Using a Backhaul Unit

If the installation location does not provide a place to connect to the internet (for example, on an electricity pole), you need to use a backhaul unit.
There are two types of backhaul units:
A backhaul unit that provides its own power
A backhaul unit that uses power supplied by the WS-410
NOTE: The antennas on the WS-410 must be higher than the antennas on the
backhaul unit.

Installing the Wavion WS-410 Metro Access Point
The following backhaul unit can be powered by the WS-410:
Motorola Canopy uses 24VDC PoE input voltage. Please use the correct WS410 product
version to power the Canopy unit.
Alvarion VL uses 48VDC PoE input voltage (Please refer to Chapter 7: Installation
Accessories on page 53 for details on connecting the Alvarion unit to the WS410)
WARNING: Make sure the backhaul unit has the correct voltage appropriate for the
installation.
F
NOTE: When using a backhaul unit that uses power supplied by the WS-410,
connect the Ethernet cable to the port labeled ETH B.
NOTE: When using a Wavion injector, the WS-410 cannot supply power to the
backhaul unit.
NOTE: Make sure to use the correct part number for the backhaul unit to avoid
causing damage to the unit.

Safety Information for the Wavion WS-410

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified equipment. Proper operation of the Wavion WS-410 according to the instructions found in this manual results in user exposure that is substantially below the FCC recommended limits.
Follow these guidelines to ensure safe operation of the Wavion WS-410:
Do not touch or move the antennas while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
Make sure the antennas are connected when operating the radio or attempting to t ransmit
data, otherwise, the radio may be damaged.
Do not hold the antenna to be close to or touching any exposed parts of the body,
especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
The use of wireless devices on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA).
The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limi ted to the constraints posed by
the safety directors of such environments.
The use of wireless devices in hospitals is res tricted to the limits set forth by each
hospital.
