1.0.1 Other Documentation and Software

1.1 The EX-5r Digital Microwave Radio
The EX-5r Digital Microwave Radio is the most advanced carrier class point-to-point terrestrial
radio communications device operating in the 5250 to 5850 MHz frequency range.
The EX-5r is used to connect voice and/or digital data from one location to another, obviating
the need for copper or fiber connectivity, or enhancing existing connectivity by providing a
redundancy solution, a primary solution and/or additional capacity.
Generally, the EX-5r requires clear line-of-sight and proper path clearance to achieve a high-
performance, reliable connection. Professional path engineering and site planning should be
performed BEFORE the installation of this equipment. This document primarily focuses on the
installation and maintenance of the microwave radio, and assumes that path engineering and site
planning has already been performed. Please refer to Exalt’s document “Guidance for
Engineering and Site Planning of Terrestrial Wireless Links” for detailed information on
these activities.
