Trango Systems, Inc. StrataPro 24 Quick Start Guide 7
Radio Management
There are three ways to manage the StrataPro System:
1) In-Band Management (IBM) without a VLAN using the management port (default
P1). Only traffic coming into the radio from management port or the RF with the
Radio MAC address will be forwarded to the CPU and all other traffic will be
forwarded to over the link. This is the default configuration.
2) In- Band Management (IBM) with a VLAN using the management port (default
P1). . Only traffic coming into the radio on the management port or the RF with
a matching VLAN ID and the Radio MAC address will be forwarded to the CPU. All
other traffic will be forwarded over the link. The VLAN tagging option must be
enabled and the VLAN ID set.
3) Out- of- Band Management (OBM). The system will pass management traffic
coming into the OBM port to the CPU and not forward any traffic across the link
from this port. Disable IBM to enable OBM on the current management port.
Using the web interface is the easiest way to set up the system. Both sides of the link
can be set via a web session with only one radio.
Management of the radio may be done via the following interfaces:
1) Web Browser
2) Telnet
3) SSH
4) Console port
This Quick Start Guide covers the basic Web based setup. For other interfaces, please
read the User Manual.
The radio has two levels of access, View and Config. View allows only viewing of the
various parameters while config allows changing them. The default login and passwords
for each level are:
View Level Login: admin
Password: trango
Config Level Login: config
Password: trango
Trango Systems, Inc. StrataPro 24 Quick Start Guide 8
WEB BROWSER SETUP
The best performance is obtained using Google Chrome as the browser.
When using the web in config mode, changes can be entered and changed on the link by
pressing the “Apply Changes” button. The changes will take effect immediately but will
not be saved to FLASH memory. If a reboot is performed, the last saved configuration of
the system will be reloaded.
To permanently save the changes after verifying the changes, press the “Save Changes”
button. This will overwrite the configuration file in FLASH so that the next time the
radio is rebooted the changes will take effect.
When purchased as a link, one radio will be programmed with the IP address
192.168.100.100 and the other will be 192.168.100.101. The radios are setup with a
default 100 MHz channel bandwidth with IBM enabled on Port 1. Traffic can be carried
on any port over the link.
After logging into the config level and selecting the Link Setup Page, the IP address,
Netmask, and Gateway should be changed as appropriate for both radios. Press the
“Save Changes” button to the left to save the IP address. When properly linked the
display should show the locked indications at the top of each page.

FIELD INSTALLATION:
1) Install the pole mount to the back of the StrataPro Unit using the 4 #10-32
Bolts/lockwashers and install on pole as shown below. Install the radio to the
mount first.
2) Attach the StrataPro 24 Unit + Mount to the mounting pole (3 inch diam typical)
with “R” indicator at the 12 O’Clock position - Adjust the mounting bolts to
ensure that the bubble level is centered. This unit will be transmitting Right Slant
Polarization and receiving Left Slant Polarization from the perspective of the
installer. IMPORTANT: Install the far end unit exactly the same way, with the
“R” at the top. Because this system uses slant polarization, the units will be
cross polarized.
3) If it is desired to use Left Slant Polarization, the “L” should be oriented at the 12
O’Clock position on BOTH ENDS. Typically this will not be necessary unless
multiple links are co-located.
Letter “R”
Trango Systems, Inc. StrataPro 24 Quick Start Guide 14
4) Install the ground wire to earth ground on the pole or building structure. Use a
minimum 10 AWG grounding cable with #10 Spade Lug, maximum length 1 m/3
feet
5) Run the Ethernet/PoE Cable through the port cover/cord grip as shown below
then connect to the radio Port 1 (Built In RJ45).
6) Power up the radio by first plugging the cable into the PoE Unit, then plugging
the PoE unit into the AC power source. Connect the Data Port of the PoE on one
radio to a laptop computer or switch.
7) Align the radios using the BNC RSSI output or RSSI LEDs to obtain the expected
RSL. The antenna beamwidth is 3.5 degrees in both the horizontal and vertical
directions.
8) Link LED should light up solid green on both ends when the radio is locked on the
RF signal.
9) Verify both radios are reachable by pinging the IP address of the radio units.
Trango Systems, Inc. StrataPro 24 Quick Start Guide 15
10) Install the port covers and tighten the thumbscrews and cord grip. The cord grip
should be oriented towards the ground as shown.
.
11) Start passing Traffic on any port. NOTE: All ports are mapped by default to the
same port on the other side of the link, and traffic is isolated between ports on
the same radio.
Trango Systems, Inc. StrataPro 24 Quick Start Guide 16
Power Supply
Trango can provide power supplies for rack mount and desktop applications. Contact
your sales representative for more options on available power supplies. The power
supply should be kept in a weatherproof, temperature controlled environment within
the operating temp of 0 to 40 deg C.
Direct Power Option
The StrataPro24 can be direct powered using a +48 Volt DC source with a terminal block
connection at the unit. No smaller than AWG18 wiring is recommended. As long as the
minimum voltage of -43 Volts DC is maintained at the StrataPro24 unit, the system will
operate normally. This option is also preferred for applications using fiber for the data.
Power Over Ethernet (PoE) Option
When utilized with a POE-GIGE-P56 or POE-GIGE-AT60 PoE, the StrataPro 24 can be
powered over the same Cat5e/Cat6 Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) that is used for the Main
data/management connection.
Trango Systems, Inc. StrataPro 24 Quick Start Guide 17
Features
The StrataPro 24 basic features are briefly described here. For more information on
advanced features and a full command line interface listing, please reference the
individual Application Notes and Full User Manual available online at
www.trangosys.com.
Traffic Capacity
With QAM4096 modulation in a 120 MHz channel, the link can support capacities up to
1100 Mbps full duplex for large packets per carrier.
No restrictions are put on the channel size or modulation levels that can be set by the
user, however the capacity is restricted based on the license key installed.
The base model comes with 500 Mbps full duplex license and there are upgrade keys
available that can open the entire radio capacity:
SL-Key-1G:
Description: Unlocks throughput capacity from 500 up to 1000 Mbps Full Duplex
payload (1000 Mbps each direction) – Covers one link – (2 license keys provided)
SP-Key-2G:
Description: Unlocks throughput capacity up to Maximum capacity Full Duplex payload
(Approx. 2500 Mbps each direction) – Covers one link – (2 license keys provided)
Port Mapping/QoS
StrataPro utilizes Port Mapping which maps all traffic coming into a given port to the
same port on the other side of the link. Ports are isolated from each other.
The QoS scheduler is processed at the interface to the Modem section of the radio to
ensure that the highest priority packets from each port get forwarded in congestion
conditions. QoS is set up by default to process packets based on the PCP Field in the
VLAN tag of the radio.

untagged traffic can be sent across. Each incoming port is assigned a different PVID to map the traffic
to Port 9. Ingress ports are configured as unaware hybrid. Port 6 is a trunk port with all frames being
tagged on egress.
2) Management traffic from a designated local port or the modem port will be MAC filtered and sent to
CPU port. Not user traffic at management port. ACL rule to redirect traffic with CPU MAC to port 7
3) 1588 PTP messages only will be filtered and sent to Port 1 which is a high priority fixed latency
modem port. ACL rule to redirect 1588 PTP messages(untagged, tagged, UDP, TCP) to port 1.

Multilayer Header Compression
When dynamic multilayer header compression is enabled, up to 1.5 Gbps per carrier
capacity (IPv4) can be achieved for small packets without the dependency on traffic
payload. Up to 2048 headers are stored in a database and the Ethernet header is
replaced with a 2 or 4 byte tag. The tag is re-mapped to the correct Ethernet header on
the far end of the link. Statistics are available to show the effectiveness of the Header
Compression Engines. There are two engines used for compressing the streams, one
primarily for L2 portion of the header, and another for the L3-L4 portions of the header.
A higher percentage indicates better compression effectiveness. For a single stream of
IPV4 with UDP the percentage can be as high as 60%.
Custom channel size and T/R Frequency Duplex Spacing
The 24 GHz unlicensed spectrum is typically very clear due to the narrow antenna
beamwidths required. However, if collocated systems on the same path are required,
Trango Systems, Inc. StrataPro 24 Quick Start Guide 19
operation of each link on a non overlapping frequency pair may be advised. The
StrataPro 24 allows custom TX and RX center frequency to help with co-location.
The system can support user selectable channel sizes of 10, 30, 60, 75, 100, or 120 MHz.
Recommended settings for each channel size are shown in Appendix 1
Advanced Adaptive Coding and Modulation (AACM)
Advanced Adaptive Coding and Modulation provides error-free hitless changing of the
modulation level for a fixed channel width to allow the link to be maintained during
weather related fading, interference, or other channel degradation that leads to poor
signal quality. Instead of the link dropping and no traffic passing, the link will be
maintained with a lower capacity until the channel degradation is removed, at which
time the link will return to the normal modulation level.
The transitions between modulation levels are controlled by pre-set MSE thresholds and
each transition is made without dropping packets since both ends of the link coordinate
the transition automatically. The available modulation levels are 4096 QAM, 2048 QAM,
1024 QAM, 512 QAM, 256 QAM, 128 QAM, 64 QAM, 32 QAM, 16 QAM, and QPSK.
The user can set both a maximum and minimum modulation level which the radio will
operate within. Both sides of the link should have the same min and max modulation
levels for proper operation. Typically it is best to always use QPSK as the minimum
modulation level to maintain the link during deep fading.
GPS Coordinates
Allows entering/saving the GPS Coordinates manually to assist in plotting the endpoints
of each link on third party management software link SNMP managers and Google
Earth/Maps. The coordinates must be entered by the user manually.
Spectrum
This feature allows the user to check for interference by displaying what the modem is
receiving at it’s input. The spectrum is shown relative to the current receive channel
and any interference will be displayed. Use of this feature does not affect traffic over
the link. This feature does not show the actual RF spectrum, but rather the filtered
spectrum that is being used by the modem. It is used to diagnose interference only.
Link Management
The StrataPro 24 can be managed through the following methods:
Graphical User Interface (GUI):
