• RF and interference robustness - WipAir 6000/3000 introduces unique and
robust interference mitigation mechanisms:
o Automatic Interference Sensibility - proprietary solution that
increases RF robustness by eliminating false receptions of noise thus
maintaining constant throughput and latency. The automatic sensibility
sets an Rx threshold above the noise level as shown in figure 3.
o ACM - Adaptive Modulation and Coding (modulation can be defined
manually as well).
o FEC - Forward Error Correction, K = 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 5/6.
o Fast ARQ - Automatic Retransmit reQuest.
Figure
1-3: Automatic interference sensibility
• 128-bit AES encryption – non-compromising security.
• Networking and QoS – built in QoS in both PTP and PTMP modes:
o Bandwidth control – define maximum throughput for each direction
(uplink and downlink) independently.
o 8 priority queues – packets are classified according to TOS and VLAN
priority into the queues (7 = highest priority and 0 = lowest priority).
o Packet filtering: VLAN based and broadcast filters.
o VLAN tagging/stripping per terminal.
• Real time synchronization - by GPS or internal. WipAir 6000/3000 built in
time synchronization technology allows collocation of multiple MUs on the
same tower and on collocated towers while reusing frequencies, eliminating
self-interference between them.

Figure
1-4: Multiple WipAir 6000/3000 MUs on one tower
Without time synchronization, one MU will transmit while the other MU receives. The
transmittion of the first MU will block the reception of the second MU since they are
close to each other (can even occur when the MUs are on different channels).
Figure
1-5: Self-interference without time synchronization
Time synchronization synchronizes the transmission and reception of all MUs, thus
eliminating self interference between them and allowing better frequency reuse.

Select the appropriate locations for the outdoor unit using the following guidelines:
• The outdoor unit can be pole or wall mounted.
• The location should allow easy access to the unit for installation.
• When using an external antenna, the unit should be installed as near as
possible to the antenna.
• Make sure clear Line of Sight between the units.
Path of Clearest Propagation
A propagation path is the path that signals traverse between the antennas of any two
bridges. The “line” between two antenna sites is an imaginary straight line, which
may be drawn between the two antennas. Any obstacles in the path of the “line”
degrade the propagation path. The best propagation path is, therefore, a clear line of
sight with good clearance between the “line” and any physical obstacle.
Physical Obstacles
Any physical object in the path between MU and SU can cause signal attenuation.
Common obstructions are buildings, trees and hills located in the path between the
two sites. Install outdoor antennas high enough to avoid any obstacles, which may
block the signal.
Minimal Path Loss
Path loss is determined by several factors:
• Distance between sites – Path loss is lower when distances between sites
are shorter.
• Clearance – Path loss is minimized when there is a clear line of sight. The
number, location, and size of obstacles determine their contribution to path
loss.
• Antenna height – Path loss is lower when antennas are positioned higher.
Antenna height is the distance from the imaginary line connecting the
antennas at the two sites to “ground” level. “Ground” level in an open area is
the actual ground. In dense urban areas, “ground” level is the average height
of the buildings between the antenna sites.

Two types of antennas are available for WipAir 6000/3000 system:
• Integrated antenna
• External antenna
The necessary antenna gain depends on the required range and performance.
Note: To comply with the regulation EIRP limits, the outdoor unit-transmit
power needs to be adjusted according to the installed antenna gain.
Therefore a professional installation of the transmitter is required. The
outdoor unit must be configured at the time of installation by qualified
personal. Fail to comply with regulation rules may expose the installer
to legal liabilities.

The outdoor unit transmit power is configurable using the Link Manager. The Link
Manager limits the max transmit power according to the antenna gain, the regulation
and the frequency band. The installer, if needed, can select a lower power.
Regulation of the unit defines the frequency band supported by the units:
FCC: 5.8 GHz.
ETSI: 5.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz.
Non-regulated: 5.x GHz.
The Link Manager supports two levels of privilege password: regular user and
administrator user. Since power output levels will affect compliance of the unit with
regulation rules, precautions are built into the system to keep the end user from
adjusting the power output level above the regulation limits. Therefore, the following
parameters are Configurable only by administrator user:
• Antenna gain.
• Tx Power.
Please refer to WipAir_6000_3000_configuration_manual.pdf for more information.
FCC - 5.8 GHz
IMPORTANT! Antennas must be selected from a list of WaveIP approved
antennas. Please refer to Appendix C – FCC Approved Antennas.
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that when using
the outdoor antenna kits in the United States (or where FCC
rules apply), only those antennas certified with the product are
used. The use of any antenna other than those certified with the
product is expressly forbidden in accordance to FCC rules CFR47
part 15.204.
According to FCC part 15.247(b):
(1) The maximum peak output power of intentional radiator shall not exceed 1 Watt
(+30 dBm).
(3) If transmitting antennas of directional gain greater than 6 dBi are used, the peak
output power from the intentional radiator shall be reduced below the maximum peak
power (of +30 dBm) as appropriate, by the amount in dB that the directional gain of
antenna exceeds 6 dBi.
That is to say that the maximum EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power) shall not
exceed +36 dBm.
(ii) Systems operating in 5.8 GHz exclusively for fixed, point-to-point operations
may employ transmitting antennas with directional gain greater than 6 dBi without
any corresponding reduction in transmitter peak output power.
That is to say that the maximum EIRP can exceed +36 dBm in point-to-point
applications.
Dynamic range of Tx power in WipAir 6000/3000 is 40 dB.

In Point-to-Multipoint mode, the Link Manager software will automatically reduce the
Tx power according to the antenna gain. For example:
• For integrated antenna of 23 dBi, the Max Tx power allowed by the Link
Manager is 13 dBm (10 dBm in WipAir 6000) to meet the EIRP limitation of 36
dBm.
• For integrated antenna of 28.5 dBi, the Max Tx power allowed by the Link
Manager is 7 dBm (4 dBm in WipAir 6000) to meet the EIRP limitation of 36
dBm.

WipAir 6000/3000 units have a built in RSSI buzzer that indicates the best mounting
location.
The buzzer is beeping at four tone levels:
• Fast – highest signal obtained so far.
• Medium – the current alignment is lower than the highest signal obtained so
far.
• Slow – the current alignment is much lower than the highest signal obtained
so far.
• No sound – no reception of the base station at all (or the buzzer is off).
In order to select the best alignment of the unit, please perform the following steps.
Select the best location:
1. When the unit is first connected to power, the buzzer will be automatically
activated in one of the following modes:
• No sound – there is no reception.
• Fast beep – there is a reception (which is currently the maximum signal
obtained).
2. Take the unit to the selected location and align the antenna in the link’s
direction. Listen to the buzzer tone level. Any sound (fast, medium or slow)
indicates a reception.
3. Change the antenna alignment to the left, right, up and down in order to scan
for the maximum reception point.
4. After scan is complete, align the antenna to the location where the buzzer
beeps at the fast rate, indication the maximum reception.
5. Mount and secure the unit by fastening the mounting screws.
The buzzer is automatically shut down within 20 minutes. You can reactivate it or
shut it down manually using the Link Manager advanced window.
Note: During this procedure, do not disconnect the unit from power.

Protection from Lightning
US National Electric Department of Energy Handbook 1996 specifies that radio and
television lead-in cables must have adequate surge protection at or near the point of
entry to the building. The code specifies that any shielded cable from a detached
antenna must have the shield directly connected to a 10 AWG wire that connects to
the building ground electrode.
The ground wire shall be terminated with UL listed lug with a diameter of 0.2 inch
(5.2 mm).
The ground lug will need to be suitable for terminating on aluminum materials, such
as the use of an aluminum connector and aluminum ground conductor.

WipAir 6000/3000 was designed to work with co-located antennas. That means that
two or more units can be mounted close to each other.
Time synchronization allows reusing frequencies between co-located links and
configured with the Link Manager advanced window.
The synchronization signal is generated by an external GPS (1 PPS).
To configure time synchronization, set all MUs to synchronization Enable and Slave
mode.
Please refer to WipAir_6000_3000_configuration_manual.pdf for more information.
Note: The distance between any two antennas should be at least 50 cm.
