight through) Ethernet cable (we recommend shielded twisted pair) between the ODU (out door
unit) port of the J-box and the RJ-45 connector on the radio. Note that this cable will carry power-over-Ethernet
(PoE).
•
If connecting to a COMPUTER, use a Cross-Over Ethernet cable from the NET port of the J-box to the computer’s
Ethernet port.
If connecting to a HUB, SWITCH, or ROUTER, use a Straight-Thru cable.
•
Plug the AC adapter into an AC outlet.

Both green LEDs on the J-box should be lit, indicating power is present at the Power-over-Ethernet box as well as at the radio.
You are now ready to configure the radio via the Ethernet port. The Radio Power LED may take several seconds before
lighting. The radio requires approximately 45 seconds to boot.
Configuration Tools
ATLAS5010 radios can be configured using either the Command Line Interface (CLI), or the Web Browser (HTTP) interface.
Although both methods are comprehensive and powerful, the CLI method provides slightly more functionality.
Trango Broadband Wireless — ATLAS5010

Chapter 3 Configuration
Key Concepts
Prior to configuring the radios it is important to understand several key concepts:
Master Unit (MU)
The MU is typically considered the primary radio within the link. For management purposes
it is recommended to install the MU closest to the head-end of the network.
Remote Unit (RU)
The RU is typically installed at the remote end of the link. The primary distinction between
the MU and RU is that when the radios are not associated, the MU will transmit and the RU
will listen until the wireless link is established.
Peer ID
Authentication is controlled by the MAC address of each radio. The Peer ID is defined as the
MAC address of the opposite radio. In other words, the Peer ID of the MU is the RU’s MAC
address and the Peer ID of the RU is the MU’s MAC address.
Opmode
Operation mode (on or off). The radio will only transmit while set to Opmode ON.
Default Opmode
Opmode (on or off) which the radio enters after reboot. Note: if you telnet into a radio
within 30 seconds after reboot, the radio will remain in opmode OFF even if the default
opmode is ON.
Essentials to Establish a Wireless Link
Configuration of the Atlas system is simple and at a minimum requires the following settings:
1. Designate one radio as the Master Unit (MU) and one unit as the Remote Unit (RU).
2. Program Peer ID in each radio.
3. Set MU and RU to same channel and antenna polarization
4. Set default Opmode to “ON” so that radio will automatically enter opmode after reboot.
5. Turn radios Opmode “ON”.
If all of these parameters are met, and if the MU and RU are within range and properly aligned, the wireless link will
automatically establish itself and Ethernet traffic will begin to pass between the radios.
Master Unit Configuration
Start a telnet session with one of the radios. Follow these steps for configuration.
1.
Set the Unit Type (utype) to MU in one radio. (default for all radios is RU)
#> utype mu
Success.
#>
2.
Set the Peer ID with the MAC address of the RU. Only use the last 8 digits of the MAC address.
#> peerid de1B7850
Success.
#>
3.
Set channel and polarization. (in this example set the channel to 23 and polarization to H).
#> freq 23 h

Success.
4.
Set default Opmode to ON.
#> defaultopmode on
Success.
5.
Turn Opmode ON.
#> opmode on
Success.
Remote Unit Configuration
Configure the RU in the same manner as the MU. Since the default unit type (utype) is RU, you do not need to set this
parameter.
1.
Set the Peer ID with the MAC address of the MU. Only use the last 8 digits of the MAC address.
#> peerid de1B7842
Success.
#>
2.
Set channel and polarization. (in this example set the channel to 23 and polarization to H).
#> freq 23 h
Ch# 23 h (5815 MHz)
Success.
3.
Set default Opmode to “ON.”
#> defaultopmode on
Success.
4.
Turn Opmode “ON.”
#> opmode on
Success.
Establishing a Wireless Link
If the MU and RU are properly configured and in opmode “ON”, the two radios will automatically begin the
authentication process and become connected. To determine if the two radios are connected, type the sysinfo 2
command.
Example:
#> sysinfo 2
********************************* 2 *********************************

#>
Trango Broadband Wireless — ATLAS5010
page 10
Configuration
The [status] field indicates whether the MU and RU are connected or disconnected. If connected, the MU and RU will
automatically start passing Ethernet traffic over the wireless link.
Changing IP Address
Use the ipconfig command to change the radio’s ip address, subnet mask and gateway.
Syntax: ipconfig [  ]
Example:
#> ipconfig 10.8.2.140 255.255.255.240 10.8.2.129
New configuration: [ip] 10.8.2.140 [subnet mask] 255.255.255.240 [gateway]
10.8.2.129
save and activate ? (y/n) [ATTN] Telnet session will be terminated in 30
seconds.
Success.
#>
LEDs
LEDs are visible on the unit’s PCB between the reset button and the RJ-45 connector. The function of each
LED is described below:
LNK (green)
Green: On solid for an established 10BaseT or 100BaseT Ethernet Link.
SPEED
Green: Solid if 100BaseT, Blinks only if there is activity (TX or RX) on the network when a 100 MBit
connection is established. Off if a 10BaseT connection is established or if there is 10BaseT activity.
RSSI (4 LEDs)
Amber: Four LEDs
In all modes except “Survey”, the unit’s four yellow LEDs indicate the level of RF signal being
received from a VALID MU or RU as appropriate.
Yellow LED 1 : Begins blinking when RSSI is greater or equal to –90 dBm. On continuously at –85
dBm. This is the Leftmost LED
Yellow LED 2 : Begins blinking when RSSI is greater or equal to –80 dBm. On continuously at –75
dBm.
Yellow LED 3 : Begins blinking when RSSI is greater or equal to –70 dBm. On continuously at –65
dBm.
Yellow LED 4 : Begins blinking when RSSI is greater or equal to –60 dBm. On continuously at –55
dBm. This is the rightmost LED.
If no VALID MU or RU signal is detected the LEDs will not be on at all.
In addition, these 4 LEDs shall flash ON for 2 seconds, then OFF for 2 seconds to indicate the 'factory
reset' button has been activated and the reset successful.
ASSOCiation LED (green):
The ASSOC led blinks at the following rates:
- Once every second when unit is powered on but opmode is OFF.
Trango Broadband Wireless — ATLAS5010
page 11
Configuration
- Twice per second while in opmode ON and scanning for an MU or RU.
- Solid after unit is associated with the RU or MU.
RF Link Loopback Test (linktest command)
The linktest command tests the throughput and packet error rate (PER) on the current channel for each direction at all
speeds and reports results. This command also provides RSSI for both ends of the wireless link. The command can be
run from either the MU or the RU.
In running the linktest command the user must specify the modulation speed for each end of the link.
Command format: linktest  
Valid modulation speeds are: 6,12,18,24,36,48, and 54 Mbps. Lower speeds will result in fewer dropped packets.
Example:
# linktest 24 24
local tx rate = 24 Mbps
peer tx rate = 24 Mbps
packet size = 1600 bytes

In this example the linktest was run at 24 Mbps at each end of the link. The results indicated 10 cycles of 1000 packets
were transmitted and received from each end of the link without error. Actual achievable throughput is measured at 22
Mbps.
Link Speed & Power Settings
Users may change the radio’s over-the-air data rate and conducted output power using the speed and power
commands. Keep in mind that the lower data rates offer higher receiver sensitivity and higher allowable
conducted RF power in the ISM band. The following table shows the relation between speed settings, receiver
sensitivity, and allowable maximum power settings for each band. The lowest power setting for all bands in –4

Chapter 4 Deployment & Installation
Once you are familiar with the basic operation of the radios you are ready for deployment in the field. The deployment process
consists of the following steps:
• Site Selection
• Site survey at MU and RU sites
• MU installation
• RU installation and antenna alignment
• Link test
Site Selection
Proper site selection for your MU will help ensure a successful deployment. Site selection will depend on a wide variety of
factors, but from the radio’s performance standpoint, please consider the following:
• Path from MU to RU should provide unobstructed line-of-sight (LOS), thus it is advisable to place MU as high as
possible on a tall building or tower.
• Ethernet cable limit is 100 meters from Ethernet device (router, switch) to radio.
• Radios should never be deployed without proper grounding.
• Consider nearby sources of interference that could degrade the performance of the radio. Mount radios as far from
sources of interference as possible.
Site survey
The radios provide an on-board site survey tool which measure the average and peak noise levels on any given channel.
To use the survey tool, the radio must be in Opmode “OFF.” The survey can be performed for any specified amount of
time (in seconds), and for either the horizontal or vertical polarization.
Prior to performing the site survey, place the radio in the installation spot, and aim the radio in the desired direction.
After the specified period, the results of this command will provide you with a listing of each channel in the band, the
average signal received, and the maximum signal received during the survey period.
Example:
#> survey
Press any key to stop.

Channel Planning
Based on the results of the site survey at each end of the link, choose a channel which offers the lowest noise floor. In order to
reliably operate in the higher speed modes, clean spectrum is essential.

Deployment & Installation
RSSI Command and Antenna Alignment
Once the site survey is completed, you are ready to install your radios. Typically it is best to install the MU first. To
properly align the radios, use the built-in RSSI tool to achieve maximum signal strength.
1. Ensure MU and RU are in Opmode “ON.”
2. Connect to the RU.
3. Login and type the command rssi. As you read the RSSI, move the antenna in
the horizontal and vertical planes until the maximum RSSI reading is achieved
4. If it is not possible to receive an adequate RSSI reading, it may be necessary to
reorient the MU (up/down, left/right), to increase the output power of the MU, or
to move the RU to a location with better line-of-sight conditions to the MU.
5. Once you are satisfied with the RSSI reading, tighten down the RU in the
optimum position.
Example:
#> rssi
Press any key to stop.
0> MU -75 dB

1> MU -75 dB

Deployment & Installation
Port Plug and Port Plate
Prior to deployment, insert the silicone port plug around the Cat-5 Cable and insert into the radio’s port opening. Next,
screw the port plate over the silicone plug as shown in the photographs below.
Mounting Hardware
Radios are supplied with mounting hardware for pole installations. See diagram below for proper use of the mounting
hardware.

Grounding
Proper mounting of the radio includes consideration for grounding. Please note that if the radio is attached to a metal pole that
is earth-grounded, no other grounding is necessary. If the radio is not earth-grounded via the mounting bracket, you must
attach a grounding wire to the grounding stud on the radio as in the adjacent diagram.
Cabling and Weather Considerations
Shielded twisted pair Cat-5 cable is recommended for all installations. The shield within the Cat-5 cable does not need to be
grounded if the radio itself is grounded. It is important to consider that most Cat-5 cable will deteriorate over time if exposed
to the weather (especially direct sunlight). It is recommended that installers place all Cat-5 cables inside conduit. Plastic
conduit is sufficient. If metal conduit is used, it is not necessary to use shielded Cat-5 cable.
Weatherizing
Important! Please note that the silicon strain relief has a small gap when the cable is
installed. This is normal .
It is important to provide strain relief and drip loop for STP Cat-5 cables. Do not mount the
radio upside down as water will enter the bottom of the radio and cause permanent damage
Important! The Power-over-Ethernet injector is not a weatherized device and must be
located either indoors or in a weather-protected cabinet.
