Preface
About this Guide
This document provides a complete overview of the WaveRider NCL1170 bridge/router,
including system features, network planning, and procedures for implementing, installing,
operating, and troubleshooting this device.
Before proceeding, we recommend that you read the following sections:

Regulatory Notices
This device has be designed to operate with several different antenna types. Each antenna
type shall not exceed the maximum antenna system gain as given in the following table.
Antennas having a higher gain are strictly prohibited by Industry Canada and FCC regulations.
The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
Table 1
Maximum Antenna System Gain
Antenna Type
Maximum Antenna System Gain
Omni
9.0 dBi
Patch
10.6 dBi
Yagi
10.1 dBi
Dish
20.5 dBi
NOTE: For a Dish antenna a cavity filter with a minimum rejection of
20 dB, ± 22MHz from the channel center frequency is required.
Industry Canada
The NCL1170 complies with IC RSS–210.
Operators must be familiar with IC RSS–210 and RSS–102.
The IC certification number for the NCL1170 is “pending”.
WARNING!
To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, this device
is intended to be operated indoors and away from windows to
provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit antenna)
that is installed outdoors is subject to licensing.
Federal Communications Commission
The NCL1170 complies with FCC Part 15 Regulations.
The FCC ID for the NCL1170 is OOX-WRM2000.
The transmitter of this device complies with Part 15.247 of the FCC Rules.
APCD–NC006–A
WARNING!
Operators must be familiar with the requirements of the FCC
Part 15 Regulations prior to operating any link using this
equipment. For installations outside the United States, contact
local authorities for applicable regulations.
Interference Environment
Manufacturers and operators of spread-spectrum devices are reminded that the operation of
these devices is subject to the conditions that:
•
Any received interference, including interference from industrial, scientific, and
medical (ISM) operations, must be accepted; and
•
These devices are not permitted to cause harmful interference to other radio services.
If the operation of these systems does cause harmful interference, the operator of the spreadspectrum system must correct the interference problem, even if such correction requires the
Part 15 transmitter to cease operation. The FCC does not exempt spread-spectrum devices
from this latter requirement regardless of the application. The FCC strongly recommends that
utilities, cellular stations, public safety services, government agencies, and others that provide
critical communication services exercise due caution to determine if there are any nearby
radio services that can be affected by their communications.
Operational Requirements
In accordance with the FCC Part 15 regulations:
1. The maximum peak power output of the intentional radiator shall not exceed one (1)
watt for all spread-spectrum systems operating in the 2.4000-2.4835 GHz band.
2. Systems operating in the 2.4000-2.4835 GHz band that are used exclusively for fixed,
point-to-point operations may employ transmitting antennas with directional gain
greater than 6 dBi, provided the maximum peak output power of the intentional
radiator is reduced by 1 dB for every 3 dB that the directional gain of the antenna
exceeds 6 dBi.
3. Stations operating in the 2.4000-2.4835 GHz band that are used for fixed, point-tomultipoint operations may use transmitting antennas of directional gain greater that 6
dBi, provided the peak output power from the intentional radiator is reduced by the
amount in dB that the directional gain of the antenna exceeds 6 dBi.
4. Fixed, point-to-point operation, as used in Point 2, excludes the use of point-tomultipoint systems, omni-directional applications, and multiple co-located intentional
radiators transmitting the same information. The operator of the spread-spectrum
intentional radiator or, if the equipment is professionally installed, the installer is
responsible for ensuring that the system is used exclusively for fixed, point-to-point
operations.
5. The operator of a spread-spectrum system is responsible for ensuring that the system
is operated in the manner outlined in Interference Environment on page xi.

Warnings and Advisories
General Advisory
Operator and maintenance personnel must be familiar with the related safety requirements
before they attempt to install or operate the NCL1170 equipment.
It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that the public is not exposed to excessive
Radio Frequency (RF) levels. The applicable regulations can be obtained from local
authorities.
WARNING!
This system must be professionally installed. Antennas and
associated transmission cable must be installed by qualified
personnel. WaveRider assumes no liability for failure to adhere
to this recommendation or to recognized general safety
precautions.
WARNING!
To comply with FCC RF exposure limits, the antenna for this
transmitter must be fix-mounted on outdoor permanent
structures to provide a separation distance of 2 metres (6.6 feet)
from all persons to satisfy RF exposure requirements. The
distance is measured from the front of the antenna and the
human body. It is recommended that the antenna be installed in
a location with minimal pathway disruption by nearby personnel.
WARNING!
Do not operate the NCL1170 without connecting a 50-ohm
termination to the antenna port. This termination can be a
50-ohm antenna or a 50-ohm resistive load capable of absorbing
the full RF output power of the transceiver. Failure to terminate
the antenna port properly may cause permanent damage to the
NCL1170.
WARNING!
Connect only shielded cables (both the Serial and twisted pair
Ethernet) to the NCL1170 RS-232 Serial (DB-9) and 10Base Tx
Ethernet (RJ-45) ports. It is the responsibility of the installer to
supply and use the correct type of Serial and Ethernet cables.
