RU Antenna Alignment TrangoLINK-10-EXT Professional Installation Guide Trango Broadband Wireless – Rev. A Page 2 Overview This manual covers basic configuration and installation of the TrangoLINK-10-EXT system which consists of two radios, M5830S-MU-EXT (Master Unit) and M5830S-RU-EXT (Remote Unit). Since these devices require manual maximum power limit settings (for 5.25-5.35 GHz U-NII band operation only), they are classified by the FCC as a professional install devices. To be in compliance with FCC guidelines, the radios must be installed with one of several approved antennas listed in this document. The M5830S-MU-EXTR and M5830S-RU-EXT are currently FCC certified for use with three external antennas.

The TrangoLINK-10 User Manual also covers many important aspects of radio configuration and management which is applicable to the TrangoLINK-10-EXT. FCC Information This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Regulations. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with these instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

RU Antenna Alignment TrangoLINK-10-EXT Professional Installation Guide Trango Broadband Wireless – Rev. A Page 3 General Information Contents Each TrangoLINK-10-EXT kit comes equipped with a Master Unit (MU) and Remote Unit (RU), two power-over-Ethernet (PoE) J-Boxes, two AC adapters, and two mounting kits. The MAC ID and Serial # are printed on a label on the back of the radio. Antenna Connections The radio is equipped with two reverse-polarity SMA connectors on the side for attachment to an external antenna. Each SMA connector is labeled with either “V” for Vertical or “H” for Horizontal polarization. VERTICAL HORIZONTAL Connect each cable to the appropriate vertical and horizontal ports on both the antenna and the radio. Ethernet / Power Connections See the TrangoLINK-10 User Manual for detailed diagram for connecting radio to network or PC utilizing the power over Ethernet (PoE) J-Box and cat-5 cables. ! IMPORTANT: DO NOT APPLY DC POWER TO THE RADIO UNTIL THE ANTENNA IS ATTACHED OTHERWISE DAMAGE TO THE RADIO MAY OCCUR. Setting the Maximum RF Power The FCC allows a maximum EIRP of 1 watt (30 dBm) for devices transmitting in the 5.25 to 5.35 U-NII band. The M5830S-MU-EXT and M5830S-RU-EXT’s factory default maximum power settings for this band is +6 dBm. If the radio is to be equipped with Trango standard antennas AD5830-23-D or AD5830-24-D, no manual adjustment to the max power setting is required since radio power output plus antenna gain does not exceed 30 dBm. However, due to FCC restrictions the professional installer must manually reduce the maximum power for the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz U-NII band if a higher gain antenna is to be used. The table below shows the maximum power setting for the radio to achieve an EIRP of 1 watt (FCC limit). Only the antennas listed below are FCC Certified for use with the TrangoLINK-10-EXT.

Note: that in all cases, Antenna Gain + Radio Max Power Setting is 30 dBm. Once set, the power leveling feature will still operate normally, but the maximum EIRP will never exceed 1 watt (30 dBm). The Max Power Setting command is only accessible from the command line and is not available on the HTTP Browser interface. The telnet or serial port command to change the maximum power is: uniimaxpower <max power in dBm> The flash memory must be updated after running the command. save systemsetting The command must be run prior to installing the antenna and while the Opmode is OFF. Example: To set the max power setting for the AD5830-23-D: #> uniimaxpower 6 #> save systemsetting ? Note: The maximum RF power may be left at +22 dBm for the 5.725 to 5.85 GHz ISM band regardless of which FCC Certified antenna is used. No manual setting is required.

These antennas are designed for superior performance in long range applications and tower installations that may be subject to high winds. Radomes are available from Radiowaves for installations subject to extreme weather. Contact Radiowaves, Inc. (www.radiowavesinc) for more information. The SPD3-5.2 is equipped with a standard “N” Female RF Connector interface. A special cable assembly is required to connect this antenna to the Trango M5830S-SU-EXT’s reverse polarity SMA Female connector. Recommended Cable Assembly: REVERSE POLARITY SMA MALE TO STANDARD N MALE 50 OHM, RG142B/U COAX, DOUBLE SHIELDED. Length: 24” – 48”. ? Note: To minimize loss, use the shortest cable length possible. Pre-Assembled Cable Assemblies are available from Pasternack Enterprises www.pasternack.com.

Remote Unit Antenna Alignment To align the RU antenna for optimal performance, follow the procedure outlined in the TrangoLINK-10 User Manual. This procedure is also included below for your convenience. The same procedure applies to both the P5830S-RU and the P5830S-RU-EXT. Once the RU’s antenna is mounted and aimed in the general direction of the MU, it is time to perform an RSSI test to determine the signal strength from the MU, and to precisely align the RU antenna for maximum signal strength. RU Antenna Alignment Procedure 1. Ensure MU is in opmode “ON” 2. Telnet into the RU (while in opmode “OFF”) or access the radio via hyperterminal/serial port. 3. Type command RSSI <channel> <polarization> - Example RSSI 3 V (chan. 3, vertical polarization) 4. Telnet session screen will begin a continuous readout of the received signal strength. 5. As you read the RSSI reading, move the antenna in the horizontal and vertical planes until the maximum RSSI reading is achieved. For short links you can expect an RSSI of –60 dBm or better. For longer links and RSSI of –75 dBm is acceptable. Any RSSI of less than –80 dBm may be too weak for the radios to reliably associate and pass data. 6. If it is not possible to receive an adequate RSSI reading, it may be necessary to reorient the MU (up/down, left/right), to increase the output power of the MU, or to move the RU to a location with better line-of-sight conditions to the MU. Once you are satisfied with the RSSI reading, tighten down the antenna in the optimum position. To stop the RSSI continuous readout, hit SPACE ENTER. ? Note: The amber light on the bottom of the RU will also indicate RSSI according to the following parameters: RSSI < -80dBm not lit RSSI > -80dBm blinking. RSSI ? -65dBm solid. (blink rate increases with signal strength.)
