1 Introduction
THIS ORDERING GUIDE covers the Cambium ePMP Platform. It is intended to provide a
structured guide to ordering a solution with any accessories and ancillary items
for a successful installation.
The key steps involved in planning and ordering your system are:
REGULATORY PLANNING: To begin, you need to contact the applicable radio regulator in
1
2
your area to identify any restrictions or limitation imposed on radio equipment operat-
ing in your planned RF band and to determine whether or not you need to register your
PMP network. As the user of the radio equipment, it is your responsibility to ensure that
your system complies with any regulatory guidelines imposed by the local regulator.
SITE PLANNING: We recommend that you complete a site survey to identify the many
considerations critical for successful site selection such as the availability of tower or
rooftop space, the location of the grounding system, best positioning of the APs, SMs
and BHs, aesthetics and other permission-based issues, and maximum cable lengths
required for your deployment.

LINK AND SECTOR PLANNING: You need to determine link and sector-planning factors
such as path obstructions, risk of interference, path and link loss, maximum power levels
permitted, and coverage requirements.
SPECTRUM ANALYSIS: One of the most important elements in your planning process is the
analysis of spectrum usage and signal strength needed to occupy the spectrum you are
planning to use. For a PMP system, you need to plan your sector coverage to determine
how many APs will be needed and what sector size will be required to provide adequate
coverage for the deployment. For PTP links you need to determine whether there is
available spectrum to accomplish your desired goal.
PREPARING AN EPMP ORDER: Once you have identified all the regulatory requirements
and planned the site, link, sector coverage and spectrum requirements, you are ready to
compile your order. This Ordering Guide provides the part numbers, product descrip-
tions, instructions, and resources to help you complete an ePMP order.

Deployment Configurations
The ePMP Solution is very versatile. Each of the radio units can be configured to be an Access Point,
a Subscriber Module or a Point to Point radio. When the connectorized radio is combined with an
external antenna, a wide variety of configurations can be supported with the solution.
The figure below illustrates the dierent configurations that can be deployed.

When you are ready to prepare your order, the following equipment components can be selected
for an ePMP network.

IF CONFIGURED AS AN ACCESS POINT:
Determine the Number of Radios Required based on the
coverage area and the sector configuration (90 degree or 120
degree) selected
IF CONFIGURED AS PTP RADIO:
Determine the Number of Radios Required based on the number of links needed
POWER SUPPLY:
A 30 V Power Supply which allows for Gigabit Ethernet operation is included with the Radio
Alternatively, the Radio can be powered by the Cambium
CMM3 and CMM4 or a third party 802.3af compliant powering
device
ANTENNA:
4-sector dual polarity (H+V)
3-sector dual polarity (H+V)
Alternative configuration (verify regulations prior to purchase)
IF CONFIGURED AS A SUBSCRIBER MODULE:
Determine the Number of SMs required
IF CONFIGURED AS AN ACCESS POINT:
Determine the Number of Radios Required based on the coverage area. The integrated antenna has a beam width of approximately 24 degrees
IF CONFIGURED AS PTP RADIO:
Determine the Number of Radios Required based on the number of links needed
POWER SUPPLY:
A 30 V Power Supply which allows for Fast Ethernet operation
is included with the Radio
Alternatively, the Radio can be powered by any of the PMP100
or PMP4X0 SM Power Supplies
ANTENNA:
The ePMP Integrated radio includes a 13 dBi, 24 degree antenna
SURGE SUPPRESSOR:
The Connectorized, Synchronized radios include built-in surge
suppression – no external suppression is required at the device
SHOULD ADD EXTERNAL UNITS AT:
Cable entrance point leading to Building entrance
On the bottom of the tower/pole near the grounding bar
If the Ethernet connection of the Radio is to be operated in
10/100 Mbps mode, then the 600SSH Surge suppressor can
be utilized. Otherwise a 3rd party gigabit Ethernet compatible
surge suppressor should be used. Such a surge suppressor
(Models # AL-CAT6JW and AL-CAT6HPJW) is available from
L-Com.

SURGE SUPPRESSOR:
The Integrated radios include built-in surge suppression – no
external suppression is required at the device
SHOULD ADD EXTERNAL UNITS (600SSH) AT:
–Cable entrance point leading to Building entrance
–On the bottom of the tower/pole near the grounding bar (if
deployed on a tower)

2.1 Connectorized Synchronized Radios
Each module contains both radio and networking electronics supplied in a connectorized configura-
tion for use with an external antenna. Connectorized modules with external antennas are designed to
cope with more dicult radio conditions. When configured as an Access Point and operating in a 20
MHz channel configuration, each connectorized, synchronized radio module can provide a capacity
of up to 100 Mbps. As an Access Point, the module can support up to 120 SMs. For an optimal per-
forming system, it is recommended that no more than 60 SMs be connected to one Access Point.
