SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 10 Solution Overview SkyPilot Networks delivers a wireless, end-to-end broadband solution that seamlessly supports high-capacity, high-coverage mesh networks. Designed for managed-access networks and service providers, the SkyPilot network takes broadband wireless the “last mile” with a cost-effective, robust infrastructure solution. Based on a high-performance architecture that deploys intelligent antenna arrays, the SkyPilot network delivers a dynamic broadband solution with significant advantages for business and home users. SkyPilot wireless devices are simple to install and easily fit into any type of wireless environment—metropolitan, business, or home. The auto-discovery and rapid provisioning features of a SkyPilot wireless mesh network can greatly reduce deployment and maintenance costs. Multiple topology options and network scalability create intriguing options for rapidly expanding a metro Wi-Fi customer base. SkyPilot devices’ multiple antenna configurations work within mixed-use environments of municipal applications and broadband Internet access, supporting public-private partnerships such as public safety services. Mesh Network The typical configuration for a SkyPilot network is a mesh topology, which uses SkyExtenders to extend range and add network flexibility. In a mesh configuration, subscribers can either connect directly to the SkyGateway or connect indirectly via SkyExtenders (see Figure ). In addition to adding range, a mesh network allows connections from locations where obstructions prevent line-of-sight access to a SkyGateway hub. Mesh networks are ideal for dense subscriber environments, for filling in coverage “holes,” and for reaching subscribers in areas where RF communication is obstructed by hills, trees, buildings, or other obstacles.
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 11 Figure 1. SkyPilot wireless mesh network
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 12 SkyGateway The SkyGateway operates as a base station for a wireless mesh network. It provides an interface between wired infrastructure and a wireless network of subscribers who enjoy secure, high-speed access to the Internet or to wide area networks. A SkyPilot wireless network requires at least one SkyGateway for operation. If necessary, you can add additional SkyGateways to increase network capacity or provide redundancy. The SkyGateway typically resides at a location with easy access to wired infrastructure—usually a POP (point of presence) or data center. For optimal performance, install the SkyGateway on an elevated site such as a cell tower or the top of a tall building. SkyExtender Devices SkyExtenders, SkyExtender DualBands, and SkyExtender TriBands provide a cost-effective way to add capacity and balance network loads by operating as “repeaters” to extend the wireless range of a SkyGateway (see Figure ). You can add any SkyExtender device to your network to expand your coverage footprint and provide redundancy through SkyPilot’s mesh networking features. SkyExtender devices (except DualBands) can provide subscribers with a direct connection to the wireless network via the device’s Ethernet port. SkyExtender DualBand is a dual-radio solution that combines SkyPilot’s long-range, high-capacity 5 GHz mesh backhaul with a high-powered 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g access point that allows service providers and municipalities to offer standard Wi-Fi services over great distances—for targeted hot zones or dense, ubiquitous coverage patterns. SkyExtender TriBand integrates a 5.8 GHz mesh backhaul with the DualBand’s access point and adds a third radio accessible through a second access point. The second access point leverages the 4.9 GHz Public Safety band, using 802.11a communication protocol. Each access point uses a single antenna, and these
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 13 antennas have similar coverage patterns, providing a cost-effective solution for municipal networks. For optimal performance, install the SkyExtender in an elevated location such as a roof, tower, or utility pole. SkyConnector and SkyAccess DualBand SkyConnectors link your subscribers to the SkyPilot wireless network. An Ethernet port on the device allows a connection to a subscriber’s computer, or to a local area network (LAN) via a data switch or router. Designed for installation by the service provider, the SkyConnector attaches to an external structure such as an eave, roof, or pole. The SkyAccess DualBand offers the same features as a SkyConnector, plus a Wi-Fi access point that enables service providers and municipalities to provide standard 802.11 wireless access over great distances, for targeted hot zones, or for dense coverage patterns.

SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 20 Planning your Installation In a typical wide area wireless mesh network, you’ll install a SkyConnector on a utility pole or the roof of a building. The effective range of a SkyConnector is usually proportional to the height of the installation. When choosing a site for a SkyConnector Outdoor, consider the radio frequency (RF) environment and the physical layout of the area. Trees, buildings, and hills can attenuate or block a wireless signal. When assessing a site, examine the overall topology of the wireless path for possible obstructions—both existing and planned—as well as seasonal changes of foliage and tree growth. The RF environment is dynamic, and can deteriorate over time as structures appear or are relocated. Plan to use test signals to determine the suitability of the link topology for target applications. Interference on your desired frequency results in overlapping signals, causing outages or intermittent drops in throughput. Once you’ve identified a potential site, use a topographic map or path profile software to ensure that terrain or obstacles will not interfere with the links. Your site survey should include an RF scan to identify available frequencies. You should also check your preferred frequency at all locations. A frequency that’s clear at one location may be crowded at another. Frequency planning is a critical factor in planning and implementing a wireless network. (For device operating frequencies, see Appendix , “ C.” ) The site survey process should be ongoing. To verify that a site is relatively free of interference, make site audits every six to twelve months, scheduling regular maintenance visits to coincide with the site audits. NOTE Plan to configure the SkyConnector Outdoor before mounting it. Some steps, such as those requiring serial console access, are
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 21 easier if the device is more accessible. For information about configuration, see “Configuring the SkyConnector” on page 20. Cabling the SkyConnector Ethernet cabling provides power and data connectivity for the SkyConnector. This section provides instructions for attaching CAT5 cable to the device. To install CAT-5 cabling: 1 Terminate the appropriate grade and length of CAT-5 cable with an RJ-45 connector, and plug it into the RJ-45 port on the back of the SkyConnector. Make sure the fit is snug so that the cable doesn’t interfere with the weather gasket. Figure 3-1. Connecting CAT5 cable to the SkyConnector 2 Insert the weather gasket and secure the metal cover.
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 22 a. Press the CAT5 cable into the gasket and insert the gasket into the housing, taking care not to twist or place unnecessary force on the RJ-45 connector. b. Fit the metal cover over the weather gasket and secure it with the four machine screws supplied in the accessory kit (Figure 3-2). Figure 3-2. Attaching weather gasket and metal cover 3. Attach the tie wraps to the neck of the weather gasket and tighten them so that they slightly depress the neck (Figure 3-3). The tie wraps provide relief from cable strain and ensure a fully weatherproof seal.
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 23 Figure 3-3. Attaching tie wraps to the gasket neck Powering on the SkyConnector Before mounting the SkyConnector, first power on the unit so that you can use the onboard LEDs to determine optimal placement. To power on the SkyConnector: 1 Attach the power supply a. Connect the AC power cord to the AC adapter, and plug it into an AC outlet. b. Connect the Ethernet cable to the port labeled “CPE” on the power injector. NOTE Be careful not to plug the Ethernet cable connected to the SkyConnector into the port labeled “Computer.”
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 24 c. Plug the AC adapter into the power injector. Figure 3-4. Providing power to the SkyConnector 2 Check the LEDs on the SkyConnector. If the connections are correct, the SkyConnector’s power LED (labeled “PWR”) should illuminate and the WAN activity LED (labeled “WAN Act”) should blink on and off. (For details about the LED status lights, see Table 3-1 on page 18.)
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 25 Figure 3-5. Checking the SkyConnector LEDs
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 26 Optimizing Location After powering up the SkyConnector, use the device’s LEDs to identify the optimal location for mounting. (For details about the LED status lights, see Table 3-1 on page 18.) To power on the SkyConnector: 1 Confirm signal acquisition. a. Position the SkyConnector near the intended mounting location and watch the “WAN Act” LED for activity. The LED starts blinking when it acquires a signal from the network and is attempting to make a connection. If the LED doesn’t start blinking within 30 seconds, try changing the orientation of the SkyConnector or walk to a new location. Repeat the process until the LED starts blinking. b. When the LED starts blinking, make minor adjustments to find the location where the signal is strongest. (The faster the LED blinks, the stronger the signal.) When the LED blinks steadily at a high rate, you have an optimal signal. 2 Verify network connection. a. Watch the “WLAN Link” LED for activity. Within 90 seconds of locating a signal, the LED should start to blink—first slowly, then more quickly, and finally it should remain steadily lit. When the “WAN Link” LED is steadily lit and the “WAN Act” LED is blinking, SkyConnector has established an authorized connection to the network, indicating that the current location is suitable for mounting. If both the “WAN Link” LED and the “WAN Act” LED continue blinking, a signal is available but isn’t strong enough for reliable service. Keep trying different locations until you can confirm a network connection.
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 27 NOTE To optimize your SkyConnector installation, ask your network administrator (at the Network Operations Center) to measure signal strength on the node to which SkyConnector has established a link.
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 28 Monitoring SkyConnector Status Table 3-1 provides detailed descriptions of SkyConnector states indicated by the LED lights. When both LED lights are lit and steady, the SkyConnector is successfully connected to the wireless network.

WAN Link Blinking (fast blink when device is in standby mode) Device is attempting to establish an authorized connection on the wireless network. If both WAN Link and WAN Act continue to blink, the signal is not strong enough to support reliable service or there is a provisioning problem that’s preventing the device from coming online. Contact your network administrator. Steady illumination Device is connected to the wireless network. WAN Act None Device cannot detect a wireless network. Blinking Device is within the coverage area of a wireless network. Blink rate communicates signal strength: • Fast (8x per second) = excellent • Medium (4x per second) = good • Slow (<1x per second) = poor • None = no reception Mounting the SkyConnector After determining an optimal location for your SkyConnector, you can mount the device and run the appropriate cables.
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 30 To mount the SkyConnector: 1 Disconnect the CAT-5 cable from the power injector. 2 Power down the SkyConnector. 3 Attach a magnetic level to the 1 1/8" (2.87 cm) and 1 3/8" (3.48 cm) diameter steel mounting pole to verify that the pole is plumb (straight). IMPORTANT It is the installer’s responsibility to verify that the support pole and its installation method are of sufficient strength to withstand onsite weather conditions. (The supplied mounting bracket and screws are certified to withstand a 125 mph wind force.) 4 Use the provided clamps and screws (provided in the accessory kit) to attach the SkyConnector to the mounting pole (see Figure 3-6). Before clamping down the bracket, check that the mounting pole is still plumb and that the SkyConnector is level. NOTE If the device is not level, performance may be degraded.
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 31 Figure 3-6. Attaching the SkyConnector 5 Reconnect the CAT-5 cable to the port labeled “CPE” on the SkyConnector power injector. Configuring the SkyConnector To operate on the wireless mesh network, the SkyGateway requires a network configuration. A SkyConnector will not transmit a wireless signal until it’s configured, and it will not be able to connect to other network devices without a configuration. SkyPilot offers two modes for provisioning devices with a configuration: 4
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 32 • Automatic - Requires the use of SkyPilot EMS software to create configurations that an unattended central server can distribute to devices on the wireless mesh network. Although automatic provisioning requires more setup time than manual provisioning, it greatly simplifies the administration of a growing network. • Manual - Usually performed in the field, manual provisioning permits the configuration of a single device at a time, creating the minimum settings required for a wireless link and storing them in the device’s flash (nonvolatile) memory. Manual provisioning is a logical choice if you’re installing a test network or rolling out a small-scale installation that isn’t expected to expand. For more information about provisioning modes and procedures, refer to Getting Started with the SkyPilot Network and SkyPilot Network Administration, available from the SkyPilot website at www.skypilot.com/support/. Accessing the Command-Line Interface SkyPilot devices include a command-line interface which you can use for manual provisioning and troubleshooting. You can connect to a device and access its command-line interface through Telnet over an Ethernet connection or via a terminal session from a console connected to the device’s RJ-45 serial port. After logging in (by supplying a password), you can enter commands at the command prompt. For detailed cabling and access instructions for the command-line interface, refer to the SkyPilot Command-Line Interface Reference.
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 33 Troubleshooting After making an Ethernet or serial connection to the SkyConnector, you can manage and troubleshoot the device using a wide range of commands available through the command-line interface. For detailed troubleshooting procedures, refer to the “Troubleshooting” section in SkyPilot Network Administration. There you’ll find troubleshooting procedures for: • Power-on problems • Ethernet connectivity problems • IP connectivity problems • SkyGateway transmission problems • Link failure problems
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 35 Grounding Guidelines This appendix provides some guidelines for properly grounding the SkyPilot Connector. Proper grounding protects both your SkyPilot device and equipment connected to it. For the surge protection circuitry built into the SkyPilot equipment to be effective, proper grounding of the unit is necessary. This is especially true if you’re installing devices on tall structures, or in areas subject to lightning. NOTE The techniques described in this appendix are intended as general guidelines only and do not constitute a comprehensive guide covering all installation scenarios. For maximum protection, contact a qualified installation specialist who is familiar with your operating environments. If lightning is a threat in your area, consider a consultation with a lightning and transient protection specialist. General Grounding Strategy To ensure optimal reliability, properly ground the metal base of the SkyPilot device. The most efficient way to ground the device is to use an 8 GA or larger wire to connect it to a ground point on the structure or tower. The three most common ground points are: • A cold-water pipe. Make sure it is well connected to earth. A
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 36 • The primary grounding point of the AC electrical system of the building. • A 10-foot or longer copper-clad ground rod driven into the earth. For a tower with multiple legs, you need one ground rod per leg and a ground wire loop connecting each of the rods; see Figure 12. Figure A1-1. Attaching the SkyConnector Making Connections “Gas-Tight” Regardless of the grounding point you use, make sure the connections are “gas-tight” - capable of retaining low resistance and integrity over time and with exposure to the elements.
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 37 Use of an antioxide compound and proper sealing is essential. For protection against corrosion, wrap all connections with Scotch® 130C tape. Checking Cold-Water Pipe Integrity If you’re using a cold-water pipe for grounding, verify the integrity of the ground. In some cases, sections of metal cold-water pipes may have been repaired or extended with PVC material. PVC material or a dielectric union will render a cold-water pipe ground unacceptable for grounding. Measuring Resistance Verify that there is no more than 5 ohms of resistance between any two ground points in the entire system. Also make sure that all ground points on a structure are tied together. For example, if you use a ground rod and a cold-water pipe as grounding points at different locations on the same structure, you must tie them together. Adding Surge Protection If you’re installing a SkyPilot device in an area that’s subject to lightning storms, SkyPilot recommends installing a surge protection device (SPD) at both ends of the Ethernet cable - one at the SkyPilot device and one at the point of entry to a building or enclosure. SkyPilot offers SPDs with bracket and cabling designed for use with SkyPilot equipment. For more information, visit SkyPilot customer support at www.skypilot.com/support/ to view accessory guides for SkyPilot-branded surge protection solution. (You may also purchase SPDs from third-party vendors.)
SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 38 Grounding Checklist When grounding a SkyPilot device, use the following checklist to confirm that your installation is adequately protected from power surges and lightning. • Connect a ground wire from the SkyPilot device to a ground system on the building or tower. • Use shielded CAT5 cabling and connect the drain wire of the shield to ground at the SkyPilot device. (Leave the other end of the drain wire unconnected.) • Use the proper size down lead to connect a SkyPilot device on a roof or tower to the ground system of indoor equipment. • Verify that all points of the ground system are tied together with less than 5 ohms resistance between any two points. • Run the CAT5 cable inside the tower structure, tying the cable to the tower leg at every 4 feet of length. For increased protection, run the CAT5 cable through metallic conduit installed on the tower. • Bleed off any static charge by installing a streamer-delaying, static-dissipation array above the SkyPilot device. • Install all lightning and surge protection devices in accordance with UL 96A installation requirements for lightning protection systems and the NFPA 780 standard for lightning protection.
