When lit GREEN, Tsunami is powered.The Tsunami radio products do not have an on/off switch.GND This is a test point referenced to chassis ground. This is used in conjunction with thenext two test points to measure voltages related to radio performance.RSL This is a test point that relates to the Received Signal Level (RSL). The voltage ismeasured with a voltmeter (using the GND test point for reference) whichcorresponds to the actual power level of the incoming received signal. While theDISPLAY FAR END button is pressed, this RSL voltage corresponds to the RSL ofthe far-end radio. These measurements are used during installation, maintenanceand troubleshooting. Refer to Figure 3-6 in Section 3-20.LOCALTX PWR This is a test point which corresponds to the output transmit power of the radio. Thevoltage is measured with a voltmeter (using the GND test point for reference) whichcorresponds to the actual power level of the outgoing signal. This measurement isused during installation, maintenance and troubleshooting.This voltage only applies to the near-end and does not allow measurementof the far-end output transmit power, even when the DISPLAY FAR ENDbutton is pressed.There is a receptacle on the front panel to the right of the LOCAL TX PWR test pointwhich is an installation adjustment allowing the output transmit power to beincreased or decreased within the radio's specified limits. Using a small screwdriver,this adjustment is used to set the output power of the transmitter, in accordance tothe path planning.The Tsunami system requires professional installation. Transmitted outputpower limits may apply when using this radio. Consult FCC, IC, GlenayreWestern Multiplex or other regulatory authorities for limits which may apply.See Section 3.13.1 for details on setting output power.

![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGESSEPTEMBER 1999SECTION 2: PRODUCT DESCRIPTION PAGE 2-132.3.5 ConnectionsRF CONNECTIONThe RF port of the Tsunami radio is an N-type female connector that is an integral part of the filterassembly. The filter assembly occupies nearly the entire top half of the front panel. The N-Typeconnector is used to connect the antenna, typically using coaxial transmission line. In some cases,waveguide may be used as the primary transmission line, in which case a waveguide-to-N adapter isrequired.For the Tsunami, 1/2" or 5/8” coaxial cable (LDF4-50 or LDF4.5-50)is recommended. Coaxial cable that is 7/8” or larger can exhibitmoding at 5.8 GHz and is not recommended for 5.8 GHz radios.For waveguide transmission line at 5.8 GHz, EW-52 waveguide isrecommended. EW-63 will also work, but may exhibit more loss.DATA CONNECTIONThe connection for the Fast Ethernet interface that carries the signals in and out of the radio is anRJ45 100BaseT wire connection or ST 100BaseT fiber connection.DC POWER CONNECTIONThe input accepts positive or negative DC power at any voltage between 20 and 63 Volts. Optionally,an AC power adapter can be used.OPTIONAL CONNECTIONSThere are several connections that are not required for operation, but provide additional facilities tothe user.EOWVFThis connection is used to access the electronic orderwire function. This is a facilityfor "telephone" style service from one radio to another. A standard electronictelephone [one with a handset and DTMF (push-button tone) dialing] plugs into thisconnector. The user can dial the orderwire address of the far-end radio (or any radioin the Tsunami network) to establish telephone communication between sites. Thiscommunication does not interrupt or interfere with the other radio communications.The radio link must be operational to use this facility. The orderwire feature can bevery useful for installation, maintenance and troubleshooting.This connector is used to link two Tsunami radios at a repeater site for Orderwireoperation. This would allow orderwire "telephone" calls to and from any point in theTsunami network.The Tsunami orderwire circuit can also be connected to other existingorderwire networks. See Section 3.14.1 for details.ALARM This connector is used for monitoring alarms electrically. The Form C relays can beconnected to other transmission equipment for monitoring alarm status locally orremotely.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-29.png)

![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGESSEPTEMBER 1999SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS PAGE 3-33.3 Before Installation Task ListThere are several tasks that should be accomplished prior to installing the Tsunami radio system.This section briefly describes the following:- Site selection- Line-of-Sight and Path Clearance determination- Anticipated RSL calculation- Fade margin calculation- Availability calculation- Frequency plan determination- Power supply planning- Antenna (and accessories) purchaseOnly directional antennas should be used with Tsunami radios.These are typically flat panel or solid parabolic antennas.Glenayre Western Multiplex recommends a maximumbeamwidth of 10 degrees for directional systems.3.3.1 Site Selection RequirementsThe radio site must have:- access to the appropriate power- close proximity to the telephone or computer system you wish to interconnect- line-of-sight to the other radio location with adequate clearance- location for mounting the antenna](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-35.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 3-4 SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS3.3.2 Line-of-Sight and Path Clearance GuidelinesThe Tsunami radios will not operate properly unless they have line-of-sight between theircorresponding antennas. The Tsunami radio transmission will not pass through trees or otherobstacles. Factors to consider include:- Earth curvature- Future growth of trees- Height of buildingsIn addition to the line-of-sight requirement, a well-engineered path will also have additional pathclearance to allow for signal loss due to partial obstructions, atmospheric ducting and groundreflections. To maximize radio reception, 0.6 times the first Fresnel zone should be calculated andthis distance added to the path clearance (in addition to trees or buildings).](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-36.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGESSEPTEMBER 1999SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS PAGE 3-53.3.3 RSL Calculation and Link BudgetThe received signal level (RSL) can be estimated using the following formula:RSL (dBm) = Pout - FL1+ G1 + G2 - FL2 - Lpwhere: Pout is the transmitter output power (in dBm)FL1 is the feeder loss of the transmit side (in dB)G1 is the gain of the transmit antenna (in dB)G2 is the gain of the receive antenna (in dB)FL2 is the feeder loss of the receive side (in dB)Lp is the Path loss, defined by:Lp (dB) = 96.6 + 20 log10F + 20 log10Dwhere: F = Frequency in GHz (2.4 or 5.8)D = Distance of path in milesThis link budget is very important for determining any potential problems during installation. If youhave calculated the expected RSL, you can see if it has been achieved during installation, andtroubleshoot if necessary.In the USA and Canada, Tsunami radios may be installed with any gain directionalantennas but with a total system limit of +30 dbm EIRP for the 5.3 GHz transmitterchannel frequencies. 5.8 GHz transmitters have an EIRP limit of +53 dBm. For theequation above, replace the Pout - FL1+ G1 by the EIRP limit.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-37.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 3-6 SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS3.3.4 Fade Margin CalculationThe fade margin is the difference between the actual received signal and the radio’s threshold.Using the formula provided in Section 3.3.3, the anticipated RSL can be calculated. Compare thisRSL to the specified threshold of the Tsunami radio (shown in Section 2.2) and calculate the fademargin as the difference between the two signal levels.3.3.5 Availability CalculationAvailability of the microwave path is a measure of the percent of the time that the link will operatewithout producing an excessive BER due to multipath fading. In the absence of direct interference,availability is affected by the following:- Path length- Fade margin- Frequency (5.3 or 5.8 GHz in the case of these Tsunami radios)- Terrain (smooth, average, mountainous)- Climate (dry, temperate, hot/humid)Depending on the type of traffic carried over the link, the system designer may wish to design fora specific availability. For example, if the data or voice traffic that is carried by the radio is criticalthen it may be designed for a very high availability (e.g. 99.999% or 5.3 minutes of outage peryear). To improve availability, for example, the fade margin can be increased by making the pathshorter, or by using higher gain antennas in conjunction with lower loss feeders (by using highquality transmission line or shortening feed length).](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-38.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGESSEPTEMBER 1999SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS PAGE 3-73.3.6 Frequency Plan DeterminationWhen configuring radios in a hub or repeater configuration, careful engineering of the Tsunamiradio frequency plans and antenna locations should be performed in order to minimize potentialinterference between the nearby radios. As a rule of thumb, do not place identical frequency planradios (e.g. two “A” channel radios) at the same site. In most cases, it is desirable to use adifferent frequency plan (e.g. A versus B). However, with careful engineering, placing more thanone radio of the same frequency channel plan at the same site is easily accomplished. In fact, theTsunami frequency plan is designed to allow complex hub configurations that may require re-using the same frequency plan. When designing these types of configurations, antenna size andantenna location are critical. If identical channel plans must be used at the same site, the sameradio channel (e.g. A1 and A1) should be used at a site to minimize interference. Using alternatechannels (e.g. A1 and A2) is less likely to be successful (and therefore not recommended) due tothe high level of transmitter to receiver isolation required from the antenna system.Sometimes it is required to locate the Tsunami radio nearby a transmitter that is the same as, orclose to the Tsunami receive or transmit frequencies. In this case, the Tsunami terminal thatshould be placed closest to this interfering transmitter should be the specific terminal with thereceive frequency which is furthest from this unwanted transmitted frequency. This approachminimizes the potential of interference. While interference conditions are rare when using theTsunami radios, cases of interference may be overcome by exchanging the radios from end toend or simply reinstalling a different filter unit (if applicable), as described in Section 4.2. In somecases, changing frequency plans (e.g. from A to B) can also help mitigate any interference.Section 4.8 of this manual describes interferencecountermeasures in further detail.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-39.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 3-8 SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS3.3.7 Power Supply PlanningThe Tsunami radio must have access to a supply of appropriate power, either DC or AC (if the ACadapter option has been ordered). The Tsunami can be powered from a DC battery system, orfrom a solar or generator power plant, usually with battery reserves. Typically either a positive ornegative ground 24 or 48 volt supply is used. For DC, be sure the cable is of sufficient gauge tocarry the necessary current and it is less than three (3) meters (9.75 feet) in length.Before installing the radio, plan for the continuous power consumption needs in accordance withthe specifications given in Section 2.2 of this manual. It is also wise to plan for backup power forcritical communication circuits (including the Tsunami radio). Backup power allows the radios andassociated equipment to continue operation when primary power is interrupted.3.3.8 Antenna PlanningUsing path planning mathematics, proper antenna size can be determined which will yield thedesired path performance. In general, the larger the antenna that is used with the Tsunami radio,the better the link will perform. Larger antennas have narrower beamwidth and higher gain, whichwill yield better link performance (higher fade margin, better availability) and improve immunity tointerference (due to the smaller beamwidths). However, larger antennas are more costly topurchase and install than smaller antennas, in some cases requiring special equipment forinstallation. All of these factors should be taken into consideration when selecting antennas.In areas where transmitted output power restrictions apply, theuse of larger antennas will maintain the benefit of narrowbeamwidths and receive gain. However, output power may needto be reduced to meet regulations. (See Section 3.13.1)Prior to installation, the specific antenna location and mounting should be determined. Thisadvanced planning also yields the transmission line requirements. Only directional antennas should be used with Tsunamiradios. These can be flat panel or solid parabolic antennas.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-40.png)

Depending on rack configuration, it may be necessary toremove the four adhesive backed rubber feet on the bottom of the unit.The Tsunami radio has internal fans which intake andexhaust on the left and right sides of the chassis. When rackmounting, it is important to leave a small gap between theouter edges of the radio and the inside edge of the rack.The Tsunami radio may alternatively be placed on a table or shelfattached to a wall. Because of the low weight of the Tsunami, anymounting option other than rack mounting will be less secure.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-43.png)

The Tsunamiradios consume less than 1 Amp at ±48V and less than 2 Amps at ±24V. Be sure the DC powercable is less than 3 meters (9.75 feet) in length.Each Tsunami terminal should be externally fused separatelywith a 5 Amp maximum fuse. The DC power cable must beless than three (3) meters in length.If using negative power, connect the negative voltage to pins 1 or 6. Connect the ground returnconnection to pins 3 or 4. See Figure 3-3.If using positive power, connect the positive voltage to pins 3 or 4. Connect the ground returnconnection to pins 1 or 6. See Figure 3-4.The ground connection is available at pins 2 and 5. Either pin may be used to ground the returnside of the power supply. Do not ground both sides of the power supply.Proper grounding, either through the chassis and/or the powersupply, can be very important for protection from lightning. Agrounding screw hole is provided on the rear panel.The ground connection may be left floating if the power supplyis referenced to ground externally and to avoid ground loops insome configurations. However, this may not provide adequategrounding for lightning protection.Use a DVM (digital voltmeter) to verify voltage and polarity on the DC power plug.Do not connect the DC power plug to the rear of the Tsunamiterminal until a load is connected to the antenna port (either anRF pad, or an RF cable and antenna).](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-45.png)

![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 3-16 SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS3.8 Antenna ConnectionThe Tsunami radio is equipped with an N-type female connector at the antenna port located onthe rear panel. A short length (~6 feet) jumper cable such as RG-214 coax (or “pigtail”) fitted withtwo N-type male connectors can be used to connect the antenna port to the antenna transmissionline (see Section 3.9). The recommended cable type for a jumper is RG-214.A low loss 50-ohm cable (for example LDF4-50 1/2 inch coax) or EW-52 waveguide isrecommended for the antenna transmission line between the top of the rack and the antenna. Thereturn loss presented by the transmission line at the top of the rack should be as high as possible(20 dB, minimum recommended). The length of the antenna transmission line should be kept asshort as possible (to minimize losses).To minimize feeder losses, the use of elliptical waveguide is recommended (typical loss is 1.25dB/100 ft) for feeder lengths in excess of 200 feet. Depending on path length and feeder length,1/2 inch or 5/8 inch coax cable can be used.For the Tsunami radio, 1/2” or 5/8” coaxial cable (LDF4-50 orLDF4.5-50) is recommended. Coaxial cable 7/8” or larger canexhibit moding at 5.8 GHz and is not recommended for 5.8 GHzradios. For waveguide transmission line at 5.8 GHz, EW-52waveguide is recommended. EW-63 will also work, but mayexhibit more loss.Do not use right angle N-type connectors with the 5.8 GHzTsunami radios: they may present high loss at 5.8 GHz. Do notuse a low quality N-type jumper cable with the Tsunami. Somecable types, such as RG-8, may have high loss at 5.8 GHz.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-48.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGESSEPTEMBER 1999SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS PAGE 3-173.9 Transmission Line ConnectionThe transmission line feeder (such as LDF4-50 1/2 inch coax cable or EW-52 ellipticalwaveguide) should be prepared first by cutting to the approximate length (allowing some excess)and installing the appropriate connector on the antenna end.The prepared transmission line is then pulled through the cable ducts, trays or conduit (asrequired) to the antenna, while being careful not to kink or damage the transmission line in anyway.The transmission line should be supported in a tray on horizontal runs and by hangers on verticalruns. Hangers should be spaced according to the manufacturer’s instructions (typically every 5feet under conditions of no ice and not greater than 85 mph winds).The transmission line should be grounded using the manufacture’s recommended grounding kit.Grounding kits attach to the outer copper conductor. Grounds must be installed at the antenna, atthe bottom of the tower (if applicable) and where the transmission line enters the building. Longtransmission line runs should be grounded every 100 feet. In areas of high incidence of lightning,dissipaters should be attached to antennas. In addition, coaxial, in-line, spark-gap type, lightningsuppressors should be added at the bottom of the coax cable before entering thebuilding/enclosure.Any in-line lightning protection device must be rated for theoperating frequency of the Tsunami (5.3/5.8 GHz).After installation, the transmission line is terminated with an N-type male connector/adapterattached at the equipment end. For waveguide, this typically requires a CPR-to-N adapter.Prior to operation, the electrical integrity of the transmission line, including all connectors, can bechecked with a simple DC check between the center conductor and outer conductor. (This isneither possible, nor required for waveguide).The transmission line should ideally be connected directly to the antenna at one end and to theTsunami antenna port at the other end. However, short RG-214 type pigtail jumper cables may berequired to avoid sharp bends in the transmission line to limit stress on either connection.7/8 inch coax cable or larger is not recommended for use at 5.3GHz and higher frequencies.Do not use right angle N-type connectors with the 5.3 or 5.8GHz Tsunami radios: they may present high loss at 5.3 or 5.8GHz. Do not use a low quality N-type jumper cable with theTsunami. Some cable types, such as RG-8, may have too higha loss at 5.3 and 5.8 GHz.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-49.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 3-18 SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS3.10 Antenna Installation & AlignmentThe antenna installation consists of permanently mounting the antenna outdoors on a tower,building roof, or other location that provides line-of-sight path clearance to the far-end location. Ingeneral, antennas smaller than 2 feet diameter are not recommended for urban areas due to theirwider beamwidths, which results in higher interference susceptibility.Antennas should be ordered with a suitable mounting kit specific to the site requirements. Forexample, specifying round or angle tower leg adapters, or a roof tripod as necessary.The antenna must be very rigidly mounted, with adequate room for azimuth and elevationadjustment from the rear.The antenna polarization must be the same at both ends of the link, either vertical or horizontal.In general, antenna mountings require a support pipe to which upper and lower support bracketsare attached with “U” bolts. The antenna and optional elevation and azimuth adjustment rods arethen mounted onto the support brackets. The whole structure must be adequately grounded forlightning protection. The antenna system must always be installed according to the manufacturer’sinstructions.Unless special test equipment is available, two operating Tsunami terminals are required to alignthe antennas. Alternatively, a CW generator may be used to transmit a signal toward the endunder alignment.The antenna is coarse aligned using visual sighting and then fine aligned using the receive signallevel (RSL) voltage of the Tsunami.The RSL voltage reading can still be used to peak antennaseven if the radios have not synchronized, however far-end RSLcannot be measured from the near-end terminal until radiosare synchronized.To coarse align the antenna, first set it for flat elevation (no up or down tilt) using a spirit level.Then point it at a heading marker obtained using a compass back-bearing from an adjacentlocation, (ideally, 100 feet or more away from the antenna).If a heading marker cannot be set sufficiently far away (for example when on a city building roof orlooking through a window) then a rough azimuth setting can be obtained by sighting along theantenna feed.Due to the possibility of exposure to RF radiation above the recommendedlevels, do not stand within five (5) feet of the antenna during systemoperation. It is the responsibility of the installer to insure that the antenna isfix-mounted in a place that is not accessible to the public and not pointed ina direction where human exposure may exceed these recommendations.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-50.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGESSEPTEMBER 1999SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS PAGE 3-19It should be verified that both antennas are on the samepolarization by using the manufacturer’s instructions. Otherwisethe RSL will be approximately 25 to 30 dB below the calculatedlevel.Most antennas will also need fine alignment obtained using an operating link because it is veryimportant to maximize the receive RF signal level at each end of the radio link.Read Section 3.7 before applying DC power to the Tsunami radio.Once the coarse alignment has been set-up at both ends, then the link can be powered and somelevel of reliable communication established. The voltage at the Tsunami front panel RSL test pointshould be measured with a DVM to determine the relative receive RF signal level.For the fine alignment, adjusting first the azimuth and then the elevation of the local antenna willmaximize the RSL voltage. Then, the far antenna is aligned in the same way, using the RSLvoltage of its local Tsunami radio.When aligning antennas it may be convenient to run two wires from the RSL and ground testpoints to the antenna so that the voltmeter reading is directly visible to the technicians aligning theantenna. Also, a cellular telephone or two-way radio may be useful for coordinating alignmentactivities between both ends of the link. Once the radios are coarse aligned and synchronized, thebuilt-in orderwire phone service can also be used to coordinate alignment between both ends ofthe link.An orderwire telephone will provide end-to-end voicecommunications once radios are synchronized. Synchronizationusually can be accomplished by coarse alignment only. Aftersynchronization, the orderwire phones can be used to communicatebetween radio sites for antenna fine alignment. The phoneinterconnect cable can be extended to the antenna when desired.The larger the antenna size, the more critical alignment becomes: for example, with a 2 foot dish,the antenna can be moved ±3 degrees off the correct heading before the receive signal leveldrops by 3 dB. This compares with a 6-foot dish which may only be moved ±1 degree for thesame degradation.The graph shown in Figure 3-6 shows the typical variation of RSL voltage as the receive signallevel is increased from threshold to a higher level. There is some variation between Tsunamireceivers, but an approximate estimate of the potential RSL value may be made using this figure.Use the Factory Test Data Sheet shipped with your Tsunami terminal toobtain the best estimate of your RSL.Above 0 dBm RSL, the receiver may produce errors: however this level is rarely likely to beexceeded. A link budget calculation should be made to calculate the anticipated RSL as describedin Section 3.3.3. During anomalous propagation conditions, the RSL may fade but will notincrease up more than 10 dB (except in unusual very long paths which may fade up by 15 dB).](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-51.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 3-20 SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTSAntenna alignment should enable the RSL to be peaked to thelevel calculated in the link budget. If the RSL is peaked but isapproximately 20 dB below the calculated level, then it is likelythat the antennas are aligned on a sidelobe of the antenna'sradiated signal. In this case, the antennas should be rotated in awide arc until the main lobe is located. (Other possible causes oflow RSL are path obstructions, loss in connectors, adapters andpigtail jumper cables or different antenna polarization at each endof the link.)Tsunami 100BaseT Dual & Single Models0.000.100.200.300.400.500.600.700.800.901.00-80 -75 -70 -65 -60 -55 -50 -45 -40RSL (dB)VoltsFigure 3-6: Typical RSL Voltage versus Received Signal Level (RSL)](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-52.png)

![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 3-22 SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS3.12 System Turn-up to Service1. Prior to installing the system, it may be desirable to perform a back-to-back test of theTsunami radio pair. Consult Section 4.9 for further details. Back-to-back testing is a simpleway to verify that the Tsunami radios are fully operational before they are installed.Installation adds several variables (such as antenna alignment) which can lead to systemturn-up delays. Also, during back-to-back testing, the DIP switch settings and someconnections can be tested. This step can eliminate a majority of troubleshooting once theradios are installed.A cellular phone or two-way radio system (walkie talkie, CB,mobile radio) can be very useful during installation. Thesecan be used for temporary near-end and far-endcommunications between the installation personnel at onesite and installation personnel at the other site whileinstalling the system. These can also be helpful forcommunication between a person at the top of a very talltower and ground personnel.The Tsunami radio incorporates an internal Orderwire featurethat provides end-to-end “telephone” style communications.However, the link must be partially operational to use thisfeature. In lieu of, or in addition to the use of cellular phonesor two-way radio, this Orderwire feature can also be veryuseful for installation, but typically cannot be put into serviceuntil step 8 or 9 of this procedure is completed. See Section3.14.1 for more details.2. Perform a general alignment of the antennas on both ends of the path using binoculars,compass or other related tools. It is important to have the antennas aligned as accuratelyas possible before putting radio traffic over the link. This will help in getting the systemrunning more rapidly. See Section 3.10 for more details.3. Connect the transmission line to the antenna, and feed it to the Tsunami radio location(see Section 3.9). Connect the opposite end of the transmission line to the N-type femaleconnector located on the filter assembly which occupies the top half of the Tsunami rearpanel. The connection must be terminated into an antenna or a load before DC power isapplied to the radio.4. Verify that the same channel plan (e.g. A, B) as the near-end radio, and the opposite Txand Rx frequencies (e.g. A1 and A2 make up a matched pair of radios).5. With the DC power source active, but not plugged into the Tsunami radio, using avoltmeter, confirm that the DC mating connector has the proper power connections inaccordance with Section 3.7. Verify the polarity and the absolute voltage on all pins. Verifyground connection for power.6. Connect power to the Tsunami radio. Verify that the Front Panel “ON” LED indication isilluminated.

![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGESSEPTEMBER 1999SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS PAGE 3-23Ensure that the RF Antenna port connection is properlyterminated before applying power to the Tsunami terminal, asin step 3.When the Tsunami radio is initially powered-on, some alarmconditions may be present. This is normal and alarms can beignored at this time.7. Place a voltmeter across the GND and PWR front panel test points. See Figure 3-7 forvoltage setting information and Table 3-C for typical output power levels for given cablelengths where EIRP limits apply. If necessary, use a small screwdriver at the front panelreceptacle to adjust the output power of the local transmitter in accordance with the pathanalysis calculations. The recessed potentiometer is rotated clockwise to increasetransmit output power and counter clockwise to decrease transmit output power. Afterverifying correct setting of the transmit output power, disconnect the voltmeter. Place thecover cap found in the installation accessory kit over the front panel receptacle.The Tsunami radio requires professional installation. With someTsunami models, in certain countries, there may be EffectiveIsotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) limits which dictate themaximum output power that the Tsunami radio can transmitgiven the transmission line loss and the gain of the antenna.Consult with appropriate government agencies or GlenayreWestern Multiplex if there is any question regarding maximumoutput power allowed.

![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGESSEPTEMBER 1999SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS PAGE 3-25For precision measurement of transmit output power, it is bestto connect an RF power meter to the antenna port. The PWRport voltage may not provide enough precision. This isespecially important where EIRP limits apply to the installation.In cases of no EIRP limits, the radio transmitter output powershould be left at the factory setting, except for very short pathsusing very high gain antennas, where excessive power may notbe advised.Don’t forget that the RF output port should be terminated at alltimes when power is applied to the Tsunami radio. Therefore,disconnect power to the radio before connecting a power meterand reapply power once connected. Often, an RF power metermay have a limit to the input power that it can measure withoutdamage. It is advised to place a calibrated fixed value RFattenuator (typically 20 dB or more) between the Tsunami radioand the power meter to assure proper operation and safety forthe RF power meter. The value of this fixed attenuation can thenbe added to the value of the RF power meter reading to obtainthe actual Tsunami radio transmitter output power.8. Connect a voltmeter across the GND and RSL front panel test points. Thisvoltage reading corresponds to the Received Signal Level (RSL) of the near-end radio. Inother words, RSL is the “amount” of signal the near-end radio is receiving from the far-end radio. Since the antennas have not been finely aligned, it is not expected at this timethat the RSL will read very high. However, at this point it can be verified that somecommunication is taking place between the two Tsunami terminals. Use the RSL voltagereading to align the antennas. Align one antenna at a time in accordance with Section3.10. Complete alignment of both ends of the radio link before going further.The RSL voltage output on the radio's front panel will output avoltage over the usable range of the radio. Refer to Figure 3-6 inSection 3-20.The Tsunami radio has a unique feature of allowing measurement of the far-end RSLfrom the near-end radio. This is only possible if the Tsunami radios are communicating(the RSL is above threshold). The far-end RSL can be used to verify that adjustments tolocal antenna alignment are corresponding to the far-end radio reception. Far-end RSL ismeasured by pressing and holding the DISPLAY FAR END front panel button. While thisbutton is held, the RSL voltage indicates the RSL of the far-end radio. RSL of both endsshould be verified to be within approximately 2 dB of predicted value (see Section 3.3.3).There are several factors that can contribute to low RSL:- Incorrect antenna alignment (aligned on a lobe and not on the main signal)- Improper polarization alignment of antennas (horizontal vs. vertical)- Transmission line problems (loose connections, bent or damaged cables, lossyadapters)- Path obstructions (trees, buildings, hills, etc.)- Path clearance (line-of-sight, earth curvature, Fresnel zone, diffraction and partialobstruction)](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-57.png)

Don’tforget that the transmitter output power adjustment on theTsunami radio effects the RSL. Depending on EIRP limits (ifany), path distance, and antenna gain, you may need toadjust the output transmit power to the proper level beforeputting the radios in service.If radio synchronization has been established, the radio linkmay be able to provide some limited communications over thelink. It can be helpful to establish voice communications fromone end of the radio link to the other using the Orderwirefeature of the Tsunami radio. See Section 3.14.1 for details.If RSL is lower than anticipated, recheck the path clearance and transmission line as these arethe typical causes of low RSL. Radio operations can be verified by connecting radios back-to-backwith attenuators (40-60 dB), (see Section 4.9). If the problem remains, consult Section 4 of thismanual for troubleshooting techniques which will help determine the source of the problem.9. Once radio performance is verified and acceptable, the Tsunami radios can now be putinto service with the intended Fast Ethernet traffic. Connect to the LAN or computer usingthe RJ45 (wire) or ST (fiber) 100BaseT connector. With Fast Ethernet traffic applied inboth directions, all front panel LEDs, except for POWER and the data TXD/RXD lightsshould be off. If any other LEDs are on, consult the trouble shooting sections of thismanual.10. Now that the link is operational, other services can be connected including T1 (DSX-1),Orderwire, Diagnostics, Alarms and Aux Data (Service Channel). Consult Section 3.14 fordetails on these connections.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-58.png)

![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 3-28 SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS3.13 Output Power AdjustmentThe Tsunami radio requires professional installation. In certain cases, it is necessary to adjust theoutput power lower (never higher) from the factory setting, for example:❖to meet EIRP (effective isotropic radiated power) limits.❖to avoid exceeding the maximum far-end RSL of -30 dBm.❖to coordinate a hub or repeater location.To ensure maximum protection of the radio circuits, alwaysensure the antenna connector is terminated when power isapplied. Never adjust output power above factory settings.For precise measurement of transmitter power, a calibrated RF power meter (such as the HP435B with Power Sensor HP8481) is recommended. This power sensor can be connected directlyto the output of the radio without exceeding the power rating. With some power meters, it may benecessary to place a calibrated in-line fixed attenuator between the radio antenna port and thepower meter so as to not exceed the power meter’s maximum input level. Thruline power metersdo not operate at Tsunami RF frequencies.If adjusting the output power to meet an EIRP limit, it will be first necessary to calculate the overallsystem gains and losses, including feeder losses for the type of transmission line installed and theantenna gain. Also refer to Table 3-C for transmitter output power settings where installed withvarious transmission line lengths and antenna sizes. You may determine the radio transmit powerfor EIRP limited installations by the following equation:Tx Power (dBm) = EIRP Limit(dBm) + Feeder Loss(dB) - Antenna Gain(dB)For the US and Canada, a +30 dBm EIRP limit applies for thedual band (5.3/5.8 GHz) Tsunami radios and a +53 dBm EIRPlimit applies for the single band (5.8 GHz) Tsunami radios.Output power may be adjusted using a small screwdriver and rotating the potentiometer which isrecessed behind the front panel. Clockwise rotation increases output power while counter-clockwise rotation decreases output power.In lieu of a calibrated RF power meter, the PWR test port voltage can be used to estimate theoutput power. Figure 3-7 illustrates the voltage reading for various output power levels. Thefactory test data sheet should be used to establish a more precise setting of this adjustment.After setting the correct output power, place the cover capfound in the installation accessory kit over the front panelreceptacle.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-60.png)

Refer to Section2.3.5 for the telephone specifications. For simple near-end to far-end communications, follow thesteps below:1. Using a standard RJ-11 telephone cable, connect a standard electronic telephone (atouch tone phone, complete with dialer; a handset by itself will not work) to the Orderwireconnector on the Tsunami front panel. This connector is wired identically to a standardtwo-wire telephone jack, see Figure 3-18 for details.2. With a telephone connected to each Tsunami terminal on opposite ends of the link, eithertelephone can be used to “dial-up” the far-end location. The far-end terminal’s internalringer and the connected telephone will ring, and if answered, two-way full-duplex voicecommunication is established.If using the Orderwire or Network management functions, allTsunami radios connected must have unique address settings(telephone numbers).4. If the Tsunami radios are connected in a repeater configuration, Orderwire services can beestablished to all Tsunami terminals in the network by implementing a connection of theirrear-panel connectors between repeater terminals. At the repeater site, a cable can beconnected to the two Tsunami terminals between their rear panel VF 9-pin connectors asshown in Figure 3-8. With this cable in place, the Orderwire function will operate at terminalsat each end of the repeater and at the repeater site. This function can be continued throughseveral repeater sites if desired. For hub connections of 3 or more Tsunami radios at thesame site, an external 4-wire bridge is required to connect all radios to the orderwire.The orderwire system can be integrated with orderwireequipment supported by many other vendors. If your existingorderwire network uses 2 digit addressing, and 0 dBm VFinterface, it can be connected to a Tsunami as shown in Figure3-8.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-61.png)

This allows anHTML interface to the Tsunami radio for purposes of monitoring, configuration and securitysettings. This connection is an RJ-45 style connection and complies to standard 10BaseTinterface. Typically, the installer or manager will connect to the NMS with a stand-alone computerto initially configure the radio prior to installation. If IP addresses and security are set properly, theconnection can also be used as an out-of-band connection for radio management.

![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 4-2 SECTION 4: TROUBLESHOOTING4.2 Changing Frequency PlansThe Tsunami RF frequency selections are listed in Section 3.5. The near-end radio and the far-end radio must be corresponding (e.g. A1 / A2). The frequency of a given Tsunami terminal is setby the specific filter, the physical orientation of this assembly, and a setting within the CONFIGport (or NMS configuration instructions, Section 4.11). With respect to a given filter, thefrequencies are fixed, because tuned RF filters are required for normal operation. Changing of the(pre-tuned) radio frequencies may be required when installing spares or for special situations,such as interference mitigation. This is accomplished by installing an alternate filter.It is not necessary to remove the cover assembly of the Tsunami1. Remove any cables connected to the antenna connector on the diplexer (filter) and thenremove the two screws that mount the filter to the Tsunami chassis.2. Slowly remove the filter from the chassis being careful to not endanger the cables that areconnected to the rear side of the filter.3. Disconnect the two SMA connectors that are attached to the rear of the filter with a 5/16”open end wrench.4. Select the new filter such that the frequency channel label on the filter corresponds to thedesired frequency channel (or rotate filter if applicable – see note below).5. Connect the two SMA connectors to the new or reoriented filter with the 5/16” open endwrench.6. Slowly place the wired filter assembly so that it is flush with the rear panel.7. Install the two screws that mount the filter to the rear panel.8. Modify the operating frequency as described in the CONFIG menus (Section 4.11)Single-band versions of this radio can be interchanged fromA1 to A2 by changing (but not rotating) the installed filter.After filter is changed, the frequency settings within theconfiguration menu (NMS) must be changed to match theinstalled filter.Dual-band versions of this radio also can change channels,but the orientation of low-side or high-side transmit must beretained. That is, an A1 radio can only be changed into a B1radio with a new filter, but not into an A2 or a B2. Likewise,the A2 radio can only be changed into a B2 radio with a newfilter, but not into an A1 or B1. The diplexer filters can go onany radio and must be properly oriented. After filter ischanged, the frequency setting within the configuration menu(NMS) must be changed to match the installed filter.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-72.png)

Compare this voltage tothe Factory Test Data Sheet and estimate the RSL in dBm. Compare this to the RSL that wasexpected using path calculations (see Section 3.3.3). Press and hold the DISPLAY FAR ENDbutton and measure the far-end RSL (while continuing to hold the button). Compare this RSL tothe Factory Test Data Sheet for the far-end radio and estimate the RSL in dBm. Again, comparethis RSL to the expected RSL from the link budget calculations.If RSL from both ends of the radio are approximately the same as each other, but lower thananticipated for this installation, then the likely cause of the BER alarm(s) is excessive lossesbetween the radios. Excessive loss problems could include the transmission line at either end, alladapters, connectors, the antennas, the antenna alignment as well as the path itself (anyobstructions or clearance problems). Antenna alignment, line-of-sight and path clearance shouldbe verified; if this does not improve RSL, all devices between the radios and their antennas atboth ends should be checked. Make sure all transmission line, connectors and any other devices](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-77.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 4-8 SECTION 4: TROUBLESHOOTINGare properly rated for operation at the radio's frequency (5.3/5.8 GHz).If only one end has low RSL, this could be caused by low transmit output power from the oppositeend radio. Verify that the transmitter output power of the radio opposite to the low RSL receiverhas been set in accordance to path calculations, or EIRP restrictions (where applicable). Poweradjustment must be performed by professional installation personnel only. The PWR test pointcan be used and compared with the Factory Test Data Sheet, the front panel recessedpotentiometer can be turned clockwise to increase power. If an RF power meter is available, thiscan be connected to the RF output of the radio for precision measurement. This test will alsoverify that the radio transmitter is working properly.If one terminal (or both) has high RSL, this could be caused by a very short path or interference.To verify the possible presence of interference, remove DC power to the radio which is opposite tothe one that is reading high RSL. Once power is removed, measure RSL on the remaining radio.If RSL voltage is lower than that which is listed for "Threshold" in the Factory Test Data Sheet,then an interfering signal is present. If interference is suspected, the easiest potential remedy is toswap frequency channels on both sides of the link. See Section 4.2 for details. Swap terminals atboth ends of the link so that they are the opposite from their original installation. After both endsare moved, reconnect the radios and determine if the BER alarm is still active. If the BER alarm isstill active, other frequency channels can be installed, or other interference countermeasures canbe tried, in accordance with Section 4.8.If all path related and data input problems have been pursued and the BER alarm is still active,the problem could be related to a radio failure. While radio failure is typically indicated by moresevere alarm conditions, it is possible that one of the radios may be out of specification, and thiscould be the cause of the BER alarm. A back-to-back test will verify proper radio operation. SeeSection 4.9 for details. A threshold test on both radios along with a test to verify proper RF outputpower would be beneficial.Perform a back-to-back test before returning any radio terminal tothe factory for repair. A back-to-back test verifies radio operation.(See Section 4.9).If the radios successfully pass their back-to-back testing, the problem is likely with the path or theconnections between the radio and the antenna or interference. Before reinstalling the radios, besure to set the output power to the appropriate level for the installation.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-78.png)

In the case of thesetypes of errors, the following information can be helpful to troubleshoot the radio link.Indications:❖During external BER test, test equipment indicates errors❖Downstream equipment (mux, channel bank, CODEC, router, etc.) indicates errorsPossible Causes:❖Path fading due to atmospheric conditions❖Poor transmission line connections❖Antenna problems, misalignment or path clearance❖Received signal level (RSL) is too strong❖Far-End radio transmitter circuitry is faulty❖Near-End radio receiver circuitry is faulty❖InterferenceRecommended Actions:1. Verify 100BaseT wiring.2. Follow the instructions described in Section 4.6.1](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-81.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 4-12 SECTION 4: TROUBLESHOOTING4.8 Interference CountermeasuresThe recommended interference countermeasures available to the Tsunami operator are asfollows:1. Short PathsThe single most effective countermeasure against interference is to maintain "short path" length.This may be achieved by dividing long paths into multiple small paths by cascading hops.Intermediate repeaters may be formed using back-to-back Tsunami terminals and transmit outputpower reduced, if required.By definition, "short path" is defined as a path where fades are extremely rare and signal levelsvary by no more than ±3 dB during fades. This distance will vary with the RF frequency. Typicallya "short path" is defined as any path length shorter than 5 miles at 5.3/5.8 GHz.2. Narrow Beam Antennas (high gain)This is the next most effective countermeasure. Narrow beam antennas ensure that thetransmitted power is sent in a single direction and this minimizes the possibility of causinginterference inadvertently to other users. Narrow beam antennas also reject off-azimuth signalsbeing received from potential sources of interference and have high gain which boosts desiredreceive levels and improves the carrier to interference ratio. When selecting narrow beamantennas, it is helpful to know that larger antennas generally outperform smaller antennas.Another important antenna specification is the front-to-back ratio which ensures rejection ofunwanted signals from azimuth angles behind the antenna.3. Frequency SelectionThis is another very effective countermeasure. The Tsunami radio offers several distinct non-overlapping frequency channel plans (see Sections 3.5 and 4.2) and the radio’s RF filter is able toreject interference more than 10 MHz away from the receive frequency. Offset frequenciescombined with other countermeasures may enable several receive channels to operate at a singlehub site. Because of the limited spreading ratio used, frequency selection is more efficient thancode selection for interference rejection when operating multiple Tsunami terminals at a singlesite. Interference can often be overcome by exchanging frequencies of both-ends of the radio link(e.g. change your A1 terminal to an A2 and change the other end from an A2 to an A1). Also,changing channel plans (e.g. from A to B) can be very effective. (See Section 4.2).](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-82.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGESSEPTEMBER 1999SECTION 4: TROUBLESHOOTING PAGE 4-134. Antenna PolarizationCross-polarized antennas can provide approximately 20 to 30 dB discrimination of unwantedsignals. The actual discrimination will depend upon the antenna design and any rotation ofpolarization along the path, for example, due to reflections. Discrimination only exists between twoorthogonal polarizations:- vertical vs. horizontal or- left-hand circular vs. right-hand circularThere is only 3 dB discrimination between circular and linear (vertical or horizontal) polarization.Interference can sometimes be overcome by changing antenna polarization at both ends of thelink.5. Transmit PowerThe maximum level into the receiver is -30 dBm. Above this level, errors may occur in the receivedata stream. Transmit output power should be reduced on very short paths to avoid overload.6. Equipment/Antenna LocationOccasionally, interference is caused by the radio or the antenna being too close to another similartransmitter. Moving the radio, the antennas, or the interfering equipment can reduce or eliminateinterference.Interference countermeasures rely to some extent on themeasurement of the received interference level and frequency.Prior to turning up a new hop, a spectrum analyzer can be usedto monitor the spectrum at each end to check for possibleinterfering signals. See Section 4.8.1 for more details.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-83.png)
![INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALTsunami FAMILYFAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES SEPTEMBER 1999PAGE 4-14 SECTION 4: TROUBLESHOOTING4.8.1 Use of a Spectrum Analyzer to Evaluate Potential InterferenceConnecting to the antenna and using "peak hold" on a spectrum analyzer, the spectrum acrossthe receive frequency range of the radio can be swept and any signals being received at levelsabove the radio’s specified threshold identified. If potential interfering signals are found, then theTsunami frequency plan can be changed to avoid a receive channel which may contain significantinterference (see Section 4.2).For example, interference may be reduced by moving from the A1/A2 plan to the B1/B2 plan or byswapping terminals or RF filters so that A1 becomes A2.Signals outside the receiver frequency range may be ignored:they will not cause interference.If a spectrum analyzer is not available, the RSL voltage can be used to indicate the backgroundnoise and interference level within the receiver RF filter band when the far-end transmitter isturned off. With the far-end radio turned off, if an RSL voltage level below the radio’s thresholdlevel is measured, there is potentially interference in this frequency channel.When using a spectrum analyzer for determining the presenceof interference, very narrow resolution bandwidth settings mustbe used to detect signals down to the radio’s threshold(approximately -80 dBm, depending on radio type).](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-84.png)

Back-to-back testing must be performed with bothradios at the same location. The following test equipment is required:❖DC power source capable of supplying approximately 90 Watts (total) to the radios (ortwo AC adapters)❖One low-loss coaxial cable, N-to-N male❖One (or more) coaxial in-line calibrated fixed attenuators, 40 to 80 dB total attenuationThe following test equipment may also be useful to perform further testing of the Tsunami radio:❖BER tester❖Variable (60 dB range or more) RF attenuator (rated for the proper frequency, 2.4 or 5.8GHz)❖RF power meterBack-to-back testing must be performed to verify a radioproblem before returning any radio to the factory for repair.When the equipment is connected as shown in Figure 4-1, both Tsunami radios should have noalarm conditions. If these conditions have been met, then it is likely that the Tsunami radio isoperating in accordance to specifications. If errors or alarms occur during this test, verify that allDIP switch settings are properly set. If alarms or errors are still present, the radio is likely to befaulty.If further troubleshooting is required, a variable RF attenuator can be inserted between the radiosto fade down the path to determine that the threshold specification is being met. The thresholdtests can be run in both directions to isolate the radio problem (if any). More information testing isprovided in Section 4.10. An RF power meter can be used to individually test each radio’s outputpower.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-85.png)

It can be performed fromend-to-end or in link test mode (which tests both directions of the radio path). Figure 4-2 illustratesa typical test configuration (which may include the radio’s path instead of in-line attenuators).Figure 4-2 illustrates a typical test configuration for end-to-end testing.When performing testing, make sure of the following:- Disconnect all 100BaseT inputs and outputs to both radios.- Verify all configuration settings.Link testing may be performed on the bench, with two terminals back to back, or over the radiopath. Also, it may be performed from end-to-end (which requires two 100BaseT test sets over alink, the far-end unit slaved to the near-end unit’s clock) or in loopback mode, as described inSection 4.9.If link testing indicates an unacceptable level of errors, follow the instructions in Section 4.6.1. orperform a back-to-back test as described in Section 4.9.Figure 4-2: End-to-End Test ConfigurationTsunami Tsunami100baseTTester 100baseTTester](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/U5358-45.Updated-Installation-and-Maintenance-Manual/User-Guide-72925-Page-87.png)
