Important safety information

       This section describes important safety guidelines that must be observed by personnel
       installing or operating PTP 800 equipment.



        To prevent loss of life or physical injury, observe the safety guidelines in this
        section.



Power lines
       Exercise extreme care when working near power lines.



Working at heights
       Exercise extreme care when working at heights.



Grounding and protective earth
       The outdoor unit (ODU) and compact modem unit (CMU) for the PTP 800 must be properly
       grounded. It is the user’s responsibility to install the equipment in accordance with
       national regulations. In the USA, follow Section 810 of the National Electric Code,
       ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984 (USA). In Canada, follow Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical
       Code. These codes describe correct installation procedures for grounding the ODU, CMU,
       mast, lead-in wire and discharge unit, size of grounding conductors and connection
       requirements for grounding electrodes. Other regulations may apply in different countries
       and therefore it is recommended that installation of the outdoor unit be contracted to a
       professional installer.
       The PTP 800 ODU and CMU must be grounded to a protective earth in accordance with
       the Local Electrical Regulations.

Important safety information




Electrical safety
     The power cable connections must meet International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
     safety standards.

     Always power down and unplug the equipment before servicing.
     When using alternative DC supplies, such as battery-backed DC power source, the supply
     must be SELV rated.



Primary disconnect device
     The power supply must include a primary disconnect device with appropriate fusing.



External cables
     Safety may be compromised if outdoor rated cables are not used for connections that will
     be exposed to the weather.



RF exposure near the antenna
     Strong radio frequency (RF) fields will be present close to the antenna when the
     transmitter is on. Always mute the transmitter before undertaking maintenance activities
     in front of the antenna.
     Ensure that people cannot stand or walk in front of the antenna within ± 10 degrees of the
     antenna axis and within the minimum distances listed in Table 208 (ETSI) or Table 209
     (FCC). The minimum distances in these tables have been calculated using worst-case
     assumptions. Reduced separation distances may be appropriate under some
     circumstances. Further details are provided in Radiation hazard assessment on page 4-85.



Thermal safety
     The CMU may be hot to the touch when in operation. The CMU must not be operated in
     ambient temperatures exceeding 40 deg C unless mounted in a Restricted Access
     Location. For more information, see Maximum operating ambient temperature for the
     CMU on page 5-76.

      The main components are:
      •     Compact modem unit (CMU): The CMU converts data signals between Ethernet
            frames and a modulated intermediate frequency (IF) carrier.
      •     Outdoor unit (ODU): The ODU converts signals between a modulated intermediate
            frequency (IF) and radio band frequencies.
      •     Indoor RF unit (IRFU): The IRFU is an alternative to the ODU. It is installed indoors,
            for easier maintenance and security.
      •     Antennas and couplers: Cambium supplies high performance, low profile antennas
            for PTP 800 frequency bands in sizes from 0.3 m (1 ft) to 3.7 m (12 ft). These can be
            mounted directly to the ODUs, or remotely via waveguide. In 1+1 links, ODUs installed
            at the same end can share an antenna through the use of coupler mounting kits.
      •     Cabling and lightning protection:
            o   ODU platforms: The CMU is connected to the ODU using CNT-400 coaxial cable (IF
                cable), lightning protection units (LPUs) and grounding cables. In remote mount
                configurations,.
            o   IRFU platforms: The IRFU is connected to the antenna using flexible waveguide and
                premium elliptical waveguide.



          The generic term RFU is used in this user guide (and in the web interface) to include the
          ODU and IRFU.



Link types
      The PTP 800 supports the following link types:
      •     1+0 single link: A 1+0 single link transports Ethernet frames between two sites. Each
            link end has one CMU, one RFU and one antenna.
      •     1+1 Hot Standby link: A 1+1 Hot Standby link transports Ethernet frames between
            two sites and provides protection against single point equipment failure. This is
            achieved by the deployment of extra equipment which can automatically take over the
            operation of the link in case of equipment failure. Each end of the link requires two
            CMUs, either one or two antennas and either two ODUs for outdoor deployments or a
            1+1 capable IRFU for indoor deployments. A 1+1 Hot Standby Link can also be
            configured to support Receive Spatial Diversity which requires two antennas at each
            end of the link. For indoor deployments, a 1+1 Rx SD capable IRFU is required.
      •     2+0 two links sharing antennas: A 2+0 configuration consists of two 1+0 links
            between the same two sites, where the antenna at each site is shared between the two
            1+0 links. In this user guide and in PTP LINKPlanner, these two links are called link ‘A’
            and link ‘B’. Link A and link B must operate on different frequencies and will generally
            require separate radio licenses. The antennas in a 2+0 link may be single-polar or
            dual-polar.

Compact modem unit (CMU)

      This section describes the PTP 800 CMU and its interfaces.



CMU description
      The PTP 800 compact modem unit (CMU) (Figure 3) is mounted indoors and provides the
      Ethernet interface to the network. It converts the Ethernet frames to a data stream which
      then modulates an intermediate frequency (IF) signal which is sent to the radio frequency
      unit (RFU), either an outdoor unit (ODU) or an indoor radio frequency unit (IRFU).
      In the other direction, the CMU demodulates a similar IF signal from the RFU and
      reconstructs Ethernet frames to send to the network. Both IF signals are carried over a
      coaxial IF cable connecting the CMU to the RFU. The CMU also provides power to the
      ODU and this is also carried over the coaxial cable. The IRFU is powered separately.

      The CMU is mounted on a shelf, on a wall (using the provided bracket), or in a standard
      19 inch rack (using the optional CMU rack mounting kit). It is ideally suited to applications
      where space is limited.

        Interface                 Function

        ODU                       This is a standard N-type female connector, used to connect
                                  the CMU to the ODU or IRFU transceiver via IF cable. The IF
                                  cable carries the following multiplexed signals:
                                       Power supply at –48 V dc
                                       Transmit signal at 350 MHz
                                       Receive signal at 140 MHz

                                       RFU control and status signals



                                    Do not connect or disconnect the IF cable when the –48
                                    V supply is applied to the CMU.

        Management                This is a 10baseT and 100baseT Ethernet port, used to
                                  connect the CMU to the management network when ‘out-of-
                                  band’ management is implemented. It is not used when ‘in-
                                  band’ management is implemented. For more information on
                                  the Ethernet interfaces see Data network specifications on
                                  page 4-71.
                                  For 1+1 Hot Standby protection, spare pins in the
                                  management port provide the protection interface between
                                  the two CMUs at one end of a link. For more information see

       Interface               Function

       Recovery                This switch is used to start the CMU in recovery mode.
                               Recovery mode provides a means to recover from serious
                               configuration errors including lost or forgotten passwords
                               and unknown IP addresses. For more information see
                               Recovery mode on page 1-62.
                               Recovery mode also allows new main application software to
                               be loaded even when the integrity of the existing main
                               application software has been compromised.

       Data (copper port)      This is a 100baseT and 1000baseT Ethernet port, used to
                               connect the CMU to the customer data network. In the ‘in-
                               band’ management mode, the system is managed through
                               the Data port and management traffic is multiplexed with
                               customer traffic. For more information on Ethernet
                               interfaces see Data network specifications on page 4-71.

       Data (fiber SFP port)   This is a standard small form-factor pluggable (SFP) gigabit
                               interface, used to connect the CMU to the customer data
                               network via a fiber-optic module. When a supported SFP
                               module is present and is working, and the fiber carrier is
                               present, the customer traffic network (and in-band
                               management network, if enabled) connects through fiber,
                               and the copper data port is not used. If the fiber link fails or
                               loses the carrier signal, the Ethernet service falls back to the
                               copper LAN connection. The fiber SFP port is a Class 1 laser
                               product, safe under all conditions of normal operation. For
                               more information on Ethernet interfaces see Wireless
                               specifications on page 4-19.

       -48V DC Power           This a socket for connecting the CMU to a standard –48 V dc
                               telecommunications supply, with supply range –40.5 V to –60
                               V. The 0 V (positive connection) is grounded at the CMU
                               casing, IF cable outer shield and ODU casing.

       Ground stud             This M5 ground stud is used to ground the CMU via the
                               supplied lug. The ground cable is fitted to a low impedance
                               ground point. This protects personnel and equipment from
                               hazardous voltages caused by lightning strikes.
                               For a 1+1 Hot Standby protected link, both CMUs are
                               connected to a common ground.

Outdoor unit (ODU)

       This section describes the PTP 800 ODU and its interfaces.



ODU description
       The PTP 800 outdoor unit (ODU) provides the necessary frequency conversion and
       amplification of signals which pass between the CMU and antenna.

       In the transmit direction, the ODU takes the fixed intermediate frequency (IF) signal
       provided by the CMU and converts and amplifies it to a configured licensed band radio
       frequency signal for transmission at the antenna. In the receive direction, the ODU
       provides amplification and down conversion of a licensed band signal received at the
       antenna interface. The result is a fixed IF signal which is passed to the CMU for
       demodulation.

       ODUs are available in all licensed bands supported by PTP 800 (see Supported bands and
       frequencies on page 1-3 for the full list of supported bands). A given licensed band is
       generally split into sub-bands where a given sub-band is supported by a pair of ODUs. One
       ODU is designed to transmit at the high frequency side of the Frequency Division Duplex
       (FDD), the other at the low frequency side. The ODU transmit and receive frequencies are
       configurable within a sub-band.

       The ODU is designed for outdoor operation, either mounting directly to the back of an
       antenna or mounted separately using a Remote Mount Kit which then connects to the
       antenna with flexible waveguide.

       The ODU also provides an interface which allows the installer to monitor the receive signal
       level when aligning antennas.

       Alternative ODU platforms
       There are two alternative ODU platforms: ODU-A (Figure 5) or ODU-B (Figure 6).

       Figure 5 ODU-A




       Figure 6 ODU-B




       ODU-B is available in selected regions and bands. It is the preferred choice when
       available, as it offers the following advantages over ODU-A:
       •   Superior ACM characteristics
       •   Higher transmit power
       •   Lower power dissipation

       Do not install an ODU-A and an ODU-B in the same link.
       For more information about the capabilities and availability of ODU-A and ODU-B, refer to
       Ordering ODUs on page 2-69.

Indoor RF unit (IRFU)

       This section describes the PTP 800 IRFU and its interfaces.



IRFU description
       The PTP 800 indoor RF unit (IRFU) (Figure 11) converts signals between a modulated
       intermediate frequency (IF) and radio band frequencies for transmission over a line-of-
       sight link. The IRFU can be chosen as an alternative to the ODU to operate with one or two
       PTP 800 CMUs.

       Figure 11 Top and front view of IRFU shelf (with single transceiver and waveguide)




       The PTP 800 IRFU platform supports the licensed bands and frequencies listed in Table 2.
       The IRFU chassis is designed for mounting in an indoor 19" rack. The 2.77 U height
       chassis can house one or two field replaceable transceivers, where each transceiver
       interfaces to a separate CMU via an intermediate frequency coaxial cable, or IF cable. The
       IRFU also provides either one or two waveguide interfaces for connection to the antenna
       or antennas. The waveguide interfaces have excellent voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR).
       This reduces the amplitude of reflected signals passing up the waveguide which could
       otherwise degrade the quality of the transmitted and received signals. When connected to
       a suitably low VSWR antenna, this makes the IRFU ideal for operation with a wide range of
       waveguide lengths.

Transceivers
       Each transceiver provides the necessary frequency conversion and amplification of signals
       which pass between the CMU and antenna. In the transmit direction, a transceiver
       up-converts and amplifies the fixed intermediate frequency (IF) signal received from the
       CMU resulting in a configured licensed band radio frequency signal transmitted at the
       waveguide interface. In the receive direction, a transceiver provides low noise
       amplification and down-conversion of the licensed band signal received at the waveguide
       interface. The result is a fixed IF signal which is passed to the CMU for demodulation.
       Each transceiver is powered via its own dedicated power socket. Cambium Networks do
       not provide the power supply, but they do provide the power connector. For power supply
       requirements, please see IRFU specifications on page 4-8.



        To prevent grounding issues with the CMU, only a -48 V dc power supply is supported.

       Each transceiver is cooled by its own field replaceable fan assembly. Each fan assembly
       contains two fans which are automatically controlled by the transceiver which responds to
       changes in the temperature of its power amplifier.
       As an aid to aligning antennas, the IRFU provides an interface per transceiver for
       monitoring the strength of the received signal level.



Branching unit
       The transceivers connect to the waveguide interfaces via the IRFU branching unit. The
       branching unit is an integral part of the IRFU and is situated at the back of the chassis.
       The branching unit provides the necessary coupling and filtering and also the necessary
       isolation between transceivers. Although the branching unit is not field replaceable, the
       transmit and receive filters within the branching unit are both field replaceable.



IRFU availability
       IRFUs are available at 6 GHz and 11 GHz. The 6 GHz IRFU support the L6 and U6 bands
       of both FCC and Industry Canada regulations. The FCC 7 GHz band is also supported by
       this IRFU. The 11 GHz IRFU supports the 11 GHz band for both FCC and Industry Canada
       regulations.
       Although the transceivers are designed to cover the entire frequency range of a given
       band, the branching unit is factory tuned for a specific transmit frequency and a specific
       receive frequency. The transmit frequency and receive frequency must therefore be
       specified when ordering an IRFU.

IRFU configuration options
       IRFUs are available with the following optional configurations:


       1+0
       This consists of a single transceiver with the branching unit providing a single waveguide
       interface (Figure 12). With this option, the right hand transceiver position is not
       populated.

       1+1 Tx MHSB (with equal or unequal receiver coupling)
       This option consists of two transceivers with the branching unit providing a single
       waveguide interface for connection to an antenna (Figure 13). This option provides
       monitored hot standby (MHSB) operation, which allows the link to continue to operate in
       the event of single point equipment failure. Both transceivers are capable of receiving and
       transmitting, but the transmission from only one of the transceivers is routed to the
       waveguide interface at any one time. This is achieved with an RF switch which is an
       integral component of the IRFU. The other transceiver remains on standby waiting to take
       over in case of equipment failure. This option is available with equal or unequal receive
       coupling, the latter providing a better radio link budget for the primary transceiver, which
       is the preferred transceiver. For more details of 1+1 operation, see 1+1 Hot Standby link
       protection on page 1-64.

       1+0 Tx MHSB Ready (with equal or unequal receiver coupling)
       This option consists of a single transceiver and a single waveguide interface (Figure 14),
       but the branching unit is ready for connection of a second transceiver if an upgrade to a
       full 1+1 Tx MHSB is required at a later date. Similar to the 1+1 Tx MHSB, this option is
       available with equal or unequal receive coupling.

       1+1 Tx MHSB / Rx SD
       This option consists of two transceivers with the branching unit providing two waveguide
       interfaces (Figure 15). As well as providing MHSB operation in the event of single point
       equipment failure, it also provides receive spatial diversity by providing a second
       waveguide interface which connects to a diverse antenna. The IRFU will only radiate from
       the main waveguide interface (left hand viewed from the front). Although both transceivers
       are capable of transmitting, the transmission from only one of the transceivers is routed to
       the main waveguide interface at any one time. This is achieved with an RF switch
       incorporated within the IRFU. In the receive direction, the left hand transceiver will
       receive from the left hand (or main) waveguide interface and the right hand transceiver
       will receive from the right hand (or diverse) waveguide interface.

       2+0
       This option consists of two transceivers with the branching unit providing a single
       waveguide interface (Figure 16). This option allows the operator to run two parallel 1+0
       links which share the same antenna. Both transceivers will simultaneously transmit and
       receive through the same waveguide interface. Each transceiver must operate on a
       different transmit frequency and on a different receive frequency. A license will generally
       be required for each link.

Antennas and couplers

       This section describes the PTP 800 antennas, couplers and remote mounting kit.



Antennas
       A typical antenna is shown in Figure 18.

       Figure 18 Typical PTP 800 antenna with ODU (Cambium direct mount interface)




       Antenna diameter
       In each band, the antennas are provided in a number of diameters, the larger the
       diameter, the greater the gain.


       Antenna interface
       There are two types of antennas providing different interfaces to the RFU:
       •   Direct mount interface: The ODU mounts directly to the back of the antenna (Figure
           19) and is secured using the integral spring loaded latches (Figure 20). Direct mount
           antennas are not installed with IRFUs.
       •   Waveguide interface: The antenna connects to the RFU via a waveguide (Figure 21).
           The RFU (ODU or IRFU) is mounted separately from the antenna.

       Antenna polarization
       Antennas can be provided as single polar or dual polar:
       •     Single polar : A single polar antenna provides a single interface to the RFU. The
             antennas are normally supplied with vertical polarization. For horizontal polarization,
             the antennas can be modified by the user using the instructions provided. Single polar
             antennas can be provided with a direct mount interface or a waveguide interface.
       •     Dual polar: Dual polar antennas provide two interfaces, one with vertical polarization
             and one with horizontal polarization. This allows two links connecting the same two
             sites to share antennas, the two links operating on opposite polarizations. Dual Polar
             antennas provide a waveguide interface only.




Remote mounting kits (RMKs)

           Applies to ODU deployments only.

       An RMK is used in an ODU (not IRFU) remote mount configurations to connect the ODU
       (or coupler) to the antenna via a flexible waveguide. Direct mount configurations do not
       require RMKs. The RMK has the following features:
       •     A clamp for attaching the RMK to a monopole.
       •     A cylindrical transition (Figure 22) onto which the ODU mounts.
       •     A waveguide interface transition (Figure 23) for connection to the antenna via a
             flexible waveguide.

       The choice of RMK depends upon the frequency variant. The 11 GHz RMK is always used
       with a tapered transition between the antenna and the flexible waveguide.

       Figure 23 RMK showing the waveguide interface




Coupler mounting kits

        Applies to ODU deployments only.

       The signals from two ODUs can be coupled to a single antenna. The ODUs mount directly
       to the coupler (Figure 24) which then provides an interface to the antenna which is
       identical to that of an ODU. The coupler can mount directly to the back of a direct mount
       interface antenna (Figure 25), or it can be mounted separately using the remote mounting
       kit (RMK).

       Coupler mounting kits are provided in two options:



1-30                                                                phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

       •     Symmetric coupler mounting kits: This option splits the power evenly between the
             two ODUs. A nominal 3 dB is lost in each arm of the coupler.
       •     Asymmetric coupler mounting kits : This option splits the power in a way which
             favours one ODU. A nominal 1 dB is lost in the Main arm of the coupler with a nominal
             7 dB being lost in the other arm. This is often a preferred option for 1+1 Hot Standby
             links (see Link types on page 1-6).



           Couplers increase system loss.

       The choice of coupler mounting kit depends on the frequency variant and on the coupler
       type required (symmetric or asymmetric).

Direct mount dual-polar antennas

        Applies to ODU deployments only.

       Direct mount dual-polar antennas are only used in 2+0 cross-polar direct mount
       configurations. They are supplied with an orthogonal mode transducer (Figure 26) with
       transitions (vertical and horizontal) that allow two ODUs to be coupled to the antenna.
       Cambium supply dual-polar direct mount antennas as listed in Ordering antennas on page
       2-59.
       However, if a previously purchased antenna is to be upgraded to support a 2+0 cross-polar
       direct mount configuration, Cambium can supply separate orthogonal mount kits (OMKs),
       as listed in Ordering OMKs on page 2-90. The OMK can only be fitted to an antenna that is
       in the same band, for example, a 6 GHz antenna can only accept a 6 GHz OMK.

Cabling and lightning protection

       This section describes the cabling and lightning protection components of a PTP 800
       installation.



Lightning protection (ODU platforms only)
       The PTP 800 has been tested for compliance to the EMC immunity specifications identified
       in EMC immunity compliance on page 4-81.
       The ODUs for the PTP 800 are fitted with surge limiting circuits and other features to
       minimize the risk of damage due to nearby lightning strikes. To be fully effective, these
       standard features require some additional equipment to be configured as part of the
       system installation.



        The PTP 800 Series is not designed to survive direct lightning strikes. For this reason the
        antenna and ODU should not be installed at the highest point in a localized area. See
        Grounding and lightning protection on page 2-7.



RFU to CMU connections
       The RFU is connected to the LPUs and CMU using CNT-400 coaxial cable (IF cable).



CMU to network connections
       The CMU is connected to network equipment using either a copper data port (100baseT or
       1000baseT Ethernet) or a fiber interface (1000BaseSX or 1000BaseLX).



Cable grounding (ODU platforms only)
       The ODU, LPUs and IF cable must be grounded to the supporting structure at the points
       specified in Grounding and lightning protection on page 2-7. One cable grounding kit
       (Figure 27) is required at each grounding point.

Wireless operation

       This section describes how the PTP 800 wireless link is operated, including modulation
       modes, power control and security.



Channel bandwidth
       The PTP 800 wireless link supports the following channel bandwidths:
       •   7 MHz
       •   10 MHz
       •   13.75 MHz
       •   14 MHz
       •   20 MHz
       •   27.5 MHz
       •   28 MHz
       •   29.65 MHz
       •   30 MHz
       •   40 MHz
       •   50 MHz
       •   55 MHz
       •   56 MHz
       •   80 MHz.

       The available selection of channel bandwidths varies depending on band and region.



Modulation modes
       The PTP 800 wireless link operates using single carrier modulation with the following fixed
       modulation modes:
       •   QPSK
       •   8PSK
       •   16QAM
       •   32QAM
       •   64QAM
       •   128QAM

1-38                                                                phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
PTP 800 Series User Guide                                                          Wireless operation



       •     256QAM
       The available selection of modulation modes varies depending on band, region and channel
       bandwidth.
       PTP 800 uses Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) forward error correction (FEC) coding.
       The code rate is calculated as the ratio between the un-coded block size and the coded
       block size. FEC code rate in PTP 800 varies between 0.76 and 0.94 depending on channel
       bandwidth and modulation mode.
       For more information, see Capacity, transmit power and sensitivity on page 4-22.



Adaptive coding and modulation
       PTP 800 supports both Fixed Modulation and Adaptive Coding and Modulation
       (ACM) modes. In ACM mode, the PTP 800 selects the modulation mode according to the
       quality of the received signal. The selection criterion is to provide the highest link capacity
       that can be achieved while keeping the communication error free.
       When compared with Fixed Modulation operation, ACM can increase either link
       availability, or average wireless link capacity, or both.



           ODU-B offers superior ACM characteristics to ODU-A.



Automatic transmitter power control
       PTP 800 provides closed-loop automatic transmitter power control (ATPC). ATPC avoids
       overload of the receivers in links with low link loss by automatically adjusting transmitter
       power. The ATPC threshold is –40 dBm received power. ATPC has no effect in links where
       the received power is lower than the threshold.
       Automatic adjustment of the transmitter can be enabled or disabled using the Automatic
       Transmitter Power Control attribute on the Configuration page of the web-based interface.
       This attribute must have the same setting at both ends of the link.
       In some regions ATPC is a regulatory requirement and in these cases ATPC cannot be
       disabled.
       The power control loop compensates for slow variations in received power and does not
       respond to fast fading that occurs in multipath channels.
       In addition to its main function, ATPC includes a mechanism protecting against a lock up
       scenario. The mechanism is active regardless of the received power. This lock up occurs
       when the configured maximum transmit power causes the received power at both ends of
       the link to be too high to allow correct signal demodulation. In this situation, no
       communication can be established in either direction, causing the radios to wait forever
       for the remote end to appear.

phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                      1-39
Wireless operation                                                    Chapter 1: Product description



       The protection mechanism works as follows. Upon the link dropping for more than 10
       seconds, ATPC drops the maximum transmit power of the end which has the lowest
       transmit frequency by 15 dB. This ensures the link will come up even if the maximum
       transmit power is set incorrectly. The delay prevents this mechanism from being triggered
       when the link drops briefly due to severe fading.



Maximum receive power
       The maximum receive power is the maximum power at which a PTP 800 link should be
       operated to maintain error free communication. This maximum receive power for normal
       operation is -35 dBm. Automatic transmitter power control, if enabled, will reduce the
       installation receive level to a -40 dBm operating level if there is sufficient dynamic range
       available in the maximum transmit power. For example, a link installed at -35 dBm with a
       maximum transmit power set to at least 5 dB above the minimum power level will
       successfully operate at -40 dBm. Links operating without ATPC, or with less than 5 dB
       available dynamic range should ensure that the normal operating level does not exceed
       -35 dBm.
       On very short links it may be necessary to use a fixed waveguide attenuator, which will
       require the use of a remote mount antenna, to keep the maximum receive power at an
       acceptable level.



Maximum transmit power
       Maximum transmit power is the maximum power that the PTP 800 is permitted to
       generate at the waveguide interface assuming that ATPC is disabled, or the link loss is
       high enough such that ATPC is not activated. The equipment limit for maximum transmit
       power is defined by modulation mode, band, channel bandwidth and standards body or
       region. The spectrum license limit is determined by the maximum EIRP permitted by the
       individual license, the antenna gain and feeder loss. The maximum transmit power that
       can be configured for PTP 800 is limited by the more restrictive of the equipment limit and
       the spectrum license limit.
       Maximum transmit power defaults to the maximum permitted as described above, but can
       be reduced if necessary using Step 3 of the Installation Wizard, or the Configuration page
       of the web-based interface.



Security
       PTP 800 provides optional 128-bit and 256-bit encryption using the Advanced Encryption
       Standard (AES). The implementation in PTP 800 has been validated against Federal
       Information Processing Standard Publication 197 (FIPS-197) in the Cryptographic
       Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP) of the US National Institute of Standards and
       Technology (NIST).

       AES encryption protects all traffic over the wireless link, including in-band and out-of-band
       network management traffic. Each CMU behaves as a cryptographic device in which the
       Ethernet interfaces transmit and receive plain text data, and the IF interface transmits and
       receives cipher text data. The IF cable and RFUs are outside the cryptographic boundary.

Ethernet bridging

       This section describes how the PTP 800 controls Ethernet data, in both the customer data
       network and the system management network.



Customer network

       Transparent Ethernet service
       The PTP 800 Series provides an Ethernet service between the data port at a local CMU
       and the data port at an associated remote CMU. The Ethernet service is based on
       conventional layer two transparent bridging, and is equivalent to the Ethernet Private Line
       (EPL) service defined by the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF).

       The service is transparent to untagged frames, standard VLAN frames, priority-tagged
       frames, provider bridged frames, and provider backbone bridged frames. In each case, the
       service preserves MAC addresses, VLAN ID, Ethernet priority and Ethernet payload in the
       forwarded frame. The maximum frame size for bridged frames in the customer network is
       9600 octets.


       Layer two control protocols
       The PTP 800 Series is transparent to layer two control protocols (L2CP) including:
       •   Spanning tree protocol (STP), rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP)
       •   Multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP)
       •   Link aggregation control protocol (LACP)
       •   Link OAM, IEEE 802.3ah
       •   Port authentication, IEEE 802.1X
       •   Ethernet local management interface (E-LMI), ITU-T Q.933.
       •   Link layer discovery protocol (LLDP)
       •   Multiple registration protocol (MRP)
       •   Generic attribute registration protocol (GARP)

       PTP 800 handles IEEE 802.3 Pause frames as a special case; each CMU can be configured
       to either forward (tunnel) or discard Pause frames received at the Data port. PTP 800
       discards all Pause frames received at the Management port.
       The PTP 800 Series does not generate or respond to any L2CP traffic.

PTP 800 Series User Guide                                                         Ethernet bridging



       Quality of service for bridged Ethernet traffic
       The PTP 800 Series supports eight traffic queues for Ethernet frames waiting for
       transmission over the wireless link. Ethernet frames are classified by inspection of the
       Ethernet destination address, the Ethernet priority code point in the outermost VLAN tag,
       the Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) in an IPv4 or IPv6 header, or the Traffic
       Class in an MPLS header.
       PTP 800 provides a configurable mapping between Ethernet, IP or MPLS priority and
       transmission queue, together with a simple way to restore a default mapping based on the
       recommended default in IEEE 802.1Q-2005. Untagged frames, or frames with an unknown
       network layer protocol, can be separately classified.
       Scheduling for transmission over the wireless link is by strict priority. In other words, a
       frame at the head of a given queue is transmitted only when all higher priority queues are
       empty.


       Fragmentation
       The PTP 800 Series minimizes latency and jitter for high-priority Ethernet traffic by
       fragmenting Ethernet frames before transmission over the wireless link. The fragment size
       is selected automatically according to channel bandwidth and modulation mode of the
       wireless link. Fragments are reassembled on reception, and incomplete Ethernet frames
       are discarded. Traffic is not fragmented in the highest priority traffic class.



Management network

       IP interface
       Each PTP 800 CMU contains an embedded management agent with a single IP interface.
       Network management communication is exclusively based on IP and associated higher
       layer transport and application protocols. The default IP address of the management agent
       is 169.254.1.1. The PTP 800 does not require use of supplementary serial interfaces.
       In a 1+1 protection scheme, each CMU contains a separate management agent.


       MAC address
       The management agent end-station MAC address is recorded on the underside of the
       enclosure. The MAC address is not configurable by the user.




phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                   1-43
Ethernet bridging                                                   Chapter 1: Product description



       VLAN membership
       The management agent can be configured to transmit and receive either untagged,
       priority-tagged, C-tagged (IEEE 802.1Q) or S-tagged (IEEE 801.ad) frames. S-tagged
       frames must be single tagged, in other words, an S-tag with no encapsulated C-tag. The
       VLAN ID can be 0 (priority tagged) or in the range 1 to 4094.


       Out-of-band management
       PTP 800 supports an end-to-end out-of-band management mode in which the management
       agent can be reached from the management port at the local CMU, and (assuming that the
       wireless link is established) the management port at the remote CMU. This management
       mode allows communication from the CMU management port to Ethernet end stations
       reached through the remote CMU, supporting construction of an extended management
       network that is isolated from the customer network.

       End-to-end out-of-band management is possible only when the network management mode
       is configured to “out-of-band” at every CMU.


       Out-of-band quality of service
       Out-of-band management traffic is forwarded over the wireless link using a dedicated
       channel. The management channel represents a single traffic class, and the same quality
       of service is afforded to all management frames. Traffic in the management channel is
       fragmented for transmission over the wireless link to minimize the jitter imposed on high
       priority traffic in the customer network.
       The management channel has higher priority than traffic in the customer network, subject
       to a configurable committed information rate (CIR) with a range between 200 Kbit/s and 2
       Mbps. Committed capacity that remains unused by management traffic is available for
       customer traffic.


       Out-of-band local management
       The out-of-band local management mode is similar to the standard out-of-band mode,
       except that management frames are not forwarded over the wireless link. Connection to
       the management agent is solely through the management port of the local CMU. The
       management channel CIR control is disabled in out-of-band local mode.
       Out-of-band local management is the default management mode.
       If the management port is not accessible remotely, this mode should be changed to permit
       remote management.

PTP 800 Series User Guide                                                         Ethernet bridging




       In-band management
       In the in-band management mode, the management agent can be reached from the data
       port at the local CMU, and (assuming that the wireless link is established) the data port at
       the remote CMU. In this mode, the management port is disabled.
       Management frames in the customer network are processed by the management agent if
       (a) destination MAC address in the frame matches the CMU MAC address, and (b) the
       VLAN ID in the frame matches the VLAN configuration of the management agent.
       If Local Packet Filtering is enabled, unicast frames forwarded to the management agent
       are filtered, that is, not forwarded in the customer network.


       In-band quality of service
       The CMU may be configured to tag the Ethernet frames generated by its management
       agent. When configured for In Band Management, these frames are assigned to a queue
       based on the priority code point in the same way as customer traffic.


       Source address learning
       If Local Packet Filtering is enabled, the management agent learns the location of end
       stations from the source addresses in received management frames. The agent filters
       transmitted management frames to ensure that the frame is transmitted at the Ethernet
       (data or management) port, or over the wireless link as appropriate. If the end station
       address is unknown, then management traffic is transmitted at the Ethernet port and over
       the wireless link.
       In out-of-band local management mode, management frames are not transmitted over the
       wireless link, and so address learning is not active.


       Wireless link down alert
       The PTP 800 Series can be configured to alert a ‘loss of link’ to the connected network
       equipment. It does this by means of a brief disconnection of the copper data port or fiber
       data port. When the PTP 800 Series is configured for out-of-band operation, it also briefly
       disconnects the management port. Ethernet disconnection typically occurs within 50 ms of
       detection of link failure. The alert is triggered by any condition which prevents the link
       from forwarding traffic in one or both link directions. Examples include a deep wireless
       fade, equipment failure such as an RFU failure, and Ethernet cable disconnection. In 1+1
       Hot Standby links, the alert will only be triggered if a protection switch does not resolve
       the failure condition, for example if both sets of equipment at an end exhibit a fault or if
       there is a deep wireless fade.

       The wireless link down alert can be deployed in networks which provide alternative traffic
       routes in the event of failure. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Ethernet Automatic
       Protection Switching (EAPS) are two protocols which are commonly deployed in such
       complex networks and both react to the wireless link down alert.



Protocol model
       Ethernet bridging behavior at each end of the wireless link is equivalent to a three-port,
       managed, transparent MAC bridge where the three ports are:
       •   Ethernet Management Port
       •   Ethernet Data Port
       •   Wireless Port
       Frames are transmitted at the Wireless port over a proprietary point-to-point circuit-mode
       link layer between ends of the PTP 800 link. For a single CMU configuration or the active
       CMU in a 1+1 Hot Standby configuration, Ethernet frames received at the data or
       management ports, or generated internally within the management agent, are
       encapsulated within a lightweight MAC layer for transmission over the wireless link.
       For the inactive CMU at a protected end no traffic is transmitted over the wireless link.
       Any management traffic generated is transmitted towards the management port (for out-
       of-band management) or the traffic port (for in-band management).


       Forwarding behavior
       In out-of-band local mode (Figure 29) and out-of-band mode (Figure 30), the management
       network (shown in red) is isolated from the customer data network (shown in blue). In out-
       of-band mode, the management network is isolated from the customer data at the wireless
       port by use of a separate service access point and associated dedicated logical channel.
       Ethernet frames will not leak between management and data networks, even in the
       presence of configuration errors.
       In in-band mode (Figure 31), the management and customer data networks are not
       isolated, and the Management port is not used.

       Forwarding behavior for 1+1 Hot Standby links
       Forwarding behavior for the active CMU is as for a non-protected link.
       Forwarding behavior for the inactive CMU in a 1+1 Hot Standby link requires
       management data to be routed to the Ethernet management port (Figure 32) or data port
       (Figure 33), depending on the management mode. Only status information from the remote
       CMU is forwarded at the wireless interface.

System management

       This section introduces the PTP 800 management system, including the web interface,
       installation, configuration, alerts and upgrades.



Management agent
       PTP 800 equipment is managed through an embedded management agent. Management
       workstations, network management systems or PCs can be connected to this agent using
       an in-band mode, or a choice of two out-of-band modes. These modes are described in
       detail in Management network on page 1-43.

       The management agent supports the following interfaces:
       •   Hyper text transfer protocol (HTTP)
       •   HTTP over transport layer security (HTTPS/TLS)
       •   RADIUS authentication
       •   Simple network management protocol (SNMP)
       •   Simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP)
       •   Simple network time protocol (SNTP)
       •   System logging (syslog)



Web server
       The PTP 800 management agent contains a web server. The web server supports the HTTP
       and HTTPS/TLS interfaces.
       Operation of HTTPS/TLS is enabled by purchase of an optional AES upgrade as described
       in Task 3: Installing license keys on page 6-18.

       Web-based management offers a convenient way to manage the PTP 800 equipment from a
       locally connected computer or from a network management workstation connected
       through a management network, without requiring any special management software. The
       web-based interfaces are the only interfaces supported for system installation, and for the
       majority of configuration management tasks.


       Transport layer security
       The HTTPS/TLS interface provides the same set of web-pages as the HTTP interface, but
       allows HTTP traffic to be encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). PTP 800 uses
       AES encryption for HTTPS/TLS.


phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                  1-51
System management                                                      Chapter 1: Product description



       HTTPS/TLS requires installation of a private key and a public key certificate where the
       common name of the subject in the public key certificate is the IP address or host name of
       the PTP 800 unit.
       HTTPS/TLS operation is configured through the web-based interfaces using the Security
       Wizard.
       Details of the security material needed for HTTPS/TLS are provided in Security planning
       on page 2-22.



           The PTP 800 has no default public key certificate, and Cambium is not able to generate
           private keys or public key certificates for specific network applications.


       User account management
       PTP 800 allows a network operator to configure a policy for login attempts, the period of
       validity of passwords and the action taken on expiry of passwords. See Configuring local
       user accounts on page 6-39 for further details.


       Identity-based user accounts
       The PTP 800 web-based interface provides two methods of authenticating users:
       •     Role-based user authentication allows the user, on entry of a valid password, to access
             all configuration capabilities and controls. This is the default method.
       •     Identity-based user authentication supports up to 10 users with individual usernames
             and passwords.

       When identity-based user accounts are enabled, a security officer can define from one to
       ten user accounts, each of which may have one of the three possible roles:
       •     Security officer.
       •     System administrator.
       •     Read only.
       Identity-based user accounts are enabled in the Local User Accounts page of the web-
       based interface.


       Password complexity
       PTP 800 allows a network operator to enforce a configurable policy for password
       complexity. Password complexity configuration additionally allows a pre-determined best
       practice configuration to be set. See Configuring local user accounts on page 6-39 for
       further details.

PTP 800 Series User Guide                                                     System management




Installation wizard
       The web-based interface includes an Installation wizard. This feature simplifies the process
       of entering initial configuration details, setting the system into alignment mode, achieving
       the lowest possible link loss through correct antenna alignment, and reporting on the
       performance of the installed link. The process handles the important configuration settings
       that must be set to comply with individual license conditions. These important settings are
       not normally modified in an operating link, and cannot be changed in PTP 800 except
       through use of the Installation wizard.



Configuration pages
       The web-based interface includes a number of configuration pages. These pages allow for
       modification of the system configuration of an installed link. In general, configuration
       changes can be completed without a reboot. Configuration pages include controls relating
       to the management agent IP interface, the Ethernet interfaces, quality of service at the
       wireless interface, security passwords and AES keys.



RADIUS authentication
       PTP 800 supports remote authentication for users of the web interface using the
       Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) or Microsoft CHAP version 2
       (MS-CHAPv2) over the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS). PTP 800
       supports connections to primary and secondary RADIUS servers. The RADIUS interface is
       configured through the RADIUS Authentication page of the web-based interfaces.
       PTP 800 RADIUS supports the standard Service Type attribute to indicate authentication
       roles of System Administrator and Read Only together with a vendor specific attribute to
       indicate authentication roles of Security Officer, System Administrator, and Read Only.
       Remote authentication can be used in addition to local authentication, or can be used as a
       replacement for local authentication. If remote and local authentications are used
       together, PTP 800 checks log in attempts against locally stored user credentials before
       submitting a challenge and response for remote authentication. Remote authentication is
       not attempted if the username and password match locally stored credentials.

       RADIUS is only available when PTP 800 is configured for Identity-based User Accounts.
       For more information, refer to Planning for RADIUS operation on page 2-28.

Email alerts
       The management agent can be configured to generate alerts by electronic mail when any
       of the following events occur:
       •   Wireless link up
       •   Wireless link down
       •   Data port up
       •   Data port down
       •   Management port up
       •   Management port down
       •   Link name mismatch
       •   Alignment mode
       •   Unit out of calibration
       •   Encryption enabled mismatch
       •   Data port disabled warning
       •   Data port fiber status

       •   Wireless link status
       •   Protection interface status
       Email alerts are described in Managing alarms and events on page 7-15.



SNMP
       The management agent supports fault and performance management by means of an
       SNMP interface. The management agent is compatible with SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c,
       using the following MIBs:
       •   PTP 800 enterprise MIB
       •   The system group and the interfaces group from MIB-II, RFC-1213
       •   The interfaces group and the ifXTable from RFC-2233
       •   The dot1dBase group and the dot1dBasePortTable group from the Bridge MIB, RFC-
           1493.


1-54                                                              phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
PTP 800 Series User Guide                                                   System management



       The PTP 800 enterprise MIB is available for download in the application software package
       from the support web page (see Contacting Cambium Networks on page 2).
       Further details of the standard SNMP MIB objects supported by PTP 800 are provided in
       Standard SNMP MIBs on page 4-76.

       SNMP must be enabled for use by means of the SNMP State attribute in the web-based
       interface. Activation of SNMP in PTP 800 requires a reboot of the CMU.
       The web-based interface must be used to configure the destination IP address for SNMP
       notifications, and to enable or disable generation of each supported SNMP notification.
       Supported notifications are as follows:
       •   Cold start
       •   Link up
       •   Link down
       •   Link name mismatch
       •   Alignment mode
       •   Unit out of calibration
       •   Encryption enabled mismatch
       •   Data port disabled warning
       •   Data port fiber status
       •   Data port configuration mismatch
       •   SNTP sync
       •   Management port disabled warning
       •   RFU status
       •   Management port configuration mismatch
       •   Wireless link status
       •   Protection interface status
       •   Wireless receive status
       •   Licensed transmit capacity
       •   Wireless receive mismatch
       •   Data port Ethernet speed mismatch
       •   Management port Ethernet speed mismatch
       SNMP notifications are described in Managing alarms and events on page 7-15.

Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP)
       The clock supplies accurate date and time information to the system. It can be set to run
       with or without a connection to one or two network time servers (SNTP). It can be
       configured to display local time by setting the time zone and daylight saving in the Time
       Configuration web page.
       If an SNTP server connection is available, the clock can be set to synchronize with the
       server time at regular intervals. For secure applications, the PTP 800 can be configured to
       authenticate received NTP messages using the DES or MD5 protocol.



SNMPv3 security

       SNMP Engine ID
       PTP 800 supports three different formats for SNMP Engine ID:
       •   MAC address
       •   IP address
       •   Configurable text string
       SNMPv3 security configuration is re-initialized when the SNMP Engine ID is changed.


       User-based security model
       PTP 800 supports the SNMPv3 user-based security model (USM) for up to 10 users, with
       MD5, SHA-1, DES and (subject to the license key) AES protocols in the following
       combinations:
       •   No authentication, no privacy,
       •   MD5, no privacy,
       •   SHA-1, no privacy,
       •   MD5, DES,
       •   SHA-1, DES,
       •   MD5, AES,
       •   SHA-1, AES.
       Use of AES privacy requires the AES upgrade described in AES license on page 1-60. The
       system will allow the creation of users configured with AES privacy protocol, regardless of
       license key. However, a user configured to use AES privacy protocol will not be able to
       transmit and receive encrypted messages unless the license key enables the AES
       capability.

       View-based access control model
       PTP 800 supports the SNMPv3 view-based access control model (VACM) with a single
       context. The context name is the empty string. The context table is read-only, and cannot
       be modified by users.


       Access to critical security parameters
       The SNMPv3 management interface does not provide access to critical security
       parameters (CSPs). It is not possible to read or modify AES keys used to encrypt data
       transmitted at the wireless interface.


       MIB-based management of SNMPv3 security
       PTP 800 supports a standards-based approach to configuring SNMPv3 users and views
       through the SNMP MIB. This approach provides maximum flexibility in terms of defining
       views and security levels appropriate for different types of user.
       The system provides a default SNMPv3 configuration. This initial configuration is not
       secure, but it provides the means by which a secure configuration can be created using
       SNMPv3.

       The secure configuration should be configured in a controlled environment to prevent
       disclosure of the initial security keys necessarily sent as plaintext, or sent as encrypted
       data using a predictable key. The initial security information should not be configured over
       an insecure network.


       The default configuration is restored when any of the following occurs:
       •   All CMU configuration data is erased.
       •   All SNMP users are deleted using the SNMP management interface.
       •   The SNMP Engine ID Format has been changed.
       •   The SNMP Engine ID Format is IP Address AND the IP Address has been changed.
       •   The SNMP Engine ID Format is Text String AND the text string has been changed.
       •   The SNMP Engine ID Format is MAC Address AND configuration has been restored
           using a file saved from a different unit.
       •   SNMPv3 Security Management is changed from web-based to MIB-based.

       The default user configuration is specified in SNMPv3 default configuration (MIB-based)
       on page 2-27.
       The system creates the initial user and template users with localized authentication and
       privacy keys derived from the passphrase string 123456789. Authentication keys for the
       templates users are fixed and cannot be changed. Any or all of the template users can be
       deleted.


phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                    1-57
System management                                                      Chapter 1: Product description



       The default user initial is created with a view of the entire MIB, requiring authentication
       for SET operations. There is no access for template users.



           VACM grants access for requests sent with more than the configured security level.

       The default user initial will have read/write access to the whole of the MIB. This is
       described in further detail in View-based access control model on page 1-57. The template
       users have no access to the MIB in the default configuration. User initial will normally be
       used to create one or more additional users with secret authentication and privacy keys,
       and with appropriate access to the whole of the MIB or to particular views of the MIB
       according to the operator’s security policy. New users must be created by cloning template
       users. The user initial may then be deleted to prevent access using the well-known user
       name and keys. Alternatively, the keys associated with initial may be set to some new
       secret value.


       Web-based management of SNMPv3 security
       PTP 800 supports an alternative, web-based approach for configuring SNMPv3 security. In
       this case, the web-based interface allows users to specify SNMPv3 users, security levels,
       privacy and authentication protocols, and passphrases. Web-based management will be
       effective for many network applications, but the capabilities supported are somewhat less
       flexible than those supported using the MIB-based security management.
       Selection of web-based management for SNMPv3 security disables the MIB-based security
       management.
       Web-based management of SNMPv3 security allows for two security roles:
       •     Read Only
       •     System Administrator
       Read Only and System Administrator users are associated with fixed views allowing access
       to the whole of the MIB, excluding the objects associated with SNMPv3 security. System
       Administrators have read/write access as defined in the standard and proprietary MIBs.
       Web-based management of SNMPv3 security allows an operator to define the security
       levels and protocols for each of the security roles; all users with the same role share a
       common selection of security level and protocols.
       Web-based security configuration is re-initialized when any of the following occurs:
       •     All CMU configuration data is erased.
       •     The SNMP Engine ID Format has been changed.
       •     The SNMP Engine ID Format is IP Address and the IP Address has been changed.
       •     The SNMP Engine ID Format is Text String and the text string has been changed.
       •     The SNMP Engine ID Format is MAC Address and configuration has been restored
             using a file saved from a different unit.

       •   SNMPv3 Security Management is changed from MIB-based to web-based.
       Additionally, all SNMP user accounts are disabled when the authentication protocol, the
       privacy protocol, or the security level is changed.


       Downgrade of the license key
       A possible lockout condition exists if a user downgrades the license key so as to disable the
       AES capability when SNMPv3 users are configured with AES privacy and VACM is
       configured to require privacy. In this case, recovery is by either (a) restoring the correct
       license key, or (b) using recovery mode to erase all configuration and entering new
       configuration.
       Option (b) will cause default users and access configuration to be re-created.



System logging (syslog)
       PTP 800 supports the standard syslog protocol to log important configuration changes,
       status changes and events. The protocol complies with RFC 3164.

       PTP 800 creates syslog messages for configuration changes to any attribute that is
       accessible via the web-based interface, or via the enterprise MIB at the SNMP interface.
       PTP 800 additionally creates syslog messages for changes in any status variable displayed
       in the web-based interface.
       PTP 800 creates syslog messages on a number of events (for example successful and
       unsuccessful attempts to log in to the web-based interface).

       PTP 800 can be configured to send syslog messages to one or two standard syslog servers.
       Additionally, PTP 800 logs event notification messages locally. Locally-stored event
       messages survive reboot of the unit, and are overwritten only when the storage capacity is
       exhausted (approximately 2000 messages). The locally stored events can be reviewed
       using the web-based user interface.
       Only users with ‘Security Officer’ role are permitted to configure the syslog client. Users
       with Security Officer, System Administrator or Read Only roles are permitted to review the
       locally logged event messages.

AES license
       PTP 800 provides optional encryption using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
       Encryption is not available in the standard system.
       AES upgrades are supplied as an access key purchased from your Cambium Point-to-Point
       distributor or solutions provider. The access key authorizes AES operation for one CMU.
       Two access keys are needed to operate AES on a link. The upgrade is applied by entering
       an access key together with the MAC address of the target CMU into the PTP License Key
       Generator web page, which may be accessed from the support web page (see Contacting
       Cambium Networks on page 2).
       The License Key Generator creates a new license key that is delivered by email. The
       license key must be installed on the CMU. When the license key is installed, the CMU must
       be rebooted before AES can be enabled. Once applied, the AES upgrade is bound to a
       single CMU and is not transferrable.
       AES encryption may be used in the following ways:
       •   At the wireless port to encrypt data transmitted over the wireless link.
       •   At the SNMP management interface in the SNMPv3 mode.
       •   At the HTTPS/TLS management interface.
       Two levels of encryption are available to purchase:
       •   128-bit: This allows an operator to encrypt all traffic sent over the wireless link using
           128-bit encryption.
       •   256-bit: This allows an operator to encrypt traffic using either 128-bit or 256-bit
           encryption.
       Encryption must be configured with the same size key in each direction.
       AES encryption at the wireless port is based on pre-shared keys. An identical key must be
       entered at each end of the link.
       AES encryption for SNMPv3 is always based on a 128-bit key, regardless of level enabled
       in the license key.

Login information
       PTP 800 optionally provides details of the most recent successful login, and the most
       recent unsuccessful login attempt, for each user of the web-based interface.



Flexible capacity upgrades
       The maximum data throughput capacity of the PTP 800 wireless link is the lower of the
       wireless link capacity and the data capacity limit set by the PTP 800 license key.
       All PTP 800 CMUs are shipped with a factory-set 10 Mbps capacity limit, meaning that
       capacity is restricted to a maximum of 10 Mbps at the data port. Users can purchase
       capacity upgrades in nine steps between 20 Mbps and unlimited capacity. Upgrades are
       applied through the CMU license key, without any change to the hardware. Capacity may
       be different for different directions.



        Full capacity trial period: New PTP 800 units can be configured to operate with full
        transmit capacity (unlimited) during a trial period of duration 60 days, reverting to the
        licensed capacity when the trial period expires. This trial period is also available on
        existing units that are upgraded to System Relelease 800-04-00 (or later) from an earlier
        release.

       Capacity upgrades are supplied as an access key. The access key authorizes a specific
       capacity limit for one CMU. Two access keys are needed to operate a link at enhanced
       capacity. The upgrade is applied by entering an access key together with the MAC address
       of the target CMU into the PTP License Key Generator web page, which may be accessed
       from the support web page (see Contacting Cambium Networks on page 2).
       This web page generates a new license key that must be installed on the CMU. Capacity
       upgrades become active as soon as the license key is validated. There is no need to reboot
       the CMU, and the upgrade process does not involve a service interruption. Once applied,
       the capacity upgrade is bound to a single CMU and is not transferrable.
       For ordering details including Cambium part numbers, refer to Ordering capacity
       upgrades on page 2-97.

Software upgrade
       The management agent supports application software upgrade using the web-based
       interface.

       PTP 800 software images are digitally signed, and the CMU will accept only images that
       contain a valid Cambium PTP digital signature. The CMU always requires a reboot to
       complete a software upgrade.
       The CMU application software image contains an embedded software image for the RFU.
       If a CMU software upgrade introduces a new RFU software version, then the RFU software
       is upgraded automatically following reboot of the CMU.



           Obtain the application software and this user guide from the support website BEFORE
           warranty expires.
           CMU software version must be the same at both ends of the link. Limited operation may
           sometimes be possible with dissimilar software version, but such operation is not
           supported by Cambium.

       The management process for software upgrade is described in detail in Task 4: Upgrading
       software version on page 6-22.
       Software can be downgraded using Recovery mode as described in Downgrading PTP 800
       software on page 7-77.



Recovery mode
       The PTP 800 recovery mode provides a means to recover from serious configuration errors
       including lost or forgotten passwords and unknown IP addresses.
       Recovery mode also allows new main application software to be loaded even when the
       integrity of the existing main application software image has been compromised. The most
       likely cause of an integrity problem with the installed main application software is where
       the power supply has been interrupted during an earlier software upgrade.
       The CMU operates in recovery mode in the following circumstances:
       •     When a checksum error occurs for the main application software image.
       •     When the CMU front panel recovery button is pressed at the same time as the CMU is
             rebooted or power cycled.
       •     When the Short Power Cycle for Recovery is enabled, and CMU is power cycled, and
             the “off” period is between one and five seconds.

       Options in recovery mode are as follows:
       •     Load new main application software.
       •     Reset all configuration data to factory default. This option resets IP and Ethernet
             configuration, and erases (zeroizes) critical security parameters.
       •     Reset IP and Ethernet configuration to factory default.
       •     Erase (zeroize) critical security parameters.
       •     Reboot with existing software and configuration.



           If recovery mode has been entered either because of a checksum error or Short Power
           Cycle, by default the CMU will reboot with existing software and configuration following
           a 30 second wait.

       The recovery software image is installed during manufacture of the CMU and cannot be
       upgraded by operators.
       For detailed instructions on using the recovery mode, see Using recovery mode on page 7-
       71.

1+1 Hot Standby link protection                                       Chapter 1: Product description




1+1 Hot Standby link protection

       This section is an overview of the concept, operation and interfaces of 1+1 Hot Standby
       links.



1+1 Hot Standby overview
       The 1+1 Hot Standby feature provides an option for protecting against a single point
       equipment failure. It also enables maintenance to be carried out with insignificant impact
       on customer traffic. Such maintenance actions include software upgrade and unit
       replacement.
       In order to protect against failure, extra equipment is required to be installed at each end
       of the link compared to a standard 1+0 link. This extra equipment will remain on standby
       until it is required to take over in case of equipment failure.
       Each end of a 1+1 Hot Standby consists of two CMUs, and either two ODUs for outdoor
       deployments or one 1+1 capable IRFU for indoor deployments. The 1+1 capable IRFU
       contains two transceivers for the purposes of protection. In addition, each end can be
       deployed with either one or two antennas depending on the customer requirements. The
       antenna options are described in 1+1 Hot Standby link antenna options on page 1-65. At
       the network side, at least one Ethernet switch must be installed at each end of the link.
       Detailed network options are described in Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links on page 2-35.
       The two CMUs which are installed at the same end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link exchange
       information over an interface known as the Protection Interface. This shares the same
       physical socket as the Management Port. For configurations which manage the CMU over
       the Management Port, an accessory known as the Out of Band Protection Splitter is
       required. This splits out the management traffic from the protection interface.

       The 1 + 1 Hot Standby feature is only supported in CMUs with Boot Monitor software
       Boot-03-00 or later.


       Active and inactive units
       At any one time at a given end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link, only one CMU will provide the
       function of forwarding Ethernet frames between the wireless interface and the Ethernet
       interface. Also, only the ODU / IRFU transceiver connected to this CMU will radiate at the
       antenna. These units are called the active units.




1-64                                                                  phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
PTP 800 Series User Guide                                            1+1 Hot Standby link protection



       The other CMU and ODU / IRFU transceiver are called the inactive units and these will
       remain on standby waiting to take over in case of a failure of the active units. If a failure
       does occur, an automatic protection switch will take place and the previously inactive units
       will take over as the active units. A protection switch may take place at one end of the link
       independently of the other end of the link. A protection switch may also be executed by
       management action.


       Primary and secondary units
       At each end of the link, one CMU must be configured as a Primary unit, the other as a
       Secondary unit. The decision of whether the Primary or Secondary CMU becomes active is
       automatically controlled by the CMU application software. In normal fault free conditions,
       the CMU application software will select the Primary CMU and associated ODU / IRFU
       transceiver to be the active unit.



1+1 Hot Standby link antenna options

       Single antenna per end
       The ODUs installed at the same end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link can share an antenna. This
       is done with an ODU Coupler Mounting Kit (Figure 24). The Coupler Mounting Kit can be
       supplied with equal or unequal coupling. The equal coupler provides the same path loss to
       the two ODUs where as the unequal coupler provides a lower path loss to one of the ODUs.
       As the unit configured as Primary is expected to be the active unit for most of the life of a
       1+1 Hot Standby link, the highest link availability is achieved by connecting the Primary
       ODU to the arm of the unequal coupler with the lowest path loss.
       IRFUs with the 1+1 Tx MHSB option are designed to connect to a single antenna via
       elliptical waveguide. Although this IRFU option is supplied with two transceivers, only the
       active transceiver will radiate at the antenna port. This is achieved by an RF switch which
       is an integral part of the 1+1 IRFUs. The position of the switch is controlled by the CMU
       application software. The RF switch is not used for the receive direction and both
       transceivers will simultaneously receive from this same antenna. This is achieved through
       the use of a coupler which is internal to the IRFU. The 1+1 Tx MHSB option can be
       supplied with equal or unequal receiver coupling. For more information on the IRFU
       options, please refer to Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links on page 2-35.

1+1 Hot Standby link protection                                       Chapter 1: Product description



       Two antennas per end
       The ODUs installed at the same end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link can be connected to
       separate antennas. Although antennas with different gains or mounting options may be
       deployed, they must have the same polarization. If the two antennas at a given end have
       different gains, the ODU configured as Primary should be connected to the antenna with
       the highest gain. This option is generally used to provide Spatial Diversity however it also
       provides protection in the case of antenna or waveguide failure.
       IRFUs with the 1+1 Tx MHSB / RX SD option are designed to connect to two antennas via
       elliptical waveguide, a main antenna and a diverse antenna. However the IRFU will only
       ever radiate from the main antenna, the transceivers being routed to this antenna by an
       RF switch in an identical way to the 1+1 Tx MHSB option. In the receive direction, spatial
       diversity is achieved by the main antenna connecting to one transceiver and the diverse
       antenna connecting to the other transceiver. Although antennas with different gains may
       be deployed, they must have the same polarization. For more information about spatial
       diversity, refer to Receive Diversity on page 1-67.



Bridging in 1+1 links
       Only the active CMU forwards customer data from the wireless interface to the Ethernet
       switch. Also, when Out of Band Management is enabled, only the active CMU forwards
       management data received from the wireless interface to the Ethernet Switch.
       In the reverse direction only the active CMU forwards customer and management frames
       to the wireless interface. This includes management frames which are sourced by the
       CMU. When a protection switch occurs, the Ethernet Switch learns to send traffic to the
       newly active CMU. This is achieved by the newly Inactive CMU momentarily disabling its
       Ethernet ports which causes the Ethernet Switch to flush its forwarding data base and
       learn the new path.



        The selected Ethernet Switch must support the feature of flushing the forwarding data
        base on port down.

       The Inactive CMU is only manageable from its local Ethernet Port. This is the Data Port
       when configured for In Band operation and the Management Port when configured for Out
       of Band operation. Remote management of the Inactive CMU is still possible across the
       wireless link, the active CMU forwarding management traffic received on the wireless
       interface to Ethernet Switch which in turn forwards on to the Inactive CMU.

Receive Diversity
       Receive Diversity improves link availability by providing each end of a wireless link with
       multiple observations of the signal which has been transmitted from the remote end of the
       link. It is particularly effective in combating multipath fading caused by atmospheric
       effects such as scintillation and ducting. Both these effects can occur to a significant
       degree in microwave links. It also combats fading caused by reflections from water.
       Receive Diversity can be enabled (at the CMU) in any of the supported 1+1 Hot Standby
       configurations. When Receive Diversity is enabled, the Active CMU examines the quality of
       the data which has been received from the wireless interface of both neighbour CMUs and
       selects the best data on a byte by byte basis.



        If separate antennas are installed at each end, then Receive Spatial Diversity is achieved.


       Receive Diversity Ethernet frames
       An important aspect of Receive Diversity is how the data received at the wireless interface
       of the Inactive CMU arrives at the Active CMU. This is achieved by the Inactive CMU
       encapsulating the received wireless data into Ethernet frames and sending the frames out
       on the Data port at a constant rate. This requires that the Data ports and also the ports to
       which they connect at the Ethernet switch are configured into a VLAN dedicated to
       Receive Diversity Ethernet frames (Figure 36).

       Figure 36 Receive Diversity Ethernet frames




       Effects of Receive Diversity on 1+1 operation
       In almost all aspects, the 1+1 Hot Standby feature operates in the same way regardless of
       whether or not Receive Diversity has been enabled. Of most significance is the concept of
       the Active and Inactive units, where it is the Active ODU or IRFU transceiver which always
       radiates at the antenna and the Active CMU which forwards Ethernet frames to the
       network. The Inactive unit remains on standby to take over the role of the Active unit in
       case of a fault. However, there are some subtle differences as follows:
       •   When Receive Diversity is enabled, then a protection switch will not occur if the fault
           only affects the wireless receiver of the Active CMU, ODU or IRFU transceiver. This is
           because the Active CMU will seamlessly use the data received at the wireless interface
           of the Inactive CMU. The Active ODU or IRFU transceiver will continue to radiate at
           the antenna. Receiver faults in this category are the RFU Rx Synthesizer faults and
           complete loss of the wireless receive signal.

             configurations, the CMU copper data ports must also be connected to the same
             Ethernet Switch as the Fiber-Y interface. This is because the Fiber port of the Inactive
             CMU is necessarily disabled in Fiber-Y configurations. The copper port is therefore
             required in order for the Inactive CMU to send Receive Diversity Ethernet Frames.
             Note that the copper port will never carry customer traffic hence the single interface
             for customer traffic is not compromised.



           When Receive Diversity is enabled, there is a small impact on maximum Latency, and
           hence jitter. When there is significant fading and the Active CMU is using data which has
           been received at the wireless interface of the Inactive CMU, the latency increase will be
           affected by the customer traffic. The worst case is where jumbo frames are included in
           the customer traffic in which case the maximum increase in latency will be 150 μs. In
           periods where there is no significant fading, the Active CMU will use the data from its
           own wireless receiver in which case there will be a fixed increase in maximum latency of
           12 μs.

FIPS 140-2

       This section describes the (optional) FIPS 140-2 cryptographic mode of operation.
       PTP 800 provides an optional secure cryptographic mode of operation validated to Level 1
       of Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 140-2.



FIPS 140-2 capability
       A PTP 800 unit is capable of operating in the FIPS 140-2 mode when all of the following
       are true:
       •   The CMU license key has AES encryption enabled.
       •   The CMU license key has FIPS operation enabled.
       •   The CMU software image is validated for FIPS operation.


       Validated software image
       FIPS validated software images are indicated by a -FIPS suffix to the file name, for
       example: PTP800-04-10-FIPS.DLD2. The general features of a FIPS validated software image
       are identical to those of the standard image with the same version number. For example,
       PTP800-04-10-FIPS.DLD2 is equivalent to PTP800-04-10.DLD2 apart from the ability of the
       FIPS image to operate in FIPS mode.


       Indication of FIPS 140-2 capability
       The FIPS 140-2 capability is indicated by a distinctive symbol displayed at the top of the
       navigation bar in the web-based interface, as shown in Figure 37.

FIPS 140-2 mode
       PTP 800 operates in the FIPS 140-2 mode when all of the following are true:
       •     The PTP 800 is FIPS 140-2 capable.
       •     The HTTPS/TLS management interface is enabled.
       •     The HTTP management interface is disabled.
       •     The Telnet management interface is disabled.
       •     SNMP control of HTTP and Telnet is disabled.
       •     AES encryption is enabled at the wireless interface.
       •     The HTTPS/TLS management interface is configured for identity-based user accounts.
       •     RADIUS authentication of web-based users is disabled.


       FIPS operational mode alarm
       The FIPS operational mode alarm indicates that the unit is FIPS 140-2 capable, but has not
       been configured correctly for FIPS 140-2 operation. The FIPS operational mode alarm
       appears as shown in Figure 38.

       Figure 38 FIPS operational mode alarm




       Indication of FIPS 140-2 mode
       The PTP 800 is operating in FIPS 140-2 mode when the FIPS 140-2 capability logo is
       displayed in the navigation bar and the FIPS Operational Mode Alarm is absent from the
       Home page.


       Exiting from the FIPS 140-2 operational mode
       A PTP 800 in FIPS 140-2 operational mode can be prepared to accept new security
       configuration by zeroizing critical security parameters (CSPs). The unit remains
       FIPS 140-2 capable.

       Reverting to standard operation
       A FIPS 140-2 capable CMU can be used in standard (non-FIPS) mode by loading a
       standard (non-FIPS) software image and rebooting.
       The critical security parameters (CSPs) are zeroized when the unit is no longer FIPS 140-2
       Capable.

Link planning

       This section describes factors to be taken into account when planning PTP 800 links, such
       as site selection and cable length, and it introduces the PTP LINKPlanner.



Process
       The majority of the 6 to 38 GHz spectrum is licensed on a link by link basis. Licensing
       regimes vary from country to country, and the planning process must sometimes be
       adapted to local circumstances.
       Link planning must consider the following factors:

          1     Identify suitable sites at the ends of the link.

          2     Determine the data capacity and availability required for the link.

          3     Select an RF band, taking into account the range of link, the capacity required, the
                availability required, the licensing policy for bands in the region or country, and
                likely availability of individual licenses in that band.

          4     Decide whether spatial diversity is required. Regulations may mandate, or at least
                recommend spatial diversity for certain lengths of link. LINKPlanner can also be
                used to determine the availability improvement if Spatial Diversity is deployed.

          5     Decide whether 1+1 Hot Standby is required. This may be required for very critical
                links where outages due to equipment failure cannot be tolerated. If Spatial
                Diversity has been selected, 1+1 Hot Standby automatically becomes available.

          6     Decide whether the Radio Frequency Units should be installed on the mast (ODU)
                or whether they should be installed indoors (IRFU). Both ends of the link must be
                deployed with the same option.

          7     Use the PTP LINKPlanner to check that a satisfactory, unobstructed, line-of-sight
                path is possible between the ends.

          8     Use PTP LINKPlanner to investigate the performance increase provided by enabling
                ACM.

          9     Apply for an individual license.

         10     Use the PTP LINKPlanner with the license details to identify a Bill of Materials for
                the link.

         11     Order equipment from Cambium.

       Cambium offers a license coordination service for links in the USA. The service includes
       link study, PCN, FCC application filling, Schedule-K completion and one year license
       protection warranty. The FCC Microwave license coordination service may be ordered as
       Cambium part number WB3659.



Site selection
       To provide a clear line-of-sight path for the link, antennas should be mounted where they
       are elevated above their immediate surroundings and above obstructions. Although
       LINKPLanner can determine suitable antenna heights to clear the terrain, a site survey
       should be conducted to ensure that there are no other obstacles.



Wind loading
       For all the antennas supplied by Cambium, the maximum permitted wind velocities are:
       •     Operational wind velocity: 113 km/h (70 mph)
       •     Peak survival wind velocity: 249 km/h (155 mph)



Maximum IF cable length

           Applies to ODU deployments only.

       The maximum permitted IF cable lengths are:
       •     190 meters (620 ft) with CNT-400 or equivalent cable.
       •     300 meters (970 ft) with CNT-600 or equivalent cable.

Power supply considerations
       Consider the following when planning the power supply to the PTP 800.
       •     A means of removing power from the CMU and IRFU (if installed) without disrupting
             other equipment, for example a circuit breaker.
       •     If the link is protected, a means of removing power from one PTP 800 without
             disrupting the other PTP 800.
       •     Any circuit breaker or switch should be labeled.
       •     Wiring from the power source to the PTP 800 should be sized accordingly.
       •     All supply wiring should be to national standards and best practice.
       •     A rack mounted power supply should be grounded in accordance with national
             standards and best practice.
       For more information, refer to AC to DC converter specifications on page 4-4.



           A 4 Amp fuse or similar protection device must be provided between the –48 volt supply
           source and the PTP 800 CMU and IRFU (if installed).
           Always ensure that the power supply is turned off before attempting any service on the
           PTP 800 installation.
           The CMU and IRFU (if installed) are positive ground and the DC power supply or battery
           must also be positive ground or isolated.

Grounding and lightning protection

       This section describes the grounding and lightning protection requirements of PTP 800
       installations.



        Electro-magnetic discharge (lightning) damage is not covered under warranty.
        The recommendations in this guide, when followed correctly, give the user the
        best protection from the harmful effects of EMD. However 100% protection is
        neither implied nor possible.



The need for power surge protection
       Structures, equipment and people must be protected against power surges (typically
       caused by lightning) by conducting the surge current to ground via a separate preferential
       solid path. The actual degree of protection required depends on local conditions and
       applicable local regulations. Cambium recommends that PTP 800 installation is contracted
       to a professional installer.



Standards
       Full details of lightning protection methods and requirements can be found in the
       international standards IEC 61024-1 and IEC 61312-1, the U.S. National Electric Code
       ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984 or section 54 of the Canadian Electric Code.



        International and national standards take precedence over the requirements in this
        guide.

Grounding and lightning protection                                  Chapter 2: Planning considerations




Lightning Protection Zones
       The ‘rolling sphere method’ (Figure 42) is used to determine where it is safe to mount
       equipment. An imaginary sphere, typically 50 meters in radius, is rolled over the
       structure. Where the sphere rests against the ground and a strike termination device (such
       as a finial or ground bar), all the space under the sphere is considered to be in the zone of
       protection (Zone B). Similarly, where the sphere rests on two finials, the space under the
       sphere is considered to be in the zone of protection.

               Figure 42 Rolling sphere method to determine the lightning protection zones




       Assess locations on masts, towers and buildings to determine if the location is in Zone A or
       Zone B:
       •    Zone A: In this zone a direct lightning strike is possible. Do not mount equipment in
            this zone.
       •    Zone B: In this zone, direct EMD (lightning) effects are still possible, but mounting in
            this zone significantly reduces the possibility of a direct strike. Mount equipment in
            this zone.



           Never mount equipment in Zone A. Mounting in Zone A may put equipment,
           structures and life at risk.

General protection requirements
       To adequately protect a PTP 800 installation, both ground bonding and transient voltage
       surge suppression are required.


       Basic requirements
       The following basic protection requirements must be implemented;
       •   The outdoor equipment, that is antenna and ODU (if deployed), must be in ‘Zone B’
           (see Lightning Protection Zones on page 2-8).
       •   The indoor equipment, that is CMU and IRFU (if deployed), must be grounded at their
           chassis bonding points.


       Grounding cable requirements
       When selecting and installing grounding cables, the following requirements must be
       observed:
       •   All grounding cables must be no less than 16mm2 or #6AWG in size, solid or stranded,
           tinned and/or jacketed copper conductor.
       •   Grounding conductors must be run as short, straight, and smoothly as possible, with
           the fewest possible number of bends and curves.
       •   Grounding cables must not be installed with drip loops.
       •   All bends must have a minimum radius of 203 mm (8 in) and a minimum angle of 90°. A
           diagonal run is preferable to a bend, even though it does not follow the contour or run
           parallel to the supporting structure.
       •   All bends, curves and connections must be routed towards the grounding electrode
           system, ground rod, or ground bar.
       •   Grounding conductors must be securely fastened.
       •   Braided grounding conductors must not be used.
       •   Approved bonding techniques must be used for the connection of dissimilar metals.

       LPU and IF cable requirements

           Applies to ODU deployments only.

       The following LPU and IF cable protection requirements must be implemented:
       •     A lightning protection unit (LPU) must be installed within 600 mm (24 in) of the point
             at which the IF cable enters the building or equipment room. The use of the LPU
             provided in the lightning protection kit (WB3657) is strongly recommended.
       •     The IF cable must be bonded to the supporting structure in order to prevent lightning
             creating a potential between the structure and cable, which could cause arcing,
             resulting in damage to equipment.
       •     The IF cable must be grounded at the building entry point.


       Specific requirements for the ODU

           Applies to ODU deployments only.

       The following ODU protection requirements must be implemented:
       •     The distance between the ODU and LPU should be kept to a minimum; it is
             recommended that the cable supplied in the accessory kit be used.
       •     The IF cable length between the ODU and LPU must be less than 800mm.
       •     The top LPU should be mounted lower than the ODU.
       •     The ODU and top LPU should be bonded together with the 800 mm long 16mm2,
             #6AWG cable supplied in the accessory kit.
       •     The LPU should be bonded to the tower (or main grounding system) using the 600mm
             long 16mm2, #6AWG cable supplied in the accessory kit.

Protection requirements for a mast or tower installation

           Applies to ODU deployments only.

       If the equipment (ODU or antenna) is to be mounted on a metal tower or mast, then in
       addition to the general protection requirements (above), the following requirements must
       be observed:
       •     The equipment must be lower than the top of the tower or its lightning terminal and
             finial.
       •     The metal tower or mast must be correctly grounded.
       •     A grounding kit must be installed at the first point of contact between the IF cable and
             the tower, near the top.
       •     A grounding kit must be installed at the bottom of the tower, near the vertical to
             horizontal transition point. This grounding kit must be bonded to the tower or tower
             ground bus bar (TGB) if installed.
       •     If the tower is greater than 61 m (200 ft) in height, an additional grounding kit must be
             installed at the tower midpoint. Additional ground kits must be installed as necessary
             to reduce the distance between ground kits to 61 m (200 ft) or less.
       •     In high lightning prone geographical areas, additional ground kits should be installed
             at spacing between 15 to 22 m (50 to 75 ft). This is especially important on towers
             taller than 45 m (150 ft).

Protection requirements for the ODU on a high rise building

              Applies to ODU deployments only.

          If the antenna or ODU is to be mounted on a high rise building, it is likely that cable entry
          is at roof level (Figure 45) and equipment room several floors below (Figure 46). In
          addition to the general protection requirements (above), the following requirements must
          be observed:
          •     The antenna and ODU must be below the lightning terminals and finials.
          •     A grounding conductor must be installed around the roof perimeter, to form the main
                roof perimeter lightning protection ring.
          •     Air terminals are typically installed along the length of the main roof perimeter
                lightning protection ring typically every 6.1m (20ft).

       The following protection requirements must be observed inside multi-story or high rise
       buildings (Figure 46):
       •   The IF cable shield must be bonded to the building grounding system at the entry point
           to the building.
       •   The IF cable shield must be bonded to the building grounding system at the entry point
           to the equipment area.
       •   An LPU must be installed within 600 mm (24 in) of the entry point to the equipment
           area.

Data network planning                                            Chapter 2: Planning considerations




Data network planning

       This section describes factors to be considered when planning PTP 800 data networks.



Management mode
       Decide how the PTP 800 will be managed. There are three modes of management: out-of-
       band local, out-of-band and in-band.

       In the default out-of-band local management mode, the management agent can be reached
       only from the Management port of the CMU. This mode is appropriate during
       configuration and installation when the equipment is managed using a locally connected
       PC at each end of the link. It may additionally be useful where network management
       communication is based on a completely independent data network (for example, one
       based on a 3G cellular wireless terminal at each site).

       In many network applications the wireless link will provide the only communication path to
       a remote site. In such applications, CMUs and other network equipment at the remote site
       will be managed over the wireless link. For applications of this type, select either out-of-
       band or in-band management mode.
       Out-of-band management should be configured by operators who wish to fully separate
       customer data traffic from the traffic generated by management of the network equipment.
       When configured for out-of-band management mode, the PTP 800 supports two networks,
       the customer data network and the management network. The customer data is
       transported between the Data ports of the CMUs and the management traffic is
       transported between the Management ports. The CMU management agent is also part of
       the management network. Traffic never crosses between the two networks. The
       management network has a configurable Committed Information Rate of between
       100 kbps and 2 Mbps. It will also provide a maximum of 10 Mbps when there is no
       customer traffic to send over the link.
       When configured for in-band management mode, the PTP 800 only supports a single
       network. Customer traffic and Management traffic are multiplexed and passed between
       the Data ports of the CMUs. The CMU Management port is disabled in this mode. This
       mode of operation may be useful where a customer has a limited number of Ethernet ports
       at a site.
       Make sure that the same management mode is selected for CMUs at both ends of a link.
       See Management network on page 1-43 for further explanation of management modes.



        When using out-of-band management mode, avoid connecting Management and Data
        ports in the same network. Loops in the network can be complicated to detect and
        correct.

PTP 800 Series User Guide                                                     Data network planning




VLAN membership
       Decide if the IP interface of the CMU management agent will be connected in a VLAN. If
       so, decide if this is a standard (IEEE 802.1Q) VLAN or provider bridged (IEEE 802.1ad)
       VLAN, and select the VLAN ID for this VLAN.
       Use of a separate management VLAN is strongly recommended for applications based on
       the in-band management mode. Use of the management VLAN helps to ensure that the
       CMU management agent cannot be accessed by customers.
       See Management network on page 1-43 for further explanation of VLAN membership.



Priority for management traffic
       Choose the Ethernet priority for management traffic generated within the CMU
       management agent. The priority should be selected so as to be consistent with existing
       policy on priority of management traffic in the network. Use of a high priority is strongly
       recommended for applications based on the in-band management mode to ensure that
       management traffic is not discarded if the link is overloaded.



IP interface
       Choose an IP address for the IP interface of the CMU management agent. The IP address
       must be unique and valid for the connected network segment and VLAN. Find out the
       correct subnet mask and gateway IP address for this network segment and VLAN.
       Ensure that the design of the data network permits bi-direction routing of IP datagrams
       between network management systems and the CMUs. For example, ensure that the
       gateway IP address identifies a router or other gateway that provides access to the rest of
       the data network.
       See Management network on page 1-43 for further explanation of configuration of the IP
       interface.



Quality of service for bridged Ethernet traffic
       Decide how quality of service will be configured in PTP 800 to minimize frame loss and
       latency for high priority traffic. Wireless links often have lower data capacity than wired
       links or network equipment like switches and routers, and quality of service configuration
       is most critical at network bottlenecks.

       PTP 800 provides eight queues for traffic waiting for transmission over the wireless link.
       Q0 is the lowest priority queue and Q7 is the highest priority queue. Traffic is scheduled
       using strict priority; in other words, traffic in a given queue is transmitted when all higher
       priority queues are empty.


       Layer 2 control protocols
       Select the transmission queue for each of the recognized layer 2 control protocols (L2CP).
       These protocols are essential to correct operation of the Ethernet network, and are
       normally mapped to a high priority queue. Ethernet frames that match one of the
       recognized L2CPs are not subject to the Ethernet and IP/MPLS classification described
       below.


       Priority schemes
       Select the priority scheme based on Ethernet priority or IP/MPLS priority to match QoS
       policy in the rest of the data network. Ethernet priority is also known as Layer 2 or link
       layer priority. IP/MPLS priority is also known as Layer 3 or network layer priority.


       Ethernet priority scheme
       Ethernet priority is encoded in a VLAN tag. Use the Ethernet priority scheme if the
       network carries traffic in customer or service provider VLANs, and the priority in the
       VLAN tag has been set to indicate the priority of each type of traffic. Select a suitable
       mapping from the Ethernet priority to the eight PTP 800 queues.
       An advantage of Ethernet priority is that any VLAN-tagged frame can be marked with a
       priority, regardless of the higher-layer protocols contained within the frame. A
       disadvantage of Ethernet priority is that the priority in the frame must be regenerated
       whenever traffic passes through a router.
       The user interface provides a convenient shortcut to select the assignment recommended
       in IEEE 802.1Q-2005.


       IP/MPLS priority scheme
       IP priority is encoded in the DSCP field in an IPv4 or IPv6 header. The DSCP field provides
       64 levels of priority. Determine the DSCP values used in the network and select a suitable
       mapping from these DSCP values to the eight PTP 800 queues.
       An advantage of IP priority is that priority in the IP header is normally propagated
       transparently through a router. Also, the DSCP field supports a large number of distinct
       priority code points. A disadvantage of DSCP is that frames receive a single default
       classification if they contain a network layer protocol other than IPv4 or IPv6.
       MPLS priority is encoded in the traffic class (TC) field in the outermost MPLS label. Select
       a suitable mapping from MPLS TC to the eight PTP 800 queues.

       Hot Standby links
       In a 1+1 Hot Standby link, set the same QoS configuration on primary and secondary
       units.


       Out-of-band management
       When the wireless link is configured for out-of-band management, select an appropriate
       setting for the Management CIR attribute. A high CIR will provide greater capacity for
       management traffic, at the cost of allowing bursty management traffic to have a greater
       impact on capacity remaining for customer traffic. A low CIR may result in extended
       response times for network management traffic.



Fast Ethernet port shutdown
       If the PTP 800 link is part of a redundant network where STP or EAPS is used in external
       Ethernet bridges in order to resolve loops, enable the Data Port Wireless Down Alert and
       Management Data Port Wireless Down Alert to ensure that protection protocols are
       invoked promptly following loss of the wireless link.

Security planning

       This section describes how to plan for PTP 800 links to operate in secure mode.



Planning for SNTP operation
       To prepare for Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) operation:
       •   Identify the time zone and daylight saving requirements that apply to the system.
       •   Determine whether or not there is a requirement to synchronize the PTP 800 clock with
           an SNTP server at regular intervals. If SNTP server synchronization is not required,
           the clock can be set to run manually. The clock is battery backed and will continue to
           operate for several days after the CMU is switched off.
       •   If SNTP server synchronization is required, identify the details of one or two SNTP
           servers: IP address and server key.
       •   For secure applications, the PTP 800 can be configured to authenticate received NTP
           messages using the DES or MD5 protocols.



Planning for AES encryption
       To prepare for wireless link encryption:
       •   Choose 128-bit or 256-bit AES encryption.
       •   Use a cryptographic key generator to generate an encryption key for AES. The key
           length is dictated by the selected AES encryption algorithm (128 or 256 bits). The same
           encryption key is required at each link end.

Planning for HTTPS/TLS operation
       To prepare for HTTPS/TLS operation, ensure that the cryptographic material listed in
       Table 7 is available.

                            128-bits. License keys with AES-256 will
                            require a key of keys of 256-bits. The key
                            output should be in ASCII hexadecimal

Planning for FIPS 140-2 operation
       To prepare for FIPS 140-2 secure mode operation, ensure that the following cryptographic
       material is generated using a FIPS-approved cryptographic generator:
       •     Key of Keys
       •     TLS Private Key and Public Certificates. FIPS 140-2 now recommends 2048 bit keys.
       •     Entropy Input
       •     Wireless Link Encryption Key for AES
       Ensure that the web browsers used are enabled for HTTPS/TLS operation using FIPS-
       approved cipher specifications.
       Ensure that following attributes of user accounts for the web-based management interface
       have been configured to match the operator’s network security policy:
       •     Auto Logout Period.
       •     Maximum Number of Login Attempts.
       •     Login Attempt Lockout.
       •     Minimum Password Change Period.
       •     Password Expiry Period.
       •     Webpage Session Control

       Ensure that the following are configured:
       •     Password complexity rules reset to ‘best practice’ values.
       •     User account passwords compliant with the network security policy.
       •     RADIUS authentication = Disabled.



           Configure all of the above correctly to ensure that PTP 800 is operating in compliance
           with the FIPS 140-2 validation.

       FIPS validated software is available from System Release PTP800-04-00. Load standard
       (non-FIPS) software from PTP800-04-00 or later before loading a FIPS software image.

Planning for SNMPv3 operation

       SNMP security mode
       Decide how SNMPv3 security will be configured.
       MIB-based security management uses standard SNMPv3 MIBs to configure the user-based
       security model and the view-based access control model. This approach provides
       considerable flexibility, allowing a network operator to tailor views and security levels
       appropriate for different types of user. MIB-based security management may allow a
       network operator to take advantage of built-in security management capabilities of
       existing network managers.
       Web-based security management allows an operator to configure users, security levels,
       privacy and authentication protocols, and passphrases using the web-based management
       interface. The capabilities supported are somewhat less flexible than those supported
       using the MIB-based security management, but will be sufficient in many applications.
       Selection of web-based management for SNMPv3 security disables the MIB-based security
       management. The system does not support concurrent use of MIB-based and web-based
       management of SNMPv3 security.


       Web-based management of SNMPv3 security
       Initial configuration of SNMPv3 security is available only to HTTP or HTTPS/TLS user
       accounts with security role of Security Officer.
       Identify the minimum security role of HTTP or HTTPS/TLS user accounts that will be
       permitted access for web-based management of SNMPv3 security. Two roles are available:
       •   System Administrator
       •   Security Officer
       Identify the format used for SNMP Engine ID. Three formats are available:
       •   MAC address (default)
       •   IP address
       •   Text string
       If SNMP Engine ID will be based on a text string, identify the text string required by the
       network management system. This is often based on some identifier that survives
       replacement of the PTP hardware.
       Identify the user names and security roles of initial SNMPv3 users. Two security roles are
       available:
       •   Read Only
       •   System Administrator

       Identify the security level for each of the security roles. Three security levels are available:
       •    No authentication, no privacy
       •    Authentication, no privacy
       •    Authentication, privacy
       If authentication is required, identify the protocol. Two authentication protocols are
       available:
       •    MD5
       •    SHA
       If privacy will be used, identify the protocol. Two privacy protocols are available:
       •    DES
       •    AES


       AES link encryption is only available to users who have purchased an appropriate license
       key.
       If authentication or authentication and privacy protocols are required, identify passphrases
       for each protocol for each SNMP user. It is considered good practice to use different
       passphrases for authentication and privacy. Passphrases must have length between 8 and
       32 characters, and may contain any of the characters listed in Table 8.

Planning for RADIUS operation
       Configure RADIUS where remote authentication is required for users of the web-based
       interface. Remote authentication has the following advantages:
       •   Control of passwords can be centralized.
       •   Management of user accounts can be more sophisticated For example, users can be
           prompted by email to change passwords at regular intervals. As another example,
           passwords can be checked for inclusion of dictionary words and phrases.
       •   Passwords can be updated without reconfiguring multiple network elements.
       •   User accounts can be disabled without reconfiguring multiple network elements.
       Remote authentication has one significant disadvantage in a wireless link product such as
       PTP 800. If the wireless link is down, a unit on the remote side of the broken link may be
       prevented from contacting a RADIUS Server, with the result that users are unable to
       access the web-based interface.
       One useful strategy would be to combine RADIUS authentication for normal operation with
       a single locally-authenticated user account for emergency use.
       PTP 800 provides a choice of three authentication methods:
       •   CHAP
       •   MS-CHAPv2
       •   PEAP(MS-CHAPv2)
       PEAP(MS-CHAPv2) is supported for Microsoft Windows Server 2003.

       Ensure that the authentication method selected in PTP 800 is supported by the RADIUS
       server.
       RADIUS is not permitted in FIPS 140-2 applications. RADIUS and PEAP(MS-CHAPv2) are
       mandatory in UC-APL applications.


       RADIUS attributes
       If the standard RADIUS attribute session-timeout (Type 27) is present in a RADIUS
       response, PTP 800 sets a maximum session length for the authenticated user. If the
       attribute is absent, the maximum session length is infinite.
       If the standard RADIUS attribute idle-timeout (Type 28) is present in a RADIUS response,
       PTP 800 overrides the Auto Logout Timer with this value in the authenticated session.

       If the vendor-specific RADIUS attribute auth-role is present in a RADIUS response,
       PTP 800 selects the role for the authenticated user according to auth-role. The supported
       values of auth-role are as follows:
       •   0: Invalid role. The user is not admitted.
       •   1: Read Only
       •   2: System Administrator
       •   3: Security Officer
       If the vendor-specific auth-role attribute is absent, but the standard service-type (Type 6)
       attribute is present, PTP 800 selects the role for the authenticated user according to
       service-type. The supported values of service-type are as follows:
       •   Login(1): Read Only
       •   Administrative(6): System Administrator
       •   NAS Prompt(7): Read Only

       If the auth-role and service-type attributes are absent, PTP 800 selects the Read Only role.
       The auth-role vendor-specific attribute is defined in Table 10.

Planning 1+0 links


Concept of a 1+0 link
       A 1+0 link is the simplest link to deploy. There is no redundant equipment deployed and so
       costs are minimized. The 1+0 link provides no protection in the case of equipment failure.
       If a link is very critical to network operation and where a service outage due to equipment
       failure cannot be tolerated, consider deploying a 1+1 Hot Standby link.



Antenna, RFU and CMU configurations for 1+0
       A 1+0 link may be implemented using the following link end configurations:
       •   ODU with direct mount antenna (Figure 49).
       •   ODU with remote mount antenna (Figure 50).
       •   IRFU with remote mount antenna (Figure 51).

       Do not install an ODU and an IRFU in the same link, as they cannot interwork.

Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links


Concept of a 1+1 Hot Standby link
       A 1+1 Hot Standby link provides protection against single point equipment failure. This is
       achieved by the deployment of extra equipment which automatically takes over the
       operation of the link in case of failure.

       The two main advantages of a 1+1 Hot Standby link are:
       •     Better availability. In the unlikely event of equipment failure, the 1+1 Hot Standby link
             becomes operational again with a down time of less than 250 ms. This is compared to a
             lengthy down time in the event of equipment failure in a 1+0 link. This may be
             particularly important in remote locations or for safety critical applications.
       •     Maintenance operations can be carried out, such as installation of new software, with a
             minimum of interruption to the service provided by the link.



Antenna, RFU and CMU configurations for 1+1

           Do not install an ODU and an IRFU in the same link, as they cannot interwork.

       A 1+1 Hot Standby link may be implemented using the following link end configurations:

       The coupler mounts directly to the back of the antenna (Figure 53).
       The choice of coupler may be equal or unequal. The unequal coupler provides a better link
       budget (nominally 6 dB) for the Primary ODUs at the expense of the link budget of the
       Secondary ODUs.

Designating primary and secondary units
       At each end, the CMU which is connected to the ODU or IRFU transceiver with the best
       link budget should be configured as the Primary unit. In ODU deployments with unequal
       couplers, this will be the ODU connected to the arm of the coupler with the lowest path
       loss. The coupler labels this arm as "Main". In the case of separate antennas, it will be the
       ODU connected to the antenna with the highest gain. If equal gain antennas are used,
       either CMU can be configured as Primary CMU. In IRFU deployments, the CMU which
       connects to the left hand transceiver must be configured as the Primary CMU.
       The procedure for configuring the primary and secondary units is described in Configuring
       1+1 Hot Standby links on page 6-51).



Link Planning for 1+1 Hot Standby links
       A 1+1 Hot Standby link has four radio paths:
       •   Primary end A to Primary end B
       •   Primary end A to Secondary end B
       •   Secondary end A to Primary end B
       •   Secondary end A to Secondary end B

       Although a 1+1 Hot Standby link will normally operate on the Primary to Primary radio
       path, LINKPlanner does allow the user to check wireless link availability for all four paths,
       any of which could become the active path in the case of a fault causing a protection
       switch at either end of the link. When using LINKPlanner, ensure that the availability of all
       four paths meets your requirements.

Network configurations for 1+1

       1+1 Hot Standby link management
       In a 1+1 Hot Standby Link, each CMU is managed separately and must be assigned its
       own IP address.


       Choosing Ethernet switches
       The Ethernet switch must react to a brief disconnection of an Ethernet port by flushing its
       forwarding data base (see Bridging in 1+1 links on page 1-66). This allows the Ethernet
       switch to learn the new bridging path following a protection switch. When choosing an
       Ethernet switch, ensure that this feature is supported.



           Many inexpensive unmanaged switches fail to meet this requirement.

       The switch must support the required number of ports for 1+1 Hot Standby operation.
       This is dependent on the following factors:
       •     Whether copper or fiber is the physical connection medium or whether the Fiber-Y
             option is required.
       •     Whether in-band or out-of-band management mode is required.

       The details of these requirements are in the following sections.


       1+1 Hot Standby link with out-of-band management
       Out-of-band management provides two separate networks, one for customer data and one
       for managing the network. Please refer to Management network on page 1-43 for more
       details on out-of-band Management.
       When Out of Band management is selected, the Ethernet switch must provide two ports in
       order to carry the management traffic to both CMUs. As the protection interface shares
       the same physical socket as the management port, an Out of Band Protection Splitter is
       required to route the management traffic from the two CMUs to the Ethernet switch.
       For the customer data, there are two methods of connection, either redundant data ports
       or Fiber-Y.
       For redundant data ports, the Ethernet switch must provide two ports for carrying
       customer data traffic to both CMUs. The choice of physical medium can be copper or fiber
       and this can be selected independently for each CMU. This arrangement is shown in
       Figure 59.




phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                    2-43
Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links                                    Chapter 2: Planning considerations



       The Fiber-Y arrangement can be a useful feature in complex networks, such as ring
       architectures, where there is a requirement for the link to provide a single interface at the
       Ethernet Switch. The Ethernet Switch must provide a single fiber port. This arrangement
       is shown in Figure 60.

       In Band management provides a single network which multiplexes customer data with
       management data. Please refer to Management network on page 1-43 for more details of
       this mode.

       When In Band is configured, the Ethernet Switch must provide two ports to carry the
       traffic to the two CMUs. The choice of physical medium can be copper or fiber and this can
       be selected independently for each CMU. This arrangement is shown in Figure 61.
       For correct 1+1 Hot Standby operation, the two CMUs must also be connected together
       over the protection interface. Please refer to Protection cable on page 4-17.

Planning for Receive Diversity
       PTP 800 supports the Receive Diversity feature, which provides hitless protection against
       receiver faults. This feature can be enabled (at the CMU) in any of the supported 1+1 Hot
       Standby configurations described in Antenna, RFU and CMU configurations for 1+1 on
       page 2-35.
       This feature provides Receive Spatial Diversity when two antennas are installed at the
       same end, that is, in the following configurations:
       •   ODUs with separate direct mount antennas on page 2-38
       •   ODUs with separate remote mount antennas on page 2-39
       •   IRFU 1+1 Tx MHSB / Rx SD with two remote mount antennas on page 2-41

       For further information on the Receive Diversity feature, see Receive Diversity on page 1-
       67.

PTP 800 Series User Guide                                              Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links



       Ethernet Switch Requirements for Receive Diversity
       In addition to the Ethernet Switch features required to support operation of a 1+1 Hot
       Standby link, further features are required when Receive Diversity is enabled. This is
       because the Ethernet Switch must bridge special Receive Diversity Ethernet Frames from
       the Inactive CMU to the Active CMU. The payload of these frames contains the
       demodulated and decoded data received at the wireless interface of the Inactive CMU. The
       Active CMU can then make use of the data received at the wireless interface of either
       CMU.
       •   The customer data ports which connect the Ethernet Switch to the CMU must be
           capable of negotiating at 1 Gbps full duplex. This is to ensure that latency is kept to a
           minimum and that the highest capacity configurations can be supported. Note that
           Receive Diversity Frames are not sent from the Inactive CMU if either CMU has
           trained at less than 1 Gbps full duplex.
       •   The Ethernet Switch must support the configuration of Virtual LANs using either
           802.1Q or 802.1ad. Configuring a dedicated VLAN to bridge Receive Diversity Ethernet
           Frames from the Inactive CMU to the Active CMU prevents these frames from flooding
           the network.
       •   The network configurations are identical to those described for the 1+1 Hot Standby
           configurations (see Network configurations for 1+1 on page 2-43), with the exception
           of the Fiber-Y configuration. In addition to connecting the Fiber ports of the CMU to
           the Ethernet switch using Fiber-Y, the copper data ports of the CMUs must also
           connect to the Ethernet switch (see Figure 60). The copper data port will only be used
           for forwarding Receive Diversity Frames out of the Inactive CMU which will necessarily
           have its fiber port disabled in the Fiber-Y configuration. Customer data will only ever
           be forwarded to and from the Fiber port of the Active CMU ensuring that the Fiber-Y
           configuration meets the requirement for a single customer data port at the Ethernet
           switch.


       VLAN considerations for Receive Diversity
       The ports which connect the Ethernet Switch to the CMUs must be configured into a
       dedicated VLAN for Receive Diversity Ethernet Frames. Only these two ports must be
       configured in this VLAN to prevent the frames from flooding the network. Existing VLANs
       configured for these ports will not be affected. The following attributes must be considered
       when planning for Receive Diversity.
       •   Select either C-TAG (802.1Q) or S-TAG (802.1ad) operation for the Receive Diversity
           VLAN. The configuration at the switch must match the value of the CMU attribute Rx
           Diversity TPID.
       •   Select a dedicated VLAN identifier (VID) for the Receive Diversity VLAN. The
           configuration at the switch must match the value of the CMU attribute Rx Diversity
           VID.




phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                      2-47
Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links                                      Chapter 2: Planning considerations



       •     At the Ethernet Switch, configure the Receive Diversity VLAN for tagged operation. At
             the ingress, the ports in this VLAN must accept tagged frames which arrive with the
             Receive Diversity VID and forward them to the other port which is also a member of
             this VLAN. At the egress, the Ethernet Switch must NOT strip the Receive Diversity
             tag.


       Performance considerations for Receive Diversity
       As the Ethernet Switch multiplexes the Receive Diversity Frames with customer traffic, the
       impact of the Receive Diversity feature on latency and jitter must be considered.

       When the link is not fading, the maximum latency increases by 12 μs in all configurations.
       When the link fades to the point where the Active unit can no longer demodulate a signal
       and where the data stream from the Inactive unit is being used, the maximum latency
       increases to a value which is dependent on the frames size of the customer traffic as
       shown in Table 11.

       Table 11 Frame size and latency relationship in Rx SD links

        Maximum Customer                Latency increase with
        Frame Size (octets)             Receive Diversity enabled
                                        (µs)

        64                              53

        9600                            150

       In all cases, the minimum latency does not change hence jitter is increased.


       Link Planning for Spatial Diversity
       Spatial Diversity can significantly improve the availability of a link, particularly for long
       links. Indeed regulations can recommend or even mandate that Spatial Diversity is
       deployed for links which are longer than a specific range.
       LINKPlanner calculates link availability for all link configurations and provides a very
       convenient way of seeing the effect of enabling Spatial Diversity.

       Note that when ACM is enabled, Spatial Diversity only increases the availability of the
       lowest configured modulation mode. The availability of higher order modes is not
       increased.

Planning 2+0 links


Concept of a 2+0 link
       A 2+0 link consists of two independent 1+0 links which connect the same two sites and
       which share an antenna. The two 1+0 links must operate on different frequencies and so a
       separate license is generally required for each 1+0 link. The two 1+0 links are managed
       independently as two separate links.



        Link aggregation can be achieved by deployment of a suitable Ethernet switch at each
        end of the link. This is outside the scope of this user guide.



Antenna, RFU and CMU configurations for 2+0

        Do not install an ODU and an IRFU in the same link, as they cannot interwork.

       A 2+0 link may be implemented using the following link end configurations:

       IRFU 2+0 with single remote mount antenna
       Requires a length of elliptical waveguide dependant on the distance between the antenna
       and the IRFU (Figure 66). Requires waveguide dehydration accessories. The receiver
       coupling is internal to the IRFU. The IRFU may be purchased with equal or unequal
       coupling, the unequal coupling option provides a better link budget (nominally 6 dB) for
       the Primary transceivers.

Network configurations for 2+0
       In a 2+0 configuration, Link ‘A’ and Link ‘B’ are independent. Each CMU is connected to
       the network using one of the methods described in Network configurations for 1+0 on
       page 2-34. The two links may be managed in different ways, for example Link ‘A’ may be
       out-of-band and Link ‘B’ may be in-band.



Frequency spacing in 2+0 ODU based links
       For co-polar deployments, the transmit frequency of link A and link B at a given end must
       be separated by at least two channel separations. For example, if the channel separation is
       configured as 28 MHz, the spacing between the two transmit frequencies must be at least
       56 MHz.
       For cross-polar deployments, the transmit frequency of link A and link B at a given end
       must be separated by at least one channel separation. For example, if the channel
       separation is configured as 28 MHz, the spacing between the two transmit frequencies
       must be at least 28 MHz.



Frequency spacing in 2+0 IRFU based links
       In a 2+0 IRFU-based link, plan the four transmit frequencies to meet the following
       requirements:
       •   At each link end, the two transmit frequencies must be separated by at least the
           amount quoted in Table 12.
       •   At each link end, the transmit and receive frequencies must be separated by at least
           the amount quoted in Table 13.

       (*) This is the minimum allowed separation between the four combinations of
       transmit/receive frequency. For example, in the 6 GHz band with an RF filter bandwidth of
       30 MHz:
       •   Link ‘A’ Tx and Link ‘A’ Rx must be separated by at least 70 MHz.
       •   Link ‘A’ Tx and Link ‘B’ Rx must be separated by at least 70 MHz.
       •   Link ‘B’ Tx and Link ‘A’ Rx must be separated by at least 70 MHz.
       •   Link ‘B’ Tx and Link ‘B’ Rx must be separated by at least 70 MHz.

       (*1) The antennas in a 1+0 link are normally single-polar. However, to provide for an
       anticipated upgrade to 2+0, dual-polar remote mount antennas may be installed.

       (*2) Dual-polar direct mount antennas are supplied with an orthogonal mode transducer.
       They are for 2+0 cross-polar links only. Operators can upgrade any standard antenna to a
       direct mount dual polar antenna by purchasing an orthogonal mount (OMK); refer to
       Ordering OMKs on page 2-90.



           Only low VSWR antennas are supported for IRFU based installations. Use PTP
           LINKPlanner to confirm that the selected antenna is compatible with the IRFU.

Ordering ODUs

           Applies to ODU deployments only.

       Determine the number of ODUs required per link, as follows:
       •     1+0 links: 2 ODUs.
       •     1+1 Hot Standby links: 4 ODUs.
       •     2+0 links: 4 ODUs.

       Cambium supply the ODUs listed in the following tables:
       •     Lower 6 GHz: Table 38.
       •     Upper 6 GHz: Table 39.
       •     7 GHz: Table 40.
       •     8 GHz: Table 41.
       •     11 GHz: Table 42 (ODU-B) and Table 43 (ODU-A).
       •     13 GHz: Table 44.
       •     15 GHz: Table 45.
       •     18 GHz: Table 46 (ODU-B) and Table 47 (ODU-A).
       •     23 GHz: Table 48 (ODU-B) and Table 49 (ODU-A).
       •     26 GHz: Table 50.
       •     28 GHz: Table 51.
       •     32 GHz: Table 52.
       •     38 GHz: Table 53.




           If ODU-B is available (11, 18 and 23 GHz), choose it in preference to ODU-A. Do not
           install ODU-A and ODU-B in the same link.

Ordering OMKs

        Applies to ODU deployments only.

       An orthogonal mounting kit (OMK) is only required if a previously purchased antenna is to
       be upgraded to support a direct mount interface in a 2+0 cross-polar link. An OMK can
       only be fitted to an antenna that is in the same band, for example, a 6 GHz antenna can
       only accept a 6 GHz OMK. Cambium supply the OMKs listed in Table 61.

Ordering capacity upgrades

        Purchasing a capacity upgrade will not necessarily lead to an increase in data capacity, as
        capacity also depends on channel bandwidth and modulation mode. For more
        information, see Capacity, transmit power and sensitivity on page 4-22.

       Available capacity upgrades are listed in Table 71 and Table 72. Select either a single-step
       upgrade or one or more step-by-step upgrades, as required.

       OF THE SOFTWARE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO USE ON THE PRODUCT, WILL
       CONSTITUTE YOUR ACCEPTANCE TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.




Definitions
       In this Agreement, the word “Software” refers to the set of instructions for computers,
       in executable form and in any media, (which may include diskette, CD-ROM, downloadable
       internet, hardware, or firmware) licensed to you. The word “Documentation” refers to

Conditions of use
       Any use of the Software and Documentation outside of the conditions set forth in this
       Agreement is strictly prohibited and will be deemed a breach of this Agreement.

       1. Only you, your employees or agents may use the Software and Documentation. You will
       take all necessary steps to insure that your employees and agents abide by the terms of
       this Agreement.
       2. You will use the Software and Documentation (i) only for your internal business
       purposes; (ii) only as described in the Software and Documentation; and (iii) in strict
       accordance with this Agreement.
       3. You may use the Software and Documentation, provided that the use is in conformance
       with the terms set forth in this Agreement.
           4. Portions of the Software and Documentation are protected by United States
           copyright laws, international treaty provisions, and other applicable laws. Therefore,
           you must treat the Software like any other copyrighted material (for example, a book
           or musical recording) except that you may either: (i) make 1 copy of the transportable
           part of the Software (which typically is supplied on diskette, CD-ROM, or
           downloadable internet), solely for back-up purposes; or (ii) copy the transportable part
           of the Software to a PC hard disk, provided you keep the original solely for back-up
           purposes. If the Documentation is in printed form, it may not be copied. If the
           Documentation is in electronic form, you may print out 1 copy, which then may not be
           copied. With regard to the copy made for backup or archival purposes, you agree to
           reproduce any Cambium copyright notice, and other proprietary legends appearing
           thereon. Such copyright notice(s) may appear in any of several forms, including
           machine-readable form, and you agree to reproduce such notice in each form in which
           it appears, to the extent it is physically possible to do so. Unauthorized duplication of
           the Software or Documentation constitutes copyright infringement, and in the United
           States is punishable in federal court by fine and imprisonment.
           5. You will not transfer, directly or indirectly, any product, technical data or software
           to any country for which the United States Government requires an export license or
           other governmental approval without first obtaining such license or approval.

Title and restrictions
       If you transfer possession of any copy of the Software and Documentation to another
       party outside of the terms of this agreement, your license is automatically terminated.
       Title and copyrights to the Software and Documentation and any copies made by you
       remain with Cambium and its licensors. You will not, and will not permit others to:
       (i) modify, translate, decompile, bootleg, reverse engineer, disassemble, or extract the
       inner workings of the Software or Documentation, (ii) copy the look-and-feel or
       functionality of the Software or Documentation; (iii) remove any proprietary notices,
       marks, labels, or logos from the Software or Documentation; (iv) rent or transfer all or
       some of the Software or Documentation to any other party without Cambium’s prior
       written consent; or (v) utilize any computer software or hardware which is designed to
       defeat any copy protection device, should the Software and Documentation be equipped
       with such a protection device. If the Software and Documentation is provided on multiple
       types of media (such as diskette, CD-ROM, downloadable internet), then you will only use
       the medium which best meets your specific needs, and will not loan, rent, lease, or transfer
       the other media contained in the package without Cambium’s written consent.
       Unauthorized copying of the Software or Documentation, or failure to comply with any of
       the provisions of this Agreement, will result in automatic termination of this license.




Confidentiality
       You acknowledge that all Software and Documentation contain valuable proprietary
       information and trade secrets and that unauthorized or improper use of the Software and
       Documentation will result in irreparable harm to Cambium for which monetary damages
       would be inadequate and for which Cambium will be entitled to immediate injunctive
       relief. If applicable, you will limit access to the Software and Documentation to those of
       your employees and agents who need to use the Software and Documentation for your
       internal business purposes, and you will take appropriate action with those employees and
       agents to preserve the confidentiality of the Software and Documentation, using the same
       degree of care to avoid unauthorized or improper disclosure as you use for the protection
       of your own proprietary software, but in no event less than reasonable care.
       You have no obligation to preserve the confidentiality of any proprietary information that:
       (i) was in the public domain at the time of disclosure; (ii) entered the public domain
       through no fault of yours; (iii) was given to you free of any obligation to keep it
       confidential; (iv) is independently developed by you; or (v) is disclosed as required by law
       provided that you notify Cambium prior to such disclosure and provide Cambium with a
       reasonable opportunity to respond.

Right to use Cambium’s name
       Except as required in “Conditions of use”, you will not, during the term of this
       Agreement or thereafter, use any trademark of Cambium Networks, or any word or symbol
       likely to be confused with any Cambium Networks trademark, either alone or in any
       combination with another word or words.




Transfer
       The Software and Documentation may not be transferred to another party without the
       express written consent of Cambium, regardless of whether or not such transfer is
       accomplished by physical or electronic means. Cambium’s consent may be withheld at its
       discretion and may be conditioned upon transferee paying all applicable license fees and
       agreeing to be bound by this Agreement.




Updates
       During the first 12 months after purchase of a Product, or during the term of any
       executed Maintenance and Support Agreement for the Product, you are entitled to receive
       Updates. An “Update” means any code in any form which is a bug fix, patch, error
       correction, or minor enhancement, but excludes any major feature added to the Software.
       Updates are available for download at the support website.

       Major features may be available from time to time for an additional license fee. If
       Cambium makes available to you major features and no other end user license agreement
       is provided, then the terms of this Agreement will apply.




Maintenance
       Except as provided above, Cambium is not responsible for maintenance or field service
       of the Software under this Agreement.

       CAMBIUM DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET YOUR

       CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, OR RELIABILITY OF THE SOFTWARE AND
       DOCUMENTATION. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties,
       so the above exclusion may not apply to you.




Limitation of liability
       THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF CAMBIUM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR DAMAGES
       WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR THE PRODUCT LICENSED
       UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. IN NO EVENT WILL CAMBIUM BE LIABLE IN ANY WAY
       FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF
       ANY NATURE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST BUSINESS PROFITS, OR
       LIABILITY OR INJURY TO THIRD PERSONS, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR NOT,
       REGARDLESS OF WHETHER CAMBIUM HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBLITY OF
       SUCH DAMAGES. Some jurisdictions do not permit limitations of liability for incidental or
       consequential damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to you.

Capacity, transmit power and sensitivity
        This section contains tables of wireless performance for PTP 800 links. The tables specify,
        for each frequency band, region (FCC and ETSI), bandwidth and modulation mode, the
        following data:
        •   F/R mode: This means ‘Fixed or reference mode’. It indicates whether or not the
            modulation mode is available as a fixed or reference mode.
        •   Cap (Mbps): This means ‘Capacity’. It is the maximum sustained aggregate load
            applied to the data and management Ethernet ports that can be delivered to the
            remote Ethernet ports without packet discard. This capacity can be achieved with
            Ethernet Frames which have the highest configured Quality of Service class. Capacity
            is approximately 1.5% lower for Ethernet Frames with a lower classification. Please
            refer to Customer network on page 1-42 for an explanation of Ethernet Frame
            classification.
        •   Sens (dBm): This means ‘Sensitivity’ It is the typical receive signal level which
            produces a Frame Error Rate of 5 x 10-4 using 64 octet frames. This is equivalent to a
            Bit Error Rate of 1 x 10-6 as defined in EN 302 217 Annex F.
        •   ACM-o (dBm): This means ‘ACM threshold out'. It is the typical signal level at which a
            given modulation can no longer be supported. When adaptive modulation is enabled
            and the signal level falls below this level, the modulation with the next lower capacity
            is automatically selected.
        •   ACM-i (dBm): This means 'ACM threshold in'. It is the typical signal level required for
            a given modulation to be automatically selected when adaptive modulation is enabled.

       •   Max tx (dBm): This means ‘Maximum transmit power’, the maximum value to which
           the Maximum Transmit Power parameter may be configured. The PTP 800 will not
           transmit at a level greater than the configured value of Maximum Transmit Power.
           However if ATPC is enabled, the PTP 800 may transmit at a lower power than the
           configured value for Maximum Transmit Power.
       •   Min tx (dBm): This means ‘Minimum transmit power’, the minimum value to which
           the Maximum Transmit Power parameter may be configured. If ATPC is enabled, the
           PTP 800 may transmit at a lower power than the configured value for Minimum
           Transmit Power.

       Wireless performance in the 6 GHz band (IRFU)

        Applies to IRFU deployments only.

       The following tables contain capacity, transmit power and sensitivity data for PTP 800
       links operating in the 6 GHz band. For column definitions, refer to Capacity, transmit
       power and sensitivity on page 4-22.



        The maximum and minimum transmit powers are the powers at the output of an IRFU
        transceiver and not at the waveguide interface. The power at the waveguide interface
        depends on the branching unit configuration, which adds additional loss according to
        Table 114.
        The receive sensitivities are at the input to the IRFU transceiver and not at the
        waveguide interface. The sensitivity at the waveguide interface depends on the branching
        unit configuration, which adds additional loss according to Table 115.

       Wireless performance in the 11 GHz band (IRFU)

        Applies to IRFU deployments only.

       The following tables contain capacity, transmit power and sensitivity data for PTP 800
       links operating in the 11 GHz band. For column definitions, refer to Capacity, transmit
       power and sensitivity on page 4-22.



        The maximum and minimum transmit powers are the powers at the output of an IRFU
        transceiver and not at the waveguide interface. The power at the waveguide interface
        depends on the branching unit configuration, which adds additional loss according to
        Table 133.
        The receive sensitivities are at the input to the IRFU transceiver and not at the
        waveguide interface. The sensitivity at the waveguide interface depends on the branching
        unit configuration, which adds additional loss according to Table 134.

Syslog message formats

       This section describes the format and content of Syslog messages.



Format of syslog server messages
       PTP 800 generates syslog messages in this format:
           SP = “ ” = %x20
           CO = “:” = %x3A
           SC = “;” = %x3B
           LT = “<” = %x3C
           GT = “>” = %x3E
           syslog = pri header SP message
           pri = LT “1”-“182” GT
           header = timestamp SP hostname
           timestamp = month SP days SP hours “:” minutes “:” seconds
           month = “Jan”|“Feb”|“Mar”|“Apr”|“May”|“Jun”|“Jul”|“Aug”|“Sep”|“Oct”|“Nov”|“Dec”
           days = “ 1”-“31”
           hours = “00”-“23”
           minutes = seconds = “00”-“59”
           hostname = “0.0.0.0”-“255.255.255.255”
           message = “PTP800” CO SP (configuration | status | event)
           configuration = “configuration” SC SP attribute-name SC SP (“Web user”|“SNMP user”|“SNTP”)
           SC SP “was=” previous-value SC SP “now=” new-value SC
           status = “status” SC SP attribute-name SC SP “was=” previous-value SC SP “now=” new-value SC
           event = “event” SC SP identifier SC SP event-message-content SC




Configuration and status messages
       Configuration and status messages contain all of the relevant attributes.
       This is an example of a configuration message:
           PTP800: configuration; IP Address; Web user; was=10.10.10.10;
           now=169.254.1.1;

       This is an example of a status message:
           PTP800: status; Data Port Status; was=Down; now=Up;

       Interfaces
       The standard interface MIB for PTP 800 always reports five interfaces as follows:

       Table 201 Identification of interfaces

        ifIndex   ifDescr                            ifType                  ifOperStatus

        2         ethernet data interface            ethernetCsmacd(6)       up | down

        3         ethernet management interface      ethernetCsmacd(6)       up | down

        4         telecom channel A interface        ds1(18)                 notPresent

        5         telecom channel B interface        ds1(18)                 notPresent




        PTP 800 does not support telecom channels. These interfaces are included for
        consistency with other Cambium PTP products.

Radiation hazard assessment

       This section evaluates the radiation levels produced by the PTP 800 products against ETSI
       and FCC standards.



ETSI method
       This section evaluates the radiation levels produced by the PTP 800 products against the
       following standards:
       •   1999/519/EC of 12 July 1999 on the limitation of exposure of the general public to
           electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz).
       •   EN 50385:2002 Product standard to demonstrate the compliances of radio base
           stations and fixed terminal stations for wireless telecommunication systems with the
           basic restrictions or the reference levels related to human exposure to radio frequency
           electromagnetic fields (110 MHz to 40 GHz) — general public.
       •   EN 50383:2002 Basic standard for the calculation and measurement of
           electromagnetic field strength and SAR related to human exposure from radio base
           stations and fixed terminal stations for wireless telecommunication systems (110 MHz
           to 40 GHz).


       Exposure categories
       EN 50385:2002 Clause 3.1 defines the restrictions on exposure to time-varying electric,
       magnetic, and electromagnetic fields that are based directly on established health effects.
       Between 10 GHz and 40 GHz, the physical quantity is the power density.
       1999/519/EC defines the exposure limit (‘Basic Restriction’) to be considered for the
       general public. Annex II and Table 1 define this to be 10 W/m2.


       Antenna directivity
       The Cambium recommended antennas have Hi-Performance polar patterns in accordance
       with ETSI EN302 217-4-1 classes 2 and 3. They have gains in excess of 30 dB and
       beamwidths of less than 5 degrees. Thus, they provide high attenuation of radiated energy
       at the sides and rear of the antenna.

       Calculation
       Calculation is used to identify the Compliance Boundary; outside this boundary the
       radiation levels meet the Basic Restriction, which is defined in 1999/519/EC as 10 W/m2.
       The distance from the antenna at which the Power Flux Density limit is equal to some
       specified value is calculated using the Cylindrical Wave model as follows:
                 P .180
           S=
                 π Ddδ
       Where S = Power density (W/m2), P = Maximum average transmit power capability of the
       radio (Watts), D = Antenna diameter (meters), d = Distance from point source (meters),
       δ = 3 dB antenna beamwidth (degrees).
       Rearranging terms to solve for distance yields:
                 P .180
           d =
                 S π Dδ


       Distances from antenna
       Table 208 specifies calculated minimum separation distances for a range of frequency
       bands and antenna sizes at the peak of the antenna beam. At these and greater distances,
       the power density from the RF field is not considered to be hazardous.

       These separation distances are significantly lower than those calculated by the method
       specified by the FCC. The ETSI method recognises that radiation is distributed across the
       antenna aperture and is not in reality a point source.



FCC method
       Relevant standards (North America and EC) applicable when working with RF equipment
       are:
       •   ANSI IEEE C95.1-1991, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human
           Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
       •   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/ewh-semt/pubs/radiation/99ehd-dhm237/limits-limites_e.html
           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.


       Calculation
       FCC OET Bulletin 65 specifies the far-field method to calculate power density:
                  PG
            S=
                 4π R 2
       Where S = Power density (W/m2), P = Maximum average transmit power capability of the
       radio (Watts), G = Antenna gain, R = Distance from point source (meters).
       FCC Title 47 Part 1.1310 defines the exposure limit for the general population to be 10
       W/m2 (1 mW/cm2) in the frequency range 1500 to 100,000 MHz. This defines an exposure
       time of 30 minutes. Higher levels are permitted for shorter periods of exposure.
       Rearranging terms to solve for distance yields:

       Distances from antenna
       For ODU deployments, Table 209 specifies calculated minimum separation distances for a
       range of frequency bands and antenna sizes at the peak of the antenna beam. For IRFU
       deployments, refer to Table 210. At these and greater distances, the power density from
       the RF field is not considered to be hazardous. These tables are based on the worst case

        and describes how to upgrade an unprotected link to 1+1 Hot Standby.



Safety precautions during installation
        All national and local safety standards must be followed while developing a site, installing
        equipment, or performing maintenance.



            Ensure that personnel are not exposed to unsafe levels of RF energy. The units
            start to radiate as soon as they are powered up. Respect the safety standards
            defined in Radiation hazard assessment on page 4-85, in particular the
            minimum separation distances.

        Observe the following guidelines:
        •     Never work in front of the antenna when the CMU is powered.
        •     Always power down the CMU before connecting or disconnecting the drop cable from
              the CMU, ODU or LPU.



Grounding and lightning protection requirements
        The installation must meet the requirements defined in Grounding and lightning protection
        on page 2-7.



Selecting installation options
        Use the installation report to determine which installation options are required. Refer to
        Link planning on page 2-2.
        When installing a 1+1 Hot Standby link, refer to 1+1 Hot Standby link protection on page
        1-64 for an overview of alternative hardware configurations.

Installing antennas and ODUs                                                   Chapter 5: Installation




        Follow applicable health and safety rules for use of silicone grease. If necessary
        use the latex gloves supplied with the products.



        If upgrading an unprotected link to 1+1 Hot Standby, mute the active unit before
        installing the coupler. For safety reasons this is required when working with the
        ODUs or when working close to the antenna. See Disabling and enabling the
        wireless interface on page 7-32.



        When installing 1+1 Hot Standby links, observe that the ODUs are labeled ‘Hi’ or ‘Lo’
        depending on the frequency sub-band. Ensure that the two ‘Hi’ ODUs are installed at one
        end of the link and the two ‘Lo’ ODUs are installed at the other end.



Installing a direct mount antenna with one ODU
       In the direct mount configuration, the ODU is attached directly to the antenna (with
       Cambium ODU interface) via four latches.
       To install a direct mount antenna with a single ODU, proceed as follows:

         1   Follow the antenna manufacturer’s instructions to attach the antenna to its
             bracket.

         2   Polarization depends upon the antenna waveguide interface position. To change
             polarization, rotate the antenna transition, following the antenna manufacturer’s
             instructions.

Installing a remote mount antenna with one ODU
       In the remote mount configuration, the antenna and ODU are attached to the mast
       separately, connected to each other via a flexible waveguide. The flexible waveguide is
       designed to isolate vibration and eliminate difficulties caused by misalignment.



           The flexible waveguide must be protected from damage that may be caused by
           contamination, vibration or bending.

       When installing a flexible waveguide, observe the following precautions:
       •     Unpacking: To avoid damage to the waveguide, do not unpack it until required. When
             unpacked, protect the waveguide from dirt, dust or ingress of foreign objects.
       •     Vibration: Flexible waveguides may be damaged if subjected to excessive vibration or
             excessive bending. If a flexible waveguide is installed in a stressed (tensile) condition,
             vibration should be kept to a minimum, as the waveguide rubber jacket may become
             more susceptible to ozone and general environmental attack. Always use the
             waveguide hangers; two hangers should be used for the 900mm (3ft) flexible

       •     Bend radius: Conform to the bend radii, maximum twist and torque settings specified
             in Flexible waveguide specifications on page 4-10.
       •     Static bend radius: When installing a flexible waveguide, pay attention to the static
             bend radius (quoted in the waveguide manufacturer’s data sheet). Static bend radius is
             the minimum bend that an assembly may be subject to without repeat movement
             (except as a consequence of small vibrations or axial expansions).



           Before installation, check that the ODU, RMK, waveguide and antenna have compatible
           interfaces.



           For a 2+0 cross-polar remote mount configuration, follow the procedures in this section
           to install two ODUs and waveguides and one dual-polar antenna, but connect both ODUs
           to the antenna via the waveguide ports (Figure 73).

       Attaching antenna and waveguide to pole

        If the antenna is 11 GHz, a tapered transition must be fitted between the antenna and
        waveguide as described in Mounting an 11 GHz antenna with tapered transition and
        waveguide on page 5-18.

       To mount the antenna on the pole and attach it to the ODU via the flexible waveguide,
       proceed as follows:

         1    Follow the antenna manufacturer’s instructions to attach the antenna to its
              bracket and to the mast or pole.

         2    Check that the waveguide, antenna and RMK have compatible interfaces. Check
              that the mating surfaces are clean and free from damage.




         3    Fit one of the ‘O’ ring seals supplied with the waveguide kit to the flexible
              waveguide flange that has the O ring groove.

         4    Using the waveguide flange fitted with the ‘O’ ring, fit the flexible waveguide to
              the remote mount. Ensure that the waveguide cavity orientation matches the
              opening in the RMK. Fit four shorter screws, using a spring washer and a plain
              washer on each screw. It is sometimes more convenient to complete this
              operation before the assembly is fitted to the mast, connecting the flexible
              waveguide to the antenna when fitting the remote mount to the mast.

Installing a direct mount antenna with two ODUs (via coupler)
       In the direct mount configuration, the coupler (with ODUs) is attached directly to the
       antenna (with Cambium ODU interface) via four latches.



        If the coupler is asymmetric, one side is embossed with the word ‘MAIN’ and the other
        side with ‘STANDBY’ (Figure 74). The ‘MAIN’ side has lower loss. Ensure that the ‘MAIN’
        and ‘STANDBY’ sides can still be identified after the ODUs are fitted, as this allows them
        to be connected to the correct CMUs.

Installing a remote mount antenna with two ODUs (via coupler)
       In the remote mount configuration, the antenna and coupler (with two ODUs) are attached
       to the mast separately, connected to each other via a flexible waveguide. The flexible
       waveguide is designed to isolate vibration and eliminate difficulties caused by
       misalignment.



        The flexible waveguide must be protected from damage that may be caused by
        contamination, vibration or bending. Observe the precautions in Installing a remote
        mount antenna with one ODU on page 5-9.



        Before installation, check that the ODUs, coupler, RMK, waveguide and antenna have
        compatible interfaces.



        If the coupler is asymmetric, one side is embossed with the word ‘MAIN’ and the other
        side with ‘STANDBY’ (Figure 74). The ‘MAIN’ side has lower loss. Ensure that the ‘MAIN’

Installing the IF and ground cables


           Applies to ODU deployments only.

       This section describes how to install the IF cables and how to install grounding and
       lightning protection.
       When installing a 1+1 Hot Standby link, install and ground separate IF cables for the
       Primary and Secondary ODUs.
       When installing a 2+0 link, install and ground separate IF cables for the link A and link B
       ODUs.
       This task consists of the following procedures:
       •     Preparing IF cables on page 5-37.
       •     Fitting an N type connector to an IF cable on page 5-37.
       •     Connecting the ODU to the top LPU on page 5-41.
       •     Weatherproofing an N type connector on page 5-44.
       •     Hoisting the main IF cable on page 5-48.
       •     Installing and grounding the main IF cable on page 5-51.
       •     Making an IF cable ground point on page 5-53.
       •     Installing and grounding the IF cable at building entry on page 5-57.




           When installing IF and ground cables, observe the following precautions:

             o   The IF and ground cable installation must meet the requirements defined in
                 Grounding and lightning protection on page 2-7.
             o   To provide effective protection against lightning induced surges, grounding cables
                 must be installed without drip loops and pointing down towards the ground.
             o   To ensure that IF connections are not damaged by water ingress, all outdoor IF
                 connectors must be protected from the weather with self-amalgamating and vinyl
                 tape.
             o   Do not connect or disconnect the IF cable when the power supply is applied to the
                 CMU.
             o   Always ensure the lightning protection units are connected the correct way round
                 (Figure 75).

Preparing IF cables
       Prepare the following lengths of IF cable:
       •       ‘ODU-LPU’ IF cable: Use the braided cable assembly supplied in the coaxial cable
               installation assembly kit (Table 55), as this is pre-fitted with N type connectors. If this
               is not suitable, cut a short section of IF cable and fit N type connectors to both ends as
               described in Fitting an N type connector to an IF cable on page 5-37.
       •       ‘Main’ IF cable: Prepare a long section of IF cable to connect the top LPU to the
               bottom LPU:
               o   Cut this to the approximate length required (allowing a bit of surplus), or leave it on
                   the drum so that it can be unwound as the cable is hoisted.
               o   Slide one or more hoisting grips onto the top end of the main IF cable, as described
                   in Hoisting the main IF cable on page 5-48.
               o   Fit an N type connector to the top end only, as described in Fitting an N type
                   connector to an IF cable on page 5-37.
       •       ‘LPU-CMU’ IF cable: Prepare a short section of IF cable to connect the bottom LPU to
               the CMU:
               o   Cut this to the approximate length required (allowing a bit of surplus).
               o   Fit an N type connector to the LPU end only, as described in Fitting an N type
                   connector to an IF cable on page 5-37.



Fitting an N type connector to an IF cable
       The crimp tool for the standard N type connector is available from Cambium, see Table 14.
       Not all connectors and crimp tools are compatible. If any other type of connector is to be
       installed, ensure that the correct crimp tool is used.


       Preparing a cable end
       To prepare an IF cable to receive an N type connector, proceed as follows:

           1       Check that the correct IF cable crimp tool and connectors are available.

         8    Protect the N type connectors at the ODU and LPU from the weather by
              applying self-amalgamating and PVC tape, as described in Weatherproofing an N
              type connector on page 5-44.




Weatherproofing an N type connector
       The following procedure should be used to weatherproof the N type connectors fitted to
       the ODU and LPU.
       Before weatherproofing the connectors, ensure that the installation has been tested as
       described in Testing the ODU and IF cable on page 5-59. These tests require connection
       and disconnection of the IF cables at various places.



         N type connectors should be tightened using a torque wrench, set to 15 lb in or 1.7 Nm.
         If a torque wrench is not available, N type connectors may be finger tightened.

       To weatherproof an N type connector, proceed as follows:

         1    Ensure the connection is tight. A torque wrench should be used if available:




         2    Wrap the connection with a layer of 19 mm (0.75 inch) PVC tape, starting 25 mm
              (1 inch) below the connector body. Overlap the tape to half-width and extend the
              wrapping to the body of the LPU. Avoid making creases or wrinkles:

         3   Smooth tape edges:




         4   Cut a 125mm (5 inches) length of rubber tape (self amalgamating):




         5   Expand the width of the tape by stretching it so that it will wrap completely
             around the connector and cable:

         6    Press the tape edges together so that there are no gaps. The tape should extend
              25mm (1inch) beyond the PVC tape:




         7    Wrap a layer of 50 mm (2 inch) PVC tape from bottom to top, starting from
              25 mm (1 inch) below the edge of the self-amalgamating tape, overlapping at
              half width.

         8   Repeat with a further four layers of 19 mm (0.75 inch) PVC tape, always
             overlapping at half width. Wrap the layers in alternate directions:
                  Second layer: top to bottom.
                  Third layer: bottom to top.
                  Fourth layer: top to bottom.
                  Fifth layer: bottom to top.
             The bottom edge of each layer should be 25 mm (1 inch) below the previous
             layer.

Hoisting the main IF cable
       Hoisting grips are designed for hoisting cable safely up a tower or building and providing
       permanent support so that mechanical connection to an antenna can be made. A clamp is
       placed over the grip and secured to the cable with a special tool. When the cable is in
       position and the grip handle is fastened to a tower member, the hoist line can be removed.
       A suitable hoisting grip for CNT-400 IF cable is Cambium part number 07009304001 used
       together with the correct crimp tool SG-IT (Andrew part number 243333).



           Failure to obey the following precautions may result in injury or death.

       Observe the following precautions:
       •     Use the hoisting grip to hoist one cable only. Attempting to hoist more than one cable
             may cause the hoisting grip to break or the cables to fall.
       •     Do not use the hoisting grip for lowering cable unless the clamp is securely in place.
       •     Do not reuse hoisting grips. Used grips may have lost elasticity, stretched, or become
             weakened. Reusing a grip can cause the cable to slip, break, or fall.
       •     Use hoisting grips at intervals of no more than 60 m (200 ft).
       •     Use the proper hoisting grip for the cable being installed. If the wrong hoisting grip is
             used, slippage or insufficient gripping strength will result.


       Attaching the hoisting grip

           Attach one or more hoisting grips to the main IF cable before fitting the N type connector
           to the top end (as described in Preparing IF cables on page 5-37). Attach one additional
           hoisting grip for each 60 m (200 ft) of cable.




5-48                                                                     phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

       To attach a hoisting grip to the main IF cable, proceed as follows:

         1    Compress the grip ends towards each other and slide the grip heel (woven end)
              onto the cable (see photo). Place the hoisting grip(s) at the proper location on the
              cable before attaching the connector. Allow a sufficient length of cable leader to
              reach the antenna connector when cable hoisting and attachment of the grip
              handle is completed. Hold the heel with one hand and firmly slide the other hand
              along the grip to tighten it.




         2    Slide the clamp onto the grip and position it 25 mm (1”) from the heel.




         3    Crimp the clamp with Andrew crimping tool 243333 at each hoisting grip clamp
              location.

       Using the hoist line

         Maintain tension on the hoisting grip during hoisting. Loss of tension can cause
         dangerous movement of the cable and result in injury or death to personnel on or
         near the tower. Also, do not release tension on the grip until after the cable has
         been fastened to the tower members.

       Attach the hoist line to the grip (Figure 77). Tie the cable leader to the hoist line so that
       the leader does not dangle. Apply tension slowly to the hoist line, allowing the hoisting
       grip to tighten uniformly on the cable. Hoist the main IF cable up to the ODU.

       To install and ground the main IF cable, proceed as follows:

         1    Attach the N type connector at the top end of the main IF cable to the SURGE
              port of the top LPU.




         2    Protect the N type connectors on the LPU from the weather by applying self-
              amalgamating and PVC tape, as described in Weatherproofing an N type
              connector on page 5-44.

         3    Lay the main IF cable as far as the building entry point, ensuring there is enough
              length to extend through the wall of the building to the bottom LPU.

         4    Attach the main IF cable to the supporting structure using the cable ties
              provided.

         5    Ground the IF cable at the points specified in Protection requirements for a mast
              or tower installation on page 2-11.

              Follow the procedure Making an IF cable ground point on page 5-53.

Making an IF cable ground point
       Perform this task to connect the screen of the IF cable to the metal of the supporting
       structure using a cable grounding kit.

       The cable grounding kit for 1/4” and 3/8” cable (Figure 27) contains the following
       components:
       •       1 x grounding cable with grounding 2 hole lug fitted (M10)
       •       1 x self Amalgamating tape
       •       1 x PVC tape
       •       3 x tie wraps
       •       2 x bolt, washer and nut



           Ground cables must be installed without drip loops and pointing down towards the
           ground, otherwise they may not be effective.

       To ground the IF cable to a metal structure using the Cambium grounding kit (part
       number 01010419001), proceed as follows:

           1     Remove 60 mm (2.5 inches) of the IF cable outer jacket:




phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                        5-53
Installing the IF and ground cables                                          Chapter 5: Installation



         2    Cut 38 mm (1.5 inches) of rubber tape (self amalgamating) and fit to the ground
              cable lug. Wrap the tape completely around the lug and cable:




         3    Fold the ground wire strap around the drop cable screen and fit cable ties.




         4    Tighten the cable ties with pliers.




              Cut the surplus from the cable ties.

         5    Cut a 38 mm (1.5 inches) section of self-amalgamating tape and fit to the ground
              cable lug. Wrap the self-amalgamating tape completely around the lug and
              cable.




         6    Use the remainder of the self-amalgamating tape to wrap the complete
              assembly. Press the tape edges together so that there are no gaps:




phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                     5-55

         7    Wrap a layer of PVC tape from bottom to top, starting from 25 mm (1 inch)
              below and finishing 25 mm (1 inch) above the edge of the self-amalgamating
              tape, over lapping at half width.




         8    Repeat with a further four layers of PVC tape, always overlapping at half width.
              Wrap the layers in alternate directions:
                    Second layer: top to bottom.
                    Third layer: bottom to top.

                    Fourth layer: top to bottom.
                    Fifth layer: bottom to top.
              The edges of each layer should be 25mm (1 inch) above (A) and 25 mm (1 inch)
              below (B) the previous layer.




         9    Prepare the metal grounding point of the supporting structure to provide a good
              electrical contact with the grounding cable clamp. Remove paint, grease or dirt,
              if present. Apply anti-oxidant compound liberally between the two metals.




5-56                                                                 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
PTP 800 Series User Guide                                         Installing the IF and ground cables



        10    Clamp the bottom lug of the grounding cable to the supporting structure using
              site approved methods.



                Use a two-hole lug secured with fasteners in both holes. This provides better
                protection than a single-hole lug.




Installing and grounding the IF cable at building entry
       Perform this procedure to install and ground the IF at the building (or cabinet) entry point
       (Figure 79).

       To run the IF cable into the building, proceed as follows:

         1    Make an entry point into the building and run the main IF cable into the
              building.

         2    Ground the IF cable to the external ground bar outside the building entry point,
              as described in Making an IF cable ground point on page 5-53.

         3    Install the bottom LPU inside the building entry point.

         4    Ground the bottom LPU to the master ground bar.

         5    Cut any surplus length from the bottom end of the main IF cable and fit an N
              type connector, as described in Fitting an N type connector to an IF cable on
              page 5-37.

         6    Connect the main IF cable (from the ODU) to the SURGE port of the bottom LPU.

         7    Connect the LPU-CMU IF cable to the EQUIPMENT port of the bottom LPU and
              run it to the location of the CMU.

Testing the ODU and IF cable


           Applies to ODU deployments only.

       This section describes how to perform pre-power tests on the ODU, LPUs and the IF cable.



Recommended pre-power tests
       Following the installation of the ODU, LPUs and the IF cable, but before connecting and
       applying power to the CMU, the following tests are recommended:
       •     Cable loss with ODU disconnected:
             This test will ensure that the total cable loss, including loss from the LPUs, is within
             acceptable limits.
       •     Cable loss with the ODU connected:
             This test will confirm that the cable contains no short circuit or open circuit.
       •     Distance to fault (DTF) return loss with the ODU connected: This test confirms the
             position of the LPUs in the cable run and confirms there are no other points of
             discontinuity in the cable. By comparing a current plot to a previously recorded plot, it
             is possible to detect any degradation over time.



Test equipment
       An RF cable analyzer such as an Anritsu ‘Site Master’ can be used to confirm that the
       installed cable between the ODU and the CMU has the correct loss and does not have any
       short or open circuits. If the cable is faulty, this equipment can be used to identify the
       location of a fault in the cable.
       Figure 80 is an example of a cable analyzer that is suitable for performing the tests
       described in this section.




phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                        5-59

       Figure 80 Example of a cable analyzer




Test preparation
       Figure 81 is an example to show how the equipment should be set up to perform the pre-
       power tests. In this example, there is a short length of cable from the analyzer (in place of
       the CMU) to the first LPU, a length of cable ‘y’ from the first LPU to the second LPU (at
       the top of the tower) and a short length of cable from the second LPU to the ODU (0.7m
       long supplied in the accessory kit).

       Figure 81 Example of the cable test




        These tests should be performed in conjunction with the test equipment manufacturer’s
        instructions.




5-60                                                                  phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

       To prepare for pre-power testing, proceed as follows:

           1     Connect the analyzer to the first LPU (Figure 81).

           2     Connect the first LPU to the second (Figure 81).

           3     Check that the second LPU is disconnected from the cable that leads to the ODU
                 (Figure 81). The second LPU and ODU are reconnected during testing.

           4     Power on the analyzer.
       When these preparations are complete, perform the following tests:
       •       Testing cable loss on page 5-61.
       •       Measuring distance to fault on page 5-66.



Testing cable loss
       The purpose of this test is to ensure that the total cable loss is within acceptable limits.
       Before performing this test, ensure that the test equipment is set up as described in Test
       preparation on page 5-60.

       To measure cable loss, proceed as follows:

           1     Select the ‘cable loss-one port’ mode of the cable analyzer (Figure 80).

           2     Set the frequency of measurement to:
                 F1 = 350MHz
                 F2 = 400MHz.

           3     Calibrate the instrument for the selected frequencies, using the correct
                 calibration kit.

           4     Before connecting the ODU, obtain a plot of cable loss and check that it is within
                 the expected limits for the given cable length (Table 213). Compare it to
                 examples of good installations (Figure 82 and Figure 84).

           5     Connect the ODU.

           6     Observe the effect of the ODU connection on the plot of cable loss.
                 Compare it to examples of good installations (Figure 83 and Figure 85).
                 If there is little or no change to the plot when the ODU is connected, it indicates
                 a short or open circuit on the cable.

           7     Keep a copy of the cable loss plots so that they can be compared with
                 subsequent plots to determine if there is any degradation with time.

       Cable loss example using a 17 meter cable
       This example is for a cable run consisting of the following:
       •   0.7m cable from the test equipment to the first LPU.
       •   The first LPU.
       •   17m of cable between the two LPUs (length ‘y’ in Figure 81).
       •   The second (mast mounted) LPU.
       •   0.7m of cable from the LPU to ODU.
       When performing steps 4 to 6 above, compare the ‘before’ and ‘after’ plots of cable loss:
       •   Figure 82 is a plot of cable loss taken before the ODU was connected. The plot shows
           an average cable loss of 1.96 dB. This can be compared with the expected result in
           Table 213. For a cable length of approximately 19m (17m + 0.7m + 0.7m) with two
           LPUs, the table result is 1.9 dB, which is within the expected tolerance of +/- 10%.
       •   Figure 83 is a plot of cable loss taken after the ODU was connected.

       Expected cable loss
       Table 213 quotes the expected cable loss for given cable lengths when the ODU is not
       connected. All loss figures have a tolerance of plus or minus 10%, for example, 1.76 dB
       means that the loss is expected to be between 1.58 and 1.94 dB.

Measuring distance to fault
       The distance to fault (DTF) test is used as a means of characterizing the cable installation,
       but can also be used to determine the location of a fault in an installation.
       Before performing this test, ensure that the test equipment is set up as described in Test
       preparation on page 5-60.

       To measure distance to fault, proceed as follows:

         1    Select the ‘DTF-return loss’ mode of the cable analyzer (Figure 80).

         2    Select ‘DTF Aid’.

         3    Use the up/down key to select and set the following:
              Cable type - select LMR400 (similar to CNT-400) or LMR600 (similar to
              CNT-600) as appropriate.
              F2 - select the highest frequency possible for the greatest resolution, 1600 MHz.
              D1 and D2 - set as appropriate for the specific installation.

         4    Recalibrate the instrument.

         5    Before connecting the ODU, obtain a plot of DTF loss. Compare it to an example
              of a good installation (Figure 86).

         6    Connect the ODU.

         7    Observe the effect of the ODU connection on the DTF plot. Compare it to an
              example of a good installation (Figure 87).

         8    Keep a copy of the DTF plots so that they can be compared with subsequent
              plots to determine if there is any degradation with time.




        The absolute readings of DTF should be read with care, as many different variables affect
        both distance and amplitude accuracy.

       DTF return loss example
       This example shows typical DTF return loss in a good installation. The distances from the
       test equipment to first LPU (marker M2), and then the second LPU (marker M3) are
       clearly shown. The cable between them shows no discontinuity. There are two plots:
       •     Figure 86 is a plot of DTF return loss before the ODU is connected. The final peak
             (marker M1) is the position of the cable open circuit.
       •     Figure 87 is a plot of DTF return loss after the ODU is connected. The final peak
             remains in the same position but is now reduced in amplitude because less signal is
             reflected, as a consequence of the better match of the ODU.

Installing antennas and IRFUs


           Applies to IRFU deployments only.

       This section describes how to install an IRFU with antenna and waveguide.



           Install the antenna and flexible waveguide by following their manufacturers’ instructions.
           The waveguide must be long enough to connect to the IRFU branching unit in its rack.



Preparation
       Before installing the IRFU, ensure the following are provided:
       •     IF cable for CMU and IRFU (Cambium part number 30009403001).
       •     A -48 V dc power source.
       •     Access to the building ground terminal.
       •     All required tools (Table 214).

Installing the IRFU in the rack

        Allocate a free space of at least 0.4 RMS (18 mm or 0.7 in) between the bottom of the
        IRFU bracket and the top of the CMU and, 1.3 RMS (58 mm or 2.3 in) between two IRFU
        shelves.



        Mounting brackets can be assembled for either ETSI or NEBS (ANSI) rack-mounting.



        To minimize risk of injury, use two persons to place a fully assembled IRFU
        (weighing approximately 12 kg) in the rack.

       Install the shelf mounting lugs (2) using the machine screws provided. Leave these lugs in
       place for holding the IRFU during installation. Starting with the two top screws, secure the
       six mounting bracket screws to the rack (Figure 88).

Connecting the flexible waveguide to the IRFU
       To connect the flexible waveguide from the antenna to the IRFU branching unit (BU),
       proceed as follows:

         1   Remove the protection cap from the BU mating flange (Figure 89).

         2   Connect the flanged end of the flexible waveguide to its mating flange on the BU,
             using the eight socket-head screws provided. Refer to Table 215 for the
             waveguide and flange specifications.

         3   Install the correct flange gasket according to the type of waveguide mating
             flange (not supplied).

         4   Check that the waveguide has been installed according to manufacturer’s
             instructions, with sealed ends and a pressure window.

         5   Pressurize the waveguide with dry air (using an appropriate dehydrator)
             according to manufacturer’s instructions.

        Safety requirements for grounding:
        It is very important that the path of lowest resistance goes directly to the main ground
        point.
        The ground conductor resistance needs to be less than 0.5 Ohm.
        Do not connect other equipment to the same grounding cable as the IRFU. Each piece of
        equipment at the site should have a separate grounding cable to a common very low
        resistance main ground point.
        Connect the equipment directly to the DC supply system grounding electrode conductor
        or to a bonding jumper from a grounding terminal bar, or bus to which the DC supply
        grounding electrode is connected.



        Provide fusing according to Local and National Electrical Codes. Fuse rating must be: 4 A
        for -48 V operation.

Connecting power to the IRFU
       Connect the power supply cable to the IRFU (Figure 93). Check that the power connector
       screws are tight enough to hold the power cable securely in place.



        For EMI Class B compliance, a 10 AWG braided shielded power cable with drain wire and
        foil is recommended.

       If a battery is being used to supply power, connect the ‘common’ battery terminal to the
       main electrical grounding system (not directly to the building grounding system).

Installing the CMU                                                          Chapter 5: Installation




Installing the CMU

       This section describes how to mount the CMU in the building or cabinet, and to connect it
       to ground, power supply and PC.

       When installing a 1+1 Hot Standby link, install two CMUs at each end, one for the Primary
       and one for the Secondary unit.
       When installing a 2+0 link, install two CMUs at each end, one for the link ‘A’ and one for
       the link ‘B’ ODU.



         To minimise radiated emissions, use screened Ethernet cable for all copper connections
         from the CMU Ethernet ports. This includes the Data port connection to any network
         switch and the Management port to the splitter WB3807 (if fitted) and onwards to any
         network switch.



Maximum operating ambient temperature for the CMU

         HOT SURFACES: care should be taken when handling an operating CMU.

       The CMU must be mounted on either a horizontal or vertical surface. The supplied
       mounting bracket must be used. The CMU must not be operated in ambient temperatures
       exceeding 40 deg C unless mounted in a Restricted Access Location.
       At ambient temperatures over this limit, the temperature of the external metal case parts
       of the CMU may exceed a touch temperature of 70 deg C. Heat warning labels are fixed
       adjacent to the hottest parts, on the top of the unit adjacent to the rear face and to
       the front panel mounted N type connector.



Operation of CMU in a Restricted Access Location
       The CMU may be operated in ambient temperatures up to 55°C when it is housed in a
       Restricted Access Location. Under these conditions the temperature of the external metal
       case parts of the CMU may exceed a touch temperature of 70°C, but will be less than
       90°C.
       A Restricted Access Location is defined (in EN 90650-1) as one where access may only be
       gained by use of a tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and access is
       controlled by the authority responsible for the location.




5-76                                                                 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
PTP 800 Series User Guide                                                         Installing the CMU



       Examples of permissible Restricted Access Locations are:-
       •     A lockable equipment room.
       •     A lockable cabinet.
       Access must only be gained by persons who have been instructed about the reasons for the
       restrictions applied to the location and about any precautions that must be taken.



Mounting the CMU
       The CMU can be mounted in three ways:
       •     On a shelf or bench top.
       •     On a wall.
       •     In a cabinet rack.

       The CMU kit contains the CMU, CMU bracket, power connector and ground lug (Figure
       94).

       Figure 94 CMU kit contents




           To prevent the CMU from overheating, ensure that the ventilation holes on the side of the
           CMU are not obstructed and that there is room for air flow across the back of the CMU
           (the end opposite the connector face).


       Shelf or bench top mounting
       If the CMU is installed on a shelf or bench top (Figure 95), the CMU bracket must be used
       to secure the CMU. The bracket screws to the base of the CMU.




phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                    5-77

       Figure 95 CMU mounted on bench




       Wall mounting
       The CMU bracket also acts as a wall mounting bracket (Figure 96). The bracket may be
       placed against the wall to allow fixing holes to be made. The bracket should then be
       secured to the CMU using the screws supplied, before offering the assembly up to the wall
       for fixing.



         In order to comply with safety certification, mount the CMU with the connectors
         facing upwards or downwards; do not mount the CMU with the connectors facing
         sideways.

       Figure 96 CMU mounted with bracket




       Rack mounting
       A rack mounting kit allows one or two CMUs to be installed in a 19 inch cabinet rack
       (Figure 97 and Figure 98). The kit contains a blanking plate and CMU securing screws.

5-78                                                               phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

       Figure 98 CMU mounted in rack




        To avoid damaging the RF cable, route it in such a way that the minimum bend radius for
        the selected cable is always exceeded.

        If cables are laid in an air-handling cavity, they must be Plenum rated.



        A right angle IF cable connector (Cambium part number 01010589001) can make it
        easier to install the CMU in the rack (Figure 99).

Grounding the CMU
       Ground the CMU to a rack ground bar, master ground bar or other suitable ground using a
       minimum cable cross section of 10 mm2 (6AWG) (Figure 43). It is a condition of the safety
       approval that the unit is grounded.



         For a 1+1 Hot Standby link, ground both CMUs to the same grounding point (Figure 44).

       Attach the ground cable to the CMU ground connector (Figure 100).

       Figure 100 CMU ground connector




Connecting the CMU to the IF cable

       ODU-based deployments
       Cut any surplus length from the CMU end of the ODU-CMU IF cable and fit an N type
       connector, as described in Fitting an N type connector to an IF cable on page 5-37.
       Connect this IF cable to the CMU.
       For 1+1 and 2+0 links, repeat for the second ODU and CMU.



         For an ODU-based 1+1 Hot Standby link with an asymmetric coupler, ensure that the
         following connections are made:
         The IF cable from the ‘MAIN’ side of the ODU coupler is connected to the CMU labelled
         ‘Primary’.
         The IF cable from the ‘STANDBY’ side of the ODU coupler is connected to the CMU
         labelled ‘Secondary’.

       IRFU-based deployments
       Connect the supplied IF cable (Cambium part number 30009403001) to the CMU.
       For 1+1 and 2+0 links, repeat for the second transceiver unit and CMU.



        For an IRFU-based 1+1 Hot Standby link with the unequal coupling option, ensure that
        the following connections are made:
        The IF cable from the primary (left hand) transceiver is connected to the CMU labelled
        ‘Primary’.
        The IF cable from the secondary (right hand) transceiver is connected to the CMU
        labelled ‘Secondary’.




Connecting the CMU power supply
       Connect the CMU to a minus 48 Volt (−48V) supply capable of supplying a maximum of 2
       amps.

       The Cambium supplied AC to DC converter is shown in Figure 101. For specifications of
       the converter, mains cables and DC connectors, refer to AC to DC converter specifications
       on page 4-4.

       For details of alternative power supply arrangements, refer to Power supply considerations
       on page 2-4. If an alternative power supply is to be installed, it must include the following
       safeguards:
       •   The DC supply must have over current protection that does not exceed 3 amps
       •   A means of isolating the CMU from the DC supply must also be provided.
       If a DC connector has to be attached to the DC output cable, use the following pin
       connections:
       •   Pin 1: −48 Volts
       •   Pin 2: 0 Volts
       •   Pin 3: Not Connected
       •   Pin 4: Chassis ground

       Pin 1 is the left most pin on the CMU power connector when looking at the front panel.

       Remove the transceiver
       To remove the old transceiver, proceed as follows:

         1   Power off the CMU.

         2   Push the PWR button OFF for at least 3 seconds, until the PWR LED is Off.



               This ensures that there are no sparks at the DC power connectors when
               removing DC from the transceiver. This will also indicate to the IRFU
               controller that, after installing the new transceiver, the PWR button has to be
               pushed ON again. Otherwise, power will automatically turn on when DC
               power is reconnected to the newly installed transmitter, regardless of the
               user’s intentions.

         3   Disconnect both the power cable and IF cable from their respective connectors on
             the IRFU.

        Remove the RF cable
        To remove an RF cable, proceed as follows:

          1   Note the Part Number printed on the label of the cable before removal, referring
              to Table 218 as an example.

          2   Using the Standard torque wrench or SMA torque wrench w/right-angle adaptor,
              unscrew each connector’s end nut for about three 1/4 turns, enough to reduce
              resistance, then continue by hand until free.


        Install the new RF cable
        To install an RF cable, proceed as follows:

          1   Before installing the replacement RF cable, verify that its Part Number matches
              exactly that of the discarded cable.

          2   Fastening each cable-end nut by hand, start with the angled connector, then
              follow by the straight one, as identified in Table 218.

          3   Space permitting, use the Standard torque wrench set to 0.1 kg•m (9.0 lb-inch) to
              tighten each connector nut. Otherwise, use the SMA torque wrench w/right-angle
              adaptor to tighten the SMA connectors.

          4   As an alternative, first hand-tighten the RF cable connector nuts to the transceiver
              ports – referring to the applicable configuration from IRFU configuration options
              on page 1-20 – slide the transceiver in the shelf, then fasten its Captive screws (2)
              to secure it in place.

          5   As appropriate, use the Standard torque wrench or the SMA torque wrench
              w/right-angle adaptor, set to 0.1 kg•m (9.0 lb-inch), to tighten all RF cable
              connector nuts.

Preparing for configuration and alignment

       This section describes the checks to be performed before proceeding with unit
       configuration and antenna alignment.



Safety precautions during configuration and alignment
       All national and local safety standards must be followed while configuring the units and
       aligning the antennas.



         Ensure that personnel are not exposed to unsafe levels of RF energy. The units
         start to radiate as soon as they are powered up. Respect the safety standards
         defined in Radiation hazard assessment on page 4-85, in particular the
         minimum separation distances.

       Observe the following guidelines:
           o   Never work in front of the antenna when the CMU is powered.
           o   Always power down the CMU before connecting or disconnecting the drop cable
               from the CMU, RFU or LPU.



Regulatory compliance during configuration and alignment
       All applicable radio regulations must be followed while configuring the units and aligning
       the antennas. For more information, refer to Electromagnetic compliance on page 4-81.



         USA only: if the system designer has provided a list of channels to be barred for TDWR
         radar avoidance, the affected channels must be barred during staging, before the units
         are allowed to radiate on site, otherwise FCC rules will be infringed.



Selecting configuration options
       Use the installation report to determine which configuration options are required. Refer to
       Link planning on page 2-2.

Task 1: Connecting to the unit

       This task consists of the following procedures:
       •   Configuring the management PC on page 6-3
       •   Updating the ARP table on page 6-5
       •   Connecting to the PC and powering up on page 6-6
       •   Logging into the web interface on page 6-6



Configuring the management PC
       To configure the local management PC to communicate with the PTP 800, proceed as
       follows:

           1   Display the Local Area Connection Properties dialog.
               The path to this dialog depends on Windows version and PC configuration, for
               example select: Control Panel, Network Connections, Local Area
               Connection, Properties.

          2    Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click on Properties. The Internet
               Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog is displayed:




          3    Enter an IP address that is valid for the 169.254.X.X network, avoiding:
                    169.254.0.0 and 169.254.1.1
               A good example is 169.254.1.3 as shown.

          4    Enter a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.

               Leave the default gateway blank.

          5    Click on OK.




6-4                                                                   phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
PTP 800 Series User Guide                                            Task 1: Connecting to the unit



         6     If the network adaptor supports advanced properties then ensure that Ethernet
               Speed and Duplex are both configured for automatic negotiation. One example,
               based on a Broadcom™ adaptor, is shown:




Updating the ARP table
       All PTP 800 units are supplied with the same default IP address. When the management
       PC is connected to a PTP 800 unit, it creates an association between the default IP address
       (169.254.1.1) and the MAC address of the PTP 800. If two or more PTP 800 units are being
       configured, this association must be removed after each unit has been configured.

       To remove the association between IP address and MAC address in the ARP table of the
       management PC: open a command prompt window on the PC and enter this command:
             arp –d 169.254.1.1

       When this address is next used, the PC will connect it with the MAC address of the unit
       being configured and update the ARP table with the new association.

       status indicator shows green steady or green slow blink. This normally occurs within 60
       seconds from applying power.



Logging into the web interface

         If the management PC is connected to another LAN it may need to be configured to not
         use proxy servers for this IP address.

       To log into the CMU web interface, proceed as follows:

         1   Start the web browser from the management PC.

         2   Type this IP address of the unit into the address bar: 169.254.1.1

         3   Press ENTER. The web interface menu and System Summary page are displayed:

       •   Reconnecting to the management PC on page 6-17




Managing the units during configuration and alignment
       Choose the best way to manage the PTP 800 units during the configuration and alignment
       process.


       Out-of-band management
       Where out-of-band management is chosen, the management port is active and a PC can be
       locally connected. Once the wireless link is operational, the remote PTP 800 unit may also
       be accessed across the wireless link.
       In a 1+1 Hot Standby link with out-of-band management, the commissioning engineer can
       connect to both PTP 800s in the following ways:
       •   Locally from the Ethernet port of the protection splitter
       •   From a PC connected to a local switch where routing and connectivity exist for
           accessing the Ethernet port of the protection splitter.
       •   Before the protection splitter is installed, locally from the management port.

       In-band management
       Where in-band management is chosen, the choice of scheme depends on the available data
       network and the method of network connectivity.
       With in-band management, there is a risk that a configuration error could lead to loss of
       management connectivity. If connectivity is lost, recover the units to a known working
       saved configuration, as described in Using recovery mode on page 7-71.
       In a 1+1 Hot Standby link with in-band management, the commissioning engineer can
       connect to both PTP 800s in the following ways:
       •   On the bench, via a local router: Configure and test the final data port configuration
           “on the bench”. Access for commissioning will be available from a port on a locally
           connected switch or router. This has the advantage that simultaneous access is
           possible to both the CMUs being installed.
       •   On the bench, via the management network: As above, but with a connection to a
           management centre (not across the wireless link being installed) where a co-worker is
           able to configure and control the PTP 800 units.
       •   Using out-of-band: Install the CMUs using out-of-band management and configure in-
           band management on site. However, a protection splitter is required and the
           management setup needs to be reconfigured. Errors could cause loss of the
           management connection.
       •   Using a local PC: Use in-band management and connect a PC locally to the copper
           data port. This is possible if VLAN tagging is disabled. Some reconfiguration may be
           needed, but if the data network is not fully commissioned this could be an alternative.
           It is recommended that in the final configuration VLAN tagging is enabled.

Task 2: Configuring IP and Ethernet interfaces                Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment




Configuring the IP interface and management mode
       The IP interface allows users to connect to the PTP 800 web interface, either from a locally
       connected computer or from a management network.



         Before setting Management Mode to ‘Out-of-Band’ or ‘In-Band’, ensure that the local and
         remote CMUs are configured with different IP addresses, otherwise the management
         agent will not be able to distinguish the two CMUs.
         Similarly for a 1+1 Hot Standby link, all four CMUs must be configured with different IP
         addresses so that the active and inactive units may be distinguished as well as the local
         and remote CMUs.



         Forcing Ethernet configuration is a last resort that should only be selected if problems
         are experienced with auto-negotiation.
         The Ethernet Auto Negotiation and Auto Neg Advertisement attributes must have the
         same settings in the CMU and in connected network equipment. If they are not
         consistent, then a duplex mismatch will occur, resulting in greatly reduced data capacity.
         The Auto Neg Advertisement data rate must be within the capability of the connected
         network equipment, otherwise loss of service will occur.
         To configure the Ethernet link to run at a fixed speed and duplex, leave Ethernet Auto
         Negotiation set to ‘Enabled’ and set Auto Neg Advertisement to the required speed.

       To configure the IP interface, proceed as follows:

         1    Select menu option System, Configuration, LAN Configuration. The LAN
              Configuration page is displayed (Figure 116).

         2    Review and update the IP interface attributes (Table 219).

         3    If Management Mode has been set to ‘Out-of-Band Local’ or ‘Out-of-Band’,
              review and update the management port attributes (Table 220).

         4    Review and update the data port attributes (Table 221).

         5    Review and update the bridging attributes (Table 222).

         6    Select Submit Updated System Configuration. The Confirm LAN configuration
              page is displayed (Figure 117).

         7    Select Confirm Changes.

                              mode. For more information, see Out-of-band local
                              management on page 1-44.
                              ‘Out-of-Band’ means that the web interface can be reached
                              from the management port at both the local and remote CMUs
                              (assuming that the wireless link is established). For a 1+1 Hot
                              Standby link, configuration access to the remote inactive unit
                              requires connectivity between the management ports. For
                              more information, see Out-of-band management on page 1-44.
                              If ‘Out-of-Band’ is selected, remember to set the Management
                              Committed Information Rate (Table 222).
                              ‘In-Band’ means that the web interface can be reached from
                              the data port at both the local and remote CMUs (assuming
                              that the wireless link is established). In this mode, the
                              management port is disabled. For a 1+1 Hot Standby link,
                              connectivity must be provided between the CMU data ports by
                              the customer’s network. For more information, see In-band
                              management on page 1-45.
                              For in-band and out-of-band remote management after
                              installation, all four units providing a 1+1 Hot Standby link
                              are accessible from the user interface of each unit.

Task 3: Installing license keys

        This task consists of the following procedures:
        •     Checking licensed capabilities on page 6-18
        •     Generating a new license key on page 6-20
        •     Entering a new license key on page 6-20
        •     Starting the full capacity trial on page 6-21

        Some PTP 800 products are supplied with two license keys: one installed at the factory and
        one alternative key.



            A license key is not required in order to enable the 1+1 protection capability. Each of the
            PTP 800s in the protection scheme is individually licensed and configured with its own
            license key for the capacity of the link.



Checking licensed capabilities
        To check that the installed license key meets the requirements, select menu option
        System, License Key. The Software License Key page is displayed (Figure 118). Check
        the attributes in the Capability summary section (Table 223).



            These attributes (other than MAC Address) must be the same at both link ends, otherwise
            the link will not operate correctly.

        If the current capabilities do not meet the operator’s requirements, then perform
        Generating a new license key on page 6-20.

Generating a new license key
        To generate a new license key to activate new licensed capabilities (for example activate
        AES encryption or increase transmit capacity), proceed as follows:

          1    Purchase the required new capabilities from the Cambium authorized Point-To-
               Point dealer who supplied the link. The dealer will supply one or more access keys.

          2    Go to the PTP web support page (see Contacting Cambium Networks on page 2).

          3    Select Key Generator. The PTP License Key Generator form should be displayed.

          4    Enter the required details, including the access keys supplied by the dealer.

          5    Submit the web form. The PTP License Key Generator will respond with the new
               license key.



Entering a new license key
        To upgrade the unit to a new license key, select menu option System, License Key. The
        Software License Key page is displayed (Figure 118). Enter the new License Key and select
        Validate license key. If the license key is valid, a confirmation message is displayed.

Starting the full capacity trial
       The full capacity trial period allows a unit that has a limited data throughput capacity (up
       to 300 Mbps) to operate with full transmit capacity (unlimited) during a trial period of
       duration 60 days, reverting to the limited capacity when the trial period expires.
       The full capacity trial period is available on:
       •     Newly purchased PTP 800 units.
       •     Existing PTP 800 units that are upgraded to System Release 800-04-00 or a later
             release.
       If a full capacity trial is pending on this unit, the Software License Key page contains a
       trial period start control (Figure 118). To start the trial period, select Start trial period;
       when the confirmation message is displayed, select OK.



           To allow full transmit capacity, start the trial period at both link ends.

       When the trial has started, the Software License Key page displays the Trial Period
       Remaining attribute (Figure 119). This shows the time remaining (in days, hours or
       minutes) before the full capacity trial period expires.

       •     Upgrading to a new software version on page 6-23



           Ensure that the correct units are upgraded, as units cannot easily be downgraded
           afterwards.
           If the link is operational, ensure that the remote end of the link is upgraded first using
           the wireless connection, and then the local end can be upgraded. Otherwise, the remote
           end may not be accessible.

Upgrading to a new software version
       Perform this task to upgrade the units to a new version of PTP 800 operational software.
       CMU software version must be the same at both ends of the link. Limited operation may
       sometimes be possible with dissimilar software version, but such operation is not
       supported by Cambium.
       Upgrade the remote end of a link before upgrading the local end, and for a 1+1 Hot
       Standby link upgrade the inactive units and force a protection switch to them before
       upgrading the active units. This approach maximizes system availability.
       To upgrade the software, proceed as follows:

         1    Save the pre-upgrade system configuration as described in Saving the system
              configuration on page 6-117.

         2    Go to the support web page (see Contacting Cambium Networks on page 2) and
              find Point-to-Point software updates. Download and save the required software
              image (for example PTP 800-nn-mm.dld2 or PTP 800-nn-mm-FIPS.dld2).

Configuring AES encryption in an operational link

           Configuring link encryption over an operational link will necessitate a service outage.
           Therefore, the configuration process should be scheduled during a period of low link
           utilization.

       To enable AES encryption over an operational link, proceed as follows:

           1      Open two browsers.

           2      Log into the web interfaces at each end of the link.

           3      Perform Configuring AES encryption on page 6-26 at each unit.

           4      Reboot both ends of the link.

           5      The software is designed to allow five seconds so that a user can command both
                  ends of the link to reboot before the wireless link drops.


       To enable AES encryption over an operational 1+1 Hot Standby link:
       •       Configure licence keys on all CMUs, if required to permit use of encryption. See Task
               3: Installing license keys on page 6-18.
       •       Follow the procedure Changing AES encryption keys on page 7-53.

Configuring HTTPS/TLS
       Perform this procedure if the unit is required to operate in HTTPS/TLS mode. For more
       information, refer to Planning for HTTPS/TLS operation on page 2-23.



        If FIPS 140-2 secure mode is required, refer to Configuring for FIPS 140-2 applications
        on page 6-119 instead of this procedure.

       To configure HTTPS/TLS, proceed as follows:

         1   Ensure that the following cryptographic material has been generated:
                  Key Of Keys
                  TLS Private Key and Public Certificates (for the correct IP address)
                  User Defined Security Banner
                  Entropy Input
                  Wireless Link Encryption Key for AES

         2   Identify the Port numbers for HTTPS, HTTP and Telnet.

         3   Ensure that the web browsers used are enabled for HTTPS/TLS operation.

         4   Select menu option Management, Web, Local User Accounts and check that:
                  EITHER: Identity Based User Accounts are ‘Disabled’,
                  OR: Identity Based User Accounts are ‘Enabled’. and the current user's role
                  is Security Officer.

         5   Perform Task 3: Installing license keys on page 6-18 and ensure that the
             installed license key meets all requirements including HTTPS/TLS compatibility:
             Check that Encryption Algorithm is ‘AES….’.
             If necessary, generate and enter a new license key with the above settings.

         6   To activate HTTPS/TLS mode, perform Using the Security Wizard on page 6-30.

       Setting password complexity
       Complete this task to configure password complexity rules for the web-based management
       interface. If identity-based user accounts are enabled, this task may only be performed by
       a Security Officer.



         If the unit is required to operate in FIPS 140-2 secure mode, password complexity
         configuration must be set to ‘Best Practise Values’.

       To set these options, proceed as follows:

          1    Select menu option Management, Web, Local User Accounts. The Local
               User Accounts page is displayed (Figure 131).

          2    Review and update the password complexity configuration attributes (Table
               226).

          3    To reset all attributes to the best practice values (as shown in Table 226), select
               Set Best Practice Complexity. This is required for FIPS 140-2.

          4    To restore default values, select Set Default Complexity.

          5    If any attributes have been updated, select Submit User Account Updates.

       Creating or updating identity-based users
       Perform this task to allow multiple users (from one to ten) to access the CMU with
       different levels of access. There are three defined levels of access: Security Officer, System
       Administrator and Read Only. If identity-based user accounts are already enabled, this task
       may only be performed by a user with role set to Security Officer.
       To create or update identity-based user accounts, proceed as follows:

          1    Select menu option Management, Web, Local User Accounts. The Local User
               Accounts page is displayed (Figure 131).

          2    Set the Identity Based User Accounts attribute to ‘Enabled’ (if it is not already
               set). The identity-based user account attributes are enabled for update (Figure
               132).

          3    Create or update up to 10 user accounts (Table 227).

          4    To restore default accounts, select Reset to Factory Defaults.

       If the PTP 800 link is to be unprotected (1+0 or 2+0), perform Configuring unprotected
       links on page 6-50. If the PTP 800 link is to be protected using the 1+1 Hot Standby
       feature, perform Configuring 1+1 Hot Standby links on page 6-51.
       To upgrade an existing unprotected link to use the 1+1 Hot Standby, perform Upgrading
       an unprotected link to 1+1 Hot Standby on page 6-58.



Configuring unprotected links
       To ensure that protection is disabled, select menu option System, Configuration,
       Protection. When the Protection Configuration page is displayed (Figure 136), confirm
       that the Protection attribute is set to ‘Disabled’.

Configuring 1+1 Hot Standby links
       Before configuring CMUs which are part of a 1+1 Hot Standby link, it is strongly advised
       that a label is attached to the CMU identifying the IP Address, the Site Name and whether
       it is to be configured as Primary or Secondary. It should also be very clear which site is
       required to transmit on the High side of the FDD frequency plan and which is required to
       transmit at the low side.
       Depending on the configuration, a CMU labelled Primary must eventually be connected to
       one of the following:
       •   The ODU which is connected to the arm of the coupler labelled Main.
       •   The ODU which is connected to the antenna with the highest gain.
       •   The left hand transceiver in an IRFU.
       For background information, see 1+1 Hot Standby link protection on page 1-64.

       Before configuring the CMUs, ensure that the following information is known.
       •   Which CMU is to be configured as Primary and which unit is to be configured as
           Secondary. This is controlled by the Primary Secondary Mode attribute.
       •   Whether the end is to be installed with one or two antennas. This is controlled by the
           Number of Antennas attribute.
       •   Whether the method of connection to the Ethernet switch is via Fiber-Y. This is
           controlled by the Fiber-Y attribute. (see Network configurations for 1+1 on page 2-43
           for details about Fiber-Y).
       •   Whether the Primary Recovery feature should be enabled and if so, the value of
           Primary Recovery Period. If the Primary has become Inactive for any reason, for
           example a previous fault, this feature automatically forces the Primary to become
           active again if it has been fault free for a configurable period of time defined by the
           Primary Recovery Period. This only needs to be configured on the CMU configured as
           Secondary.
       •   Whether an Ethernet port down alert is required on each protection switch. This is
           controlled by the Protection Switch Alert attribute. Enabling this feature is only of
           benefit in complex networks, for example where a 1+1 Hot Standby link forms part of a
           ring network architecture. This should normally remain disabled.
       •   Whether Receive Diversity is to be enabled (see Planning for Receive Diversity on page
           2-46 for planning of this feature). This is controlled by the protection attribute.
       •   If Receive Diversity is to be enabled, ensure that the values for the Rx Diversity TPID
           (Tag Protocol Identifier) and the Rx Diversity VID (VLAN identifier) are known.

       Before upgrading existing links from unprotected to protected, complete the following
       prerequisites:
       •       Configure the new CMUs as primary or secondary units by setting the Primary
               Secondary Mode attribute.
       •       For a new primary CMU, ensure that wireless transmission is disabled by selecting
               Mute Transmitter. This prevents possible interference with the existing operational
               unit.
       •       Attach ‘Primary” or ‘Secondary’ labels as appropriate to the new CMUs.
       •       Set Fault Protection Switching to ‘Disabled’. This prevents fault protection switches
               occurring during installation.
       To configure protection, proceed as follows:

           1      Select menu option System, Configuration, Protection. The Protection
                  Configuration page is displayed (Figure 136).

           2      If the Transmitter attribute is set to ‘Enabled’, there may be a safety
                  requirement to disable wireless transmission. If so, select Mute Transmitter.
                  The Transmitter attribute changes to ‘Muted’.

           3      Depending on whether Receive Diversity is required, set the Primary unit
                  protection attribute to either ‘Hot Standby 1+1’ (Figure 137) or ‘Hot Standby
                  1+1 with Rx Diversity’ (Figure 138).

           4      Repeat at the Secondary unit (Figure 139 or Figure 140):

           5      Review and update the Protection Configuration attributes (Table 229).

           6      Select Submit Updated configuration.

        If a CMU is set to primary when a coupler is used, it must be connected to the ODU on
        the MAIN side of the coupler. This is especially important for an asymmetric coupler
        where the performance of the MAIN unit will be enhanced. In this case, Primary Recovery
        Period should be set to a non-zero value to maximize the use of the Main Path.



        If antenna protection is used and the two antennas are not the same, then the CMU
        connected to the more powerful antenna must be the primary. In this case, for optimum
        link performance, Primary Recovery Period must also be set to a non-zero value.



       Table 229 Protection Configuration attributes

        Attribute                        Meaning

        Transmitter                      If the transmitter is set to ‘Muted’, the RFU will not
                                         radiate and the CMU will not forward Ethernet
                                         frames between the wireless interface and the
                                         Ethernet ports. This applies in all conditions.
                                         If the transmitter is set to ‘Enabled’, the RFU is
                                         allowed by the user to radiate and the CMU is
                                         allowed by the user to forward Ethernet frames
                                         between the wireless interface and the Ethernet
                                         ports. However, other factors may still prevent this,
                                         for example if the unit is the inactive unit at an end
                                         of a 1+1 Hot Standby link.



                                           This attribute does not indicate whether the
                                           unit is actually radiating and forwarding
                                           Ethernet Frames, but is a configuration
                                           attribute allowing the unit to radiate and
                                           forward traffic if other factors permit. To see if
                                           the unit is actually radiating and forwarding
                                           traffic, examine the Transmitter Status attribute
                                           on the Status page.

        Protection                       For a 1+1 Hot Standby link, set this to:
                                              ‘Hot Standby 1+1’
                                              ‘Hot Standby 1+1 with Rx Diversity’
                                         For all other link types, set this to 'Disabled'.

        Attribute                    Meaning

        Fault Protection Switching   This must be set to ‘Enabled’ for the normal 1+1
                                     operation.
                                     When this is set to ‘Disabled’, a protection switch
                                     will not occur when a fault is detected on the active
                                     unit. With this setting, the user still has the ability
                                     to change which unit is active. This setting can be
                                     useful during installation or maintenance operations
                                     where the user wishes to have full control of which
                                     unit is active.
                                     When this is set to ‘Enabled’, a protection switch
                                     will occur when a fault is detected on the active
                                     unit.

        Primary Secondary mode       Allows the user to configure the CMU as Primary or
                                     Secondary. The CMU configured as Primary is the
                                     preferred unit in that it will become the active unit
                                     unless it is faulty. In the case where the two ODUs
                                     at an end have a different path loss, for example
                                     where they are coupled to a common antenna using
                                     an Asymmetric Coupler Mounting Kit (see Coupler
                                     mounting kits on page 1-30), the CMU configured
                                     as Primary should be connected to the RFU with
                                     the lowest path loss.

        Fiber-Y                      This must be only configured as ‘Enabled’ if the
                                     neighboring CMUs at an end of a 1+1 Hot Standby
                                     link are connected to the network using the Optical
                                     Y Splitter Kit (see Installing a Fiber-Y interface on
                                     page 5-92). For all other network connections, this
                                     must be set to ‘Disabled’.



                                       If a CMU is being replaced in an otherwise
                                       working 1+1 Hot Standby link, the Fiber must
                                       not be physically connected to the CMU unless
                                       Fiber-Y has already been configured as
                                       ‘Enabled’. If the fiber is connected before
                                       enabling Fiber-Y, the 1+1 link will not bridge
                                       customer data until it is enabled.

        Number of Antennas           Set this to the number of antennas to be installed at
                                     this end of the link.

        Primary Recovery          If Primary Recovery is set to ‘Enabled’ and the
                                  active unit is the Secondary unit, the Primary unit
                                  will become active if it has been fault free for a
                                  configurable period of time. It is the Secondary unit
                                  which controls if the Primary has been fault free for
                                  a sufficiently long period of time and so this option
                                  is only available on a unit configured as Secondary.

        Primary Recovery Period   This allows the user to configure how long the
                                  Primary unit must be free of faults before the
                                  Primary takes over as the active unit (see Primary
                                  Recovery).

        Protection Switch Alert   This provides the option for alerting to the Ethernet
                                  switch that a protection switch has occurred. This is
                                  done by the CMU momentarily (between 0.5 and 1
                                  second) disabling the Ethernet port on the newly
                                  active unit.
                                  For most network deployments, this would normally
                                  be set to ‘Disabled’. Setting this to ‘Enabled’ may
                                  however be useful in complex networks where the
                                  network design is to allow an alternative route to
                                  bridge the traffic following a protection switch.

        Rx Diversity TPID         The Inactive unit sends special Receive Diversity

        Rx Diversity VID          The Inactive unit sends special Receive Diversity
                                  Ethernet Frames to the Active unit via the Ethernet
                                  Switch. These frames must be configured with a

Task 6: Configuring protection                                  Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment




Upgrading an unprotected link to 1+1 Hot Standby
       This section describes how to upgrade an existing unprotected link to use the 1+1 Hot
       Standby link protection feature.



           Although the disruption to an existing link can be minimized, this process cannot be
           carried out without interrupting the operation of the link.

       The following actions will interrupt link operation:
       •     Upgrading the software. This can be carried out in advance of hardware installation.
             Alternatively during the installation after the inactive units have been installed and
             when the inactive units are providing an operational link, the existing units may be
             upgraded and configured.
       •     Installing a second ODU on the coupler if a single antenna is used at each end.
       •     Aligning antennas when antenna protection is implemented. As the new antennas
             operate on the same frequencies as the existing ones, alignment cannot be performed
             while the existing antennas run an operational link.
       •     Other operations if working close to an antenna.
       •     Testing that the protection is working correctly by forcing protection switchovers.




           If configuration is carried out on site, then before the new units are taken to site, radio
           transmission should be inhibited as described in Disabling wireless transmission on page
           7-32. This prevents possible interference with the existing operational unit.

                  from Task 1: Connecting to the unit on page 6-3,
                  to Task 11: Configuring remote access on page 6-93.
             These tasks may be performed after installation, if preferred.

         2   In the field, upgrade the operational CMUs to the latest software version by
             performing Task 4: Upgrading software version on page 6-22.

         3   In the field, configure the operational CMUs for protected operation by
             performing Task 6: Configuring protection on page 6-50.



                If this is done in advance of installation of the new CMUs, the PTP 800 will
                still be operational and the wireless link can operate with single units, but
                alarms will be issued due to the absence of protecting units.

             The Protected link page is now available with local and remote ends shown as
             unprotected, see Viewing the status of a 1+1 Hot Standby link on page 7-33.

         4   Install and test the new hardware by following the relevant procedures in this
             chapter.

         5   Align the antennas and complete the configuration. Perform the following tasks
             from Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment:
                  from Task 12: Aligning antennas on page 6-96,
                  to Task 15: Connecting link to the network on page 6-112.

         6   Initiate a protection switch so that the link is running Primary to Primary. If
             primary recovery is set, the units will switch automatically after the timer has
             expired.

Step 3: Configuring wireless parameters
       Step 3 of the Installation Wizard is for updating the constraints on wireless operation. The
       attributes depend upon Radio License Region and Radio License Modulation Selection
       (Figure 147 or Figure 148). The attributes are described in Table 232. Update the
       attributes as required and select Next.

Step 5: Skipping antenna alignment
       If the Installation Wizard is being run during pre-configuration before site installation,
       then antenna alignment must be deferred until site installation is complete at both link
       ends. If the Installation Wizard is being run after site installation is complete, then antenna
       alignment can begin immediately.



           Do not start antenna alignment until it is safe for the antennas to radiate RF,
           that is, until the antennas and ODUs have been installed on the masts or poles
           and no personnel are in front of the antennas.

       When the Step 5: Start Antenna Alignment page is displayed (Figure 150), choose whether
       to defer or start alignment:
       •     If alignment is to be deferred, select Skip Alignment. This cancels the Install Wizard
             without doing alignment, but configuration changes are saved.
       •     If alignment is to be started now, continue at Task 12: Aligning antennas on page 6-96.



           If the RFU is not connected to the CMU, then the Start Alignment option is disabled.
           The Installation Wizard does not allow progress to antenna alignment.

Task 12: Aligning antennas                                   Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment




Task 12: Aligning antennas

       Use the Installation Wizard to set the system into alignment mode, to achieve the lowest
       possible link loss through correct antenna alignment, and to report on the performance of
       the configured link.



        Do not start antenna alignment until it is safe for the antennas to radiate RF,
        that is, until the antennas and ODUs have been installed on the masts or poles
        and no personnel are in front of the antennas.

       For background on the alignment process, refer to Introduction to antenna alignment on
       page 6-96.

       Check that the requirements in Prerequisites for alignment on page 6-97 have been met.
       For a 1+1 Hot Standby link with two antennas at each end of the link, perform Aligning
       protected antennas on page 6-97.

       For an unprotected link, or for a 1+1 Hot Standby link that uses ODU couplers, perform
       Aligning a pair of antennas on page 6-98.



Introduction to antenna alignment
       Licensed microwave links use parabolic dish antennas which have narrow beam widths
       ranging from 4.7° down to 0.5°. Beam width depends on antenna gain, larger gain
       antennas having narrower beam widths. It is most important that all PTP 800 antennas are
       precisely aligned at the centre of the main beam. If antennas are not aligned at the centre
       of the main beam, performance will be dramatically reduced.

       The alignment process requires the elevation angle (vertical plane) and azimuth angle
       (horizontal plane) to be adjusted. Antenna assemblies provide a mechanism for
       independently adjusting in both planes whilst the antenna mounting bracket is securely
       mounted to the mast. Please refer to the instructions provided with the antenna.
       Alignment is achieved by monitoring the receive signal strength indicator (RSSI). This is
       provided at the RFU BNC socket in the form of a dc voltage (RSSI Voltage).

Prerequisites for alignment
       Before starting alignment, check that the following requirements have been met:
       •       The antennas, cables and CMUs have been installed at both ends of the link.
       •       A link planning report is available (for example, from LINKPlanner). It should include
               predicted RSSI voltage ranges (or received signal levels) and bearings for both ends of
               the link. If the report specifies predicted receive signal levels (dBm) but not voltages,
               then convert dBm to volts using the formula or graph in RSSI output on page 4-5.
       •       Two voltmeters with BNC connectors are available.
       •       No personnel are in front of the antennas.



Aligning protected antennas
       For a 1+1 Hot Standby link with two antennas at each end of the link, align each of the
       following three pairs by following Aligning a pair of antennas on page 6-98:

           1      Align the ‘Tx Hi’ primary antenna to the ‘Tx Lo’ primary antenna. Do not make
                  any further adjustments to the two primary antennas.

           2      Align the ‘Tx Hi’ secondary antenna to the (now fixed) ‘Tx Lo’ primary antenna.

           3      Align the ‘Tx Lo’ secondary antenna to the (now fixed) ‘Tx Hi’ primary antenna.
       Step 1 should be performed first, but step 3 can be performed before step 2, if preferred.



Aligning dual-polar antennas
       Alignment should be performed with either the Horizontal units muted or Vertical units
       muted. The RSSI should be taken on link not muted. After alignment, the difference in
       receive power should be within tolerance of Link Planner.

       For more information, refer to the antenna manufacturer’s instructions.

           When the Start Alignment option is selected, the Installation Wizard automatically
           enables wireless transmission in alignment mode.

       Antennas are aligned by monitoring RFU output voltage and receive power.
       Align each pair of antennas by using Step 5, Step 6 and Step 7 of the Installation Wizard,
       as described in the following procedures:
       •     Step 5: Starting antenna alignment on page 6-98
       •     Step 6: Aligning antennas on page 6-98
       •     Step 7: Completing alignment on page 6-103



Step 5: Starting antenna alignment
       At both link ends, check that the Step 5: Start Antenna Alignment page is displayed
       (Figure 150). If necessary, select menu option Installation Wizard and click through
       Steps 1 to 4 of the wizard.



Step 6: Aligning antennas
       Select Start Alignment at both link ends. The Step 6: Antenna Alignment page is
       displayed (Figure 166).



           In the Step 6: Antenna Alignment page (Figure 166 and Figure 169), Transmit Power,
           Receive Power, Vector Error and Link Loss are presented as an array of four elements.
           These elements represent the maximum, mean, minimum and latest values respectively.
           The maximum, mean and minimum are calculated over a running one hour period.



           During the alignment process, ensure that antenna waveguide and coaxial components
           are not strained beyond their minimum bend radii.

       Preparing for alignment
       To prepare the antennas for alignment, proceed as follows at both link ends:

         1    Using the instructions provided with the antenna, set the elevation and
              azimuth adjustment mechanisms to the centre of the range.

         2    Using the instructions provided with the antenna, adjust the position of the
              antenna mounting bracket such that the antenna is pointing at the other end of
              the link. Use a compass and the bearing provided by the planning report.

         3    Once the antenna is in position, resecure the mounting bracket.

         4    Connect a suitable voltmeter to the RSSI connector. Figure 9 shows the location
              of this connector for the ODU and Figure 17 shows the connector on the IRFU.
              Connect the center of the RSSI connector to the positive terminal of the
              voltmeter.

         5    Use the voltmeter to monitor the RSSI voltage during alignment.

Task 12: Aligning antennas                                     Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment



        Aligning one end
        Align the antenna at one end of the link while keeping the antenna at the other end of the
        link stationary.
        To find the correct elevation and azimuth angles at one end, proceed as follows:

         1    Perform a complete sweep of the elevation range of the antenna by adjusting
              the elevation angle incrementally. The extent of the sweep depends upon
              antenna gain. Measure RSSI voltage at each point in the sweep.

         2    The resulting plot of voltage against elevation should be symmetrical. Record
              the elevation angle that appears to be at the axis of symmetry, as this is likely to
              be the correct angle for aligning with the other antenna (Figure 167).



                Figure 167 shows the axis of symmetry occurring at a voltage ‘peak’.
                However, it is possible for the axis of symmetry (and therefore the correct
                elevation angle) to occur at a voltage ‘trough’ (Figure 168).

         3    Set the elevation angle to the axis of symmetry, as identified in the plot.

         4    Perform a complete sweep of the azimuth range of the antenna and record the
              resulting plot of voltage against azimuth.

         5    Set azimuth angle to the centre of the range over which the maximum RSSI
              voltage is recorded.

Task 12: Aligning antennas                                      Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment




        Aligning the other end
        Repeat the above procedure at the other end of the link.
        Record the RSSI voltage at both ends of the link. If the voltage at either end of the link is
        not in the range predicted by the planning report, repeat alignment until this is the case.


        Post-alignment actions

         In a 1+1 Hot Standby link, the tolerances in the ODUs may result in the Receive Power
         delta between the primary and secondary units at same end of the link being different
         from the delta predicted by the network designer. Configurations using a single antenna
         may have up to ±5 dB additional delta when compared with the design value. Where
         separate antennas are used, the tolerances may increase if either path incurs any Excess
         Path Loss.

        When alignment is complete at both ends, proceed as follows:

          1    At each end of the link in turn, lock off and tighten all the adjustment bolts as
               per the instructions provided with the antenna and check that the RSSI voltage
               does not change. If it does change, repeat alignment for the affected end.

          2    Check that the following requirements are met:
               RSSI voltage at both ends is within the range predicted by the planning report.
               Wireless Link Status is ‘Up’ (green) (Figure 169).
               Receive Power at both end is within the range predicted by the planning report
               (Figure 169).

          3    If any of the above requirements are not met, antenna alignment is not
               complete; refer to troubleshooting section Installing the link on page 8-9.

          4    If all of the above requirements are met, select Alignment Complete (Figure
               169).

          5    If antenna alignment cannot be performed now and must be deferred, select
               Abandon Alignment. This cancels the Install Wizard without doing alignment.
               The transmitter is muted and the Step 7: Alignment Abandoned page is
               displayed (Figure 170).

        Attribute                  Meaning

        Transmitter                ‘Muted’ means that the RFU will not radiate and the CMU
                                   will not forward Ethernet Frames between the wireless
                                   interface and the Ethernet ports. This applies in all
                                   conditions.
                                   ‘Enabled’ means that the RFU is allowed to radiate and the
                                   CMU is allowed to forward Ethernet Frames between the
                                   wireless interface and the Ethernet Ports. However, other
                                   factors may still prevent this, for example if the unit is the
                                   inactive unit at an end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link.
                                   To change the state from ‘Muted’ to ‘Enabled’, select
                                   Enable Transmitter.
                                   To change the state from ‘Enabled’ to ‘Muted’, select Mute

                                     This attribute does not indicate whether the unit is
                                     actually radiating and forwarding Ethernet Frames but
                                     is a configuration attribute allowing the unit to radiate
                                     and forward traffic if other factors permit. To see if the
                                     unit is actually radiating and forwarding traffic,
                                     examine the Transmitter Status attribute, which is

Task 13: Reviewing configuration and performance                Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment




Comparing actual to predicted performance
        For at least one hour of operation after alignment is complete, the link should be
        monitored to check that it is achieving predicted levels of performance.

        To check performance, select menu option System, Statistics. The System Statistics and
        Counters page is displayed (Figure 194). Monitor the following attributes:
        •     Link Loss
        •     Transmit Data Rate
        •     Receive Data Rate
        •     Receive Power: To maintain error free communication, ensure that the average
              operational receive power, using ATPC if enabled, does not exceed -35 dBm. If the
              receive power exceeds -35d Bm, enable ATPC if currently disabled. Alternatively,
              reduce the maximum transmit power at the other end of the link to reduce the receive
              power to the normal operating level. If absolutely necessary the receive power level
              can be reduced by adding a fixed waveguide attenuator, which requires a remote
              mount antenna.
        PTP LINKPlanner provides the prediction in the form of an installation report.



            In a 1+1 Hot Standby link, the tolerances in the ODUs may result in the Receive Power
            delta between the primary and secondary units at same end of the link being different
            from the delta predicted by the network designer. Configurations using a single antenna
            may have up to ±5 dB additional delta when compared with the design value. Where
            separate antennas are used, the tolerances may increase if either path incurs any Excess
            Path Loss.

Task 15: Connecting link to the network                           Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment




Task 15: Connecting link to the network

        Perform this task to connect to the network and set the system clock.
        This task consists of the following procedures:
        •       Connecting to the network on page 6-112
        •       Setting the real-time clock on page 6-113
        •       Saving the system configuration on page 6-117



Connecting to the network
        To complete and test the network connections, proceed as follows:

            1      Disconnect the local PC from the CMU management port at each CMU.

            2      Connect the CMUs to the network equipment using the cables that were
                   prepared in Preparing network connections (1+0 and 2+0 links) on page 5-83
                   or Preparing network connections (1+1 Hot Standby) on page 5-88.

            3      Check that each of the CMUs is reachable from the network management
                   system by opening the web interface to the management agents, or by
                   requesting ICMP echo response packets using the Ping application. The
                   network management system will normally be geographically remote from the
                   site, so it may be necessary to request that this action is completed by co-
                   workers at the management centre. Alternatively, it may be possible to use
                   remote login to the management system.



                     For testing the remote end of a link with in-band management, the wireless
                     link may need to be operational first.

            4      Check that the data network operates correctly across the wireless link. This
                   may be by requesting ICMP echo response packets between hosts in the
                   connected network segments, or by some more structured use of network
                   testing tools.

            5      For a 1+1 Hot Standby link:

                   Initiate a protection switch at one end of the link (as described in Forcing
                   protection switches on page 7-37) and check that the data network operates
                   correctly across the wireless link (as described in the previous step).

                   Initiate a switch back to the primary unit.
                   Repeat for the other end of the link.

PTP 800 Series User Guide                                         Task 15: Connecting link to the network



           6      For a 1+1 Hot Standby link, re-enable automatic fault protection switching by
                  setting the Fault Protection Switching attribute to ‘Enabled’, as described in
                  Configuring 1+1 Hot Standby links on page 6-51.
                  Repeat for the other end of the link.

           7      Check that the wireless interface is enabled at both ends, as described in
                  Enabling wireless transmission on page 7-32.
                  For a 1+1 Hot Standby link, check that both units are enabled at each end.

           8      Select menu option Home and check that there are no alarms on any unit. For
                  more information, see Managing alarms on page 7-15.




Setting the real-time clock
       The clock supplies accurate date and time information to the CMU. It can be set to run
       with or without a connection to a network time server (SNTP):
       •       In the absence of an SNTP server connection, the clock can be set to run manually. The
               clock is battery backed and will continue to operate for several days after the CMU is
               switched off.
       •       If an SNTP server connection is available, the clock can be set to synchronize with the
               server time at regular intervals.


       Setting the real-time clock manually
       To set the CMU clock to keep time without connecting to a networked time server, select
       menu option Management, Time. The Time Configuration page is displayed. Set the
       SNTP State attribute to ‘Disabled’: the manual clock attributes are displayed (Figure 175).
       Review and update the manual clock attributes (Table 246), then select Submit Updated
       Configuration.

Configuring for FIPS 140-2 applications

       This is a summary of all the configuration tasks that are necessary if the unit is to operate
       in FIPS 140-2 secure mode. For more information, refer to FIPS 140-2 on page 1-71 and
       Planning for FIPS 140-2 operation on page 2-24.



Prerequisites for FIPS 140-2 configuration
       To confirm that all prerequisites for FIPS 140-2 are ready, proceed as follows:

         1    Ensure that the following cryptographic material has been generated using a
              FIPS-approved cryptographic generator:

                  Key Of Keys
                  TLS Private Key and Public Certificates (for the correct IP address)
                  Entropy Input
                  Wireless Link Encryption Key for AES

         2    Identify the Port number for HTTPS.

         3    Ensure that the web browsers used are enabled for HTTPS/TLS operation using
              FIPS-approved cipher specifications.

         4    Select menu option Management, Web, Local User Accounts and check that
              the current user's role is Security Officer.

         5    Perform Task 3: Installing license keys on page 6-18 and ensure that the installed
              license key meets all requirements including FIPS 140-2 compatibility:
                  Check that Security Level is ‘FIPS’.
                  Check that Encryption Algorithm is ‘AES….’.
                  If necessary, generate and enter a new license key with the above settings.

         6    Perform Task 4: Upgrading software version on page 6-22 and ensure that the
              installed software version is prefixed FIPS-. If necessary, upgrade to the latest
              FIPS validated image.

            7       To confirm that the above steps have been completed, check that the ‘FIPS 140-2
                    Validated’ logo is displayed in the Navigation Bar:




Configuration procedures for FIPS 140-2
        To activate FIPS 140-2 secure mode, perform the following procedures:
        •       Using the Security Wizard on page 6-30.
        •       Configuring local user accounts on page 6-39, taking care to complete the following
                additional settings:
                o   Select Set Best Practice Complexity.
                o   Configure appropriate identity-based user names and passwords.



Checking that the unit is in FIPS 140-2 secure mode
        To confirm that the unit is now in FIPS 140-2 secure mode, select menu option Home and
        look for the FIPS Operational Mode Alarm:
        •       If the FIPS Operational Mode Alarm is NOT present, the unit is in FIPS 140-2 mode.
        •       If the alarm is present and has the value ‘FIPS mode is not configured’, return to Using
                the Security Wizard on page 6-30 and check that all Security Wizard settings are
                correct for FIPS 140-2.
        •       If the alarm is present and has the value ‘FIPS mode is configured, but not active’,
                return to Step 7: HTTP and Telnet settings on page 6-36 and check the following
                attributes:
                HTTP Access Enabled: should be ‘No’.
                Telnet Access Enabled: should be ‘No’.
                SNMP Control of HTTP And Telnet: should be ‘Disabled’.



            If it is necessary to exit from FIPS 140-2 mode, refer to Exiting FIPS 140-2 mode on page
            7-51.

HTTPS key size warning
       If the HTTPS key size warning alarm (Figure 178) is present in the Home page, no
       immediate action is necessary, as this alarm does not block the transition to FIPS 140-2
       secure mode. This alarm is produced because FIPS 140-2 recommends a TLS Private Key
       of at least 2048 bits, but a 1024 bit key has been entered. To clear this alarm, generate a
       new TLS certificate with key length of at least 2048 bits, then return to Step 2: TLS private
       key and public certificate on page 6-32.

       RFU Fault                The RFU has raised alarms, but the CMU makes its best
                                effort to carry on.

       Incompatible License     The configured radio license is not compatible with this
                                RFU. The RFU remains muted.

       In Reset                 The RFU is booting. This state is transient during CMU boot
                                or after firmware download.

       Download In Progress     New RFU firmware is being downloaded. Percentage
                                completion is shown here.

       Incompatible Firmware    The RFU firmware is too old. If possible, download will
       Version                  begin.

       Incompatible Device      The connected device is an RFU, but it is not a Cambium
                                branded product.

       IF Card Attached         The connected device is an IF card, not an RFU.

       No Response              No response can be detected from the RFU. It is probably
                                not connected.

       Power Supply Fault       The power supply to the RFU is at fault (short circuited).

       Power Supply Disabled    The power supply to the RFU is disabled. It can only be
                                enabled by Cambium.

       Inactive                 The RFU is mute because it is in the inactive mode.

       Muted - By User          The user has disabled transmission using the Configuration
                                Page.

       Muted - Configuration    The transmission is enabled but the radio license is not

        Searching                  A red background with status text “searching” indicates that
                                   the link is not established and no signal has yet been
                                   detected from the PTP 800 at the other end of the link. This
                                   is a valid status value; if the link remains in this state it
                                   implies that the remote PTP 800 has not been detected.

        Other values               A red background with status text (registering, acquiring,
                                   initialising) indicates that the link is not yet established.
                                   These are normal stages in the establishment of an

Identifying a unit from the web browser title
       An option is available to configure the web browser such that units can be individually
       identified from the browser and tab titles. This can be very useful when managing a
       number of units from multiple browser tabs.
       By default, the web browser title displays the following text:
           Cambium PTP 800 - <current page> (IP = <ipAddress>)
       For example, if the IP address is 10.10.10.41 and the current page is the System Status
       page, the browser title is displayed as shown in Figure 184.

       To configure the browser title, select menu option Management, Web, Web Properties.
       The Webpage Properties page is displayed (Figure 185). Update the Browser Title
       attribute (a blank entry will display the default title). Select Apply Properties.

       Figure 185 Browser Title variable entry




       The Browser Title attribute allows the user to enter simple text. In addition, the attribute
       accepts specific variables which can be used to identify the units. Each variable is prefixed
       with a $ character. Any combination of variables and simple text may be entered into this
       attribute. The full list of variables is in Table 256.

       Example
       Each unit in a 1+1 Hot Standby link may be fully identified by the siteName, the
       primarySecondaryMode and the linkName. For example, suppose that these variables are
       set to:
       •   siteName = ‘Site1’, ‘Site2’, ‘Site3’ and ‘Site4’
       •   primarySecondaryMode = ‘Primary’ or ‘Secondary’
       •   linkName = ‘Rack RBW4’
       For each unit, use the Webpage Properties page to enter the relevant Browser Title
       variables (Figure 185). As a result, the four units in the 1+1 Hot Standby are identified in
       the browser tabs, and the currently selected unit is identified in the browser title bar
       (Figure 186).

       Figure 186 Identifying units in the web browser title bar and tabs




Logging out
       To maintain security, always log out at the end of a session by selecting menu option
       Logout.
       Alternatively, the unit will log out automatically, but this depends upon the setting of Auto
       Logout Period in the Webpage Properties page (Figure 134).

Managing alarms and events

       This section describes how to manage PTP 800 system alarms and events.
       This section contains the following procedures:
       •   Managing alarms on page 7-15.
       •   Managing email alerts on page 7-24.
       •   Managing SNMP traps on page 7-24.
       •   Managing event notification messages on page 7-31.



Managing alarms
       Whenever system alarms are outstanding, a yellow warning triangle is displayed on the
       navigation bar. The warning triangle is visible from all web pages. Click the warning
       triangle (or menu option Home) to return to the System Summary page and view the
       alarms. If the warning triangle disappears when it is clicked, it indicates that the
       outstanding alarms have been cleared. A change of state in most alarms generates an
       SNMP trap or an SMTP email alert.
       The alarm configuration procedure is described in Task 9: Configuring alarms and
       messages on page 6-87.

       The example in Figure 187 shows the warning triangle in the navigation bar and the
       ‘Channel A’ alarm displayed in the System Summary page.

Managing alarms and events                                                     Chapter 7: Operation



       The alarms are defined as follows:


       <attribute name> Neighbor Compatibility
       Definition: In order for a 1+1 Hot Standby link end to be correctly protected, a number of
       key attributes must be configured to be compatible in the two neighbor CMUs. If a key
       attribute is configured to be mismatched, an associated alarm will be displayed on the
       Home page of both neighbor CMUs. Each alarm has the form <attribute name> neighbor
       compatibility, for example ‘Radio License Tx Freq Neighbor Compatibility’ indicates that
       the Radio License Tx Freq is different for the neighbor CMUs.
       Cause and action: Correct the attribute which is indicating the mismatch.


       Alignment mode
       Definition: The CMU is in alignment mode.
       Cause and action: This should only occur during installation or maintenance when the
       wireless link is being aligned. To take a unit out of alignment mode, access the Installation
       Wizard (see Task 7: Configuring wireless interface on page 6-60).


       Data port configuration mismatch
       Definition: The Ethernet configuration of the data port is not compatible with the
       connected network equipment.
       Cause and action: This is probably due to a configuration error such as an auto-
       negotiation or forced configuration mismatch.


       Data port disabled warning
       Definition: The fiber and copper data port has been disabled by means of the SNMP MIB.
       Cause and action: The port has been disabled by a network management system. The
       web browser provides no means of disabling this port.


       Data Port Ethernet Speed Status
       Definition: In a 1+1 Hot Standby configuration, this indicates if the Ethernet Speed of the
       Data port is below that of its neighbor. For example, where the Data Port has negotiated at
       100BASE-T but the neighbor has negotiated at 1000BASE-T.
       Cause and action: This could be due to a difference between the configuration of the
       Data ports of the neighbor CMUs (see LAN Configuration page) or in the configuration of
       the two ports at the network equipment. A fault in the Ethernet cable could also cause an
       Ethernet port to negotiate at a lower speed.

PTP 800 Series User Guide                                                Managing alarms and events



       Data port fiber status
       Definition: Reports the status of the fiber data port.
       Cause and action: There are two possible causes:
       •   The interface could not be established even though a fiber carrier was detected. This
           could be due to a broken TX fiber, or because the interface is disabled at the other end
           of the fiber link.
       •   The interface could not be established and no fiber carrier is detected.


       Data port status
       Definition: The status of the data port, either fiber or copper link.
       Cause and action: See Table 254 for values and their meanings.


       Encryption Enabled Mismatch
       Definition: Encryption has been enabled on one end of the wireless link but not the other.
       Cause and action: This is probably due to an encryption configuration error. Reconfigure
       encryption.


       End Wireless Receive Signal Status
       Definition: This indicates if the end, consisting of two neighbor CMUs and two neighbor
       RFUs, are able to demodulate the transmit signal from the remote end of the link. For a
       1+1 Hot Standby link with Rx Diversity enabled, both neighbors must be unable to
       demodulate the signal before this indicates a value of Not Detected. For 1+1 Hot Standby
       link where Rx Diversity is disabled, this indicates a value of Not Detected only if the active
       CMU cannot demodulate the signal.
       Cause and action: If this alarm is unaccompanied by other alarms, the cause will often be
       due to a deep fade of the wireless channel. This could be caused by many environmental
       effects such as rain fades in the higher frequency bands or ducting for long links where
       Spatial Rx Diversity is not deployed.


       FCC capacity check
       Definition: The Transmit Capacity Limit of the unit (lower of license key and negotiated
       Ethernet speed at remote end) is below the appropriate level required by FCC Part
       101.141.
       Cause and action: This is probably due to a configuration error or the wrong license
       being applied to one of the CMUs.

Managing alarms and events                                                    Chapter 7: Operation



       Fips Operational Mode Alarm
       Definition: The unit is FIPS 140-2 capable, but has not been configured correctly for FIPS
       140-2 operation.
       Cause and action:
       •   ‘FIPS mode is not configured’: The Security Wizard has not been completed.
       •   ‘FIPS mode is configured, but not active’: The Security Wizard has been completed, but
           the HTTP and Telnet management interfaces have not been disabled.


       Licensed Transmit Capacity Status
       Definition: In a 1+1 Hot Standby configuration, this indicates that the Licensed Transmit
       Capacity is below that of its neighbor.

       Cause and action: This is probably due to a configuration error or the wrong license
       being applied to one of the CMUs.


       Link name mismatch
       Definition: The link names at each end of the wireless link do not match.
       Cause and action: The link name is configured differently at each end of the wireless
       link. This may be because of:
       •   A configuration error in defining the link name at one of the PTP 800s, see Step 1:
           Enter equipment details on page 6-62;
       •   This unit is aligned to the wrong link partner.


       Management port configuration mismatch
       Definition: The Ethernet configuration of the management port is not compatible with the
       connected network equipment.
       Cause and action: This is probably due to a configuration error such as an auto-
       negotiation or forced configuration mismatch. See Configuring the IP interface and
       management mode on page 6-10.


       Management port disabled warning
       Definition: The management port has been disabled by means of the SNMP MIB.
       Cause and action: The port has been disabled by a network management system. The
       web browser provides no means of disabling this port.

PTP 800 Series User Guide                                                Managing alarms and events



       Management Port Ethernet Speed Status
       Definition: In a 1+1 Hot Standby configuration, this indicates if the Ethernet Speed of the
       Management port is below that of its neighbor. For example, where the Management port
       has negotiated at 10BASE-T but the neighbor has negotiated at 100BASE-T.
       Cause and action: This could be due to a difference between the configuration of the
       Management ports of the neighbor CMUs (see LAN configuration page) or in the
       configuration of the two ports at the network equipment. A fault in the Ethernet cable
       could also cause an Ethernet port to negotiate at a lower speed.


       Management port status
       Definition: The status of the management port if out-of-band management is being used.
       Cause and action: See Table 255 for values and their meanings.


       Protection Availability Status
       Definition: This indicates if an end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link is not protected, for
       example due to the inactive unit exhibiting a fault, the protection cable being
       disconnected, the configuration of the inactive unit being incompatible with that of the
       active unit, or Fault Protection Switching being set to disabled. If the end is not protected,
       the active unit will indicate 'Not Protected' and the inactive unit will indicate ‘Not
       Protecting’.

       Cause and action: If a unit is indicating that it is not protected or not protecting, check
       the following:
       •   Check that the configuration of the two neighbors is compatible. See <attribute
           name> neighbor compatibility.
       •   Check that the transmitter of the inactive unit is not muted. This is controlled on the
           Configuration page or the Protection Page.
       •   Check that the two neighbors are not in Alignment Mode (See Alignment Mode (top of
           this table)).
       •   Check that Fault Protection Switching is Enabled. This can be set from the Protection
           Configuration page or the Protected Link Management page.
       •   Check that the Protection Interface is operating correctly (see Protection Interface
           Status)
       •   Check that the inactive unit is not exhibiting any faults.

       Protection Interface Status
       Definition:
       •   If the protection cable is physically disconnected from either CMU, this indicates ‘Not
           Connected’.
       •   If the protection cable is connected at both neighbor CMUs but the neighbor is not
           responding, this indicates ‘Neighbor Not Responding’.
       Cause and action:
       •   If indicating ‘Not Connected’ check that the protection cable is physically connected at
           both CMUs. If installed, check the cabling to the OOB Protection Splitter.
       •   If indicating ‘Neighbor Not Responding’ check the following:
           o   Check that the neighbor CMU is powered up and functioning.
           o   Check that Protection has been configured as 'Protection 1+1' - see Protection
               Configuration page.
           o   Check the integrity of the protection cables.


       RFU Common IF Synth Lock
       Definition: This indicates a failure of the Common IF synthesizer in the RFU.
       Cause and action: This is a failure of the RFU hardware. Please inform Customer Support
       of this alarm.


       RFU Common RF Synth Lock
       Definition: This indicates a failure of the Common RF synthesizer in the RFU.
       Cause and action: This is a failure of the RFU hardware. Please inform Customer Support
       of this alarm.


       RFU Fan
       Definition: This indicates when the IRFU transceiver fan assembly has failed. The
       assembly consists of two fans and if one fan fails, the this will report partial failure. If both
       fans fail, this will report total failure.
       Cause and action: This is a failure of the IRFU fan assembly. Please inform Customer
       Support of this alarm.

       RFU High Temperature
       Definition: This indicates when the temperature of the IRFU transceiver has risen above
       either of two thresholds:
       •   If the temperature exceeds the High Temperature threshold, the transmit power may
           reduce.
       •   If the temperature exceeds the Very High Temperature threshold, the transceiver will
           mute the transmitter.
       Cause and action: This could be caused by failure of the IRFU transceiver fan assembly.
       Check if there is an active fan alarm:
       •   If there is no active fan alarm, check that there is nothing obstructing the correct
           operation of the fan assembly.
       •   If nothing is obstructing the fan assembly, ensure that the IRFU has been installed
           correctly and in an environment which is in line with specifications.


       RFU RF Switch
       Definition: For a 1+1 IRFU, both the Primary and Secondary transceivers transmit but
       the energy from only one of the transceivers is switched to the antenna via an RF switch.
       The RF switch resides in the branching unit of the IRFU. This alarm is displayed if the RF
       switch fails to switch.
       Cause and action: The most likely cause is a failure of the IRFU RF Switch. Please inform
       Customer Support of this alarm.


       RFU RF Switch Cable
       Definition: For a 1+1 IRFU, both the Primary and Secondary transceivers transmit but
       the energy from only one of the transceivers is switched to the antenna via an RF switch.
       The RF switch resides in the branching unit of the IRFU and connects to each transceiver
       with a separate cable. This alarm is raised if the transceiver cannot detect the RF Switch.
       Cause and action: The most likely cause is that the cable connecting the transceiver to
       the RF switch is faulty or disconnected.


       RFU Rx IF Synth Lock
       Definition: This indicates a failure of the Rx IF synthesizer in the RFU.
       Cause and action: This is a failure of the RFU hardware. Please inform Customer Support
       of this alarm.

       Cause and action: The possible values for this attribute are shown in Table 250. If the
       value is set to Fault, there will be another RFU alarm condition displayed indicating the
       detail of the fault.


       RFU Tx IF Synth Lock
       Definition: This indicates a failure of the Tx IF synthesizer in the RFU.
       Cause and action: This is a failure of the RFU hardware. Please inform Customer Support
       of this alarm.


       RFU Tx RF Synth Lock
       Definition: This indicates a failure of the Tx RF synthesizer in the RFU.
       Cause and action: This is a failure of the RFU hardware. Please inform Customer Support
       of this alarm.


       Rx Diversity Availability Status
       Definition: Receive Diversity is enabled but not operating.
       Cause and action:
       •   The Inactive CMU is not operating. Check that it is powered up and can be managed.
       •   The neighbor CMU does not have Rx Diversity enabled. Check the value of the
           protection attribute.
       •   The neighbor CMUs are configured with incompatible attribute values. Check for any
           outstanding configuration attributes <attribute Name> Neigbor Compatibility and
           correct the mismatch.
       •   The RFU of the Inactive unit is faulty or not responding to the CMU. Check that there
           is no outstanding RFU Status alarm.
       •   The IF cable between Inactive CMU and RFU is faulty. Check that there is no
           outstanding RFU Status alarm.
       •   The Protection Interface is not operating. Check that there is no outstanding Protection
           Interface Status alarm.

       •   The Data Port of either CMU is not connected or has not negotiated at 1000 Mbps.
           Check that there is no outstanding Rx Diversity Data Port Status alarm on either CMU.
       •   If none of the above conditions exist but Rx Diversity Availability is still indicating a
           problem, the likely cause is the configuration of the Rx Diversity VLAN in the Ethernet
           Switch. Check that the Ethernet Switch is configured correctly to ensure that Rx
           Diversity Ethernet Frames are bridged between the Inactive and Active.


       Rx Diversity Data Port Status
       Definition: For Rx Diversity to operate, the Data Port of both the Active and Inactive CMU
       must be negotiated at 1000 Mbps. This attribute is displayed if this is not the case.
       Cause and action:
       •   There is a problem with the Ethernet Cable. Check that the Data Port Status of both
           neighbor CMUs is indicating that the port has negotiated at 1000 Mbps Full Duplex.
       •   The Active or Inactive CMU has been configured to prevent operation at 1000 Mbps.
           Check that the Data Port Copper Auto Negotiation is set to enabled and that Data Port
           Copper Auto Neg Advertisement includes 1000 Mbps Full Duplex. These are available
           on the LAN Configuration page.
       •   The Ethernet Switch is configured to prevent operation at 1000 Mbps.
       •   If operating with Fiber-Y,the Data Port of the Inactive CMU has trained with fiber. This
           is incorrect for Fiber-Y. Check that the value of Data Port Status is set to Copper Link
           Up. This is displayed on the Status Page. If this is not the case, check that copper Data
           Port is also connected to the Ethernet Switch as well as the Fiber-Y cable.


       SNTP Synchronization Failed
       Definition: SNTP has been enabled but the unit is unable to synchronize with the
       specified SNTP server.
       Cause and action: If SNTP Sync fails then check the server settings or disable SNTP and
       set the time locally. See Setting the real-time clock on page 6-113.


       Unit Out Of Calibration
       Definition: The unit is out of calibration and must be returned to the factory using the
       RMA process for re-calibration.
       Cause and action: Check the calibration status and arrange for recalibration of the unit.


       Wireless link status
       Definition: The status of the end-to-end wireless link.

       Cause and action: See Table 252 for values and their meanings.

       Wireless Receive Signal Status
       Definition: The Wireless Receive Signal Status indicates if the receiver is able to
       demodulate the transmit signal from the remote end of the link.
       Cause and action: If this alarm is unaccompanied by other alarms, the cause will often be
       due to a deep fade of the wireless channel. This could be caused by many environmental
       effects such as rain fades in the higher frequency bands or ducting for long links.



Managing email alerts
       The management agent can be configured to generate alerts by electronic mail when
       certain events occur. The email message configuration procedure is described in Task 9:
       Configuring alarms and messages on page 6-87. The alerts mirror the SNMP traps defined
       in Table 257.



Managing SNMP traps
       The PTP 800 supports SNMP v2 remote management and provides a comprehensive range
       of alarms. Table 257 lists the SNMP traps that the PTP 800 supports, their significance
       and possible causes.

       The SNMP configuration procedure is described in Task 9: Configuring alarms and
       messages on page 6-87. The traps may be disabled totally or individual traps disabled.



        These traps mirror the system status and alarm information displayed on the System
        Summary and System Status pages.

Managing event notification messages
       When system logging is enabled, log entries are added to the internal log and (optionally)
       transmitted as UDP messages to one or two syslog servers.

       For more information about system logging, refer to:
       •   System logging (syslog) on page 1-59 describes the system logging feature.
       •   Syslog message formats on page 4-73 describes the format and content of syslog event
           messages.
       •   Task 10: Configuring syslog on page 6-91 describes the system logging configuration
           procedure.

       To enable system logging, select menu option Management, Syslog, Syslog
       configuration. The Syslog Configuration page is displayed (Figure 164). Set the Syslog
       State attribute to ‘Enabled’.

       To view the log, select menu option Management, Syslog. The local log is displayed
       (Figure 188).

Disabling and enabling the wireless interface

       This section describes how to disable wireless transmission (prevent antenna radiation)
       and enable wireless transmission (allow antenna radiation).



Disabling wireless transmission
       This is necessary when maintenance work is needed near the antenna. To disable wireless
       transmission, select menu option Configuration. The System Configuration page is
       displayed (Figure 172). Select Mute Transmitter. The Transmitter attribute value
       changes to ‘Muted’.



         Wireless transmission can also be disabled from the Protection Configuration page
         (Figure 136), for both protected and unprotected links.



         In a 1+1 Hot Standby link, disable protection switchover before disabling wireless
         transmission (see Enabling and disabling fault protection on page 7-43). Otherwise, a
         switchover to the inactive unit may occur when the wireless interface is muted. Re-enable
         protection switchover when wireless transmission is re-enabled.



Enabling wireless transmission
       This is necessary to restart the link when maintenance work is complete. To enable
       wireless transmission, select menu option Configuration. The System Configuration page
       is displayed (Figure 189). Select Enable Transmitter. The Transmitter attribute value
       changes to ‘Enabled’.
       Wireless transmission can also be enabled from the Protection Configuration page (Figure
       136), for both 1+1 Hot Standby and unprotected links.

       This page shows the same view of the link from the web interface of any of the four units.
       The positions of the units on the page are determined by their Tx Hi/Lo and
       Primary/Secondary mode settings. The symbols, text and their meanings are shown in
       Table 258.

                                              Each end of the link is identified by a Site Name.
                                              The Site Name is configured using the Install
                                              Wizard or can be updated using the Configuration
                                              page. At a given end, it is recommended that the
                                              Site Name is configured to the same name for
                                              both Primary and Secondary CMUs.

                                              The end which is configured with the transmit
                                              frequency on the high side of the FDD frequency
                                              plan (Tx Hi) is always shown on the left.
                                              If no Site Name has been configured at either
                                              end, the labels will indicate Tx Hi or Tx Lo.

                                              The CMU configured as Primary is the preferred
                                              unit in that it will become the active unit unless it
                                              is faulty. In the case where the two ODUs at an
                                              end have a different path loss, for example where
                                              they are coupled to a common antenna using an
                                              asymmetric coupler mounting kit (see Coupler
                                              mounting kits on page 1-30) , the CMU configured
                                              as Primary should be connected to the RFU with
                                              the lowest path loss.
                                              For IRFUs, the CMU configured as Primary
                                              should always be connected to the left hand
                                              transceiver.

 Symbols or text              Meaning

                              The CMU configured as Secondary will become
                              the inactive unit unless the Primary unit develops
                              a fault. In the case where the two ODUs at an end
                              have a different path loss, for example where they
                              are coupled to a common antenna using an
                              Asymmetric Coupler Mounting Kit (see Coupler

                              as Secondary should be connected to the RFU
                              with the highest path loss.
                              For IRFUs, the CMU configured as Secondary
                              should always be connected to the right hand

                              These units are active (Tx Hi and Tx Lo). Active
                              units are the units which radiate at the antenna
                              and forward traffic between the wireless interface
                              and the Ethernet ports. The black line represents
                              the link between active units.

                              These units are inactive (Tx Hi and Tx Lo).
                              Inactive units remain on standby waiting to take
                              over the active role in case of a fault. They do not
                              radiate or forward traffic between the Wireless
                              interface and the Ethernet ports.

                              These units are not protecting the active unit.
                              They may be faulty or configured in a way which
                              is not protecting the active unit. Roll the mouse
                              over the icon to see the reason why the unit is not
                              protecting.

                              The unit being browsed cannot communicate with
                              a unit identified in this way. This may be because
                              the unit is powered down or the protection cable
                              is not connected.
                              If both units at the end remote from the end being
                              managed are gray, this indicates that the wireless
                              link is down.

                                                managed protection switch can still be executed.




Using the Protected Link page

       Viewing system status
       To view the System Status page for an active, inactive or faulty unit, click on the icon. See
       Viewing the system status on page 7-7.


       Viewing alarms and faults
       If the alarm warning triangle is displayed on the menu bar, click on it to view the
       outstanding alarm list for the unit that currently provides the management interface. See
       Viewing the system summary on page 7-6 and Managing alarms on page 7-15.

       Rolling the cursor over a red icon causes a list of protection faults for that unit to be
       displayed.


       Viewing the status of mismatched neighbors
       Certain configuration attributes must be the same on neighbors in order for an inactive
       unit to protect an active unit. If the inactive unit does not match, it will be shown in red on
       the Protected Link page and the reason will be ‘Configuration not protecting’. To
       determine which attribute is not matched, select the Home page of the misconfigured unit.
       If the inactive unit is not protecting the active unit for any reason (for example, it is
       misconfigured or has a fault) a summary attribute called protectionAvailabilityStatus will
       be displayed on the Home page of both the active and inactive unit. On the active unit it
       will have the value of ‘Not Protected’. On the inactive unit it will have the value of ‘Not
       Protecting’.

Forcing protection switches
       Protection switches may be forced for a variety of reasons, for example:
       •     During maintenance operations.
       •     During software or hardware upgrades.
       •     To investigate error conditions that have not resulted in a protection switch.
       •     To confirm that the inactive unit remains fully functional.



           To avoid loss of service, force protection switches only if link planning indicates that the
           unit(s) are capable of operating a satisfactory link.

       After a protection switch has been initiated, if work is to be carried out on the newly
       inactive unit, ensure that fault protection is temporarily disabled until the activity is
       completed.
       To force protection switches, click on the buttons on the Protected Link page. The text in
       the buttons varies depending upon which units are active and which are inactive.

Enabling and disabling fault protection
       The Protected Link page can be used to enable or disable fault protection switching during
       the operation of the link. When switching is disabled, a fault will not cause a protection
       switch, but the user may still manually switch. This feature is intended to be used during
       maintenance actions where the user does not wish faults to change which CMU/RFU is
       active.



        This may be a required state with Spatial Diversity to prevent transmission through a
        non-compliant diverse antenna.

       Enable and disable fault protection using the buttons on the Protected Link page. The text
       in the buttons varies depending upon which units are active and which are inactive.


       Example
       For example, one possible disabling and enabling sequence is as follows:

Replacing a CMU in a 1+1 Hot Standby link

       Pre-configuring the replacement CMU
       Before delivering the replacement CMU to the PTP 800 site, ensure that it is ready to
       operate in the link. Proceed as follows:

         1    Connect the replacement CMU to a management PC and open the web interface.

         2    Use the latest saved configuration file from the faulty CMU to configure the
              replacement CMU. For instructions, refer to Restoring the system configuration on
              page 7-67.



                Ensure that the replacement CMU has the same licensed capabilities as the
                faulty CMU. If necessary, obtain and install a new license key.

                If a saved configuration file is not available, use the web interface to configure
                the replacement CMU as described in Chapter 6: Configuration and
                alignment.

         3    If the installation includes a Fiber-Y interface, select menu option System,
              Configuration, Protection and confirm that Fiber Y is set to ‘Enabled’.



                Ensure this is done before replacing the CMU on site. If the Fiber-Y cable is
                connected to the replacement CMU whilst Fiber-Y is 'Disabled', the Ethernet
                connection will drop.

         4    Select menu option System, Software Upgrade. The Software Upgrade page is
              displayed.

         5    Make sure that the application software version is the same as the software
              installed on the other units in the link.

         6    If Fiber-Y is enabled, make sure that:
                  Application Software version is 800-04-00 or higher version.
                  Boot Software is BOOT-03-00 or higher version.

                  Recovery software is RECOVERY-04-00 or higher version
              If the requirements for boot or recovery are not met, contact customer support.

       Replacing the CMU on site
       To replace the CMU on site, proceed as follows:

         1    Identify the faulty CMU. The 1+1 LED state should be orange blink to indicate
              that the CMU is faulty and not protecting.

         2    Remove power cable from the faulty CMU, disconnect all other interface cables,
              then remove the CMU.

         3    Mount the replacement CMU.



                If the installation includes a Fiber-Y interface, the CMU must have Fiber-Y
                enabled before executing the remaining steps.

         4    Connect interface cables to the replacement CMU (Figure 4), ensuring the
              power cable is connected last:

                  a. Connect IF cable to RFU connector.
                  b. If configured for out-of-band management, connect the CMU
                     Management port to the appropriate CMU port of the 1+1 protection
                     splitter.
                  c. Connect copper data cable (if used) to copper Data port.
                  d. Connect SFP module and fiber cable (if used) to Fiber SFP port.

                  e. Connect ground cable to ground stud.
                  f.   Connect power cable to -48 V DC power socket and power up.

         5    After approximately 2 minutes from powering up, check that the Management
              port 1+1 LED state is either green steady (CMU is active) or green blink (CMU
              is inactive). If it is in any other state, confirm that the correct CMU has been
              replaced and re-check the CMU configuration. See Table 4 for details of CMU
              LED states.

       Making the Primary unit the active unit
       If the replacement unit is configured as Primary, you may wish to make this the active
       unit, for example, if it is connected to the lower loss arm of an asymmetric coupler. This
       can be done by forcing a protection switch, see Managing 1+1 Hot Standby links on page
       7-33. Alternatively, the CMU configured as Secondary may be configured with the Primary
       Recovery feature enabled, in which case there will be an automatic protection switch
       making the Primary CMU active once the Primary unit has been continually free of faults
       for a configurable period of time. See Configuring 1+1 Hot Standby links on page 6-51.

Managing security

       This section describes how to manage security features such as FIPS 140-2 mode and AES
       encryption in operational PTP 800 links.



Exiting FIPS 140-2 mode
       To exit from the FIPS 140-2 mode, do one of the following:
       •     Load a PTP 800 license key that has FIPS operation disabled and reboot. Refer to Task
             3: Installing license keys on page 6-18.
       •     Load PTP 800 software that is not FIPS-validated and reboot. Refer to Task 4:
             Upgrading software version on page 6-22.



           The critical security parameters (CSPs) are zeroized when the unit is no longer FIPS 140-
           2 Capable.



Zeroizing critical security parameters
       Critical security parameters (CSPs) are as follows:
       •     Key of keys.
       •     AES encryption keys for the wireless interface.
       •     Private key for the HTTPS/TLS interface.
       •     Entropy value for the HTTPS/TLS interface.
       •     User account passwords for the web-based interface.

       To zeroize the CSPs, select option Security, Zeroize CSPs and then Select Zeroize CSPs
       and Reboot Wireless Unit. Confirm the reboot. Alternatively, select the Zeroize CSPs
       option in Recovery mode.

Displaying login information
       To display details of the most recent successful login, and the most recent unsuccessful
       login attempt, for each user of the web-based interface, select menu option Management,
       Web, Login Information. The Login Information page is displayed (Figure 191).

       Figure 191 Login Information page




Disabling AES encryption
       Perform this task to disable the encryption of data transmitted over the PTP 800 bridge.
       For more information on AES encryption, see AES license on page 1-60
       This procedure must be repeated at both ends of the link.



        If AES encryption is disabled at one end of the link, it must also be disabled at the other
        end of the link, otherwise the link will not work.


       Unprotected link
       To disable AES encryption for an unprotected link, proceed as follows:

         1    Select menu option Configuration. The System Configuration page is displayed
              (Figure 172).

         2    Set the Encryption Algorithm attribute to ‘None’.

         3    Select Submit Updated System Configuration. The Configuration Change
              Reboot dialog is displayed.



7-52                                                                  phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

         4    Select Reboot Wireless Unit. The Reboot Confirmation dialog is displayed.

         5    Select OK. The reboot progress message is displayed. On completion, the unit
              restarts with AES encryption disabled.




       1+1 Hot Standby link
       To disable AES encryption for a 1+1 Hot Standby link, proceed as follows:

         1    If link planning indicates that the inactive units are not able to operate a link of
              satisfactory quality, force a protection switch at one end of the wireless link.

         2    Disable fault protection switching for all PTP 800 units, as described in Enabling
              and disabling fault protection on page 7-43.

         3    Disable AES Encryption for both inactive PTP 800 units as defined above for
              unprotected links.

         4    Force a simultaneous protection switch at both ends of the wireless link, as
              described in Forcing protection switches on page 7-37. Check that the link is
              operating correctly without encryption.

         5    Disable AES Encryption for both newly inactive PTP 800 units as defined in the
              above procedure for unprotected links.

         6    Force a simultaneous protection switch at both ends of the wireless link, as
              described in Forcing protection switches on page 7-37. Check that the link is
              operating correctly without encryption.

         7    If a protection switch was forced at one end of the link (Step 1) force a
              protection switch at the other end of the link so that the link is operated by the
              two primary units.

         8    Re-enable protection switching for all PTP 800 units, as described in Enabling
              and disabling fault protection on page 7-43.




Changing AES encryption keys
       Perform this task to update the encryption key used for data transmitted over the PTP 800
       bridge. For more information on AES encryption, see AES license on page 1-60
       This procedure must be repeated at both ends of the link.



        If the AES encryption key is changed at one end of the link, it must also be changed to the
        same value at the other end of the link, otherwise the link will not work.



phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)                                                                        7-53
Managing security                                                              Chapter 7: Operation



       Unprotected link
       To change the AES encryption key for an unprotected link, proceed as follows:

         1    Select menu option Configuration. The System Configuration page is displayed
              (Figure 172).

         2    If the encryption attributes are not displayed, or if the Encryption Key attribute
              is set to ‘None’, see Configuring AES encryption on page 6-26.

         3    Update the Encryption Key attribute.

         4    Select Submit Updated System Configuration. The Configuration Change
              Reboot dialog is displayed.

         5    Select Reboot Wireless Unit. The Reboot Confirmation dialog is displayed.

         6    Select OK. The reboot progress message is displayed. On completion, the unit
              restarts with AES encryption enabled, using the new key.


       1+1 Hot Standby link
       This procedure must be performed for all units. When upgrading each pair of units, then
       either the web interface can be opened simultaneously for each CMU, or the remote
       system can be configured and then the local system configured.



        Before changing encryption keys, check that no alarms are outstanding for the units to be
        upgraded. See Managing alarms on page 7-15.
        It is expected that this procedure will normally take place from an initial status of
        Primary to Primary, especially for an asymmetric coupler or for a protected antenna when
        the inactive unit has a lower capacity.

       To change the AES encryption key for a 1+1 Hot Standby link, proceed as follows:

         1    Disable local and remote protection switching, as described in Enabling and
              disabling fault protection on page 7-43.

         2    Force a protection switch at the local end of the wireless link, as described in
              Forcing protection switches on page 7-37, so that the link is operating between
              a primary and a secondary unit.

         3    Change AES Encryption keys for both inactive PTP 800 units, as defined in
              Unprotected link on page 7-54.



                If an incorrect encryption key is entered at the remote end, then it may be
                necessary to go to the remote end to correct the encryption key.




7-54                                                                   phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

         4    Force a simultaneous protection switch at both ends of the wireless link, as
              described in Forcing protection switches on page 7-37. Check that the link is
              operating correctly using the new encryption key.

         5    Change AES Encryption keys for both newly inactive PTP 800 units, as defined
              in Unprotected link on page 7-54.

         6    Check the System Status page for encryption alarms (Figure 192). If any are
              displayed, investigate and correct the encryption configuration.

         7    Force a simultaneous protection switch at both ends of the wireless link, as
              described in Forcing protection switches on page 7-37. Check that the link is
              operating correctly using the new encryption keys.

         8    Force a protection switch at the local end of the link, so that the link is running
              Primary to Primary, and check that the link is operating correctly. This confi

  • 3. PTP 800 Series User Guide Important safety information This section describes important safety guidelines that must be observed by personnel installing or operating PTP 800 equipment. To prevent loss of life or physical injury, observe the safety guidelines in this section. Power lines Exercise extreme care when working near power lines. Working at heights Exercise extreme care when working at heights. Grounding and protective earth The outdoor unit (ODU) and compact modem unit (CMU) for the PTP 800 must be properly grounded. It is the user’s responsibility to install the equipment in accordance with national regulations. In the USA, follow Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984 (USA). In Canada, follow Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code. These codes describe correct installation procedures for grounding the ODU, CMU, mast, lead-in wire and discharge unit, size of grounding conductors and connection requirements for grounding electrodes. Other regulations may apply in different countries and therefore it is recommended that installation of the outdoor unit be contracted to a professional installer. The PTP 800 ODU and CMU must be grounded to a protective earth in accordance with the Local Electrical Regulations. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) I
  • 4. Important safety information Electrical safety The power cable connections must meet International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) safety standards. Always power down and unplug the equipment before servicing. When using alternative DC supplies, such as battery-backed DC power source, the supply must be SELV rated. Primary disconnect device The power supply must include a primary disconnect device with appropriate fusing. External cables Safety may be compromised if outdoor rated cables are not used for connections that will be exposed to the weather. RF exposure near the antenna Strong radio frequency (RF) fields will be present close to the antenna when the transmitter is on. Always mute the transmitter before undertaking maintenance activities in front of the antenna. Ensure that people cannot stand or walk in front of the antenna within ± 10 degrees of the antenna axis and within the minimum distances listed in Table 208 (ETSI) or Table 209 (FCC). The minimum distances in these tables have been calculated using worst-case assumptions. Reduced separation distances may be appropriate under some circumstances. Further details are provided in Radiation hazard assessment on page 4-85. Thermal safety The CMU may be hot to the touch when in operation. The CMU must not be operated in ambient temperatures exceeding 40 deg C unless mounted in a Restricted Access Location. For more information, see Maximum operating ambient temperature for the CMU on page 5-76. II phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 46. Overview Chapter 1: Product description The main components are: • Compact modem unit (CMU): The CMU converts data signals between Ethernet frames and a modulated intermediate frequency (IF) carrier. • Outdoor unit (ODU): The ODU converts signals between a modulated intermediate frequency (IF) and radio band frequencies. • Indoor RF unit (IRFU): The IRFU is an alternative to the ODU. It is installed indoors, for easier maintenance and security. • Antennas and couplers: Cambium supplies high performance, low profile antennas for PTP 800 frequency bands in sizes from 0.3 m (1 ft) to 3.7 m (12 ft). These can be mounted directly to the ODUs, or remotely via waveguide. In 1+1 links, ODUs installed at the same end can share an antenna through the use of coupler mounting kits. • Cabling and lightning protection: o ODU platforms: The CMU is connected to the ODU using CNT-400 coaxial cable (IF cable), lightning protection units (LPUs) and grounding cables. In remote mount configurations,. o IRFU platforms: The IRFU is connected to the antenna using flexible waveguide and premium elliptical waveguide. The generic term RFU is used in this user guide (and in the web interface) to include the ODU and IRFU. Link types The PTP 800 supports the following link types: • 1+0 single link: A 1+0 single link transports Ethernet frames between two sites. Each link end has one CMU, one RFU and one antenna. • 1+1 Hot Standby link: A 1+1 Hot Standby link transports Ethernet frames between two sites and provides protection against single point equipment failure. This is achieved by the deployment of extra equipment which can automatically take over the operation of the link in case of equipment failure. Each end of the link requires two CMUs, either one or two antennas and either two ODUs for outdoor deployments or a 1+1 capable IRFU for indoor deployments. A 1+1 Hot Standby Link can also be configured to support Receive Spatial Diversity which requires two antennas at each end of the link. For indoor deployments, a 1+1 Rx SD capable IRFU is required. • 2+0 two links sharing antennas: A 2+0 configuration consists of two 1+0 links between the same two sites, where the antenna at each site is shared between the two 1+0 links. In this user guide and in PTP LINKPlanner, these two links are called link ‘A’ and link ‘B’. Link A and link B must operate on different frequencies and will generally require separate radio licenses. The antennas in a 2+0 link may be single-polar or dual-polar. 1-6 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

CMU description The PTP 800 compact modem unit (CMU) (Figure 3) is mounted indoors and provides the Ethernet interface to the network. It converts the Ethernet frames to a data stream which then modulates an intermediate frequency (IF) signal which is sent to the radio frequency unit (RFU), either an outdoor unit (ODU) or an indoor radio frequency unit (IRFU). In the other direction, the CMU demodulates a similar IF signal from the RFU and reconstructs Ethernet frames to send to the network. Both IF signals are carried over a coaxial IF cable connecting the CMU to the RFU. The CMU also provides power to the ODU and this is also carried over the coaxial cable. The IRFU is powered separately. The CMU is mounted on a shelf, on a wall (using the provided bracket), or in a standard 19 inch rack (using the optional CMU rack mounting kit). It is ideally suited to applications where space is limited. Figure 3 PTP 800 CMU 1-8 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 50. Compact modem unit (CMU) Chapter 1: Product description Interface Function Recovery This switch is used to start the CMU in recovery mode. Recovery mode provides a means to recover from serious configuration errors including lost or forgotten passwords and unknown IP addresses. For more information see Recovery mode on page 1-62. Recovery mode also allows new main application software to be loaded even when the integrity of the existing main application software has been compromised. Data (copper port) This is a 100baseT and 1000baseT Ethernet port, used to connect the CMU to the customer data network. In the ‘in- band’ management mode, the system is managed through the Data port and management traffic is multiplexed with customer traffic. For more information on Ethernet interfaces see Data network specifications on page 4-71. Data (fiber SFP port) This is a standard small form-factor pluggable (SFP) gigabit interface, used to connect the CMU to the customer data network via a fiber-optic module. When a supported SFP module is present and is working, and the fiber carrier is present, the customer traffic network (and in-band management network, if enabled) connects through fiber, and the copper data port is not used. If the fiber link fails or loses the carrier signal, the Ethernet service falls back to the copper LAN connection. The fiber SFP port is a Class 1 laser product, safe under all conditions of normal operation. For more information on Ethernet interfaces see Wireless specifications on page 4-19. -48V DC Power This a socket for connecting the CMU to a standard –48 V dc telecommunications supply, with supply range –40.5 V to –60 V. The 0 V (positive connection) is grounded at the CMU casing, IF cable outer shield and ODU casing. Ground stud This M5 ground stud is used to ground the CMU via the supplied lug. The ground cable is fitted to a low impedance ground point. This protects personnel and equipment from hazardous voltages caused by lightning strikes. For a 1+1 Hot Standby protected link, both CMUs are connected to a common ground. 1-10 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 53. PTP 800 Series User Guide Outdoor unit (ODU) Outdoor unit (ODU) This section describes the PTP 800 ODU and its interfaces. ODU description The PTP 800 outdoor unit (ODU) provides the necessary frequency conversion and amplification of signals which pass between the CMU and antenna. In the transmit direction, the ODU takes the fixed intermediate frequency (IF) signal provided by the CMU and converts and amplifies it to a configured licensed band radio frequency signal for transmission at the antenna. In the receive direction, the ODU provides amplification and down conversion of a licensed band signal received at the antenna interface. The result is a fixed IF signal which is passed to the CMU for demodulation. ODUs are available in all licensed bands supported by PTP 800 (see Supported bands and frequencies on page 1-3 for the full list of supported bands). A given licensed band is generally split into sub-bands where a given sub-band is supported by a pair of ODUs. One ODU is designed to transmit at the high frequency side of the Frequency Division Duplex (FDD), the other at the low frequency side. The ODU transmit and receive frequencies are configurable within a sub-band. The ODU is designed for outdoor operation, either mounting directly to the back of an antenna or mounted separately using a Remote Mount Kit which then connects to the antenna with flexible waveguide. The ODU also provides an interface which allows the installer to monitor the receive signal level when aligning antennas. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-13

  • 58. Indoor RF unit (IRFU) Chapter 1: Product description Indoor RF unit (IRFU) This section describes the PTP 800 IRFU and its interfaces. IRFU description The PTP 800 indoor RF unit (IRFU) (Figure 11) converts signals between a modulated intermediate frequency (IF) and radio band frequencies for transmission over a line-of- sight link. The IRFU can be chosen as an alternative to the ODU to operate with one or two PTP 800 CMUs. Figure 11 Top and front view of IRFU shelf (with single transceiver and waveguide) The PTP 800 IRFU platform supports the licensed bands and frequencies listed in Table 2. The IRFU chassis is designed for mounting in an indoor 19" rack. The 2.77 U height chassis can house one or two field replaceable transceivers, where each transceiver interfaces to a separate CMU via an intermediate frequency coaxial cable, or IF cable. The IRFU also provides either one or two waveguide interfaces for connection to the antenna or antennas. The waveguide interfaces have excellent voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR). This reduces the amplitude of reflected signals passing up the waveguide which could otherwise degrade the quality of the transmitted and received signals. When connected to a suitably low VSWR antenna, this makes the IRFU ideal for operation with a wide range of waveguide lengths. 1-18 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 59. PTP 800 Series User Guide Indoor RF unit (IRFU) Transceivers Each transceiver provides the necessary frequency conversion and amplification of signals which pass between the CMU and antenna. In the transmit direction, a transceiver up-converts and amplifies the fixed intermediate frequency (IF) signal received from the CMU resulting in a configured licensed band radio frequency signal transmitted at the waveguide interface. In the receive direction, a transceiver provides low noise amplification and down-conversion of the licensed band signal received at the waveguide interface. The result is a fixed IF signal which is passed to the CMU for demodulation. Each transceiver is powered via its own dedicated power socket. Cambium Networks do not provide the power supply, but they do provide the power connector. For power supply requirements, please see IRFU specifications on page 4-8. To prevent grounding issues with the CMU, only a -48 V dc power supply is supported. Each transceiver is cooled by its own field replaceable fan assembly. Each fan assembly contains two fans which are automatically controlled by the transceiver which responds to changes in the temperature of its power amplifier. As an aid to aligning antennas, the IRFU provides an interface per transceiver for monitoring the strength of the received signal level. Branching unit The transceivers connect to the waveguide interfaces via the IRFU branching unit. The branching unit is an integral part of the IRFU and is situated at the back of the chassis. The branching unit provides the necessary coupling and filtering and also the necessary isolation between transceivers. Although the branching unit is not field replaceable, the transmit and receive filters within the branching unit are both field replaceable. IRFU availability IRFUs are available at 6 GHz and 11 GHz. The 6 GHz IRFU support the L6 and U6 bands of both FCC and Industry Canada regulations. The FCC 7 GHz band is also supported by this IRFU. The 11 GHz IRFU supports the 11 GHz band for both FCC and Industry Canada regulations. Although the transceivers are designed to cover the entire frequency range of a given band, the branching unit is factory tuned for a specific transmit frequency and a specific receive frequency. The transmit frequency and receive frequency must therefore be specified when ordering an IRFU. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-19

This option provides monitored hot standby (MHSB) operation, which allows the link to continue to operate in the event of single point equipment failure. Both transceivers are capable of receiving and transmitting, but the transmission from only one of the transceivers is routed to the waveguide interface at any one time. This is achieved with an RF switch which is an integral component of the IRFU. The other transceiver remains on standby waiting to take over in case of equipment failure. This option is available with equal or unequal receive coupling, the latter providing a better radio link budget for the primary transceiver, which is the preferred transceiver.

As well as providing MHSB operation in the event of single point equipment failure, it also provides receive spatial diversity by providing a second waveguide interface which connects to a diverse antenna. The IRFU will only radiate from the main waveguide interface (left hand viewed from the front). Although both transceivers are capable of transmitting, the transmission from only one of the transceivers is routed to the main waveguide interface at any one time. This is achieved with an RF switch incorporated within the IRFU. In the receive direction, the left hand transceiver will receive from the left hand (or main) waveguide interface and the right hand transceiver will receive from the right hand (or diverse) waveguide interface.

  • 69. PTP 800 Series User Guide Antennas and couplers Antenna polarization Antennas can be provided as single polar or dual polar: • Single polar : A single polar antenna provides a single interface to the RFU. The antennas are normally supplied with vertical polarization. For horizontal polarization, the antennas can be modified by the user using the instructions provided. Single polar antennas can be provided with a direct mount interface or a waveguide interface. • Dual polar: Dual polar antennas provide two interfaces, one with vertical polarization and one with horizontal polarization. This allows two links connecting the same two sites to share antennas, the two links operating on opposite polarizations. Dual Polar antennas provide a waveguide interface only. Remote mounting kits (RMKs) Applies to ODU deployments only. An RMK is used in an ODU (not IRFU) remote mount configurations to connect the ODU (or coupler) to the antenna via a flexible waveguide. Direct mount configurations do not require RMKs. The RMK has the following features: • A clamp for attaching the RMK to a monopole. • A cylindrical transition (Figure 22) onto which the ODU mounts. • A waveguide interface transition (Figure 23) for connection to the antenna via a flexible waveguide. The choice of RMK depends upon the frequency variant. The 11 GHz RMK is always used with a tapered transition between the antenna and the flexible waveguide. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-29

Lightning protection (ODU platforms only) The PTP 800 has been tested for compliance to the EMC immunity specifications identified in EMC immunity compliance on page 4-81. The ODUs for the PTP 800 are fitted with surge limiting circuits and other features to minimize the risk of damage due to nearby lightning strikes. To be fully effective, these standard features require some additional equipment to be configured as part of the system installation. The PTP 800 Series is not designed to survive direct lightning strikes. For this reason the antenna and ODU should not be installed at the highest point in a localized area. See Grounding and lightning protection on page 2-7. RFU to CMU connections The RFU is connected to the LPUs and CMU using CNT-400 coaxial cable (IF cable). CMU to network connections The CMU is connected to network equipment using either a copper data port (100baseT or 1000baseT Ethernet) or a fiber interface (1000BaseSX or 1000BaseLX).

  • 78. Wireless operation Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation This section describes how the PTP 800 wireless link is operated, including modulation modes, power control and security. Channel bandwidth The PTP 800 wireless link supports the following channel bandwidths: • 7 MHz • 10 MHz • 13.75 MHz • 14 MHz • 20 MHz • 27.5 MHz • 28 MHz • 29.65 MHz • 30 MHz • 40 MHz • 50 MHz • 55 MHz • 56 MHz • 80 MHz. The available selection of channel bandwidths varies depending on band and region. Modulation modes The PTP 800 wireless link operates using single carrier modulation with the following fixed modulation modes: • QPSK • 8PSK • 16QAM • 32QAM • 64QAM • 128QAM 1-38 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 79. PTP 800 Series User Guide Wireless operation • 256QAM The available selection of modulation modes varies depending on band, region and channel bandwidth. PTP 800 uses Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) forward error correction (FEC) coding. The code rate is calculated as the ratio between the un-coded block size and the coded block size. FEC code rate in PTP 800 varies between 0.76 and 0.94 depending on channel bandwidth and modulation mode. For more information, see Capacity, transmit power and sensitivity on page 4-22. Adaptive coding and modulation PTP 800 supports both Fixed Modulation and Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM) modes. In ACM mode, the PTP 800 selects the modulation mode according to the quality of the received signal. The selection criterion is to provide the highest link capacity that can be achieved while keeping the communication error free. When compared with Fixed Modulation operation, ACM can increase either link availability, or average wireless link capacity, or both. ODU-B offers superior ACM characteristics to ODU-A. Automatic transmitter power control PTP 800 provides closed-loop automatic transmitter power control (ATPC). ATPC avoids overload of the receivers in links with low link loss by automatically adjusting transmitter power. The ATPC threshold is –40 dBm received power. ATPC has no effect in links where the received power is lower than the threshold. Automatic adjustment of the transmitter can be enabled or disabled using the Automatic Transmitter Power Control attribute on the Configuration page of the web-based interface. This attribute must have the same setting at both ends of the link. In some regions ATPC is a regulatory requirement and in these cases ATPC cannot be disabled. The power control loop compensates for slow variations in received power and does not respond to fast fading that occurs in multipath channels. In addition to its main function, ATPC includes a mechanism protecting against a lock up scenario. The mechanism is active regardless of the received power. This lock up occurs when the configured maximum transmit power causes the received power at both ends of the link to be too high to allow correct signal demodulation. In this situation, no communication can be established in either direction, causing the radios to wait forever for the remote end to appear. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-39
  • 80. Wireless operation Chapter 1: Product description The protection mechanism works as follows. Upon the link dropping for more than 10 seconds, ATPC drops the maximum transmit power of the end which has the lowest transmit frequency by 15 dB. This ensures the link will come up even if the maximum transmit power is set incorrectly. The delay prevents this mechanism from being triggered when the link drops briefly due to severe fading. Maximum receive power The maximum receive power is the maximum power at which a PTP 800 link should be operated to maintain error free communication. This maximum receive power for normal operation is -35 dBm. Automatic transmitter power control, if enabled, will reduce the installation receive level to a -40 dBm operating level if there is sufficient dynamic range available in the maximum transmit power. For example, a link installed at -35 dBm with a maximum transmit power set to at least 5 dB above the minimum power level will successfully operate at -40 dBm. Links operating without ATPC, or with less than 5 dB available dynamic range should ensure that the normal operating level does not exceed -35 dBm. On very short links it may be necessary to use a fixed waveguide attenuator, which will require the use of a remote mount antenna, to keep the maximum receive power at an acceptable level. Maximum transmit power Maximum transmit power is the maximum power that the PTP 800 is permitted to generate at the waveguide interface assuming that ATPC is disabled, or the link loss is high enough such that ATPC is not activated. The equipment limit for maximum transmit power is defined by modulation mode, band, channel bandwidth and standards body or region. The spectrum license limit is determined by the maximum EIRP permitted by the individual license, the antenna gain and feeder loss. The maximum transmit power that can be configured for PTP 800 is limited by the more restrictive of the equipment limit and the spectrum license limit. Maximum transmit power defaults to the maximum permitted as described above, but can be reduced if necessary using Step 3 of the Installation Wizard, or the Configuration page of the web-based interface. Security PTP 800 provides optional 128-bit and 256-bit encryption using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). The implementation in PTP 800 has been validated against Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 197 (FIPS-197) in the Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP) of the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). 1-40 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 82. Ethernet bridging Chapter 1: Product description Ethernet bridging This section describes how the PTP 800 controls Ethernet data, in both the customer data network and the system management network. Customer network Transparent Ethernet service The PTP 800 Series provides an Ethernet service between the data port at a local CMU and the data port at an associated remote CMU. The Ethernet service is based on conventional layer two transparent bridging, and is equivalent to the Ethernet Private Line (EPL) service defined by the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF). The service is transparent to untagged frames, standard VLAN frames, priority-tagged frames, provider bridged frames, and provider backbone bridged frames. In each case, the service preserves MAC addresses, VLAN ID, Ethernet priority and Ethernet payload in the forwarded frame. The maximum frame size for bridged frames in the customer network is 9600 octets. Layer two control protocols The PTP 800 Series is transparent to layer two control protocols (L2CP) including: • Spanning tree protocol (STP), rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP) • Multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP) • Link aggregation control protocol (LACP) • Link OAM, IEEE 802.3ah • Port authentication, IEEE 802.1X • Ethernet local management interface (E-LMI), ITU-T Q.933. • Link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) • Multiple registration protocol (MRP) • Generic attribute registration protocol (GARP) PTP 800 handles IEEE 802.3 Pause frames as a special case; each CMU can be configured to either forward (tunnel) or discard Pause frames received at the Data port. PTP 800 discards all Pause frames received at the Management port. The PTP 800 Series does not generate or respond to any L2CP traffic. 1-42 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 83. PTP 800 Series User Guide Ethernet bridging Quality of service for bridged Ethernet traffic The PTP 800 Series supports eight traffic queues for Ethernet frames waiting for transmission over the wireless link. Ethernet frames are classified by inspection of the Ethernet destination address, the Ethernet priority code point in the outermost VLAN tag, the Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) in an IPv4 or IPv6 header, or the Traffic Class in an MPLS header. PTP 800 provides a configurable mapping between Ethernet, IP or MPLS priority and transmission queue, together with a simple way to restore a default mapping based on the recommended default in IEEE 802.1Q-2005. Untagged frames, or frames with an unknown network layer protocol, can be separately classified. Scheduling for transmission over the wireless link is by strict priority. In other words, a frame at the head of a given queue is transmitted only when all higher priority queues are empty. Fragmentation The PTP 800 Series minimizes latency and jitter for high-priority Ethernet traffic by fragmenting Ethernet frames before transmission over the wireless link. The fragment size is selected automatically according to channel bandwidth and modulation mode of the wireless link. Fragments are reassembled on reception, and incomplete Ethernet frames are discarded. Traffic is not fragmented in the highest priority traffic class. Management network IP interface Each PTP 800 CMU contains an embedded management agent with a single IP interface. Network management communication is exclusively based on IP and associated higher layer transport and application protocols. The default IP address of the management agent is 169.254.1.1. The PTP 800 does not require use of supplementary serial interfaces. In a 1+1 protection scheme, each CMU contains a separate management agent. MAC address The management agent end-station MAC address is recorded on the underside of the enclosure. The MAC address is not configurable by the user. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-43
  • 84. Ethernet bridging Chapter 1: Product description VLAN membership The management agent can be configured to transmit and receive either untagged, priority-tagged, C-tagged (IEEE 802.1Q) or S-tagged (IEEE 801.ad) frames. S-tagged frames must be single tagged, in other words, an S-tag with no encapsulated C-tag. The VLAN ID can be 0 (priority tagged) or in the range 1 to 4094. Out-of-band management PTP 800 supports an end-to-end out-of-band management mode in which the management agent can be reached from the management port at the local CMU, and (assuming that the wireless link is established) the management port at the remote CMU. This management mode allows communication from the CMU management port to Ethernet end stations reached through the remote CMU, supporting construction of an extended management network that is isolated from the customer network. End-to-end out-of-band management is possible only when the network management mode is configured to “out-of-band” at every CMU. Out-of-band quality of service Out-of-band management traffic is forwarded over the wireless link using a dedicated channel. The management channel represents a single traffic class, and the same quality of service is afforded to all management frames. Traffic in the management channel is fragmented for transmission over the wireless link to minimize the jitter imposed on high priority traffic in the customer network. The management channel has higher priority than traffic in the customer network, subject to a configurable committed information rate (CIR) with a range between 200 Kbit/s and 2 Mbps. Committed capacity that remains unused by management traffic is available for customer traffic. Out-of-band local management The out-of-band local management mode is similar to the standard out-of-band mode, except that management frames are not forwarded over the wireless link. Connection to the management agent is solely through the management port of the local CMU. The management channel CIR control is disabled in out-of-band local mode. Out-of-band local management is the default management mode. If the management port is not accessible remotely, this mode should be changed to permit remote management. 1-44 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 85. PTP 800 Series User Guide Ethernet bridging In-band management In the in-band management mode, the management agent can be reached from the data port at the local CMU, and (assuming that the wireless link is established) the data port at the remote CMU. In this mode, the management port is disabled. Management frames in the customer network are processed by the management agent if (a) destination MAC address in the frame matches the CMU MAC address, and (b) the VLAN ID in the frame matches the VLAN configuration of the management agent. If Local Packet Filtering is enabled, unicast frames forwarded to the management agent are filtered, that is, not forwarded in the customer network. In-band quality of service The CMU may be configured to tag the Ethernet frames generated by its management agent. When configured for In Band Management, these frames are assigned to a queue based on the priority code point in the same way as customer traffic. Source address learning If Local Packet Filtering is enabled, the management agent learns the location of end stations from the source addresses in received management frames. The agent filters transmitted management frames to ensure that the frame is transmitted at the Ethernet (data or management) port, or over the wireless link as appropriate. If the end station address is unknown, then management traffic is transmitted at the Ethernet port and over the wireless link. In out-of-band local management mode, management frames are not transmitted over the wireless link, and so address learning is not active. Wireless link down alert The PTP 800 Series can be configured to alert a ‘loss of link’ to the connected network equipment. It does this by means of a brief disconnection of the copper data port or fiber data port. When the PTP 800 Series is configured for out-of-band operation, it also briefly disconnects the management port. Ethernet disconnection typically occurs within 50 ms of detection of link failure. The alert is triggered by any condition which prevents the link from forwarding traffic in one or both link directions. Examples include a deep wireless fade, equipment failure such as an RFU failure, and Ethernet cable disconnection. In 1+1 Hot Standby links, the alert will only be triggered if a protection switch does not resolve the failure condition, for example if both sets of equipment at an end exhibit a fault or if there is a deep wireless fade. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-45
  • 86. Ethernet bridging Chapter 1: Product description The wireless link down alert can be deployed in networks which provide alternative traffic routes in the event of failure. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Ethernet Automatic Protection Switching (EAPS) are two protocols which are commonly deployed in such complex networks and both react to the wireless link down alert. Protocol model Ethernet bridging behavior at each end of the wireless link is equivalent to a three-port, managed, transparent MAC bridge where the three ports are: • Ethernet Management Port • Ethernet Data Port • Wireless Port Frames are transmitted at the Wireless port over a proprietary point-to-point circuit-mode link layer between ends of the PTP 800 link. For a single CMU configuration or the active CMU in a 1+1 Hot Standby configuration, Ethernet frames received at the data or management ports, or generated internally within the management agent, are encapsulated within a lightweight MAC layer for transmission over the wireless link. For the inactive CMU at a protected end no traffic is transmitted over the wireless link. Any management traffic generated is transmitted towards the management port (for out- of-band management) or the traffic port (for in-band management). Forwarding behavior In out-of-band local mode (Figure 29) and out-of-band mode (Figure 30), the management network (shown in red) is isolated from the customer data network (shown in blue). In out- of-band mode, the management network is isolated from the customer data at the wireless port by use of a separate service access point and associated dedicated logical channel. Ethernet frames will not leak between management and data networks, even in the presence of configuration errors. In in-band mode (Figure 31), the management and customer data networks are not isolated, and the Management port is not used. 1-46 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 91. PTP 800 Series User Guide System management System management This section introduces the PTP 800 management system, including the web interface, installation, configuration, alerts and upgrades. Management agent PTP 800 equipment is managed through an embedded management agent. Management workstations, network management systems or PCs can be connected to this agent using an in-band mode, or a choice of two out-of-band modes. These modes are described in detail in Management network on page 1-43. The management agent supports the following interfaces: • Hyper text transfer protocol (HTTP) • HTTP over transport layer security (HTTPS/TLS) • RADIUS authentication • Simple network management protocol (SNMP) • Simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) • Simple network time protocol (SNTP) • System logging (syslog) Web server The PTP 800 management agent contains a web server. The web server supports the HTTP and HTTPS/TLS interfaces. Operation of HTTPS/TLS is enabled by purchase of an optional AES upgrade as described in Task 3: Installing license keys on page 6-18. Web-based management offers a convenient way to manage the PTP 800 equipment from a locally connected computer or from a network management workstation connected through a management network, without requiring any special management software. The web-based interfaces are the only interfaces supported for system installation, and for the majority of configuration management tasks. Transport layer security The HTTPS/TLS interface provides the same set of web-pages as the HTTP interface, but allows HTTP traffic to be encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). PTP 800 uses AES encryption for HTTPS/TLS. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-51
  • 92. System management Chapter 1: Product description HTTPS/TLS requires installation of a private key and a public key certificate where the common name of the subject in the public key certificate is the IP address or host name of the PTP 800 unit. HTTPS/TLS operation is configured through the web-based interfaces using the Security Wizard. Details of the security material needed for HTTPS/TLS are provided in Security planning on page 2-22. The PTP 800 has no default public key certificate, and Cambium is not able to generate private keys or public key certificates for specific network applications. User account management PTP 800 allows a network operator to configure a policy for login attempts, the period of validity of passwords and the action taken on expiry of passwords. See Configuring local user accounts on page 6-39 for further details. Identity-based user accounts The PTP 800 web-based interface provides two methods of authenticating users: • Role-based user authentication allows the user, on entry of a valid password, to access all configuration capabilities and controls. This is the default method. • Identity-based user authentication supports up to 10 users with individual usernames and passwords. When identity-based user accounts are enabled, a security officer can define from one to ten user accounts, each of which may have one of the three possible roles: • Security officer. • System administrator. • Read only. Identity-based user accounts are enabled in the Local User Accounts page of the web- based interface. Password complexity PTP 800 allows a network operator to enforce a configurable policy for password complexity. Password complexity configuration additionally allows a pre-determined best practice configuration to be set. See Configuring local user accounts on page 6-39 for further details. 1-52 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 93. PTP 800 Series User Guide System management Installation wizard The web-based interface includes an Installation wizard. This feature simplifies the process of entering initial configuration details, setting the system into alignment mode, achieving the lowest possible link loss through correct antenna alignment, and reporting on the performance of the installed link. The process handles the important configuration settings that must be set to comply with individual license conditions. These important settings are not normally modified in an operating link, and cannot be changed in PTP 800 except through use of the Installation wizard. Configuration pages The web-based interface includes a number of configuration pages. These pages allow for modification of the system configuration of an installed link. In general, configuration changes can be completed without a reboot. Configuration pages include controls relating to the management agent IP interface, the Ethernet interfaces, quality of service at the wireless interface, security passwords and AES keys. RADIUS authentication PTP 800 supports remote authentication for users of the web interface using the Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) or Microsoft CHAP version 2 (MS-CHAPv2) over the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS). PTP 800 supports connections to primary and secondary RADIUS servers. The RADIUS interface is configured through the RADIUS Authentication page of the web-based interfaces. PTP 800 RADIUS supports the standard Service Type attribute to indicate authentication roles of System Administrator and Read Only together with a vendor specific attribute to indicate authentication roles of Security Officer, System Administrator, and Read Only. Remote authentication can be used in addition to local authentication, or can be used as a replacement for local authentication. If remote and local authentications are used together, PTP 800 checks log in attempts against locally stored user credentials before submitting a challenge and response for remote authentication. Remote authentication is not attempted if the username and password match locally stored credentials. RADIUS is only available when PTP 800 is configured for Identity-based User Accounts. For more information, refer to Planning for RADIUS operation on page 2-28. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-53
  • 94. System management Chapter 1: Product description Email alerts The management agent can be configured to generate alerts by electronic mail when any of the following events occur: • Wireless link up • Wireless link down • Data port up • Data port down • Management port up • Management port down • Link name mismatch • Alignment mode • Unit out of calibration • Encryption enabled mismatch • Data port disabled warning • Data port fiber status • Data port configuration mismatch • SNTP sync • Management port disabled warning • RFU status • Management port configuration mismatch • Wireless link status • Protection interface status Email alerts are described in Managing alarms and events on page 7-15. SNMP The management agent supports fault and performance management by means of an SNMP interface. The management agent is compatible with SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c, using the following MIBs: • PTP 800 enterprise MIB • The system group and the interfaces group from MIB-II, RFC-1213 • The interfaces group and the ifXTable from RFC-2233 • The dot1dBase group and the dot1dBasePortTable group from the Bridge MIB, RFC- 1493. 1-54 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 95. PTP 800 Series User Guide System management The PTP 800 enterprise MIB is available for download in the application software package from the support web page (see Contacting Cambium Networks on page 2). Further details of the standard SNMP MIB objects supported by PTP 800 are provided in Standard SNMP MIBs on page 4-76. SNMP must be enabled for use by means of the SNMP State attribute in the web-based interface. Activation of SNMP in PTP 800 requires a reboot of the CMU. The web-based interface must be used to configure the destination IP address for SNMP notifications, and to enable or disable generation of each supported SNMP notification. Supported notifications are as follows: • Cold start • Link up • Link down • Link name mismatch • Alignment mode • Unit out of calibration • Encryption enabled mismatch • Data port disabled warning • Data port fiber status • Data port configuration mismatch • SNTP sync • Management port disabled warning • RFU status • Management port configuration mismatch • Wireless link status • Protection interface status • Wireless receive status • Licensed transmit capacity • Wireless receive mismatch • Data port Ethernet speed mismatch • Management port Ethernet speed mismatch SNMP notifications are described in Managing alarms and events on page 7-15. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-55
  • 96. System management Chapter 1: Product description Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) The clock supplies accurate date and time information to the system. It can be set to run with or without a connection to one or two network time servers (SNTP). It can be configured to display local time by setting the time zone and daylight saving in the Time Configuration web page. If an SNTP server connection is available, the clock can be set to synchronize with the server time at regular intervals. For secure applications, the PTP 800 can be configured to authenticate received NTP messages using the DES or MD5 protocol. SNMPv3 security SNMP Engine ID PTP 800 supports three different formats for SNMP Engine ID: • MAC address • IP address • Configurable text string SNMPv3 security configuration is re-initialized when the SNMP Engine ID is changed. User-based security model PTP 800 supports the SNMPv3 user-based security model (USM) for up to 10 users, with MD5, SHA-1, DES and (subject to the license key) AES protocols in the following combinations: • No authentication, no privacy, • MD5, no privacy, • SHA-1, no privacy, • MD5, DES, • SHA-1, DES, • MD5, AES, • SHA-1, AES. Use of AES privacy requires the AES upgrade described in AES license on page 1-60. The system will allow the creation of users configured with AES privacy protocol, regardless of license key. However, a user configured to use AES privacy protocol will not be able to transmit and receive encrypted messages unless the license key enables the AES capability. 1-56 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 97. PTP 800 Series User Guide System management View-based access control model PTP 800 supports the SNMPv3 view-based access control model (VACM) with a single context. The context name is the empty string. The context table is read-only, and cannot be modified by users. Access to critical security parameters The SNMPv3 management interface does not provide access to critical security parameters (CSPs). It is not possible to read or modify AES keys used to encrypt data transmitted at the wireless interface. MIB-based management of SNMPv3 security PTP 800 supports a standards-based approach to configuring SNMPv3 users and views through the SNMP MIB. This approach provides maximum flexibility in terms of defining views and security levels appropriate for different types of user. The system provides a default SNMPv3 configuration. This initial configuration is not secure, but it provides the means by which a secure configuration can be created using SNMPv3. The secure configuration should be configured in a controlled environment to prevent disclosure of the initial security keys necessarily sent as plaintext, or sent as encrypted data using a predictable key. The initial security information should not be configured over an insecure network. The default configuration is restored when any of the following occurs: • All CMU configuration data is erased. • All SNMP users are deleted using the SNMP management interface. • The SNMP Engine ID Format has been changed. • The SNMP Engine ID Format is IP Address AND the IP Address has been changed. • The SNMP Engine ID Format is Text String AND the text string has been changed. • The SNMP Engine ID Format is MAC Address AND configuration has been restored using a file saved from a different unit. • SNMPv3 Security Management is changed from web-based to MIB-based. The default user configuration is specified in SNMPv3 default configuration (MIB-based) on page 2-27. The system creates the initial user and template users with localized authentication and privacy keys derived from the passphrase string 123456789. Authentication keys for the templates users are fixed and cannot be changed. Any or all of the template users can be deleted. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-57
  • 98. System management Chapter 1: Product description The default user initial is created with a view of the entire MIB, requiring authentication for SET operations. There is no access for template users. VACM grants access for requests sent with more than the configured security level. The default user initial will have read/write access to the whole of the MIB. This is described in further detail in View-based access control model on page 1-57. The template users have no access to the MIB in the default configuration. User initial will normally be used to create one or more additional users with secret authentication and privacy keys, and with appropriate access to the whole of the MIB or to particular views of the MIB according to the operator’s security policy. New users must be created by cloning template users. The user initial may then be deleted to prevent access using the well-known user name and keys. Alternatively, the keys associated with initial may be set to some new secret value. Web-based management of SNMPv3 security PTP 800 supports an alternative, web-based approach for configuring SNMPv3 security. In this case, the web-based interface allows users to specify SNMPv3 users, security levels, privacy and authentication protocols, and passphrases. Web-based management will be effective for many network applications, but the capabilities supported are somewhat less flexible than those supported using the MIB-based security management. Selection of web-based management for SNMPv3 security disables the MIB-based security management. Web-based management of SNMPv3 security allows for two security roles: • Read Only • System Administrator Read Only and System Administrator users are associated with fixed views allowing access to the whole of the MIB, excluding the objects associated with SNMPv3 security. System Administrators have read/write access as defined in the standard and proprietary MIBs. Web-based management of SNMPv3 security allows an operator to define the security levels and protocols for each of the security roles; all users with the same role share a common selection of security level and protocols. Web-based security configuration is re-initialized when any of the following occurs: • All CMU configuration data is erased. • The SNMP Engine ID Format has been changed. • The SNMP Engine ID Format is IP Address and the IP Address has been changed. • The SNMP Engine ID Format is Text String and the text string has been changed. • The SNMP Engine ID Format is MAC Address and configuration has been restored using a file saved from a different unit. 1-58 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 99. PTP 800 Series User Guide System management • SNMPv3 Security Management is changed from MIB-based to web-based. Additionally, all SNMP user accounts are disabled when the authentication protocol, the privacy protocol, or the security level is changed. Downgrade of the license key A possible lockout condition exists if a user downgrades the license key so as to disable the AES capability when SNMPv3 users are configured with AES privacy and VACM is configured to require privacy. In this case, recovery is by either (a) restoring the correct license key, or (b) using recovery mode to erase all configuration and entering new configuration. Option (b) will cause default users and access configuration to be re-created. System logging (syslog) PTP 800 supports the standard syslog protocol to log important configuration changes, status changes and events. The protocol complies with RFC 3164. PTP 800 creates syslog messages for configuration changes to any attribute that is accessible via the web-based interface, or via the enterprise MIB at the SNMP interface. PTP 800 additionally creates syslog messages for changes in any status variable displayed in the web-based interface. PTP 800 creates syslog messages on a number of events (for example successful and unsuccessful attempts to log in to the web-based interface). PTP 800 can be configured to send syslog messages to one or two standard syslog servers. Additionally, PTP 800 logs event notification messages locally. Locally-stored event messages survive reboot of the unit, and are overwritten only when the storage capacity is exhausted (approximately 2000 messages). The locally stored events can be reviewed using the web-based user interface. Only users with ‘Security Officer’ role are permitted to configure the syslog client. Users with Security Officer, System Administrator or Read Only roles are permitted to review the locally logged event messages. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-59
  • 100. System management Chapter 1: Product description AES license PTP 800 provides optional encryption using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). Encryption is not available in the standard system. AES upgrades are supplied as an access key purchased from your Cambium Point-to-Point distributor or solutions provider. The access key authorizes AES operation for one CMU. Two access keys are needed to operate AES on a link. The upgrade is applied by entering an access key together with the MAC address of the target CMU into the PTP License Key Generator web page, which may be accessed from the support web page (see Contacting Cambium Networks on page 2). The License Key Generator creates a new license key that is delivered by email. The license key must be installed on the CMU. When the license key is installed, the CMU must be rebooted before AES can be enabled. Once applied, the AES upgrade is bound to a single CMU and is not transferrable. AES encryption may be used in the following ways: • At the wireless port to encrypt data transmitted over the wireless link. • At the SNMP management interface in the SNMPv3 mode. • At the HTTPS/TLS management interface. Two levels of encryption are available to purchase: • 128-bit: This allows an operator to encrypt all traffic sent over the wireless link using 128-bit encryption. • 256-bit: This allows an operator to encrypt traffic using either 128-bit or 256-bit encryption. Encryption must be configured with the same size key in each direction. AES encryption at the wireless port is based on pre-shared keys. An identical key must be entered at each end of the link. AES encryption for SNMPv3 is always based on a 128-bit key, regardless of level enabled in the license key. For more information, see: • Task 3: Installing license keys on page 6-18 • Task 5: Configuring security on page 6-25 1-60 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 101. PTP 800 Series User Guide System management Login information PTP 800 optionally provides details of the most recent successful login, and the most recent unsuccessful login attempt, for each user of the web-based interface. Flexible capacity upgrades The maximum data throughput capacity of the PTP 800 wireless link is the lower of the wireless link capacity and the data capacity limit set by the PTP 800 license key. All PTP 800 CMUs are shipped with a factory-set 10 Mbps capacity limit, meaning that capacity is restricted to a maximum of 10 Mbps at the data port. Users can purchase capacity upgrades in nine steps between 20 Mbps and unlimited capacity. Upgrades are applied through the CMU license key, without any change to the hardware. Capacity may be different for different directions. Full capacity trial period: New PTP 800 units can be configured to operate with full transmit capacity (unlimited) during a trial period of duration 60 days, reverting to the licensed capacity when the trial period expires. This trial period is also available on existing units that are upgraded to System Relelease 800-04-00 (or later) from an earlier release. Capacity upgrades are supplied as an access key. The access key authorizes a specific capacity limit for one CMU. Two access keys are needed to operate a link at enhanced capacity. The upgrade is applied by entering an access key together with the MAC address of the target CMU into the PTP License Key Generator web page, which may be accessed from the support web page (see Contacting Cambium Networks on page 2). This web page generates a new license key that must be installed on the CMU. Capacity upgrades become active as soon as the license key is validated. There is no need to reboot the CMU, and the upgrade process does not involve a service interruption. Once applied, the capacity upgrade is bound to a single CMU and is not transferrable. For ordering details including Cambium part numbers, refer to Ordering capacity upgrades on page 2-97. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-61
  • 102. System management Chapter 1: Product description Software upgrade The management agent supports application software upgrade using the web-based interface. PTP 800 software images are digitally signed, and the CMU will accept only images that contain a valid Cambium PTP digital signature. The CMU always requires a reboot to complete a software upgrade. The CMU application software image contains an embedded software image for the RFU. If a CMU software upgrade introduces a new RFU software version, then the RFU software is upgraded automatically following reboot of the CMU. Obtain the application software and this user guide from the support website BEFORE warranty expires. CMU software version must be the same at both ends of the link. Limited operation may sometimes be possible with dissimilar software version, but such operation is not supported by Cambium. The management process for software upgrade is described in detail in Task 4: Upgrading software version on page 6-22. Software can be downgraded using Recovery mode as described in Downgrading PTP 800 software on page 7-77. Recovery mode The PTP 800 recovery mode provides a means to recover from serious configuration errors including lost or forgotten passwords and unknown IP addresses. Recovery mode also allows new main application software to be loaded even when the integrity of the existing main application software image has been compromised. The most likely cause of an integrity problem with the installed main application software is where the power supply has been interrupted during an earlier software upgrade. The CMU operates in recovery mode in the following circumstances: • When a checksum error occurs for the main application software image. • When the CMU front panel recovery button is pressed at the same time as the CMU is rebooted or power cycled. • When the Short Power Cycle for Recovery is enabled, and CMU is power cycled, and the “off” period is between one and five seconds. 1-62 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 103. PTP 800 Series User Guide System management Options in recovery mode are as follows: • Load new main application software. • Reset all configuration data to factory default. This option resets IP and Ethernet configuration, and erases (zeroizes) critical security parameters. • Reset IP and Ethernet configuration to factory default. • Erase (zeroize) critical security parameters. • Reboot with existing software and configuration. If recovery mode has been entered either because of a checksum error or Short Power Cycle, by default the CMU will reboot with existing software and configuration following a 30 second wait. The recovery software image is installed during manufacture of the CMU and cannot be upgraded by operators. For detailed instructions on using the recovery mode, see Using recovery mode on page 7- 71.

  • 104. 1+1 Hot Standby link protection Chapter 1: Product description 1+1 Hot Standby link protection This section is an overview of the concept, operation and interfaces of 1+1 Hot Standby links. 1+1 Hot Standby overview The 1+1 Hot Standby feature provides an option for protecting against a single point equipment failure. It also enables maintenance to be carried out with insignificant impact on customer traffic. Such maintenance actions include software upgrade and unit replacement. In order to protect against failure, extra equipment is required to be installed at each end of the link compared to a standard 1+0 link. This extra equipment will remain on standby until it is required to take over in case of equipment failure. Each end of a 1+1 Hot Standby consists of two CMUs, and either two ODUs for outdoor deployments or one 1+1 capable IRFU for indoor deployments. The 1+1 capable IRFU contains two transceivers for the purposes of protection. In addition, each end can be deployed with either one or two antennas depending on the customer requirements. The antenna options are described in 1+1 Hot Standby link antenna options on page 1-65. At the network side, at least one Ethernet switch must be installed at each end of the link. Detailed network options are described in Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links on page 2-35. The two CMUs which are installed at the same end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link exchange information over an interface known as the Protection Interface. This shares the same physical socket as the Management Port. For configurations which manage the CMU over the Management Port, an accessory known as the Out of Band Protection Splitter is required. This splits out the management traffic from the protection interface. The 1 + 1 Hot Standby feature is only supported in CMUs with Boot Monitor software Boot-03-00 or later. Active and inactive units At any one time at a given end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link, only one CMU will provide the function of forwarding Ethernet frames between the wireless interface and the Ethernet interface. Also, only the ODU / IRFU transceiver connected to this CMU will radiate at the antenna. These units are called the active units. 1-64 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 105. PTP 800 Series User Guide 1+1 Hot Standby link protection The other CMU and ODU / IRFU transceiver are called the inactive units and these will remain on standby waiting to take over in case of a failure of the active units. If a failure does occur, an automatic protection switch will take place and the previously inactive units will take over as the active units. A protection switch may take place at one end of the link independently of the other end of the link. A protection switch may also be executed by management action. Primary and secondary units At each end of the link, one CMU must be configured as a Primary unit, the other as a Secondary unit. The decision of whether the Primary or Secondary CMU becomes active is automatically controlled by the CMU application software. In normal fault free conditions, the CMU application software will select the Primary CMU and associated ODU / IRFU transceiver to be the active unit. 1+1 Hot Standby link antenna options Single antenna per end The ODUs installed at the same end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link can share an antenna. This is done with an ODU Coupler Mounting Kit (Figure 24). The Coupler Mounting Kit can be supplied with equal or unequal coupling. The equal coupler provides the same path loss to the two ODUs where as the unequal coupler provides a lower path loss to one of the ODUs. As the unit configured as Primary is expected to be the active unit for most of the life of a 1+1 Hot Standby link, the highest link availability is achieved by connecting the Primary ODU to the arm of the unequal coupler with the lowest path loss. IRFUs with the 1+1 Tx MHSB option are designed to connect to a single antenna via elliptical waveguide. Although this IRFU option is supplied with two transceivers, only the active transceiver will radiate at the antenna port. This is achieved by an RF switch which is an integral part of the 1+1 IRFUs. The position of the switch is controlled by the CMU application software. The RF switch is not used for the receive direction and both transceivers will simultaneously receive from this same antenna. This is achieved through the use of a coupler which is internal to the IRFU. The 1+1 Tx MHSB option can be supplied with equal or unequal receiver coupling. For more information on the IRFU options, please refer to Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links on page 2-35. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-65
  • 106. 1+1 Hot Standby link protection Chapter 1: Product description Two antennas per end The ODUs installed at the same end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link can be connected to separate antennas. Although antennas with different gains or mounting options may be deployed, they must have the same polarization. If the two antennas at a given end have different gains, the ODU configured as Primary should be connected to the antenna with the highest gain. This option is generally used to provide Spatial Diversity however it also provides protection in the case of antenna or waveguide failure. IRFUs with the 1+1 Tx MHSB / RX SD option are designed to connect to two antennas via elliptical waveguide, a main antenna and a diverse antenna. However the IRFU will only ever radiate from the main antenna, the transceivers being routed to this antenna by an RF switch in an identical way to the 1+1 Tx MHSB option. In the receive direction, spatial diversity is achieved by the main antenna connecting to one transceiver and the diverse antenna connecting to the other transceiver. Although antennas with different gains may be deployed, they must have the same polarization. For more information about spatial diversity, refer to Receive Diversity on page 1-67. Bridging in 1+1 links Only the active CMU forwards customer data from the wireless interface to the Ethernet switch. Also, when Out of Band Management is enabled, only the active CMU forwards management data received from the wireless interface to the Ethernet Switch. In the reverse direction only the active CMU forwards customer and management frames to the wireless interface. This includes management frames which are sourced by the CMU. When a protection switch occurs, the Ethernet Switch learns to send traffic to the newly active CMU. This is achieved by the newly Inactive CMU momentarily disabling its Ethernet ports which causes the Ethernet Switch to flush its forwarding data base and learn the new path. The selected Ethernet Switch must support the feature of flushing the forwarding data base on port down. The Inactive CMU is only manageable from its local Ethernet Port. This is the Data Port when configured for In Band operation and the Management Port when configured for Out of Band operation. Remote management of the Inactive CMU is still possible across the wireless link, the active CMU forwarding management traffic received on the wireless interface to Ethernet Switch which in turn forwards on to the Inactive CMU. 1-66 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 107. PTP 800 Series User Guide 1+1 Hot Standby link protection Receive Diversity Receive Diversity improves link availability by providing each end of a wireless link with multiple observations of the signal which has been transmitted from the remote end of the link. It is particularly effective in combating multipath fading caused by atmospheric effects such as scintillation and ducting. Both these effects can occur to a significant degree in microwave links. It also combats fading caused by reflections from water. Receive Diversity can be enabled (at the CMU) in any of the supported 1+1 Hot Standby configurations. When Receive Diversity is enabled, the Active CMU examines the quality of the data which has been received from the wireless interface of both neighbour CMUs and selects the best data on a byte by byte basis. If separate antennas are installed at each end, then Receive Spatial Diversity is achieved. Receive Diversity Ethernet frames An important aspect of Receive Diversity is how the data received at the wireless interface of the Inactive CMU arrives at the Active CMU. This is achieved by the Inactive CMU encapsulating the received wireless data into Ethernet frames and sending the frames out on the Data port at a constant rate. This requires that the Data ports and also the ports to which they connect at the Ethernet switch are configured into a VLAN dedicated to Receive Diversity Ethernet frames (Figure 36). phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-67
  • 108. 1+1 Hot Standby link protection Chapter 1: Product description Figure 36 Receive Diversity Ethernet frames Effects of Receive Diversity on 1+1 operation In almost all aspects, the 1+1 Hot Standby feature operates in the same way regardless of whether or not Receive Diversity has been enabled. Of most significance is the concept of the Active and Inactive units, where it is the Active ODU or IRFU transceiver which always radiates at the antenna and the Active CMU which forwards Ethernet frames to the network. The Inactive unit remains on standby to take over the role of the Active unit in case of a fault. However, there are some subtle differences as follows: • When Receive Diversity is enabled, then a protection switch will not occur if the fault only affects the wireless receiver of the Active CMU, ODU or IRFU transceiver. This is because the Active CMU will seamlessly use the data received at the wireless interface of the Inactive CMU. The Active ODU or IRFU transceiver will continue to radiate at the antenna. Receiver faults in this category are the RFU Rx Synthesizer faults and complete loss of the wireless receive signal. 1-68 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 109. PTP 800 Series User Guide 1+1 Hot Standby link protection • The Fiber-Y configuration is useful in a network which requires a single Ethernet interface for customer traffic. In order to support Receiver Diversity in Fiber-Y configurations, the CMU copper data ports must also be connected to the same Ethernet Switch as the Fiber-Y interface. This is because the Fiber port of the Inactive CMU is necessarily disabled in Fiber-Y configurations. The copper port is therefore required in order for the Inactive CMU to send Receive Diversity Ethernet Frames. Note that the copper port will never carry customer traffic hence the single interface for customer traffic is not compromised. When Receive Diversity is enabled, there is a small impact on maximum Latency, and hence jitter. When there is significant fading and the Active CMU is using data which has been received at the wireless interface of the Inactive CMU, the latency increase will be affected by the customer traffic. The worst case is where jumbo frames are included in the customer traffic in which case the maximum increase in latency will be 150 μs. In periods where there is no significant fading, the Active CMU will use the data from its own wireless receiver in which case there will be a fixed increase in maximum latency of 12 μs. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 1-69

  • 116. Link planning Chapter 2: Planning considerations Link planning This section describes factors to be taken into account when planning PTP 800 links, such as site selection and cable length, and it introduces the PTP LINKPlanner. Process The majority of the 6 to 38 GHz spectrum is licensed on a link by link basis. Licensing regimes vary from country to country, and the planning process must sometimes be adapted to local circumstances. Link planning must consider the following factors: 1 Identify suitable sites at the ends of the link. 2 Determine the data capacity and availability required for the link. 3 Select an RF band, taking into account the range of link, the capacity required, the availability required, the licensing policy for bands in the region or country, and likely availability of individual licenses in that band. 4 Decide whether spatial diversity is required. Regulations may mandate, or at least recommend spatial diversity for certain lengths of link. LINKPlanner can also be used to determine the availability improvement if Spatial Diversity is deployed. 5 Decide whether 1+1 Hot Standby is required. This may be required for very critical links where outages due to equipment failure cannot be tolerated. If Spatial Diversity has been selected, 1+1 Hot Standby automatically becomes available. 6 Decide whether the Radio Frequency Units should be installed on the mast (ODU) or whether they should be installed indoors (IRFU). Both ends of the link must be deployed with the same option. 7 Use the PTP LINKPlanner to check that a satisfactory, unobstructed, line-of-sight path is possible between the ends. 8 Use PTP LINKPlanner to investigate the performance increase provided by enabling ACM. 9 Apply for an individual license. 10 Use the PTP LINKPlanner with the license details to identify a Bill of Materials for the link. 11 Order equipment from Cambium. 2-2 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 121. PTP 800 Series User Guide Grounding and lightning protection Grounding and lightning protection This section describes the grounding and lightning protection requirements of PTP 800 installations. Electro-magnetic discharge (lightning) damage is not covered under warranty. The recommendations in this guide, when followed correctly, give the user the best protection from the harmful effects of EMD. However 100% protection is neither implied nor possible. The need for power surge protection Structures, equipment and people must be protected against power surges (typically caused by lightning) by conducting the surge current to ground via a separate preferential solid path. The actual degree of protection required depends on local conditions and applicable local regulations. Cambium recommends that PTP 800 installation is contracted to a professional installer. Standards Full details of lightning protection methods and requirements can be found in the international standards IEC 61024-1 and IEC 61312-1, the U.S. National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984 or section 54 of the Canadian Electric Code.

  • 122. Grounding and lightning protection Chapter 2: Planning considerations Lightning Protection Zones The ‘rolling sphere method’ (Figure 42) is used to determine where it is safe to mount equipment. An imaginary sphere, typically 50 meters in radius, is rolled over the structure. Where the sphere rests against the ground and a strike termination device (such as a finial or ground bar), all the space under the sphere is considered to be in the zone of protection (Zone B). Similarly, where the sphere rests on two finials, the space under the sphere is considered to be in the zone of protection. Figure 42 Rolling sphere method to determine the lightning protection zones Assess locations on masts, towers and buildings to determine if the location is in Zone A or Zone B: • Zone A: In this zone a direct lightning strike is possible. Do not mount equipment in this zone. • Zone B: In this zone, direct EMD (lightning) effects are still possible, but mounting in this zone significantly reduces the possibility of a direct strike. Mount equipment in this zone. Never mount equipment in Zone A. Mounting in Zone A may put equipment, structures and life at risk. 2-8 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 132. Data network planning Chapter 2: Planning considerations Data network planning This section describes factors to be considered when planning PTP 800 data networks. Management mode Decide how the PTP 800 will be managed. There are three modes of management: out-of- band local, out-of-band and in-band. In the default out-of-band local management mode, the management agent can be reached only from the Management port of the CMU. This mode is appropriate during configuration and installation when the equipment is managed using a locally connected PC at each end of the link. It may additionally be useful where network management communication is based on a completely independent data network (for example, one based on a 3G cellular wireless terminal at each site). In many network applications the wireless link will provide the only communication path to a remote site. In such applications, CMUs and other network equipment at the remote site will be managed over the wireless link. For applications of this type, select either out-of- band or in-band management mode. Out-of-band management should be configured by operators who wish to fully separate customer data traffic from the traffic generated by management of the network equipment. When configured for out-of-band management mode, the PTP 800 supports two networks, the customer data network and the management network. The customer data is transported between the Data ports of the CMUs and the management traffic is transported between the Management ports. The CMU management agent is also part of the management network. Traffic never crosses between the two networks. The management network has a configurable Committed Information Rate of between 100 kbps and 2 Mbps. It will also provide a maximum of 10 Mbps when there is no customer traffic to send over the link. When configured for in-band management mode, the PTP 800 only supports a single network. Customer traffic and Management traffic are multiplexed and passed between the Data ports of the CMUs. The CMU Management port is disabled in this mode. This mode of operation may be useful where a customer has a limited number of Ethernet ports at a site. Make sure that the same management mode is selected for CMUs at both ends of a link. See Management network on page 1-43 for further explanation of management modes. When using out-of-band management mode, avoid connecting Management and Data ports in the same network. Loops in the network can be complicated to detect and correct. 2-18 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 133. PTP 800 Series User Guide Data network planning VLAN membership Decide if the IP interface of the CMU management agent will be connected in a VLAN. If so, decide if this is a standard (IEEE 802.1Q) VLAN or provider bridged (IEEE 802.1ad) VLAN, and select the VLAN ID for this VLAN. Use of a separate management VLAN is strongly recommended for applications based on the in-band management mode. Use of the management VLAN helps to ensure that the CMU management agent cannot be accessed by customers. See Management network on page 1-43 for further explanation of VLAN membership. Priority for management traffic Choose the Ethernet priority for management traffic generated within the CMU management agent. The priority should be selected so as to be consistent with existing policy on priority of management traffic in the network. Use of a high priority is strongly recommended for applications based on the in-band management mode to ensure that management traffic is not discarded if the link is overloaded. IP interface Choose an IP address for the IP interface of the CMU management agent. The IP address must be unique and valid for the connected network segment and VLAN. Find out the correct subnet mask and gateway IP address for this network segment and VLAN. Ensure that the design of the data network permits bi-direction routing of IP datagrams between network management systems and the CMUs. For example, ensure that the gateway IP address identifies a router or other gateway that provides access to the rest of the data network. See Management network on page 1-43 for further explanation of configuration of the IP interface. Quality of service for bridged Ethernet traffic Decide how quality of service will be configured in PTP 800 to minimize frame loss and latency for high priority traffic. Wireless links often have lower data capacity than wired links or network equipment like switches and routers, and quality of service configuration is most critical at network bottlenecks. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 2-19
  • 134. Data network planning Chapter 2: Planning considerations PTP 800 provides eight queues for traffic waiting for transmission over the wireless link. Q0 is the lowest priority queue and Q7 is the highest priority queue. Traffic is scheduled using strict priority; in other words, traffic in a given queue is transmitted when all higher priority queues are empty. Layer 2 control protocols Select the transmission queue for each of the recognized layer 2 control protocols (L2CP). These protocols are essential to correct operation of the Ethernet network, and are normally mapped to a high priority queue. Ethernet frames that match one of the recognized L2CPs are not subject to the Ethernet and IP/MPLS classification described below. Priority schemes Select the priority scheme based on Ethernet priority or IP/MPLS priority to match QoS policy in the rest of the data network. Ethernet priority is also known as Layer 2 or link layer priority. IP/MPLS priority is also known as Layer 3 or network layer priority. Ethernet priority scheme Ethernet priority is encoded in a VLAN tag. Use the Ethernet priority scheme if the network carries traffic in customer or service provider VLANs, and the priority in the VLAN tag has been set to indicate the priority of each type of traffic. Select a suitable mapping from the Ethernet priority to the eight PTP 800 queues. An advantage of Ethernet priority is that any VLAN-tagged frame can be marked with a priority, regardless of the higher-layer protocols contained within the frame. A disadvantage of Ethernet priority is that the priority in the frame must be regenerated whenever traffic passes through a router. The user interface provides a convenient shortcut to select the assignment recommended in IEEE 802.1Q-2005. IP/MPLS priority scheme IP priority is encoded in the DSCP field in an IPv4 or IPv6 header. The DSCP field provides 64 levels of priority. Determine the DSCP values used in the network and select a suitable mapping from these DSCP values to the eight PTP 800 queues. An advantage of IP priority is that priority in the IP header is normally propagated transparently through a router. Also, the DSCP field supports a large number of distinct priority code points. A disadvantage of DSCP is that frames receive a single default classification if they contain a network layer protocol other than IPv4 or IPv6. MPLS priority is encoded in the traffic class (TC) field in the outermost MPLS label. Select a suitable mapping from MPLS TC to the eight PTP 800 queues. 2-20 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 135. PTP 800 Series User Guide Data network planning Hot Standby links In a 1+1 Hot Standby link, set the same QoS configuration on primary and secondary units. Out-of-band management When the wireless link is configured for out-of-band management, select an appropriate setting for the Management CIR attribute. A high CIR will provide greater capacity for management traffic, at the cost of allowing bursty management traffic to have a greater impact on capacity remaining for customer traffic. A low CIR may result in extended response times for network management traffic. Fast Ethernet port shutdown If the PTP 800 link is part of a redundant network where STP or EAPS is used in external Ethernet bridges in order to resolve loops, enable the Data Port Wireless Down Alert and Management Data Port Wireless Down Alert to ensure that protection protocols are invoked promptly following loss of the wireless link. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 2-21

If SNTP server synchronization is not required, the clock can be set to run manually. The clock is battery backed and will continue to operate for several days after the CMU is switched off. • If SNTP server synchronization is required, identify the details of one or two SNTP servers: IP address and server key. • For secure applications, the PTP 800 can be configured to authenticate received NTP messages using the DES or MD5 protocols. Planning for AES encryption To prepare for wireless link encryption: • Choose 128-bit or 256-bit AES encryption. • Use a cryptographic key generator to generate an encryption key for AES. The key length is dictated by the selected AES encryption algorithm (128 or 256 bits). The same encryption key is required at each link end. 2-22 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 139. PTP 800 Series User Guide Security planning Planning for SNMPv3 operation SNMP security mode Decide how SNMPv3 security will be configured. MIB-based security management uses standard SNMPv3 MIBs to configure the user-based security model and the view-based access control model. This approach provides considerable flexibility, allowing a network operator to tailor views and security levels appropriate for different types of user. MIB-based security management may allow a network operator to take advantage of built-in security management capabilities of existing network managers. Web-based security management allows an operator to configure users, security levels, privacy and authentication protocols, and passphrases using the web-based management interface. The capabilities supported are somewhat less flexible than those supported using the MIB-based security management, but will be sufficient in many applications. Selection of web-based management for SNMPv3 security disables the MIB-based security management. The system does not support concurrent use of MIB-based and web-based management of SNMPv3 security. Web-based management of SNMPv3 security Initial configuration of SNMPv3 security is available only to HTTP or HTTPS/TLS user accounts with security role of Security Officer. Identify the minimum security role of HTTP or HTTPS/TLS user accounts that will be permitted access for web-based management of SNMPv3 security. Two roles are available: • System Administrator • Security Officer Identify the format used for SNMP Engine ID. Three formats are available: • MAC address (default) • IP address • Text string If SNMP Engine ID will be based on a text string, identify the text string required by the network management system. This is often based on some identifier that survives replacement of the PTP hardware. Identify the user names and security roles of initial SNMPv3 users. Two security roles are available: • Read Only • System Administrator phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 2-25

Three security levels are available: • No authentication, no privacy • Authentication, no privacy • Authentication, privacy If authentication is required, identify the protocol. Two authentication protocols are available: • MD5 • SHA If privacy will be used, identify the protocol. Two privacy protocols are available: • DES • AES AES link encryption is only available to users who have purchased an appropriate license key. If authentication or authentication and privacy protocols are required, identify passphrases for each protocol for each SNMP user. It is considered good practice to use different passphrases for authentication and privacy. Passphrases must have length between 8 and 32 characters, and may contain any of the characters listed in Table 8.

  • 142. Security planning Chapter 2: Planning considerations Planning for RADIUS operation Configure RADIUS where remote authentication is required for users of the web-based interface. Remote authentication has the following advantages: • Control of passwords can be centralized. • Management of user accounts can be more sophisticated For example, users can be prompted by email to change passwords at regular intervals. As another example, passwords can be checked for inclusion of dictionary words and phrases. • Passwords can be updated without reconfiguring multiple network elements. • User accounts can be disabled without reconfiguring multiple network elements. Remote authentication has one significant disadvantage in a wireless link product such as PTP 800. If the wireless link is down, a unit on the remote side of the broken link may be prevented from contacting a RADIUS Server, with the result that users are unable to access the web-based interface. One useful strategy would be to combine RADIUS authentication for normal operation with a single locally-authenticated user account for emergency use. PTP 800 provides a choice of three authentication methods: • CHAP • MS-CHAPv2 • PEAP(MS-CHAPv2) PEAP(MS-CHAPv2) is supported for Microsoft Windows Server 2003. Ensure that the authentication method selected in PTP 800 is supported by the RADIUS server. RADIUS is not permitted in FIPS 140-2 applications. RADIUS and PEAP(MS-CHAPv2) are mandatory in UC-APL applications. RADIUS attributes If the standard RADIUS attribute session-timeout (Type 27) is present in a RADIUS response, PTP 800 sets a maximum session length for the authenticated user. If the attribute is absent, the maximum session length is infinite. If the standard RADIUS attribute idle-timeout (Type 28) is present in a RADIUS response, PTP 800 overrides the Auto Logout Timer with this value in the authenticated session. 2-28 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

PTP 800 Series User Guide Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links Concept of a 1+1 Hot Standby link A 1+1 Hot Standby link provides protection against single point equipment failure. This is achieved by the deployment of extra equipment which automatically takes over the operation of the link in case of failure. The two main advantages of a 1+1 Hot Standby link are: • Better availability. In the unlikely event of equipment failure, the 1+1 Hot Standby link becomes operational again with a down time of less than 250 ms. This is compared to a lengthy down time in the event of equipment failure in a 1+0 link. This may be particularly important in remote locations or for safety critical applications. • Maintenance operations can be carried out, such as installation of new software, with a minimum of interruption to the service provided by the link. Antenna, RFU and CMU configurations for 1+1 Do not install an ODU and an IRFU in the same link, as they cannot interwork.

  • 156. Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links Chapter 2: Planning considerations Designating primary and secondary units At each end, the CMU which is connected to the ODU or IRFU transceiver with the best link budget should be configured as the Primary unit. In ODU deployments with unequal couplers, this will be the ODU connected to the arm of the coupler with the lowest path loss. The coupler labels this arm as "Main". In the case of separate antennas, it will be the ODU connected to the antenna with the highest gain. If equal gain antennas are used, either CMU can be configured as Primary CMU. In IRFU deployments, the CMU which connects to the left hand transceiver must be configured as the Primary CMU. The procedure for configuring the primary and secondary units is described in Configuring 1+1 Hot Standby links on page 6-51). Link Planning for 1+1 Hot Standby links A 1+1 Hot Standby link has four radio paths: • Primary end A to Primary end B • Primary end A to Secondary end B • Secondary end A to Primary end B • Secondary end A to Secondary end B Although a 1+1 Hot Standby link will normally operate on the Primary to Primary radio path, LINKPlanner does allow the user to check wireless link availability for all four paths, any of which could become the active path in the case of a fault causing a protection switch at either end of the link. When using LINKPlanner, ensure that the availability of all four paths meets your requirements. 2-42 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 157. PTP 800 Series User Guide Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links Network configurations for 1+1 1+1 Hot Standby link management In a 1+1 Hot Standby Link, each CMU is managed separately and must be assigned its own IP address. Choosing Ethernet switches The Ethernet switch must react to a brief disconnection of an Ethernet port by flushing its forwarding data base (see Bridging in 1+1 links on page 1-66). This allows the Ethernet switch to learn the new bridging path following a protection switch. When choosing an Ethernet switch, ensure that this feature is supported. Many inexpensive unmanaged switches fail to meet this requirement. The switch must support the required number of ports for 1+1 Hot Standby operation. This is dependent on the following factors: • Whether copper or fiber is the physical connection medium or whether the Fiber-Y option is required. • Whether in-band or out-of-band management mode is required. The details of these requirements are in the following sections. 1+1 Hot Standby link with out-of-band management Out-of-band management provides two separate networks, one for customer data and one for managing the network. Please refer to Management network on page 1-43 for more details on out-of-band Management. When Out of Band management is selected, the Ethernet switch must provide two ports in order to carry the management traffic to both CMUs. As the protection interface shares the same physical socket as the management port, an Out of Band Protection Splitter is required to route the management traffic from the two CMUs to the Ethernet switch. For the customer data, there are two methods of connection, either redundant data ports or Fiber-Y. For redundant data ports, the Ethernet switch must provide two ports for carrying customer data traffic to both CMUs. The choice of physical medium can be copper or fiber and this can be selected independently for each CMU. This arrangement is shown in Figure 59. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 2-43
  • 158. Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links Chapter 2: Planning considerations The Fiber-Y arrangement can be a useful feature in complex networks, such as ring architectures, where there is a requirement for the link to provide a single interface at the Ethernet Switch.

This feature can be enabled (at the CMU) in any of the supported 1+1 Hot Standby configurations described in Antenna, RFU and CMU configurations for 1+1 on page 2-35. This feature provides Receive Spatial Diversity when two antennas are installed at the same end, that is, in the following configurations: • ODUs with separate direct mount antennas on page 2-38 • ODUs with separate remote mount antennas on page 2-39 • IRFU 1+1 Tx MHSB / Rx SD with two remote mount antennas on page 2-41 For further information on the Receive Diversity feature, see Receive Diversity on page 1- 67. 2-46 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 161. PTP 800 Series User Guide Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links Ethernet Switch Requirements for Receive Diversity In addition to the Ethernet Switch features required to support operation of a 1+1 Hot Standby link, further features are required when Receive Diversity is enabled. This is because the Ethernet Switch must bridge special Receive Diversity Ethernet Frames from the Inactive CMU to the Active CMU. The payload of these frames contains the demodulated and decoded data received at the wireless interface of the Inactive CMU. The Active CMU can then make use of the data received at the wireless interface of either CMU. • The customer data ports which connect the Ethernet Switch to the CMU must be capable of negotiating at 1 Gbps full duplex. This is to ensure that latency is kept to a minimum and that the highest capacity configurations can be supported. Note that Receive Diversity Frames are not sent from the Inactive CMU if either CMU has trained at less than 1 Gbps full duplex. • The Ethernet Switch must support the configuration of Virtual LANs using either 802.1Q or 802.1ad. Configuring a dedicated VLAN to bridge Receive Diversity Ethernet Frames from the Inactive CMU to the Active CMU prevents these frames from flooding the network. • The network configurations are identical to those described for the 1+1 Hot Standby configurations (see Network configurations for 1+1 on page 2-43), with the exception of the Fiber-Y configuration. In addition to connecting the Fiber ports of the CMU to the Ethernet switch using Fiber-Y, the copper data ports of the CMUs must also connect to the Ethernet switch (see Figure 60). The copper data port will only be used for forwarding Receive Diversity Frames out of the Inactive CMU which will necessarily have its fiber port disabled in the Fiber-Y configuration. Customer data will only ever be forwarded to and from the Fiber port of the Active CMU ensuring that the Fiber-Y configuration meets the requirement for a single customer data port at the Ethernet switch. VLAN considerations for Receive Diversity The ports which connect the Ethernet Switch to the CMUs must be configured into a dedicated VLAN for Receive Diversity Ethernet Frames. Only these two ports must be configured in this VLAN to prevent the frames from flooding the network. Existing VLANs configured for these ports will not be affected. The following attributes must be considered when planning for Receive Diversity. • Select either C-TAG (802.1Q) or S-TAG (802.1ad) operation for the Receive Diversity VLAN. The configuration at the switch must match the value of the CMU attribute Rx Diversity TPID. • Select a dedicated VLAN identifier (VID) for the Receive Diversity VLAN. The configuration at the switch must match the value of the CMU attribute Rx Diversity VID. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 2-47
  • 162. Planning 1+1 Hot Standby links Chapter 2: Planning considerations • At the Ethernet Switch, configure the Receive Diversity VLAN for tagged operation. At the ingress, the ports in this VLAN must accept tagged frames which arrive with the Receive Diversity VID and forward them to the other port which is also a member of this VLAN. At the egress, the Ethernet Switch must NOT strip the Receive Diversity tag. Performance considerations for Receive Diversity As the Ethernet Switch multiplexes the Receive Diversity Frames with customer traffic, the impact of the Receive Diversity feature on latency and jitter must be considered. When the link is not fading, the maximum latency increases by 12 μs in all configurations. When the link fades to the point where the Active unit can no longer demodulate a signal and where the data stream from the Inactive unit is being used, the maximum latency increases to a value which is dependent on the frames size of the customer traffic as shown in Table 11. Table 11 Frame size and latency relationship in Rx SD links Maximum Customer Latency increase with Frame Size (octets) Receive Diversity enabled (µs) 64 53 1500 64 9600 150 In all cases, the minimum latency does not change hence jitter is increased. Link Planning for Spatial Diversity Spatial Diversity can significantly improve the availability of a link, particularly for long links. Indeed regulations can recommend or even mandate that Spatial Diversity is deployed for links which are longer than a specific range. LINKPlanner calculates link availability for all link configurations and provides a very convenient way of seeing the effect of enabling Spatial Diversity. Note that when ACM is enabled, Spatial Diversity only increases the availability of the lowest configured modulation mode. The availability of higher order modes is not increased. 2-48 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 169. PTP 800 Series User Guide Planning 2+0 links Network configurations for 2+0 In a 2+0 configuration, Link ‘A’ and Link ‘B’ are independent. Each CMU is connected to the network using one of the methods described in Network configurations for 1+0 on page 2-34. The two links may be managed in different ways, for example Link ‘A’ may be out-of-band and Link ‘B’ may be in-band. Frequency spacing in 2+0 ODU based links For co-polar deployments, the transmit frequency of link A and link B at a given end must be separated by at least two channel separations. For example, if the channel separation is configured as 28 MHz, the spacing between the two transmit frequencies must be at least 56 MHz. For cross-polar deployments, the transmit frequency of link A and link B at a given end must be separated by at least one channel separation. For example, if the channel separation is configured as 28 MHz, the spacing between the two transmit frequencies must be at least 28 MHz. Frequency spacing in 2+0 IRFU based links In a 2+0 IRFU-based link, plan the four transmit frequencies to meet the following requirements: • At each link end, the two transmit frequencies must be separated by at least the amount quoted in Table 12. • At each link end, the transmit and receive frequencies must be separated by at least the amount quoted in Table 13. Table 12 Minimum transmit/transmit frequency separation at a 2+0 IRFU link end Channel bandwidth Band RF filter Minimum separation between bandwidth transmit frequencies 25, 30, 40 MHz 6 GHz, 30 MHz 70 MHz 11 GHz 40 MHz 80 MHz 10 MHz 6 GHz 30 MHz 40 MHz 10 MHz 11 GHz 30 MHz 60 MHz 40 MHz 70 MHz phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 2-55

The tables specify, for each frequency band, region (FCC and ETSI), bandwidth and modulation mode, the following data: • F/R mode: This means ‘Fixed or reference mode’. It indicates whether or not the modulation mode is available as a fixed or reference mode. • Cap (Mbps): This means ‘Capacity’. It is the maximum sustained aggregate load applied to the data and management Ethernet ports that can be delivered to the remote Ethernet ports without packet discard. This capacity can be achieved with Ethernet Frames which have the highest configured Quality of Service class. Capacity is approximately 1.5% lower for Ethernet Frames with a lower classification. Please refer to Customer network on page 1-42 for an explanation of Ethernet Frame classification. • Sens (dBm): This means ‘Sensitivity’ It is the typical receive signal level which produces a Frame Error Rate of 5 x 10-4 using 64 octet frames. This is equivalent to a Bit Error Rate of 1 x 10-6 as defined in EN 302 217 Annex F. • ACM-o (dBm): This means ‘ACM threshold out'. It is the typical signal level at which a given modulation can no longer be supported. When adaptive modulation is enabled and the signal level falls below this level, the modulation with the next lower capacity is automatically selected. • ACM-i (dBm): This means 'ACM threshold in'. It is the typical signal level required for a given modulation to be automatically selected when adaptive modulation is enabled. 4-22 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

The PTP 800 will not transmit at a level greater than the configured value of Maximum Transmit Power. However if ATPC is enabled, the PTP 800 may transmit at a lower power than the configured value for Maximum Transmit Power. • Min tx (dBm): This means ‘Minimum transmit power’, the minimum value to which the Maximum Transmit Power parameter may be configured.

The following tables contain capacity, transmit power and sensitivity data for PTP 800 links operating in the 11 GHz band. For column definitions, refer to Capacity, transmit power and sensitivity on page 4-22. The maximum and minimum transmit powers are the powers at the output of an IRFU transceiver and not at the waveguide interface. The power at the waveguide interface depends on the branching unit configuration, which adds additional loss according to Table 133. The receive sensitivities are at the input to the IRFU transceiver and not at the waveguide interface. The sensitivity at the waveguide interface depends on the branching unit configuration, which adds additional loss according to Table 134.

ETSI method This section evaluates the radiation levels produced by the PTP 800 products against the following standards: • 1999/519/EC of 12 July 1999 on the limitation of exposure of the general public to electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz). • EN 50385:2002 Product standard to demonstrate the compliances of radio base stations and fixed terminal stations for wireless telecommunication systems with the basic restrictions or the reference levels related to human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields (110 MHz to 40 GHz) — general public. • EN 50383:2002 Basic standard for the calculation and measurement of electromagnetic field strength and SAR related to human exposure from radio base stations and fixed terminal stations for wireless telecommunication systems (110 MHz to 40 GHz). Exposure categories EN 50385:2002 Clause 3.1 defines the restrictions on exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields that are based directly on established health effects. Between 10 GHz and 40 GHz, the physical quantity is the power density. 1999/519/EC defines the exposure limit (‘Basic Restriction’) to be considered for the general public. Annex II and Table 1 define this to be 10 W/m2. Antenna directivity The Cambium recommended antennas have Hi-Performance polar patterns in accordance with ETSI EN302 217-4-1 classes 2 and 3. They have gains in excess of 30 dB and beamwidths of less than 5 degrees. Thus, they provide high attenuation of radiated energy at the sides and rear of the antenna. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 4-85
  • 320. Radiation hazard assessment Chapter 4: Reference information Calculation Calculation is used to identify the Compliance Boundary; outside this boundary the radiation levels meet the Basic Restriction, which is defined in 1999/519/EC as 10 W/m2. The distance from the antenna at which the Power Flux Density limit is equal to some specified value is calculated using the Cylindrical Wave model as follows: P .180 S= π Ddδ Where S = Power density (W/m2), P = Maximum average transmit power capability of the radio (Watts), D = Antenna diameter (meters), d = Distance from point source (meters), δ = 3 dB antenna beamwidth (degrees). Rearranging terms to solve for distance yields: P .180 d = S π Dδ Distances from antenna Table 208 specifies calculated minimum separation distances for a range of frequency bands and antenna sizes at the peak of the antenna beam. At these and greater distances, the power density from the RF field is not considered to be hazardous.

  • 321. PTP 800 Series User Guide Radiation hazard assessment These separation distances are significantly lower than those calculated by the method specified by the FCC. The ETSI method recognises that radiation is distributed across the antenna aperture and is not in reality a point source. FCC method Relevant standards (North America and EC) applicable when working with RF equipment are: • ANSI IEEE C95.1-1991, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. • 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/ewh-semt/pubs/radiation/99ehd-dhm237/limits-limites_e.html 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. Calculation FCC OET Bulletin 65 specifies the far-field method to calculate power density: PG S= 4π R 2 Where S = Power density (W/m2), P = Maximum average transmit power capability of the radio (Watts), G = Antenna gain, R = Distance from point source (meters). FCC Title 47 Part 1.1310 defines the exposure limit for the general population to be 10 W/m2 (1 mW/cm2) in the frequency range 1500 to 100,000 MHz. This defines an exposure time of 30 minutes. Higher levels are permitted for shorter periods of exposure. Rearranging terms to solve for distance yields: 4π S R= PG phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 4-87

PTP 800 Series User Guide Installing antennas and ODUs Installing a remote mount antenna with one ODU In the remote mount configuration, the antenna and ODU are attached to the mast separately, connected to each other via a flexible waveguide. The flexible waveguide is designed to isolate vibration and eliminate difficulties caused by misalignment. The flexible waveguide must be protected from damage that may be caused by contamination, vibration or bending. When installing a flexible waveguide, observe the following precautions: • Unpacking: To avoid damage to the waveguide, do not unpack it until required. When unpacked, protect the waveguide from dirt, dust or ingress of foreign objects. • Vibration: Flexible waveguides may be damaged if subjected to excessive vibration or excessive bending. If a flexible waveguide is installed in a stressed (tensile) condition, vibration should be kept to a minimum, as the waveguide rubber jacket may become more susceptible to ozone and general environmental attack. Always use the waveguide hangers; two hangers should be used for the 900mm (3ft) flexible waveguide. • Bend radius: Conform to the bend radii, maximum twist and torque settings specified in Flexible waveguide specifications on page 4-10. • Static bend radius: When installing a flexible waveguide, pay attention to the static bend radius (quoted in the waveguide manufacturer’s data sheet). Static bend radius is the minimum bend that an assembly may be subject to without repeat movement (except as a consequence of small vibrations or axial expansions). Before installation, check that the ODU, RMK, waveguide and antenna have compatible interfaces. For a 2+0 cross-polar remote mount configuration, follow the procedures in this section to install two ODUs and waveguides and one dual-polar antenna, but connect both ODUs to the antenna via the waveguide ports (Figure 73). phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 5-9

  • 370. Installing the IF and ground cables Chapter 5: Installation Hoisting the main IF cable Hoisting grips are designed for hoisting cable safely up a tower or building and providing permanent support so that mechanical connection to an antenna can be made. A clamp is placed over the grip and secured to the cable with a special tool. When the cable is in position and the grip handle is fastened to a tower member, the hoist line can be removed. A suitable hoisting grip for CNT-400 IF cable is Cambium part number 07009304001 used together with the correct crimp tool SG-IT (Andrew part number 243333). Failure to obey the following precautions may result in injury or death. Observe the following precautions: • Use the hoisting grip to hoist one cable only. Attempting to hoist more than one cable may cause the hoisting grip to break or the cables to fall. • Do not use the hoisting grip for lowering cable unless the clamp is securely in place. • Do not reuse hoisting grips. Used grips may have lost elasticity, stretched, or become weakened. Reusing a grip can cause the cable to slip, break, or fall. • Use hoisting grips at intervals of no more than 60 m (200 ft). • Use the proper hoisting grip for the cable being installed. If the wrong hoisting grip is used, slippage or insufficient gripping strength will result. Attaching the hoisting grip Attach one or more hoisting grips to the main IF cable before fitting the N type connector to the top end (as described in Preparing IF cables on page 5-37). Attach one additional hoisting grip for each 60 m (200 ft) of cable. 5-48 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 381. PTP 800 Series User Guide Testing the ODU and IF cable Testing the ODU and IF cable Applies to ODU deployments only. This section describes how to perform pre-power tests on the ODU, LPUs and the IF cable. Recommended pre-power tests Following the installation of the ODU, LPUs and the IF cable, but before connecting and applying power to the CMU, the following tests are recommended: • Cable loss with ODU disconnected: This test will ensure that the total cable loss, including loss from the LPUs, is within acceptable limits. • Cable loss with the ODU connected: This test will confirm that the cable contains no short circuit or open circuit. • Distance to fault (DTF) return loss with the ODU connected: This test confirms the position of the LPUs in the cable run and confirms there are no other points of discontinuity in the cable. By comparing a current plot to a previously recorded plot, it is possible to detect any degradation over time. Test equipment An RF cable analyzer such as an Anritsu ‘Site Master’ can be used to confirm that the installed cable between the ODU and the CMU has the correct loss and does not have any short or open circuits. If the cable is faulty, this equipment can be used to identify the location of a fault in the cable. Figure 80 is an example of a cable analyzer that is suitable for performing the tests described in this section. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 5-59

When these preparations are complete, perform the following tests: • Testing cable loss on page 5-61. • Measuring distance to fault on page 5-66. Testing cable loss The purpose of this test is to ensure that the total cable loss is within acceptable limits. Before performing this test, ensure that the test equipment is set up as described in Test preparation on page 5-60. To measure cable loss, proceed as follows: 1 Select the ‘cable loss-one port’ mode of the cable analyzer (Figure 80). 2 Set the frequency of measurement to: F1 = 350MHz F2 = 400MHz. 3 Calibrate the instrument for the selected frequencies, using the correct calibration kit. 4 Before connecting the ODU, obtain a plot of cable loss and check that it is within the expected limits for the given cable length (Table 213). Compare it to examples of good installations (Figure 82 and Figure 84). 5 Connect the ODU. 6 Observe the effect of the ODU connection on the plot of cable loss. Compare it to examples of good installations (Figure 83 and Figure 85). If there is little or no change to the plot when the ODU is connected, it indicates a short or open circuit on the cable. 7 Keep a copy of the cable loss plots so that they can be compared with subsequent plots to determine if there is any degradation with time. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 5-61

  • 398. Installing the CMU Chapter 5: Installation Installing the CMU This section describes how to mount the CMU in the building or cabinet, and to connect it to ground, power supply and PC. When installing a 1+1 Hot Standby link, install two CMUs at each end, one for the Primary and one for the Secondary unit. When installing a 2+0 link, install two CMUs at each end, one for the link ‘A’ and one for the link ‘B’ ODU. To minimise radiated emissions, use screened Ethernet cable for all copper connections from the CMU Ethernet ports. This includes the Data port connection to any network switch and the Management port to the splitter WB3807 (if fitted) and onwards to any network switch. Maximum operating ambient temperature for the CMU HOT SURFACES: care should be taken when handling an operating CMU. The CMU must be mounted on either a horizontal or vertical surface. The supplied mounting bracket must be used. The CMU must not be operated in ambient temperatures exceeding 40 deg C unless mounted in a Restricted Access Location. At ambient temperatures over this limit, the temperature of the external metal case parts of the CMU may exceed a touch temperature of 70 deg C. Heat warning labels are fixed adjacent to the hottest parts, on the top of the unit adjacent to the rear face and to the front panel mounted N type connector. Operation of CMU in a Restricted Access Location The CMU may be operated in ambient temperatures up to 55°C when it is housed in a Restricted Access Location. Under these conditions the temperature of the external metal case parts of the CMU may exceed a touch temperature of 70°C, but will be less than 90°C. A Restricted Access Location is defined (in EN 90650-1) as one where access may only be gained by use of a tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and access is controlled by the authority responsible for the location. 5-76 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 428. Preparing for configuration and alignment Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment Preparing for configuration and alignment This section describes the checks to be performed before proceeding with unit configuration and antenna alignment. Safety precautions during configuration and alignment All national and local safety standards must be followed while configuring the units and aligning the antennas. Ensure that personnel are not exposed to unsafe levels of RF energy. The units start to radiate as soon as they are powered up. Respect the safety standards defined in Radiation hazard assessment on page 4-85, in particular the minimum separation distances. Observe the following guidelines: o Never work in front of the antenna when the CMU is powered. o Always power down the CMU before connecting or disconnecting the drop cable from the CMU, RFU or LPU. Regulatory compliance during configuration and alignment All applicable radio regulations must be followed while configuring the units and aligning the antennas. For more information, refer to Electromagnetic compliance on page 4-81. USA only: if the system designer has provided a list of channels to be barred for TDWR radar avoidance, the affected channels must be barred during staging, before the units are allowed to radiate on site, otherwise FCC rules will be infringed. Selecting configuration options Use the installation report to determine which configuration options are required. Refer to Link planning on page 2-2. 6-2 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

PTP 800 Series User Guide Task 1: Connecting to the unit 6 If the network adaptor supports advanced properties then ensure that Ethernet Speed and Duplex are both configured for automatic negotiation. One example, based on a Broadcom™ adaptor, is shown: Updating the ARP table All PTP 800 units are supplied with the same default IP address. When the management PC is connected to a PTP 800 unit, it creates an association between the default IP address (169.254.1.1) and the MAC address of the PTP 800. If two or more PTP 800 units are being configured, this association must be removed after each unit has been configured. To remove the association between IP address and MAC address in the ARP table of the management PC: open a command prompt window on the PC and enter this command: arp –d 169.254.1.1 When this address is next used, the PC will connect it with the MAC address of the unit being configured and update the ARP table with the new association. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 6-5

Out-of-band management Where out-of-band management is chosen, the management port is active and a PC can be locally connected. Once the wireless link is operational, the remote PTP 800 unit may also be accessed across the wireless link. In a 1+1 Hot Standby link with out-of-band management, the commissioning engineer can connect to both PTP 800s in the following ways: • Locally from the Ethernet port of the protection splitter • From a PC connected to a local switch where routing and connectivity exist for accessing the Ethernet port of the protection splitter. • Before the protection splitter is installed, locally from the management port. 6-8 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 435. PTP 800 Series User Guide Task 2: Configuring IP and Ethernet interfaces In-band management Where in-band management is chosen, the choice of scheme depends on the available data network and the method of network connectivity. With in-band management, there is a risk that a configuration error could lead to loss of management connectivity. If connectivity is lost, recover the units to a known working saved configuration, as described in Using recovery mode on page 7-71. In a 1+1 Hot Standby link with in-band management, the commissioning engineer can connect to both PTP 800s in the following ways: • On the bench, via a local router: Configure and test the final data port configuration “on the bench”. Access for commissioning will be available from a port on a locally connected switch or router. This has the advantage that simultaneous access is possible to both the CMUs being installed. • On the bench, via the management network: As above, but with a connection to a management centre (not across the wireless link being installed) where a co-worker is able to configure and control the PTP 800 units. • Using out-of-band: Install the CMUs using out-of-band management and configure in- band management on site. However, a protection splitter is required and the management setup needs to be reconfigured. Errors could cause loss of the management connection. • Using a local PC: Use in-band management and connect a PC locally to the copper data port. This is possible if VLAN tagging is disabled. Some reconfiguration may be needed, but if the data network is not fully commissioned this could be an alternative. It is recommended that in the final configuration VLAN tagging is enabled. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 6-9
  • 436. Task 2: Configuring IP and Ethernet interfaces Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment Configuring the IP interface and management mode The IP interface allows users to connect to the PTP 800 web interface, either from a locally connected computer or from a management network. Before setting Management Mode to ‘Out-of-Band’ or ‘In-Band’, ensure that the local and remote CMUs are configured with different IP addresses, otherwise the management agent will not be able to distinguish the two CMUs. Similarly for a 1+1 Hot Standby link, all four CMUs must be configured with different IP addresses so that the active and inactive units may be distinguished as well as the local and remote CMUs. Forcing Ethernet configuration is a last resort that should only be selected if problems are experienced with auto-negotiation. The Ethernet Auto Negotiation and Auto Neg Advertisement attributes must have the same settings in the CMU and in connected network equipment. If they are not consistent, then a duplex mismatch will occur, resulting in greatly reduced data capacity. The Auto Neg Advertisement data rate must be within the capability of the connected network equipment, otherwise loss of service will occur. To configure the Ethernet link to run at a fixed speed and duplex, leave Ethernet Auto Negotiation set to ‘Enabled’ and set Auto Neg Advertisement to the required speed. To configure the IP interface, proceed as follows: 1 Select menu option System, Configuration, LAN Configuration. The LAN Configuration page is displayed (Figure 116). 2 Review and update the IP interface attributes (Table 219). 3 If Management Mode has been set to ‘Out-of-Band Local’ or ‘Out-of-Band’, review and update the management port attributes (Table 220). 4 Review and update the data port attributes (Table 221). 5 Review and update the bridging attributes (Table 222). 6 Select Submit Updated System Configuration.

PTP 800 Series User Guide Task 2: Configuring IP and Ethernet interfaces Attribute Meaning Management Mode ‘Out-of-Band Local’ means that the web interface can be reached from the management port at the local CMU only. This mode allows the construction of a management network that is isolated from the customer network. This is the default mode. For more information, see Out-of-band local management on page 1-44. ‘Out-of-Band’ means that the web interface can be reached from the management port at both the local and remote CMUs (assuming that the wireless link is established). For a 1+1 Hot Standby link, configuration access to the remote inactive unit requires connectivity between the management ports. For more information, see Out-of-band management on page 1-44. If ‘Out-of-Band’ is selected, remember to set the Management Committed Information Rate (Table 222). ‘In-Band’ means that the web interface can be reached from the data port at both the local and remote CMUs (assuming that the wireless link is established). In this mode, the management port is disabled. For a 1+1 Hot Standby link, connectivity must be provided between the CMU data ports by the customer’s network. For more information, see In-band management on page 1-45.

  • 477. PTP 800 Series User Guide Task 6: Configuring protection Configuring 1+1 Hot Standby links Before configuring CMUs which are part of a 1+1 Hot Standby link, it is strongly advised that a label is attached to the CMU identifying the IP Address, the Site Name and whether it is to be configured as Primary or Secondary. It should also be very clear which site is required to transmit on the High side of the FDD frequency plan and which is required to transmit at the low side. Depending on the configuration, a CMU labelled Primary must eventually be connected to one of the following: • The ODU which is connected to the arm of the coupler labelled Main. • The ODU which is connected to the antenna with the highest gain. • The left hand transceiver in an IRFU. For background information, see 1+1 Hot Standby link protection on page 1-64. Before configuring the CMUs, ensure that the following information is known. • Which CMU is to be configured as Primary and which unit is to be configured as Secondary. This is controlled by the Primary Secondary Mode attribute. • Whether the end is to be installed with one or two antennas. This is controlled by the Number of Antennas attribute. • Whether the method of connection to the Ethernet switch is via Fiber-Y. This is controlled by the Fiber-Y attribute. (see Network configurations for 1+1 on page 2-43 for details about Fiber-Y). • Whether the Primary Recovery feature should be enabled and if so, the value of Primary Recovery Period. If the Primary has become Inactive for any reason, for example a previous fault, this feature automatically forces the Primary to become active again if it has been fault free for a configurable period of time defined by the Primary Recovery Period. This only needs to be configured on the CMU configured as Secondary. • Whether an Ethernet port down alert is required on each protection switch. This is controlled by the Protection Switch Alert attribute. Enabling this feature is only of benefit in complex networks, for example where a 1+1 Hot Standby link forms part of a ring network architecture. This should normally remain disabled. • Whether Receive Diversity is to be enabled (see Planning for Receive Diversity on page 2-46 for planning of this feature). This is controlled by the protection attribute. • If Receive Diversity is to be enabled, ensure that the values for the Rx Diversity TPID (Tag Protocol Identifier) and the Rx Diversity VID (VLAN identifier) are known. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 6-51
  • 478. Task 6: Configuring protection Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment Before upgrading existing links from unprotected to protected, complete the following prerequisites: • Configure the new CMUs as primary or secondary units by setting the Primary Secondary Mode attribute. • For a new primary CMU, ensure that wireless transmission is disabled by selecting Mute Transmitter. This prevents possible interference with the existing operational unit. • Attach ‘Primary” or ‘Secondary’ labels as appropriate to the new CMUs. • Set Fault Protection Switching to ‘Disabled’. This prevents fault protection switches occurring during installation. To configure protection, proceed as follows: 1 Select menu option System, Configuration, Protection. The Protection Configuration page is displayed (Figure 136). 2 If the Transmitter attribute is set to ‘Enabled’, there may be a safety requirement to disable wireless transmission. If so, select Mute Transmitter.

  • 481. PTP 800 Series User Guide Task 6: Configuring protection If a CMU is set to primary when a coupler is used, it must be connected to the ODU on the MAIN side of the coupler. This is especially important for an asymmetric coupler where the performance of the MAIN unit will be enhanced. In this case, Primary Recovery Period should be set to a non-zero value to maximize the use of the Main Path. If antenna protection is used and the two antennas are not the same, then the CMU connected to the more powerful antenna must be the primary. In this case, for optimum link performance, Primary Recovery Period must also be set to a non-zero value. Table 229 Protection Configuration attributes Attribute Meaning Transmitter If the transmitter is set to ‘Muted’, the RFU will not radiate and the CMU will not forward Ethernet frames between the wireless interface and the Ethernet ports. This applies in all conditions. If the transmitter is set to ‘Enabled’, the RFU is allowed by the user to radiate and the CMU is allowed by the user to forward Ethernet frames between the wireless interface and the Ethernet ports. However, other factors may still prevent this, for example if the unit is the inactive unit at an end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link. This attribute does not indicate whether the unit is actually radiating and forwarding Ethernet Frames, but is a configuration attribute allowing the unit to radiate and forward traffic if other factors permit. To see if the unit is actually radiating and forwarding traffic, examine the Transmitter Status attribute on the Status page. Protection For a 1+1 Hot Standby link, set this to: ‘Hot Standby 1+1’ ‘Hot Standby 1+1 with Rx Diversity’ For all other link types, set this to 'Disabled'. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 6-55
  • 482. Task 6: Configuring protection Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment Attribute Meaning Fault Protection Switching This must be set to ‘Enabled’ for the normal 1+1 operation. When this is set to ‘Disabled’, a protection switch will not occur when a fault is detected on the active unit. With this setting, the user still has the ability to change which unit is active. This setting can be useful during installation or maintenance operations where the user wishes to have full control of which unit is active. When this is set to ‘Enabled’, a protection switch will occur when a fault is detected on the active unit. Primary Secondary mode Allows the user to configure the CMU as Primary or Secondary. The CMU configured as Primary is the preferred unit in that it will become the active unit unless it is faulty. In the case where the two ODUs at an end have a different path loss, for example where they are coupled to a common antenna using an Asymmetric Coupler Mounting Kit (see Coupler mounting kits on page 1-30), the CMU configured as Primary should be connected to the RFU with the lowest path loss. Fiber-Y This must be only configured as ‘Enabled’ if the neighboring CMUs at an end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link are connected to the network using the Optical Y Splitter Kit (see Installing a Fiber-Y interface on page 5-92). For all other network connections, this must be set to ‘Disabled’. If a CMU is being replaced in an otherwise working 1+1 Hot Standby link, the Fiber must not be physically connected to the CMU unless Fiber-Y has already been configured as ‘Enabled’. If the fiber is connected before enabling Fiber-Y, the 1+1 link will not bridge customer data until it is enabled. Number of Antennas Set this to the number of antennas to be installed at this end of the link. 6-56 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 483. PTP 800 Series User Guide Task 6: Configuring protection Attribute Meaning Primary Recovery If Primary Recovery is set to ‘Enabled’ and the active unit is the Secondary unit, the Primary unit will become active if it has been fault free for a configurable period of time. It is the Secondary unit which controls if the Primary has been fault free for a sufficiently long period of time and so this option is only available on a unit configured as Secondary. Primary Recovery Period This allows the user to configure how long the Primary unit must be free of faults before the Primary takes over as the active unit (see Primary Recovery). Protection Switch Alert This provides the option for alerting to the Ethernet switch that a protection switch has occurred. This is done by the CMU momentarily (between 0.5 and 1 second) disabling the Ethernet port on the newly active unit. For most network deployments, this would normally be set to ‘Disabled’. Setting this to ‘Enabled’ may however be useful in complex networks where the network design is to allow an alternative route to bridge the traffic following a protection switch. Rx Diversity TPID The Inactive unit sends special Receive Diversity Ethernet Frames to the Active unit via the Ethernet Switch. These frames must be configured to be tagged as either C-TAG or S-TAG frames. Rx Diversity VID The Inactive unit sends special Receive Diversity Ethernet Frames to the Active unit via the Ethernet Switch.

  • 484. Task 6: Configuring protection Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment Upgrading an unprotected link to 1+1 Hot Standby This section describes how to upgrade an existing unprotected link to use the 1+1 Hot Standby link protection feature. Although the disruption to an existing link can be minimized, this process cannot be carried out without interrupting the operation of the link. The following actions will interrupt link operation: • Upgrading the software. This can be carried out in advance of hardware installation. Alternatively during the installation after the inactive units have been installed and when the inactive units are providing an operational link, the existing units may be upgraded and configured. • Installing a second ODU on the coupler if a single antenna is used at each end. • Aligning antennas when antenna protection is implemented. As the new antennas operate on the same frequencies as the existing ones, alignment cannot be performed while the existing antennas run an operational link. • Other operations if working close to an antenna. • Testing that the protection is working correctly by forcing protection switchovers. If configuration is carried out on site, then before the new units are taken to site, radio transmission should be inhibited as described in Disabling wireless transmission on page 7-32. This prevents possible interference with the existing operational unit. 6-58 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

These tasks may be performed after installation, if preferred. 2 In the field, upgrade the operational CMUs to the latest software version by performing Task 4: Upgrading software version on page 6-22. 3 In the field, configure the operational CMUs for protected operation by performing Task 6: Configuring protection on page 6-50. If this is done in advance of installation of the new CMUs, the PTP 800 will still be operational and the wireless link can operate with single units, but alarms will be issued due to the absence of protecting units. The Protected link page is now available with local and remote ends shown as unprotected, see Viewing the status of a 1+1 Hot Standby link on page 7-33. 4 Install and test the new hardware by following the relevant procedures in this chapter. 5 Align the antennas and complete the configuration. Perform the following tasks from Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment: from Task 12: Aligning antennas on page 6-96, to Task 15: Connecting link to the network on page 6-112. 6 Initiate a protection switch so that the link is running Primary to Primary. If primary recovery is set, the units will switch automatically after the timer has expired. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 6-59

Task 12: Aligning antennas Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment Task 12: Aligning antennas Use the Installation Wizard to set the system into alignment mode, to achieve the lowest possible link loss through correct antenna alignment, and to report on the performance of the configured link. Do not start antenna alignment until it is safe for the antennas to radiate RF, that is, until the antennas and ODUs have been installed on the masts or poles and no personnel are in front of the antennas. For background on the alignment process, refer to Introduction to antenna alignment on page 6-96. Check that the requirements in Prerequisites for alignment on page 6-97 have been met. For a 1+1 Hot Standby link with two antennas at each end of the link, perform Aligning protected antennas on page 6-97. For an unprotected link, or for a 1+1 Hot Standby link that uses ODU couplers, perform Aligning a pair of antennas on page 6-98. Introduction to antenna alignment Licensed microwave links use parabolic dish antennas which have narrow beam widths ranging from 4.7° down to 0.5°. Beam width depends on antenna gain, larger gain antennas having narrower beam widths. It is most important that all PTP 800 antennas are precisely aligned at the centre of the main beam. If antennas are not aligned at the centre of the main beam, performance will be dramatically reduced. The alignment process requires the elevation angle (vertical plane) and azimuth angle (horizontal plane) to be adjusted. Antenna assemblies provide a mechanism for independently adjusting in both planes whilst the antenna mounting bracket is securely mounted to the mast. Please refer to the instructions provided with the antenna. Alignment is achieved by monitoring the receive signal strength indicator (RSSI). This is provided at the RFU BNC socket in the form of a dc voltage (RSSI Voltage). 6-96 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 523. PTP 800 Series User Guide Task 12: Aligning antennas Prerequisites for alignment Before starting alignment, check that the following requirements have been met: • The antennas, cables and CMUs have been installed at both ends of the link. • A link planning report is available (for example, from LINKPlanner). It should include predicted RSSI voltage ranges (or received signal levels) and bearings for both ends of the link. If the report specifies predicted receive signal levels (dBm) but not voltages, then convert dBm to volts using the formula or graph in RSSI output on page 4-5. • Two voltmeters with BNC connectors are available. • No personnel are in front of the antennas. Aligning protected antennas For a 1+1 Hot Standby link with two antennas at each end of the link, align each of the following three pairs by following Aligning a pair of antennas on page 6-98: 1 Align the ‘Tx Hi’ primary antenna to the ‘Tx Lo’ primary antenna. Do not make any further adjustments to the two primary antennas. 2 Align the ‘Tx Hi’ secondary antenna to the (now fixed) ‘Tx Lo’ primary antenna. 3 Align the ‘Tx Lo’ secondary antenna to the (now fixed) ‘Tx Hi’ primary antenna. Step 1 should be performed first, but step 3 can be performed before step 2, if preferred. Aligning dual-polar antennas Alignment should be performed with either the Horizontal units muted or Vertical units muted. The RSSI should be taken on link not muted. After alignment, the difference in receive power should be within tolerance of Link Planner. For more information, refer to the antenna manufacturer’s instructions. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 6-97

For more information, see Connecting to the PC and powering up on page 6-6 and Logging into the web interface on page 6-6. When the Start Alignment option is selected, the Installation Wizard automatically enables wireless transmission in alignment mode. Antennas are aligned by monitoring RFU output voltage and receive power. Align each pair of antennas by using Step 5, Step 6 and Step 7 of the Installation Wizard, as described in the following procedures: • Step 5: Starting antenna alignment on page 6-98 • Step 6: Aligning antennas on page 6-98 • Step 7: Completing alignment on page 6-103 Step 5: Starting antenna alignment At both link ends, check that the Step 5: Start Antenna Alignment page is displayed (Figure 150). If necessary, select menu option Installation Wizard and click through Steps 1 to 4 of the wizard. Step 6: Aligning antennas Select Start Alignment at both link ends. The Step 6: Antenna Alignment page is displayed (Figure 166). In the Step 6: Antenna Alignment page (Figure 166 and Figure 169), Transmit Power, Receive Power, Vector Error and Link Loss are presented as an array of four elements. These elements represent the maximum, mean, minimum and latest values respectively. The maximum, mean and minimum are calculated over a running one hour period. During the alignment process, ensure that antenna waveguide and coaxial components are not strained beyond their minimum bend radii. 6-98 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)

  • 526. Task 12: Aligning antennas Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment Aligning one end Align the antenna at one end of the link while keeping the antenna at the other end of the link stationary. To find the correct elevation and azimuth angles at one end, proceed as follows: 1 Perform a complete sweep of the elevation range of the antenna by adjusting the elevation angle incrementally. The extent of the sweep depends upon antenna gain. Measure RSSI voltage at each point in the sweep. 2 The resulting plot of voltage against elevation should be symmetrical. Record the elevation angle that appears to be at the axis of symmetry, as this is likely to be the correct angle for aligning with the other antenna (Figure 167). Figure 167 shows the axis of symmetry occurring at a voltage ‘peak’. However, it is possible for the axis of symmetry (and therefore the correct elevation angle) to occur at a voltage ‘trough’ (Figure 168). 3 Set the elevation angle to the axis of symmetry, as identified in the plot. 4 Perform a complete sweep of the azimuth range of the antenna and record the resulting plot of voltage against azimuth. 5 Set azimuth angle to the centre of the range over which the maximum RSSI voltage is recorded.

Record the RSSI voltage at both ends of the link. If the voltage at either end of the link is not in the range predicted by the planning report, repeat alignment until this is the case. Post-alignment actions In a 1+1 Hot Standby link, the tolerances in the ODUs may result in the Receive Power delta between the primary and secondary units at same end of the link being different from the delta predicted by the network designer. Configurations using a single antenna may have up to ±5 dB additional delta when compared with the design value. Where separate antennas are used, the tolerances may increase if either path incurs any Excess Path Loss. When alignment is complete at both ends, proceed as follows: 1 At each end of the link in turn, lock off and tighten all the adjustment bolts as per the instructions provided with the antenna and check that the RSSI voltage does not change. If it does change, repeat alignment for the affected end. 2 Check that the following requirements are met: RSSI voltage at both ends is within the range predicted by the planning report. Wireless Link Status is ‘Up’ (green) (Figure 169). Receive Power at both end is within the range predicted by the planning report (Figure 169). 3 If any of the above requirements are not met, antenna alignment is not complete; refer to troubleshooting section Installing the link on page 8-9. 4 If all of the above requirements are met, select Alignment Complete (Figure 169). 5 If antenna alignment cannot be performed now and must be deferred, select Abandon Alignment.

  • 534. Task 13: Reviewing configuration and performance Chapter 6: Configuration and alignment Comparing actual to predicted performance For at least one hour of operation after alignment is complete, the link should be monitored to check that it is achieving predicted levels of performance. To check performance, select menu option System, Statistics. The System Statistics and Counters page is displayed (Figure 194). Monitor the following attributes: • Link Loss • Transmit Data Rate • Receive Data Rate • Receive Power: To maintain error free communication, ensure that the average operational receive power, using ATPC if enabled, does not exceed -35 dBm. If the receive power exceeds -35d Bm, enable ATPC if currently disabled. Alternatively, reduce the maximum transmit power at the other end of the link to reduce the receive power to the normal operating level. If absolutely necessary the receive power level can be reduced by adding a fixed waveguide attenuator, which requires a remote mount antenna. PTP LINKPlanner provides the prediction in the form of an installation report. In a 1+1 Hot Standby link, the tolerances in the ODUs may result in the Receive Power delta between the primary and secondary units at same end of the link being different from the delta predicted by the network designer.

The network management system will normally be geographically remote from the site, so it may be necessary to request that this action is completed by co- workers at the management centre. Alternatively, it may be possible to use remote login to the management system. For testing the remote end of a link with in-band management, the wireless link may need to be operational first. 4 Check that the data network operates correctly across the wireless link. This may be by requesting ICMP echo response packets between hosts in the connected network segments, or by some more structured use of network testing tools. 5 For a 1+1 Hot Standby link: Initiate a protection switch at one end of the link (as described in Forcing protection switches on page 7-37) and check that the data network operates correctly across the wireless link (as described in the previous step).

  • 564. Managing alarms and events Chapter 7: Operation The alarms are defined as follows: <attribute name> Neighbor Compatibility Definition: In order for a 1+1 Hot Standby link end to be correctly protected, a number of key attributes must be configured to be compatible in the two neighbor CMUs. If a key attribute is configured to be mismatched, an associated alarm will be displayed on the Home page of both neighbor CMUs. Each alarm has the form <attribute name> neighbor compatibility, for example ‘Radio License Tx Freq Neighbor Compatibility’ indicates that the Radio License Tx Freq is different for the neighbor CMUs. Cause and action: Correct the attribute which is indicating the mismatch. Alignment mode Definition: The CMU is in alignment mode. Cause and action: This should only occur during installation or maintenance when the wireless link is being aligned. To take a unit out of alignment mode, access the Installation Wizard (see Task 7: Configuring wireless interface on page 6-60). Data port configuration mismatch Definition: The Ethernet configuration of the data port is not compatible with the connected network equipment. Cause and action: This is probably due to a configuration error such as an auto- negotiation or forced configuration mismatch. Data port disabled warning Definition: The fiber and copper data port has been disabled by means of the SNMP MIB. Cause and action: The port has been disabled by a network management system. The web browser provides no means of disabling this port. Data Port Ethernet Speed Status Definition: In a 1+1 Hot Standby configuration, this indicates if the Ethernet Speed of the Data port is below that of its neighbor. For example, where the Data Port has negotiated at 100BASE-T but the neighbor has negotiated at 1000BASE-T. Cause and action: This could be due to a difference between the configuration of the Data ports of the neighbor CMUs (see LAN Configuration page) or in the configuration of the two ports at the network equipment. A fault in the Ethernet cable could also cause an Ethernet port to negotiate at a lower speed. 7-16 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 565. PTP 800 Series User Guide Managing alarms and events Data port fiber status Definition: Reports the status of the fiber data port. Cause and action: There are two possible causes: • The interface could not be established even though a fiber carrier was detected. This could be due to a broken TX fiber, or because the interface is disabled at the other end of the fiber link. • The interface could not be established and no fiber carrier is detected. Data port status Definition: The status of the data port, either fiber or copper link. Cause and action: See Table 254 for values and their meanings. Encryption Enabled Mismatch Definition: Encryption has been enabled on one end of the wireless link but not the other. Cause and action: This is probably due to an encryption configuration error. Reconfigure encryption. End Wireless Receive Signal Status Definition: This indicates if the end, consisting of two neighbor CMUs and two neighbor RFUs, are able to demodulate the transmit signal from the remote end of the link. For a 1+1 Hot Standby link with Rx Diversity enabled, both neighbors must be unable to demodulate the signal before this indicates a value of Not Detected. For 1+1 Hot Standby link where Rx Diversity is disabled, this indicates a value of Not Detected only if the active CMU cannot demodulate the signal. Cause and action: If this alarm is unaccompanied by other alarms, the cause will often be due to a deep fade of the wireless channel. This could be caused by many environmental effects such as rain fades in the higher frequency bands or ducting for long links where Spatial Rx Diversity is not deployed. FCC capacity check Definition: The Transmit Capacity Limit of the unit (lower of license key and negotiated Ethernet speed at remote end) is below the appropriate level required by FCC Part 101.141. Cause and action: This is probably due to a configuration error or the wrong license being applied to one of the CMUs. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 7-17
  • 566. Managing alarms and events Chapter 7: Operation Fips Operational Mode Alarm Definition: The unit is FIPS 140-2 capable, but has not been configured correctly for FIPS 140-2 operation. Cause and action: • ‘FIPS mode is not configured’: The Security Wizard has not been completed. • ‘FIPS mode is configured, but not active’: The Security Wizard has been completed, but the HTTP and Telnet management interfaces have not been disabled. Licensed Transmit Capacity Status Definition: In a 1+1 Hot Standby configuration, this indicates that the Licensed Transmit Capacity is below that of its neighbor. Cause and action: This is probably due to a configuration error or the wrong license being applied to one of the CMUs. Link name mismatch Definition: The link names at each end of the wireless link do not match. Cause and action: The link name is configured differently at each end of the wireless link. This may be because of: • A configuration error in defining the link name at one of the PTP 800s, see Step 1: Enter equipment details on page 6-62; • This unit is aligned to the wrong link partner. Management port configuration mismatch Definition: The Ethernet configuration of the management port is not compatible with the connected network equipment. Cause and action: This is probably due to a configuration error such as an auto- negotiation or forced configuration mismatch. See Configuring the IP interface and management mode on page 6-10. Management port disabled warning Definition: The management port has been disabled by means of the SNMP MIB. Cause and action: The port has been disabled by a network management system. The web browser provides no means of disabling this port. 7-18 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 567. PTP 800 Series User Guide Managing alarms and events Management Port Ethernet Speed Status Definition: In a 1+1 Hot Standby configuration, this indicates if the Ethernet Speed of the Management port is below that of its neighbor. For example, where the Management port has negotiated at 10BASE-T but the neighbor has negotiated at 100BASE-T. Cause and action: This could be due to a difference between the configuration of the Management ports of the neighbor CMUs (see LAN configuration page) or in the configuration of the two ports at the network equipment. A fault in the Ethernet cable could also cause an Ethernet port to negotiate at a lower speed. Management port status Definition: The status of the management port if out-of-band management is being used. Cause and action: See Table 255 for values and their meanings. Protection Availability Status Definition: This indicates if an end of a 1+1 Hot Standby link is not protected, for example due to the inactive unit exhibiting a fault, the protection cable being disconnected, the configuration of the inactive unit being incompatible with that of the active unit, or Fault Protection Switching being set to disabled. If the end is not protected, the active unit will indicate 'Not Protected' and the inactive unit will indicate ‘Not Protecting’. Cause and action: If a unit is indicating that it is not protected or not protecting, check the following: • Check that the configuration of the two neighbors is compatible. See <attribute name> neighbor compatibility. • Check that the transmitter of the inactive unit is not muted. This is controlled on the Configuration page or the Protection Page. • Check that the two neighbors are not in Alignment Mode (See Alignment Mode (top of this table)). • Check that Fault Protection Switching is Enabled. This can be set from the Protection Configuration page or the Protected Link Management page. • Check that the Protection Interface is operating correctly (see Protection Interface Status) • Check that the inactive unit is not exhibiting any faults. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 7-19

The assembly consists of two fans and if one fan fails, the this will report partial failure. If both fans fail, this will report total failure. Cause and action: This is a failure of the IRFU fan assembly. Please inform Customer Support of this alarm. 7-20 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 569. PTP 800 Series User Guide Managing alarms and events RFU High Temperature Definition: This indicates when the temperature of the IRFU transceiver has risen above either of two thresholds: • If the temperature exceeds the High Temperature threshold, the transmit power may reduce. • If the temperature exceeds the Very High Temperature threshold, the transceiver will mute the transmitter. Cause and action: This could be caused by failure of the IRFU transceiver fan assembly. Check if there is an active fan alarm: • If there is no active fan alarm, check that there is nothing obstructing the correct operation of the fan assembly. • If nothing is obstructing the fan assembly, ensure that the IRFU has been installed correctly and in an environment which is in line with specifications. RFU RF Switch Definition: For a 1+1 IRFU, both the Primary and Secondary transceivers transmit but the energy from only one of the transceivers is switched to the antenna via an RF switch. The RF switch resides in the branching unit of the IRFU. This alarm is displayed if the RF switch fails to switch. Cause and action: The most likely cause is a failure of the IRFU RF Switch. Please inform Customer Support of this alarm. RFU RF Switch Cable Definition: For a 1+1 IRFU, both the Primary and Secondary transceivers transmit but the energy from only one of the transceivers is switched to the antenna via an RF switch. The RF switch resides in the branching unit of the IRFU and connects to each transceiver with a separate cable. This alarm is raised if the transceiver cannot detect the RF Switch. Cause and action: The most likely cause is that the cable connecting the transceiver to the RF switch is faulty or disconnected. RFU Rx IF Synth Lock Definition: This indicates a failure of the Rx IF synthesizer in the RFU. Cause and action: This is a failure of the RFU hardware. Please inform Customer Support of this alarm. phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012) 7-21

Cause and action: This is a failure of the RFU hardware. Please inform Customer Support of this alarm. RFU Status Definition: The status of the RFU. Cause and action: The possible values for this attribute are shown in Table 250. If the value is set to Fault, there will be another RFU alarm condition displayed indicating the detail of the fault. RFU Tx IF Synth Lock Definition: This indicates a failure of the Tx IF synthesizer in the RFU. Cause and action: This is a failure of the RFU hardware. Please inform Customer Support of this alarm. RFU Tx RF Synth Lock Definition: This indicates a failure of the Tx RF synthesizer in the RFU. Cause and action: This is a failure of the RFU hardware. Please inform Customer Support of this alarm. Rx Diversity Availability Status Definition: Receive Diversity is enabled but not operating. Cause and action: • The Inactive CMU is not operating. Check that it is powered up and can be managed. • The neighbor CMU does not have Rx Diversity enabled. Check the value of the protection attribute. • The neighbor CMUs are configured with incompatible attribute values. Check for any outstanding configuration attributes <attribute Name> Neigbor Compatibility and correct the mismatch. • The RFU of the Inactive unit is faulty or not responding to the CMU. Check that there is no outstanding RFU Status alarm. • The IF cable between Inactive CMU and RFU is faulty.

Check that there is no outstanding Protection Interface Status alarm. 7-22 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
  • 571. PTP 800 Series User Guide Managing alarms and events • The Data Port of either CMU is not connected or has not negotiated at 1000 Mbps. Check that there is no outstanding Rx Diversity Data Port Status alarm on either CMU. • If none of the above conditions exist but Rx Diversity Availability is still indicating a problem, the likely cause is the configuration of the Rx Diversity VLAN in the Ethernet Switch. Check that the Ethernet Switch is configured correctly to ensure that Rx Diversity Ethernet Frames are bridged between the Inactive and Active. Rx Diversity Data Port Status Definition: For Rx Diversity to operate, the Data Port of both the Active and Inactive CMU must be negotiated at 1000 Mbps. This attribute is displayed if this is not the case. Cause and action: • There is a problem with the Ethernet Cable. Check that the Data Port Status of both neighbor CMUs is indicating that the port has negotiated at 1000 Mbps Full Duplex. • The Active or Inactive CMU has been configured to prevent operation at 1000 Mbps. Check that the Data Port Copper Auto Negotiation is set to enabled and that Data Port Copper Auto Neg Advertisement includes 1000 Mbps Full Duplex. These are available on the LAN Configuration page. • The Ethernet Switch is configured to prevent operation at 1000 Mbps. • If operating with Fiber-Y,the Data Port of the Inactive CMU has trained with fiber. This is incorrect for Fiber-Y. Check that the value of Data Port Status is set to Copper Link Up. This is displayed on the Status Page. If this is not the case, check that copper Data Port is also connected to the Ethernet Switch as well as the Fiber-Y cable. SNTP Synchronization Failed Definition: SNTP has been enabled but the unit is unable to synchronize with the specified SNTP server.

Managing alarms and events Chapter 7: Operation Wireless Receive Signal Status Definition: The Wireless Receive Signal Status indicates if the receiver is able to demodulate the transmit signal from the remote end of the link. Cause and action: If this alarm is unaccompanied by other alarms, the cause will often be due to a deep fade of the wireless channel. This could be caused by many environmental effects such as rain fades in the higher frequency bands or ducting for long links. Managing email alerts The management agent can be configured to generate alerts by electronic mail when certain events occur. The email message configuration procedure is described in Task 9: Configuring alarms and messages on page 6-87. The alerts mirror the SNMP traps defined in Table 257. Managing SNMP traps The PTP 800 supports SNMP v2 remote management and provides a comprehensive range of alarms. Table 257 lists the SNMP traps that the PTP 800 supports, their significance and possible causes. The SNMP configuration procedure is described in Task 9: Configuring alarms and messages on page 6-87. The traps may be disabled totally or individual traps disabled.

To change the AES encryption key for a 1+1 Hot Standby link, proceed as follows: 1 Disable local and remote protection switching, as described in Enabling and disabling fault protection on page 7-43. 2 Force a protection switch at the local end of the wireless link, as described in Forcing protection switches on page 7-37, so that the link is operating between a primary and a secondary unit. 3 Change AES Encryption keys for both inactive PTP 800 units, as defined in Unprotected link on page 7-54. If an incorrect encryption key is entered at the remote end, then it may be necessary to go to the remote end to correct the encryption key. 7-54 phn-2513_001v000 (Apr 2012)
