You can configure the Access Point Controller to communicate with IntelliVue 1.4 GHz IntelliVue Smart-hopping Access Points (APs). IntelliVue 1.4 GHz APs can only communicate with 1.4 GHz IntelliVue Patient Monitors.

IntelliVue Smart-hopping networks utilize a cognitive radio that senses the RF environment and adapt to it. Dynamic wireless channel allocation ensures best use of available wireless spectrum. The IntelliVue Smart-hopping infrastructure is designed to co-exist with other 802.11 wireless deployments.

Figure 1-2: IntelliV e Smart-hopping Core Access Point

The Core AP is a mod lar antenna infrastructure consisting of a Core AP (CAP) with up to two connected Model ITS4846A Remote Antennas (RAs). A 74-foot (22.6 m) coaxial and unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable bundle is used to connect a Remote Antenna to a Core-P. Core APs are only available for the 1.4 GHz IntelliVue Smart- Drafthopping infras ructure.

The effective range of the Core AP and of each Remote Antenna is typically 32 feet. The Co e AP lways supports a maximum of 18 IntelliVue Patient Monitors

rega dless of its component configuration. A Core AP alone supports 18 IntelliVue Patient Monitors. When used with a single RA, the Core AP supports nine IntelliVue Patient Monitors and its connected RA supports nine IntelliVue Patient Monitors (9+9=18). When used with two RAs, the Core AP supports six IntelliVue Patient Monitors and its connected RAs each support six IntelliVue Patient Monitors (6+6+6=18).

When monitored patients are ambulatory, data roaming is handled seamlessly between the other IntelliVue Access Points in the coverage area. The Core AP and each RA are always used with their two supplied antennas installed. The Core AP and its attached Remote Antennas can be mounted out of the way on corridor walls, or above or below ceiling tiles.

Chapter 1: Overview

Core AP Mounting Options

Wall-mounting hardware is standard. An optional above/below ceiling tile mount kit (P/N 862415 Option K05 (453564052201)) is available that can be used with both the Core AP and its Remote Antennas.

Power Source

The IntelliVue Smart-hopping 1.4 GHz Core Access Point receives its 48 VDC operating power source via its Ethernet LAN cabling from Power over Ethernet via the IntelliVue Smart-hopping Sync Unit. The AP is not equipped with a power socket. The AP consumes less than 13.8W, and internally generates a variety of voltages used for its internal components.

The CAT-5 UTP cable within the 74 ft.-cable bundle carries 5.5 VDC power, Transmit

and Receive control signals, and Antenna Diversity signals from the Core AP to a

connected Remote Antenna.

2013

 

The 75 Ohm coaxial cable within the 74 ft.-cable bundle carries RF and DC sense signals from the Core AP to a connected Remote Antenna.

The IntelliVue Smart-hopping 1.4 GHz Core28,Access Point receives a synchronization signal from a network of Sync Units that enables an IntelliVue Patient Monitor to hand over data seamlessly between APs within the coverage area when a patient is ambulatory and to transferAugustdata to he IntelliVue Information Center without interruption. Each Sync Unit provides ynchronization for up to 12 APs. The Sync Unit also distributes the common reference clock signal needed by the IntelliVue Smart-hopping infrastr ct re as a whole.

IntelliVue Patient Monitor Mobility

as follows.

The IntelliVue Smart-hopping infrastructure supports seamless roaming of IntelliVue PatientDraftMoni ors within the area of coverage. This roaming is accomplished via communic ions between the IntelliVue Patient Monitors and the Access Points (AP)

As an IntelliVue Patient Monitor is moved around a building, it automatically monitors the quality of the wireless link to its current AP (and it also detects the presence of other APs). When the quality starts to deteriorate, the IntelliVue Patient Monitor automatically establishes a new connection to another AP.

The IntelliVue Patient Monitor remains connected to two APs for a finite time, and thus the same data is received by these APs. During this time, information for header compression and other data for the connection is routed to the new AP.

One of the two APs subsequently releases the radio connection. If a packet is in progress when a handover occurs, then the packet is reassembled co-operatively between the two APs.

The PIIC or PIICix receives an unbroken flow of complete IP packets.

1-4

Firmware Updates

A General Description of the IntelliVue Smart-hopping Core Access Point

Technical Alerts

Each AP is configured to signal alert conditions that are viewed at the IIC in the wireless status log.

The IntelliVue Access Point is configured to raise alerts on error conditions. The alerts are sent over the IntelliVue Smart-hopping/ICN Ethernet LAN infrastructure to a monitoring station or Database Sever. The Access Point raises an alert if:

if data loss exceeds the configured threshold

it loses its synchronization signal

For small systems having only one AP and no Sync Unit, the AP can be configured to suppress the loss of synchronization signal alert.

Note that the IntelliVue Smart-hopping APC provides System Alerts such as loss of synchronization, high data loss, AP hardware failure, and over capacity. Additionally,

when redundant APCs are installed, the APC will provide a System Alert for APC hardware or software failure.

2013

Firmware on the IntelliVue Smart-hopping 1.4 GHz Core Access Point is upgraded from the Access Point Controller by using the Upgrade Tool. Refer to the service document entitled IntelliVue Smart-hopping Infrastructure Installation and Service Guide for details. The AP firmware image is provided on the Smart-hopping

Telemetry Service Tool CD-ROM.

• Serial Port - The serial port is used only for manufacturing purposes.

• UTP Cable Connectors to Remote Antennas - Two standard RJ-45 connectors are provided for the UTP cables that connect the Core AP to its Remote Antennas.Each UTP cable carries 5.5 VDC power, Transmit, Receive and Antenna Diversity Control signals to the Remote Antenna.

• Coaxial Cable Connectors to Remote Antennas - Two standard 75 Ohm connectors are provided for the coaxial cables2013that connect the Core AP to its Remote Antennas. Each coaxial cable carries RF and DC sense signals from the Remote Antenna.

Note the following connectors on the Remote Antenna:

UTP Cable Connector to Core AP - A standard RJ-45 connector is provided for the UTP cable that connect the Remo e Antenna to its Core AP. The UTP cable carries 5.5 VDC power, Tran mi , Receive and Antenna Diversity Control signals to the Remote Antenna.

for the coaxial cable that connects the Remote Antenna to its Core AP. The coaxial cable carries RF and DC sense signals from the Core AP.28,August

Note If an installed,-powered Remote Antenna becomes disconnected from its Core AP viaDraftits Coax/UTP cable bundle, you must reconnect the Coax/UTP cable bundle to the RA nd Core AP, and then cycle power to the connected Core AP before the RA will e-est blish communications with the Core AP.

IntelliVue Smart-hopping Core AP Status LEDs

The IntelliVue Smart-hopping Core AP provides the following status LEDs.

Wired/Ethernet Activity - The Core AP provides two LEDs to indicate wired/ Ethernet activity to the IntelliVue Smart-hopping infrastructure. During normal operation, these LEDs indicate the following information:

-Link LED - Link present/Ethernet connection. Lights GREEN (ON) when a pass-through link is present - OFF when not present.

-Act LED - Wired network activity. Flashes YELLOW (ON) when there is activity over the wired network.

Wireless/RF Activity - The Core AP provides three LEDs to indicate wireless/RF activity. During normal operation, these LEDs indicate the following information:

-Power/Sync LED - GREEN (ON) when power and synchronization signal is present. 2013

-Radio LED - Normally OFF (not lit) - flashes green to indicate wireless network activity.

The Remote Antenna provides the following status LEDs.

• Remote Antenna Status LEDs - The green and yellow LEDs above the

RJ-45 UTP cable connector to the Core AP provide status on the Remote

Antenna as summarized below.
