Compliance

General

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Motorola could void the user’s authority to operate the system.

NOTE: This system has achieved Type Approval in various countries around the world. This means that the system has been tested against various local technical regulations and found to comply. The frequency band in which the system operates is ‘unlicensed’ (except from the 4.9 Ghz product) and the system can be used provided it does not cause interference. Further, it is not guaranteed protection against interference from other products and installations.

1

The system has basically been shown to comply with the limits for emitted spurious radiation for a Class B digital device1, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules in the USA as well as comparable regulations in other countries. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to other equipment, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the Outdoor Unit (ODU).

Increase the separation between the equipment and ODU.

Connect the equipment into a power outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult your installer or supplier for help.

Deployment and Operation

The Radio Regulations of various countries’ limits constrain the operation of radio products generally. In particular the local regulator may limit the amount of conducted or radiated transmitter power and may require registration of the radio link.

The power transmitted by the PTP 400 Series is controlled by the use of Region-specific License Keys.

The following examples show how the regulatory limits apply in some specific countries at the current time. Operators should note that regulations are subject to change.

Contact your supplier/installer to ensure that your product is set for the correct License Key for your Country/Region and to ensure that you have fulfilled all the local regulatory requirements, especially if you are intending to use a link with external antennas. Footnotes to the table below indicate countries where registration of the link is currently mandatory.

1 Class B Digital Device, A digital device that is marketed for use in a residential environment notwithstanding use in commercial, business and industrial environments.

2 Avoiding Hazards

2.1Preventing Overexposure to RF Energy

Caution To protect from overexposure to RF energy, install the radios for the 400 family of wireless solutions so as to provide and maintain the minimum separation distances from all persons as shown in Table 3.

When the system is operational, avoid standing directly in front of the antenna. Strong RF fields are present when the transmitter is on. The Outdoor Unit (ODU) must not be deployed in a location where it is possible for people to stand or walk inadvertently in front of the antenna.

At these and greater separation distances, the power density from the RF field is below generally accepted limits for the general population.

Note These are conservative distances that include compliance margins. In the case of the reflector, the distance is even more conservative because the equation used models the reflector as a point source and ignores its physical dimensions.

2.1.1Calculations for Separation Distances and Power Compliance Margins Limits and guidelines for RF exposure come from:

US FCC limits for the general population. See the FCC web site at http://www.fcc.gov, and the policies, guidelines, and requirements in Part 1 of Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations, as well as the guidelines and suggestions for evaluating compliance in FCC OET Bulletin 65.

Health Canada limits for the general population. See the Health Canada web site at http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/rpb and Safety Code 6.

ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) guidelines for the general public. See the ICNIRP web site at http://www.icnirp.de/ and Guidelines for Limiting Exposure to Time-Varying Electric, Magnetic, and Electromagnetic Fields.

20

Peak power density in the far field of a radio frequency point source is calculated as follows:

Rearranging terms to solve for distance yields

d = 4PπGS

(Note: Allowance should be made for any TDD structure employed)

Notes:

1.The regulations cover the power averaged over a 6 minute period.

2.At 5.4GHz the product is generally to a fixed EIRP which can be achieved with the Integrated Antenna. If there are no EIRP limits, use the distance calculations for 5.7GHz.

3.At 5.7GHz, for antennas between 2ft and 6ft, alter the distance proportionally to the antenna gain.

3 Getting Started

3.1 For Your Safety

WARNING: Use extreme care when installing antennas near power lines.

WARNING: Use extreme care when working at heights.

WARNING: The Outdoor unit (ODU) for the PTP 400 Series Bridge must be properly grounded to protect against lightning. It is the user’s responsibility to install the equipment in accordance with Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984 or Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code. These codes describe correct installation procedures for grounding the ODU, mast, lead-in wire and discharge unit, size of grounding conductors and connection requirements for grounding electrodes. It is recommended that installation of the ODU be contracted to a professional installer.

WARNING: The ODU for the PTP 400 Series Bridge MUST be grounded to a Protective Earth as described in Section 7.7.5 “Grounding the Installation” of this Installation Manual and in accordance with the Local Electrical Regulations.

WARNING: It is recommended that the supplied Power Indoor Plus (PIDU Plus) – PTP 400 Series is used to power the PTP 400 Series Bridge ODU. The use of other power sources may invalidate safety approval and affect your warranty.

WARNING: When using alternate DC supplies (via the PIDU Plus DC in terminals as described in Section 3.3.3 ”Redundancy and Alternate Powering Configurations”), such as battery-backed DC power source, the supply MUST comply with the following requirements:

The voltage and polarity is correct and is applied to the correct terminals in the PTP 400 Series Bridge PIDU Plus

The power source is rated as SELV

The power source is rated to supply at least 1A continuously, and

The power source cannot provide more than the Energy Hazard Limit as defined by IEC/EN/UL6090, Clause 2.5, Limited Power (The Energy Hazard Limit is 240VA)

CAUTION: When the system is operational, avoid standing directly in front of the antenna. Strong RF fields are present when the transmitter is on. The Outdoor Unit (ODU) must not be deployed in a location where it is possible for people to stand or walk inadvertently in front of the antenna.

CAUTION: Users and installers should note that in an emergency the mains power supply is the primary disconnect device.

22

CAUTION: Safety will be compromised if external quality cables are not used for connections that will be exposed to the weather.

CAUTION: Safety will be compromised if a different power supply is used than the one supplied by Motorola as part of the system. This will also invalidate your warranty.

3.3Product Description

This User Manual is specifically written for the PTP 400 Series of point-to-point broadband wireless solutions. The PTP 400 Series Bridge has been developed to provide Point-to-Point data connectivity via a 4.9 GHz, 5.4 GHz or 5.8 GHz wireless Ethernet bridge operating at broadband data rates. The PTP 400 Series Bridge is aimed at a wide range of applications. An example application is an enterprise that has a requirement to connect together the Local Area Network (LAN) of two or more buildings as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 - Typical PTP 400 Series Bridge Deployment

The PTP 400 Series Bridge offers true non-line-of-sight (NLOS) operation by using a combination of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) modulation and Multiple-In Multiple-Out (MIMO) techniques. These technologies enable the PTP 400 Series Bridge to drive through foliage and around buildings to such an extent that almost universal coverage can be expected at short range.

A PTP 400 Series Bridge system consists of a pair of identical devices that are deployed one at each end of the link. At installation, the user sets up one unit as the Master and the other as the Slave. Either unit can be configured as master or slave.

25

Each end of the link consists of:

An integrated outdoor transceiver unit containing all the radio and networking electronics hereafter referred to as the Outdoor Unit (ODU).

An indoor connection box containing a mains power supply, status indicators and network connection. Hereafter referred to as the Power Indoor Unit Plus (PIDU Plus).

Units will normally be supplied pre-configured as a link.

Power is fed into the PIDU Plus from the mains via a standard “figure of eight” mains plug. The network connection is presented to the user at the PIDU Plus via an RJ45 socket. Connection between the ODU and PIDU Plus is made using standard shielded CAT5 UV resistant cable. The spare twisted pairs of the cable are used to feed power from the PIDU Plus to the ODU.

26

3.3.1The Outdoor Unit (ODU)

The ODU (Figure 2) is a self-contained unit. It houses both radio and networking electronics. Also shown in Figure 2 is a Lightning protection unit, see Section 11 “Lightning Protection”. A single CAT 5 cable feeds the unit. Power is fed to the unit via the brown/brown white pair connected to pins 7 and 8 and the blue/blue white pair connected to pins 4 and 5 of the RJ45 plugs and sockets employed. It should be noted that this powering arrangement is not standard Power over Ethernet (PoE). The ODU for the PTP 400 Series Bridge should only be deployed using the supplied PTP 400 Series Bridge Power Indoor Unit (PIDU Plus).

WARNING: All four power conductors MUST be connected.

Figure 2 - PTP 400 Series Bridge Outdoor Unit (ODU)

27

3.3.2The PIDU Plus – PTP 400 Series

The PTP 400 Series Bridge PIDU Plus is used to generate the ODU supply voltage from the mains supply. The PIDU Plus also houses a status indicator driven from the ODU.

Figure 3 - Power Indoor Unit (PIDU Plus) – PTP 400 Series

The front panel contains indicators showing the status of the power and Ethernet connections. The power indicator is illuminated when the PIDU Plus is receiving mains power.

The Ethernet indicator normally illuminates when the Ethernet link is working, flashing when there is Ethernet activity. The fact that it lights also indicates that the ODU is powered. At power up the LED will flash 10 times to indicate that a correct start up sequence has occurred. See Section 9 for further fault finding information.

The bottom of the PIDU Plus houses the Ethernet connection via RJ-45 socket, an entry point for the PIDU Plus/ODU cabling and the Recovery Switch.
