Notes:
1) The standard CAT cable length is up to 100 meters. However, you can
extend the cable length to up to 300 meters using ASWipLL IDU/ODU Extender
(see Appendix F, "Extending IDU/ODU Cable Length").
2) Airspan supplies unterminated CAT cables. For a detailed description on
crimping cables, see Appendix C, "Cable Crimping".
3) Airspan offers an optional RJ45-to-DB15 adapter for attaching to the SDA's
15-pin D-type port. This allows you to crimp an RJ45 connector to one end of
the CAT cable. For a detailed description, see Appendix E, "RJ-45 to DB15
Adapter for IDU/ODU Connectivity".
4) For IDU/ODU connectivity of 40 meters and more, an outdoor lightning and
surge protector must be implemented (see Appendix I, "Installing Lightning
Protector".)
14.2. Connecting SDA to Subscriber's Ethernet
Network
The SDA provides an RJ-45 port(s) for Ethernet connectivity to the subscriber's
PC/network. The number of Ethernet ports and the speed of the Ethernet connection
depend on the SDA model. For a description of the ports of the various SDA
models, see Chapter 12, "Basic Design of Devices".
Note: Only subscriber terminal equipment (e.g. computer modem port) that is
designed for full compliance with TNV-1 telecommunication network
connectivity can be connected to the SDA-1. Warranty of Airspan's equipmen
t
shall be made void if the SDA is connected to a computer that is not compliant
with TNV-1.
14.2.1. Connecting to LAN/PC
The SDA connects to the subscriber's PC(s)/LAN through the SDA's RJ-45 Ethernet
port(s). The number of Ethernet ports depends on the SDA model.
The SDA-to-subscriber PC cable configurations are as follows:
