Introduction
Marquee™ P2P Bridge
Quick Start Guide
Figure 2 – Detail Showing Outdoor Unit Pole Mount
Bracket
The Marquee P2P Bridge (MB-49) is a complete 4.9 GHz
wireless point-to-point (p-p) or point-to-multipoint (p-mp)
system that links two Ethernet LANs together. It consists
of two high-gain directional antennas and a pair of
OFDM radios in a rugged outdoor enclosure. They
connect to the LAN's Ethernet Switch on each end with
an outdoor-rated Ethernet cable ordered separately. It is
ideal for connecting two office LANs together, or for
linking a WIPOP site to an Internet backbone. The
Marquee P2P Bridge uses TurboCell software which
supports VLAN bridging (802.1q protocol).
The Marquee P2P Bridge will accommodate virtually an
unlimited number of client MAC addresses on each side
of the link. The unit currently supports a single channel.

YDI EtherAnt outdoor Ethernet cables must be ordered
separately. Available lengths are 50, 100, 200, or 300 ft.
Figure 1 – Marquee P2P Bridge Kit Contents
The Marquee P2P Bridge is intended for professional
installation only on fixed outdoor structures. Please
review the entire manual before powering up or
deploying these units.

Installation
NOTE: All connectors must be properly water-proofed
with all-weather electrical tape, Permagum, or
equivalent. Do not use Silicon glue.
The Marquee P2P Bridge radio unit is installed by means
of a pole mount adaptor bracket that is secured to the
pole using two metal hose type clamps. Figure 1 shows
the hardware provided to mount the outdoor RF Unit.

4.
3.
Ensuring that there is no DC power applied to the
DC Power Injector, plug the round connector of the
outdoor Ethernet cable into the rear jack of the unit
(Fig. 5), making sure the notch is correctly aligned
with the tab on the jack as shown in Figure 6, then
turn the round locking nut clockwise as you push in
until it securely fastens onto the jack.
Attach the other end of the outdoor Ethernet cable
to the Cat 5 DC Power Injector at port RJ-45
labeled “To ANT.”
NOTE: The Cat 5 DC Power Injector is not in a
waterproof enclosure and must be protected
from the weather. It can be permanently
mounted to a surface using the double stick
tape found on the back of it.
WARNING:
Please verify that the round connector
is properly plugged into the rear jack of the antenna
prior to connecting DC power because it is possible
to push it in the wrong way if enough force is used.
If DC Power is applied while you are attempting to
insert the round connector into the jack, it is
possible that, as you rotate the plug in an effort to
find the key, DC power pins will momentarily touch
the Ethernet pins. If this happens the Ethernet
circuitry on the board will be damaged. Any
harm caused by this action will not be covered by
the factory warranty and will be a billable repair.
Figure 5 – Connecting the Outdoor Ethernet Cable
5.
Connect the Ethernet cable labeled “To PC or
Router” from the Cat 5 DC Power Injector to your
router, switch or hub. If you connect to a computer
or PC, a crossover cable or adapter will be needed.
6.
If your unit is placed on a non-metal pole or
structure, install a #6 AWG insulated ground cable
(not provided) to the ground connector in the back
of the radio as shown in Figure 7. Use a selfthreading screw and a flat washer to fasten the
earth lug. This provides safeguard against lightning.
For maximum protection, YDI also recommends the
use of its optional surge protected DC Injector
available from your YDI dealer (part No. 304800620-002). This DC Injector has an additional
wire to be connected to ground as shown on Fig. 8.

Protected DC Injector
The Windows -based YDI Configurator software can be
installed on a PC or workstation running Windows
98/ME, 2000, NT, or XP. This software has a GUI
(Graphical User Interface), which makes it easy to use.
The program allows you to locally or remotely perform
the following procedures:

IMPORTANT:
Your Marquee P2P Bridge units must
be on the same subnet as the computer with the YDI
Configurator installed, or have a routable IP address, in
order to access it. If not, you will get a status of Offline
for the unit (see the Status column in Figure 10) even if
the LEDs show activity. To configure the units, change
the IP address of your computer to a 10.1.1.x sub-net.
Once you have access to the unit, you can then assign
a new IP address to it by clicking on the Setup tab and
IP Host button.
Plug the antenna coaxial cable into the N-type
female connector of the unit as shown in Figure 9.
Plug the AC Adapter into an AC outlet and connect
it to the “DC Power” jack on the Cat 5 DC Power
Injector. Perform antenna alignment procedures at
both sites. Proper antenna alignment is crucial for
the correct operation of the Marquee Bridge 49
system and should only be accomplished by
experienced professionals. After that your
installation is complete.
Note that the YDI Configurator program is also used to
manage AP-Plus units. Therefore you will see many
grayed out options, features and settings. These only
become available when you are connected to an APPlus, Orinoco AP, or router that has all these features
available.
WARNING:
The P2P must be operated with a
proper antenna or microwave terminator plugged
into the N-type female jack of the unit. Operating
the unit with nothing connected to the antenna jack
may result in damage to the TX section of the unit
which will not be covered by the factory warranty
and will be a billable repair.
To install the YDI Configurator in Windows, insert the
YDI CD-ROM included in the Marquee kit into the
appropriate drive of your computer. Using your
Windows Explorer, open the directory \Management
Software\YDI Configurator and run the Set Up
program (YDI Configurator vx.xx.exe). Simply follow the
instructions on the screen which will guide you through
the entire process. After completing the YDI
Configurator installation, you are ready to set up your
system.
