1 Introduction 1.1 What is FSO? FSO is free space optics provides point-point broadband communications using Laser Light as the transmission medium. FSO is a state of art data communication method which is based on a very old communication solution. Ancient Chinese developed a protection system against the Mongol tribes, building watchtowers within the line of site to other towers.
very hard receiver sensitivity. These two factors combined to provide one of the best performing FSO systems on the market today. To meet the demands for every higher bandwidth, GeoDesy FSO (Europe) Limited continues to invest heavily in research and development with the newest product line which offers Gigabit speeds being launched. This manual describes the GeoDesy FSO Next series of free space laser transmission system.
1.3 Optical Free-space Transmission The principle used in free space laser transmission is very similar to the one is used for fibre optic transmission. The difference is while fibre optic devices use electronics and optics optimized for transmission to the air. Also one can observe to the similarity in the transmission properties. No galvanic contact, no ground-loops, no need for surge protection, noise immunity, long distances, high bandwidth.
1.4 Typical applications Most typically the GeoDesy FSO Next product are is used to interconnect LANs. The system is protocol transparent, thus other applications also can be taken into consideration. Appropriate interface converters are needed and system bandwidth must be matched for that. Here we collected some circumstances, where the deployment of the GeoDesy FSO is the most adequate as a cost effective solution.
2 Interfaces for the Giga Next Series 2.1 1000Mbps TP interface The GeoDesy FSO Giga Next series products are designed to provide easy-touse and cost-effective solution for interconnecting Local Area Networks. By utilizing standard Category 5e cable and using standard IEEE802.3af interface the deployment of the system is easier than ever before. The transparent and wire speed data transfer together with virtually zero latency assures the easy integration of the system in all environments.
3 Sites of installation 3.1 Key factors of operation There are four key issues that the site survey has to shed light on. Proper system operation cannot be guaranteed without satisfying all of the four requirements. Clear line of sight - The entire optical path between the two ends must be free of any obstacles. It not only means that one has to see the other side, but other possible sources of disturbance should also be taken into consideration.
Preferred installation Pay attention to sites Avoid (*) Concrete wall Brick wall Soft materials Chimneys Wooden constructs Metal masts or Frames Hidden heat isolations, like Styrofoam Behind window Old constructs Microwave towers (*) In cases where installations are listed under “AVOID” cannot be avoided than special mounting accessories to be designed and special installations must be used. It is not only the building that has to be solid, but the support structure too.
3.3 Distance measurement Because the units were designed, and calibrated for certain distance operations the higher distance will decrease the availability. GeoDesy FSO pre-calibrates and pretests every unit shipped to the customer. To ensure that the unit you are about to buy fits to the needs, the first step is to measure the distance. The best way to measure it is by GPS (Global Positioning System), these units are accurate enough to determine the distance between two points.
4 Eye safety There are no two installation spots of the same kind, the buildings or structures, the available space and the accessibility of the place will be different in each case. Nevertheless, as a general rule it is very important to select the installation site so that nobody can look directly into the transmitter.
5 The mounting bracket In the following chapter you will find detailed description of the bracket fastenings. 5.1 Mounting brackets for the X Series GeoDesy FSO provides the mounting bracket and all the necessary components for X series units.

7 System installation 7.1 On the table test Warning! Do not look either into the transmitter or the receiver optics because at this distance even the reflected laser beam can be dangerous to your eyes. Operating the system on much shorter distance than presumed originally can cause saturation or even permanent damage to the receiver. Always use optical attenuators for this kind of test. The on-the-table test needs careful planning and careful use during the test period.
7.1.1 Alignment of the PX1000E1000 The first step after the unit was placed to the bracket, and the units facing each other. On the back of the receiver you can find the LEDs and LCD screen for the local received level and the remote received level. This help will be very useful because as soon as you have received – which is very easy to achieve – you can see the effect of your local sides movement to the other side. For further information please check the Meanings of the LCDs chapter. 7.
7.3 System layout 7.3.1 Connecting to your Network The system is connected to the network via two twisted pair cable and one wire cooper cable. The first cable provides the management data for the GeoDesy FSO Giga Next laser head The second plug houses the Gigabit TP or the Fibre optic connection point.Please see the connection below.This is the standard IEEE802.3af connector layout.

8 The mounting bracket 8.1 Fixing the heads Your GD-P1000E1000 head can be fixed to its stand with an Alignment Base Unit (ABU). On the figure you can see an ABU, and a plinth of a GD1000E1000 unit, and the necessary fixing parts. The necessary nuts and washers can be foubd on the legs of the head. The steps of the fixing are. First, fix the Abu to the stand using the washers and nuts Place the head to the ABU Fix the bolts with the nuts, using the washers Tight up all the nuts 8.
Place the two spacers where the figure shows to. Open the spacers until it reaches the bottom of the upper plate of the ABU! Repeat this on the back side too! Then do the same on the remote side too! 8.3 Inside the laserhead Warning only trained personal should open the casing. No user servicable part inside. GeoDesy Kft.

9 Alignment The very first step is to power up the heads. After this the boot sequence should run down, which takes 10-15 seconds. 9.1 LCD panel (receiver) Aligment Important! For alignment purposes you might need a computer connected to the system. The adjustment of the motor control, and the swithcing of the transmitters are possible with a PC. For adjustment please see PX-1000E1000 extra MGM functions chapter.
On the LCD screen you can see the remote level of the other Laser Head! Because of the weight of the heads for the vertical moving you can use the spacers as it is shown on the figure. For this moving you need two wrencches.
You can check the position of the beam using a digital camera with infared lenses. You can see the beam shining on the landmarks around the remote head from the side of the transmitter, or until dusk you can see the line of the beam with your own eyes.
there you can measure it. In that case if there are not any surfaces for beam measuring, you can do it in the following method: Face the remote side and check the beam with your camera. Move slowly to the right in straight line until the picture of the beam, what you see in the camera, is reducing, and sign that place. Do the same on the left side. Then you can measure the distance between the twosigned places. That will be the diameter of the beam.

11.1.6 SNMP Technology SNMP is part of the Internet network management architecture. This architecture is based on the interaction of many entities, as described in the following section. The Internet Management Model As specified in Internet RFCs and other documents, a network management system comprises: Network elements -- Sometimes called managed devices, network elements are hardware devices such as computers, routers, and terminal servers that are connected to networks.
parties. An SNMPv2 entity can define multiple parties, each with different parameters. For example, different parties can use different authentication and/or privacy protocols. Management protocol -- A management protocol is used to convey management information between agents and NMSs. SNMP is the Internet community's de facto standard management protocol. The most basic elements of the Internet management model are graphically represented in Figure 1.
A MIB can be depicted as an abstract tree with an unnamed root. Individual data items make up the leaves of the tree. Object identifiers (IDs) uniquely identify or name MIB objects in the tree. Object IDs are like telephone numbers -- they are organized hierarchically with specific digits assigned by different organizations.
Gauges -- Non-negative integers that can increase or decrease, but latch at a maximum value. The length of an output packet queue (in packets) is an example of a gauge. Time ticks -- Hundredths of a second since an event. The time since an interface entered its current state is an example of a tick. Opaque -- Represents an arbitrary encoding. This data type is used to pass arbitrary information strings that do not conform to the strict data typing used b y the SMI.
GetBulk -- New for SNMPv2. The GetBulk operation was added to make it easier to acquire large amounts of related information without initiating repeated get-next operations. GetBulk was designed to virtually eliminate the need for GetNext operations. Set -- Allows the NMS to set values for object instances within an agent. Trap -- Used by the agent to asynchronously Inform the NMS of some event. The SNMPv2 trap message is designed to replace the SNMPv1 trap message. Inform -- New for SNMPv2.
Error-status -- Indicates an error and an error type. In SNMPv2 GetBulk operations, this field becomes a NonRepeaters field. For these operations, this field defines t he number of request-ed variables listed that should be retrieved no more than once from the beginning of the request. The field is used when some of the variables are scalar objects with only one variable. Error-index -- Associates the error with a particular object instance.
The Digest Authentication Protocol verifies that the message received is the same one that was sent. Data integrity is protected using a 128-bit message digest calculated according to the Message Digest 5 (MD5) algorithm. The digest is calculated at the sender and enclosed with the SNMPv2 message. The receiver verifies the digest. A secret value, known only to the sender and the receiver, is prefixed to the message.
Trap event list Alert disabled: there is no alert coming up for this trap Temperature: The agent will send an alarm if the value goes above the preset value. For further details please see Temperature alert level in the Device Setup chapter. Detector: The agent will send an alarm if the value goes above the preset value. For further details please see Detector alert level in the Device Setup chapter. Transmitter: if the transmitter fails operating the agent will send an alarm.
