IntroductionTsunami® 800 and 8000 Series - Hardware Installation Guide 131.2 Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO)Proxim’s Point-to-point and Point-to-multipoint devices support Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna technologythat uses multiple antennas at both the transmitter and receiver to improve communication performance. The underlyingtechnology of Proxim’s product radios are based on a combination of MIMO and OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency DivisionMultiplexing). MIMO-OFDM combination radios solve interference, fading and multi-path problems. On the receiver side,having multiple receivers increases the amount of received power and also reduces multi-path problems by combining thereceived signals for each frequency component separately. Hence, MIMO significantly improves the overall gain.MIMO also uses Spatial multiplexing transmission technique to transmit independent and separately encoded data signalsfrom each of the multiple transmit antennas while reusing or multiplexing in the space dimension. These independent datasignals are called Spatial streams. The transmitting antenna uses multiple radio Tx chains and signal paths to simultaneouslytransmit different data streams, whereas the receiver combines the Rx signals resulting in higher throughput.By increasing the number of receiving and transmitting antennas, the throughput of the channel increases linearly resulting inhigh spectral efficiency.

800 Series - Hardware Overview and InstallationTsunami® 800 and 8000 Series - Hardware Installation Guide 15Figure 2-2 MP-825-SUR-50+ / MP-825-BS3-100/ QB-825-EPR-50+A detailed description about the various components of the device are explained in the following sections.2.1.1.1 Gigabit Ethernet PortThe device comes with one auto-sensing 10/100/1000 BASE-T Ethernet port with configurable Tx modes and speeds.The Gigabit Ethernet port (PoE IN and Data) of the device allows the user to connect to the LAN by using Cat5e/Cat6 Ethernetcable, and also power ON the device by using the Power over Ethernet (PoE) Injector supplied with the product package.The device receives 48 VDC via a a standard Cat5e/Cat6 cable connected between the PoE and the device.Maximum power supplied to the device is 32 Watts and the device typically draws 10 Watts.Above 0° Celsius internal temperature, the device need not regulate its temperature, so the power drawn is generally lower inthis temperature range. When the internal temperature gets close to the limits, the device starts to heat itself and the powerdraw increases. Powering the device when it is cold, triggers a special self-heat mode where the device is inoperable until theinternal temperature is above -20° Celsius. This is signaled by a solid yellow LED on the Ethernet connector. Once the internaltemperature is above -20° Celsius, the device boots normally.2.1.1.2 Serial PortThe Serial Port is used for debugging and management and GPS Sync (Only for BSU).The serial connection is established with an RJ11 to DB9 connector (also referred to as a “dongle”) by connecting the RJ11end of the dongle connector to the device and the other end to your Personal Computer.Recommended Ethernet Cable SpecificationsType Cat5e/Cat6, STP, 24 AWG, UL rated, UV-shielded and outdoor-ratedImpedance 100 ohmsCable Length 330 feet / 100 meters: The total length of cabling between the Personal Computer and the device cannot exceed 100 meters (includes cable from the Personal Computer to the PoE, and the cable from the PoE to the device. Due to DC power requirements, the maximum cable length between the PoE Injector and the device is 75 meters.

When the internal temperature gets close to the limits, the device starts to heat itself and the powerdraw increases. Powering the device when it is cold, triggers a special self-heat mode where the device is inoperable until theinternal temperature is above -20° Celsius. This is signaled by a solid yellow LED on the Ethernet connector. Once the internaltemperature is above -20° Celsius, the device boots normally.: Always use a straight cable from PoE to the device. When you use a 4-pair cross over ethernet cable, the reload functionality gets activated and forcibly deletes the operating image.Recommended Ethernet Cable SpecificationsType Cat5e/Cat6, STP, 24 AWG, UL rated, UV-shielded and outdoor-ratedImpedance 100 ohmsCable Length 330 feet / 100 meters: The total length of cabling between the Personal Computer and the device cannot exceed 100 meters (includes cable from the Personal Computer to the PoE, and the cable from the PoE to the device).

8000 Series - Hardware Overview and InstallationTsunami® 800 and 8000 Series - Hardware Installation Guide 56Step 14: Align the AntennasAntenna alignment is the process of physically aligning the antenna of the radio receiver and transmitter to have the bestpossible link established between them. The antenna alignment process is usually performed during installation and aftermajor repairs. If you are installing external antennas, refer to the documentation that accompanies the antenna forinstallation instructions. The device has an audible antenna alignment tool that can be activated by plugging in the supplied RJ11 serial dongle. It isaudible upto 30 minutes. The CLI command enables both audible and numerical feedback as the CLI shows the runningSignal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) values twice a second.The output from the beeper for antenna alignment consists of short beeps with a variable interval. The interval changes withthe SNR level to assist in correctly aligning the antenna. An increase in signal level is indicated by a shorter interval betweenbeeps and a reduction in signal level results in beeps longer apart.The alignment process averages the SNR, which is represented by an average length beep. When a higher SNR is received, thebeep period becomes shorter. A lower SNR results in a longer period between beeps.Figure 3-13 Beep IntervalWhen the antenna is aimed, the beep intuitively represents whether the SNR is rising or falling. The higher the SNR rises, theshorter the period of the beep is heard and the higher the frequency of the beep.

8000 Series - Hardware Overview and InstallationTsunami® 800 and 8000 Series - Hardware Installation Guide 57antenna, SNR averaging settles at the new value and the beeping returns to the average length so the antenna can again beaimed for rising SNR.Aiming is complete if moving in any direction results in a falling SNR value (which can be heard as longer periods betweenbeeps).:The range of the average SNR has been limited to values from 5 to 43; therefore, anything over 43 always results in a short period between beeps and values below 5 always have a long period.The Antenna Alignment Display (AAD) CLI output is disabled automatically 30 minutes after it is enabled to remove the load of extra messages on the wireless interface. The default telnet time-out is 300 seconds (5 minutes). Antenna Alignment CommandsTo enable the antenna alignment display from the CLI prompt, enter the following commands: : Enables display of the local signal, noise and SNR. : Enables display of the remote signal, noise and SNR. : Enables display of local and remote signal, noise and SNR. : Use a flat blade screw driver to disconnect and pull out the Serial cable from the enclosure after the antenna alignment is done. After withdrawing the cables, seal the serial port carefully to avoid water seepage.

8000 Series - Hardware Overview and InstallationTsunami® 800 and 8000 Series - Hardware Installation Guide 70Step 14: Align the AntennaAntenna alignment is the process of physically aligning the antenna of the radio receiver and transmitter to have the bestpossible link established between them. The antenna alignment process is usually performed during installation and aftermajor repairs. If you are installing external antennas, refer to the documentation that accompanies the antenna forinstallation instructions. The device has an audible antenna alignment tool that can be activated by plugging in the supplied RJ11 serial dongle. It isaudible upto 30 minutes. The CLI command enables both audible and numerical feedback as the CLI shows the runningSignal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) values twice a second.The output from the beeper for antenna alignment consists of short beeps with a variable interval. The interval changes withthe SNR level to assist in correctly aligning the antenna. An increase in signal level is indicated by a shorter interval betweenbeeps and a reduction in signal level results in beeps longer apart.The alignment process averages the SNR, which is represented by an average length beep. When a higher SNR is received, thebeep period becomes shorter, A lower SNR results in a longer period between beeps.Figure 3-26 Beep IntervalWhen the antenna is aimed, the beep intuitively represents whether the SNR is rising or falling. The higher the SNR rises, theshorter the period of the beep is heard and the higher the frequency of the beep.When you change the position of the antenna, SNR averaging settles at the new value and the beeping returns to theaverage length so the antenna can again be aimed for rising SNR.Aiming is complete if moving in any direction results in a falling SNR value (which can be heard as longer periods betweenbeeps).:The range of the average SNR has been limited to values from 5 to 43; therefore, anything over 43 always results in a short period between beeps and values below 5 always have a long period.The Antenna Alignment Display (AAD) CLI output is disabled automatically 30 minutes after it is enabled to remove the load of extra messages on the wireless interface. The default telnet time-out is 300 seconds (5 minutes).
