PAGE 36
The connection between the PTP 400 Series Bridge PIDU Plus and the user’s equipment can be made using any standard CAT5 patch cable. The RJ45 Ethernet connection is presented as a piece of network equipment. However as automatic MDI/MDI-X sensing and pair swapping is employed a crossed or straight through Ethernet patch cable can be used for connection to another piece of networking equipment or directly to end user equipment.
PAGE 37
3.3.8 Configuration and Management Configuration and Management of the PTP 400 Series Bridge is implemented using an inbuilt web server hosting a number of Configuration and Management web pages. This approach allows Configuration and Management to be carried out on any standard web browsing technology. The PTP 400 Series Bridge can also be managed remotely using the SNMP management protocol. Connection to the bridge is via the Ethernet connection carrying the bridge network traffic.
PAGE 38
4 Product Architecture The PTP 400 Series Bridge consists of an identical pair of unit’s deployed one at each end of the link. The radio link operates on a single frequency channel in each direction using Time Division Duplex (TDD). One unit is deployed as a master and the other as a slave. The master unit takes responsibility for controlling the link in both directions.
PAGE 39
Figure 10 - PTP 400 Series Bridge Layer Diagram The PTP 400 Series Bridge functionality has been extended to encompass the specification IEEE 802.1p. IEEE 802.1p uses Ethernet packets extended by 4 bytes, as specified in IEEE 802.1q for VLAN tagging, to prioritize packets over the wireless interface. The PTP 400 Series Bridge will forward all VLAN tagged packets regardless of the VLAN ID value. Each unit in the link is manageable through an IP connection.

To address the primary aims the Spectrum Management algorithm implements a radar detection function which looks for impulsive interference on the active channel only. If impulsive interference is detected Spectrum Management will mark the current active channel as having detected radar and initiate a channel hop to an available channel. The previous active channel will remain in the radar detected state for thirty minutes after the last impulsive interference pulse was detected.

The length of the safety lanyard must not exceed 1m (approx 3 ft) in length. The lanyard should be made from a material that does not degrade in an outdoor environment. The safety lanyard must be fixed to a separate fixing point that is not part of the direct mounting system for the ODU. 7.7 Connecting Up 7.7.
PAGE 57
Figure 18 - Completed ODU connector Both ends of the ODU cable are terminated in the same way. The above procedure should be repeated for the PIDU Plus end of the cable when the cable routing process is complete. Note: The PIDU Plus end of the cable does not employ a cable gland.
PAGE 58
7.7.2 Making the Connection at the ODU The following procedure describes how connection is made at the ODU. It is often easier to carry out this procedure on the ground or a suitable surface prior to mounting the ODU. Ensure no power is connected to the PIDU Plus or present on the cable before connecting the ODU. Step 1: Assemble the cable as described in 5.7.
PAGE 59
Should it be necessary to disconnect the PIDU Plus to ODU cable at the ODU this can be achieved by removing the weather proofing gland and depressing the RJ45 locking tab with a small screwdriver as shown below: Figure 21 - Disconnecting the ODU Warning: Ensure that power is removed from the system at the PIDU Plus to prevent damage to the ODU while making or breaking the connection. 7.7.
PAGE 60
7.7.6 Making the ODU Connection at the PTP 400 Series Bridge PIDU Plus The ODU is connected to the PIDU Plus by means of a concealed RJ45 connector. The RJ45 connection has been placed inside the PIDU Plus hinged cover to prevent the user inadvertently plugging other equipment into the ODU RJ45 socket. Warning: Plugging other equipment into the ODU RJ45 socket may damage the equipment due to the non-standard techniques employed to inject DC power into the 100BaseT connection between the PIDU Plus and ODU.
PAGE 61
Step 3: Replace the cover and secure with the retaining screw 7.7.7 Making the Network Connection at the PIDU Plus – PTP 400 Series The Network connection is made by connecting the user’s Network Equipment directly to the PIDU Plus LAN port as shown in Figure 22.
PAGE 62
7.7.8 Mounting the PTP 400 Series Bridge PIDU Plus Motorola recommends that you mount the PIDU Plus on a wall or other suitable mounting surface. This prevents the unit from being knocked or kicked and can help maintain link availability. Ensure that the reset switch can be accessed when mounting the unit. Step 1: Fix the PIDU Plus to the wall using the lugs provided. Step 2: Make connections as per Section 7.7.
PAGE 63
Figure 23 - PTP 400 Series Bridge PIDU Plus Drip Loop Configuration WARNING: It is possible for moisture to enter the cable due to damage to the outer protective layer. This moisture can track down the inside of the cable, filling up the drip loop and eventually finding its way into the PIDU Plus. To protect against this the outer protective layer of the cable can be opened up at the bottom of the drip loop to allow this moisture to escape.
PAGE 64
7.7.9 Powering Up The PTP 400 Series Bridge is supplied as a pair of matched Master/Slave units. The Master unit to be configured can now be powered up and accessed using the default URL http://169.254.1.2/ ; the Slave unit can be accessed using http://169.254.1.1/ Prior to powering up the PTP 400 Series Bridge, a computer with web browsing capabilities should be configured with an IP address of 169.254.n.n and subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 where n is any value between 1 and 254 but excluding 1.1 or 1.2.
PAGE 65
7.7.10 Aligning the PTP 400 Series ODUs The following is a description of the steps taken to establish a radio link between the two units forming the bridge and align the units for the best signal strength. The PTP 400 Series Bridge uses audible tones during installation to assist the installer with alignment. The installer should adjust the alignment of the ODU in both azimuth and elevation 14 until highest pitch tone is achieved .
PAGE 66
When first started up and from time to time the Master unit will carry out a band scan to determine which channels are not in use. During this time, between 10 and 15 seconds, the Master unit will not transmit and as a consequence of this neither will the Slave unit. During this time the installation tone on the master unit will drop back to the band scan state and the Slave unit will drop back to Scanning state with the pitch of the tone set be the background noise level.
PAGE 67

ARQ Is Not Configured: ARQ must be enabled on both ends of the Point-to-Point link.
PAGE 71
8.2 System Status Page The status page has been designed to give the system administrator a detailed view of the operation of the PTP 400 Series Bridge from both the wireless and network perspectives. The page is subdivided into three main categories Equipment, Wireless and Ethernet/Internet. The ‘Equipment’ section contains the entire unit’s inventory and identification information. The “Wireless” section presents the key wireless metrics displayed as a series of measurements and histograms.
PAGE 72
The following section details all the attributes displayed on the status page: Link Name: The link name is allocated by the system administrator and is used to identify the equipment on the network. The link name attribute is to a maximum size of 63 ASCII characters. Link Location: The link location is allocated by the system administrator and can be used as a generic scratch pad to describe the location of the equipment or any other equipment related notes.
PAGE 73
Half Duplex: Half Duplex data transmission means that data can be transmitted in both directions on a signal carrier, but not at the same time. For example, on a local area network using a technology that has half duplex transmission, one workstation can send data on the line and then immediately receive data on the line from the same direction in which data was just transmitted. MAC Address: The Medium Access Control Layer (MAC) address is used to uniquely identify the equipment on an Ethernet network.

8.3 System Administration Pages The following menu options are available for the system administrator and can be password protected. Figure 28 shows the ‘System Administration Login’ page. By default a system admin password is not set. Simply click the login button to access the system administration features. Once the password has been set using the ‘Change Password’ menu item, the system administration pages will only be available after the user has entered the correct password.
PAGE 78
8.3.1 System Configuration Page The configuration page (Figure 29) is used by the system administrator to configure the PTP 400 Series Bridge. Figure 29 - Configuration Page While the majority of the system configuration is entered during installation and should never require changing, this page offers the system administrator the ability to change the basic system parameters for link, modulation and physical components. Link Name: User defined identity for the unit (max 63 characters).
PAGE 79
Link Mode Optimization: By default, Link Mode Optimization of a point-to-point link is set to ‘IP Traffic’. In this configuration the wireless minimizes packet transmission errors by automatically adapting the active modulation mode based on instantaneous vector error measurements and the presence of codeword errors. This mode of operation is recommended for connection oriented IP traffic protocols where packet loss is perceived by the protocols as an indication of network congestion.
PAGE 80
Target Receive Modulation Mode: This is the maximum mode the unit will use as its adaptive modulation. The modulation modes available are: • • • • • • • • BPSK 1 / 2 QPSK 1 / 2 QPSK 2 / 3 16QAM 1 / 2 16QAM 3 / 4 64QAM 2 / 3 64QAM 3 / 4 64QAM 7 / 8 By default the Target Receive Modulation Mode is 64QAM 7/8. The value in brackets shows the maximum unidirectional data for the current modulation / ranging mode combination.
PAGE 81
Note: At this point you will lose connection to the unit. If you have just changed the IP Address you now have to reconnect to the unit using the address just set. 8.3.2 LAN Configuration Page The LAN Configuration page (Figure 31) is used by the system administrator to configure the network parameters for the PTP 400 Series Bridge. Figure 31 - LAN Configuration Page IP Address: Internet protocol (IP) address.
PAGE 82
Use VLAN for Management Interfaces: If enabled, this allows the use of VLAN for Management Interfaces. Selecting this option presents the user with extra fields in which to enter the management VLAN ID, Priority and whether to validate the VLAN ID.
PAGE 83
These parameters control whether the management interfaces (HTTP/SNMP/SMTP/SNTP) use a VLAN. Selecting this option presents the user with extra fields in which to enter the Management VLAN ID, Priority and whether to validate the VLAN ID. If communication with the unit is lost due to mis-configuration or the user forgot the VID that has been set. The unit can be recovered by resetting the unit to factory defaults as described in Section 3.3.2 “The Power Indoor Unit - PIDU Plus”.
PAGE 84
8.3.3 Save and Restore Menu The save and restore feature of a PTP 400 Series bridge allows the system administrator to backup the operation configuration of the wireless unit. It is recommended that this facility is used immediately after a successful PTP 400 Series bridge installation or prior to any software upgrade. In the unlikely event that a unit has to be replaced in the field, the replacement unit can be reconfigured by simply playing back the saved configuration file.
PAGE 85
Figure 35 - Save Configuration File Screen 83
PAGE 86
The configuration file is encoded using an ASCII encoding scheme. An example is show in Figure 36. Figure 36 - Example Configuration File WARNING: The configuration file is currently restricted to a single software version and can only be restored into a wireless unit operating the software version indicated in the configuration file header. The configuration file can also be used when swapping out a faulty wireless unit.
PAGE 87
The restoration of configuration files can be performed using the Restore configuration tool. Using the browser button to locate the configuration file you wish to restore then click the ‘Restore Configuration File and Reboot’ button (Figure 37). The user will then be prompted to confirm the action (Figure 38).
PAGE 88
Figure 38 - Reset Configuration and Reboot Confirmation Pop-up On confirmation the PTP 400 Series bridge will: o Upload the configuration file o Perform data integrity checking o Erase previous configuration o Apply the new configuration o Restart After the unit has restarted the entire configuration from the configuration file will now be active. Note: The IP address of the unit may have also been changed.

8.3.5 Install Wizard Pages These pages are used during system installation. There follows a description of the install pages along with their use during the installation configuration process. The actual installation process is described in section 7.7.10 “Aligning the ODUs”. All wireless links are shipped as paired units. They are pre-configured at the factory so that they can be installed without the user supplying any configuration. Each wireless link is shipped with a Quick Start Guide.
PAGE 96
8.3.5.1 Manually Configuring the Wireless Units If the installer / system administrator wishes, they may modify the default installation configuration. If only the IP addresses are incorrect it is recommended that the values are changed via the configuration menu (Section 8.3.1). If any other parameters require modification then it is recommended that the system administrator use the Installation Wizard.
PAGE 97
IP Address: Internet protocol (IP) address. This address is used by the family of Internet protocols to uniquely identify this unit on a network. Subnet Mask: A subnet allows the flow of network traffic between hosts to be segregated based on a network configuration. By organizing hosts into logical groups, subnetting can improve network security and performance. Gateway IP Address: The IP address of a computer / router on the current network that acts as a gateway.
PAGE 98
Figure 43 - Additional VLAN Management Options Once complete click the ‘Submit Internet Protocol Configuration’ button or the ‘Next’ link. Note: The internal Ethernet stack used to manage a unit does not support double VLAN tagged packets. Double VLAN tagged packets will be discarded. Note: If you lose contact with your unit due to mis-configuration you will need to reset your unit to factory default as described in Section 3.3.
PAGE 99
8.3.5.3 Wireless Configuration A discussion of the wireless configuration and its relationship to the band of operations is contained in section 5 “General Considerations”. It is recommended that the installer reads this section before commencing with the product installation.
PAGE 100
Master Slave Mode: At this point it is necessary to decide which end will be designated as Master. The Master unit is the controlling unit with respect to the point-to-point link and its maintenance. The master transmits until the link is made, while the Slave listens for its peer and only transmits when the peer has been identified. Link Mode Optimization: By default Link Mode Optimization of a point-to-point link is set to ‘IP Traffic’.
PAGE 101
ARQ State: Automatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ) is a mechanism where packets lost due to transmission errors over the wireless link are retransmitted rapidly. The retransmission helps to prevent TCP congestion mechanisms from inadvertently interpreting intermittent pack loss as network congestion. ARQ must be enabled on both ends of the point-to-point link for it to function.
PAGE 102
Warning: The lower center frequency attribute must be configured to the same value for both the master and slave. Failure to do so will cause the wireless link to fail re-establishment. The only way to recover from this situation is to modify the Lower Center Frequency attribute so that they are identical on both the master and slave unit.
PAGE 103
Default Raster: When the Default Raster option is enabled the pull down selection menus displayed for Fixed Tx Frequency and Fixed Rx Frequency allow the selection of frequencies available within the default channel raster. When this option is not enabled the pull-down selection menus display all available channel centre frequencies. This option is provided to ease the selection of fixed channel frequencies. Fixed Tx Frequency: This field controls the units Transmit frequency.
PAGE 104
8.3.5.4 Confirm Configuration Step 3 of the installation wizard allows the installer to review and confirm the installation information before committing the information to non-volatile memory, as shown for different configuration in Figure 46, Figure 47 and Figure 48.
PAGE 105
Figure 47 - Installation Wizard Confirm Configuration – Fixed Frequency 103
PAGE 106
Figure 48 - Installation Wizard Confirm Configuration – Connectorized 104
PAGE 107
If all the settings are correct and appropriate click the “Confirm Configuration and Reboot Unit” button. All the attributes are committed to non-volatile memory. Immediately following the write to non-volatile memory the unit is reset. Note: If you have changed the Ethernet parameters you must reconnect using the correct network and address settings. If the installer wishes to modify the installation configuration then the ‘Back’ link can be used to access the installation wizard steps described above.
PAGE 108
8.3.5.5 Disarm The next step of the installation wizard is the Disarm Phase. Figure 49 - Disarm Installation.
PAGE 109
Once section 7.7.10 “Aligning the ODUs” is complete pressing the “Disarm Installation Agent” button completes the installation process 24 and the audible installation tone will be switched off. After disarming the wireless link the user is presented with an optional configuration page see Figure 50. The screen presents hyperlinks to the main configuration and spectrum management pages.
PAGE 110
8.3.6 Graphical Install To aid the installation of wireless links two graphical installation aids have been included: • A PDA installation screen • A larger installation screen available from the main HTTP management interface. The design of the installation screen has been deliberately kept simple and uncluttered. An example of the installation screen is shown in Figure 51. Both the PDA and the large format installation screen have the same content and only differ in size.
PAGE 111
The PDA installation tool is accessed via a hidden URL http:///pda.cgi. It should be noted that this link is only available after the user has logged in as system administrator. The large screen version of the graphical user interface is available as a submenu option of the installation wizard. 8.3.7 Software Upgrade The PTP 400 Series Bridge system has two software image banks; one is a fixed image which is stored in protected non-volatile memory and cannot be modified by the user.
PAGE 112
Figure 52 - Software Upgrade – Step 1 The software image will now be uploaded to the unit. This upload should only take a few seconds. Once complete the image is verified and validated to ensure that no errors occurred during transfer and the image is valid to run on the current platform. If there are any problems a warning screen will appear.
PAGE 113
Figure 53 - Software Upgrade Image Check The user should ensure that the correct image is shown before pressing the “Program Software Image into Non-Volatile Memory” button. Once this button has been pressed the image is stored into non-volatile memory. This process can take up to 60 seconds and must not be interrupted. A progress tracking web page will be presented to the user during the erasure and programming of non-volatile memory.
PAGE 114
Once the Overall Update Progress bar has reached 100%, proceed to the next step. Figure 55 - Software Upgrade Complete When the software image has been written to memory Figure 55 will be displayed showing the status of the software upload. Reboot the unit by clicking the “Reboot Wireless Unit” button. This will reboot the unit within 30 seconds, and during this time you will not be able to communicate with the unit. The unit is now fully functional.
PAGE 115
8.3.8 Spectrum Management Spectrum Management Selection (also referred to by the acronym DFS) is the PTP 400 Series Bridge wireless feature that monitors the available wireless spectrum and directs both ends of the wireless link to operate on a channel with a minimum level of co-channel and adjacent channel interference. 8.3.8.1 Wireless Channels The PTP 400 Series Bridge operates using a set of predefined channels.
PAGE 116
The analysis produces four key metrics for each channel: • Peak of Peaks • Peak of Means • 99.9% Percentile of the Means • Mean of Means Peak of Peaks: is the largest peak interference measurement encountered during the quantization period. This metric is useful for detecting large short duration spikes in the interference environment. Peak of Means: is the largest mean interference measurement encountered during the quantization period.
PAGE 117
8.3.8.4 The Spectrum Management Master / Slave Relationship By default Spectrum Management operates in a master / slave relationship. The master is assumed to be the link master configured during installation. All Spectrum Management configuration changes MUST be performed from the master. To enforce this, the Spectrum Management web page has a different appearance depending if you are viewing the data from the master or slave. Figure 56 shows a sample Spectrum Management web page as seen from the master.
PAGE 118
Figure 57 shows a sample PTP 400 Series Spectrum Management web page as seen from the slave. It should be noted that all the key configuration attributes are not available on the slave web page. Figure 57 - Spectrum Management – Slave 8.3.8.5 Spectrum Management Configuration The following section describes the user modifiable configuration accessible from the Spectrum Management web page. It is recommended that the default values are maintained.
PAGE 119
Hopping Period: The Spectrum Management algorithm evaluates the metrics every ‘Hopping Period’ seconds (180 seconds by default) looking for a channel with lower levels of interference. If a better channel is located, Spectrum Management performs an automated channel hop. If SNMP and or SMTP alerts are enabled an SNMP TRAP and/or an email alert is sent, warning the system administrator of the channel change. Hopping Margin: Spectrum Management uses this margin when making a channel hop decision.
PAGE 120
8.3.8.7 Local and Peer Channel Spectrum Graphics Spectrum Management presents its computed statistical measurements in a graphical display on both the master and slave DFS web page. Figure 58 - Sample Spectrum Management Graphic The X-axis shows a stylized view of the selectable wireless channels. See section 5 “General Considerations” for further information. The display separates the display of channels to help the clarity of the resultant display.
PAGE 121
The top of the colored bar represents the 99.9% percentile metric for specific channel. The ‘I’ Bar is used to display the mean of means and peak of means metrics. The lower horizontal bar represents the mean of means and the upper horizontal bar represents the peak of means. The vertical bar is used as a visual cue to highlight the statistical spread between the peak and the mean of the statistical distribution.
PAGE 122
8.3.8.9 Viewing Historic Spectrum Management Metrics Spectrum Management allows the system administrator to view the results of previous measurement quantization periods. Holding down the shift key and clicking the appropriate channel on the local channel spectrum plots activates this feature. This feature is available on both the master and slave webpage. Figure 60 - Spectrum Management Time series Plot Figure 60 shows a sample time series plot.
PAGE 123
Figure 61 - Spectrum Management Help Page 121
PAGE 124
8.3.9 Spectrum Management - Fixed Frequency The software for the PTP 400 Series Bridge allows a user to optionally fix transmit and receive frequencies for a wireless link. Once configured the spectrum management software will not attempt to move the wireless link to a channel with lower co- and adjacent channel interference. Therefore this mode of operation is only recommended for deployments where the installer has a good understanding of the prevailing interference environment. (See Section 8.3.5.
PAGE 125
Figure 63 - Spectrum Management Fixed Frequency Screen- Slave Channel barring is disabled in fixed frequency mode; it is not required as dynamic channel hopping is prohibited in this mode. The only control available to the master is the Interference Threshold attribute. This has no effect on the operation of the wireless link and will only affect the generation of the channel spectrum graphics. The active channel history menu is removed in this mode of operation as channel hopping is prohibited. 8.3.
PAGE 126
When operating with RTTT Avoidance enabled or other regulatory restrictions on channel usage the following variances apply: • A channels marked with a ‘no entry’ symbol with their associated statistics colored black are the prohibited channels. See Figure 64 and Figure 65. These channels are never used to host the wireless link, but interference measurements are still taken so that adjacent channel biases can be calculated correctly and so the user can see if other equipment is in use.
PAGE 127
Figure 65 - Spectrum Management Slave Screen with Operational Restrictions The colored bar represents the following channel state: The channel is currently in use hosting the Point-to-Point wireless link Green Active Orange Interference Blue Available The channel has an interference level below the interference threshold and is considered by the Spectrum Management algorithm suitable for hosting the Point-to-Point link Grey Barred The system administrator has barred this channel from use.
PAGE 128
8.3.11 Remote Management Page The Remote Management page (Figure 66) allows the system administrator to configure the remote management of the PTP 400 Series Bridge.
PAGE 129
8.3.12 SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) The industry standard remote management technique is SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). The PTP 400 Series Bridge supports version 1 and version 2c of the SNMP protocol. 8.3.12.1 Supported Management Information Bases (MIBS) The industry standard remote management technique is SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). The PTP 400 Series Bridge supports SNMP version 1 and version 2.
PAGE 130
SNMP Community String: The SNMP community string acts like a password between the networks SNMP management entity and the distributed SNMP clients (PTP 400 Series Bridge). Only if the community string is configured correctly on all SNMP entities can the flow of management information take place. By convention the default value is set to ‘public’. When the community string is changed the system requires a mandatory reboot before the new string or phrase is adopted.
PAGE 131
8.3.13 SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) The SNTP client allows the PTP 400 Series Bridge to obtain accurate date and time updates from a networked timeserver. The resultant time information is used by the SNMP, web page and System Reboot tasks. SNTP State: The SNTP state attribute controls the creation of the SNTP features. When enabled the following options are available: SNTP IP Address: The IP address of the networked SNTP server. SNTP Port Number: The port number of the networked SNTP server.
PAGE 132
8.3.14 Diagnostics Link performance data is stored as a set of cascaded histograms: • Histogram 1: the last hour at a resolution of 1 second • Histogram 2: the last day (24 hours) at a resolution of 1 minute • Histogram 3: the last month (30 days) at a resolution of 1 hour The histograms are linked together by cascading data from one to the next: As a histogram fills up, the data overflow is used as input to the next histogram in the chain.
PAGE 133
8.3.15 Diagnostics Plotter The system has the diagnostics plotter facility shown in Figure 67. Figure 67 - Diagnostic Plotter The diagnostic plotter allows the system administrator to view the cascading histogram data in an easily accessible graphical form. The plot always displays three traces, maximum, minimum and mean by default. The diagnostic selector allows the user to select the various categories of histogram.
PAGE 134
The diagnostic plotter displays all of the data from the cascaded Histograms 1, 2 and 3. It uses a bespoke x-axis with a compressed timeline so that resolution is not sacrificed. The most recent data is shown to the right, and the oldest data to the left.
PAGE 135
All diagnostics are extracted from the associated status and statistics web page histograms. They are translated in a CSV file containing at most 5784 26 entries. 8.3.17 Change System Administration Password This page (Figure 69) is used to change the password for the system administration (The factory default is blank). Figure 69 - Password Change To change the password any combination of alphanumeric characters, up to 31 characters in length, can be used.
PAGE 136
8.3.18 License Key The License Key data entry page allows the system administrator to update the PTP 400 Series Bridge license key. Figure 70 shows a sample license key data entry page. Figure 70 - Software License Key Data Entry The user must enter the license key and click the ‘Validate License Key’ button to check that the key is valid and store it in non-volatile memory.
PAGE 137
If a valid license key is detected, the user will be presented with a message to say that the key is valid and that the system needs rebooting, as shown in Figure 71. Figure 71 - License Key Reboot Screen 8.3.19 Properties The web page properties screen allows the user to configure the web page interface. Figure 72 - Webpage Properties WEB Properties: Disable Front Page Login Allows access to homepage and status page web pages without forcing a login as the system administrator.
PAGE 138
Use Long Integer Comma Formatting: Enables long integer command formatting, i.e. 1234567 is presented as 1,234,457. 8.3.20 Reboot The reboot page allows the system administrator to perform commanded reboots of the wireless unit. The reboot page also allows the system administrator to view a list of past reboot reasons. The reasons for the reboot field has been implemented as a drop down selection box, where the latest reason for reboot is located at the top of the list.

11 Lightning Protection EMD (Lightning) damage is not covered under warranty The recommendations in this user manual when installed correctly give the user the best protection from the harmful effects of EMD However 100% protection is not implied or possible 11.1 Overview The idea of lightning protection is to protect structures, equipment and people against lightning by conducting the lightning current to ground via a separate preferential solid path and by reducing the electromagnetic field.
PAGE 145
Equipment mounted in Zone A should be capable of carrying the full lightning current. Mounting of the ODU in Zone A is not recommended, and should only be carried out observing the rules governing installations in Zone A 29 Failure to do so may put structures, equipment and life at risk. Equipment mounted in Zone B should be grounded using grounding wire of at least 8 AWG. This grounding wire should be connected to a grounding rod or the building grounding system before entry in to building.

12 Wind Loading 12.1 General Antennas and electronic equipment mounted on towers or pole mounted on buildings will subject the mounting structure to lateral forces when there is appreciable wind. Antennas are normally specified by the amount of force (in pounds) for specific wind strengths. The magnitude of the force depends on both the wind strength and size of the antenna. 12.
PAGE 155
Note: When the connectorized version of PTP 400 Series Bridge is used with external antennas, the figures from the antenna manufacturer for lateral force should be included to calculate to total loading on the mounting structure. 12.3 Capabilities of the PTP 400 Series Bridges The structure and mounting brackets of PTP 400 Series Bridge systems are capable of withstanding wind speeds up to 150mph (242kph).

13.4 Deployment Considerations The majority of radio links can be successfully deployed with the PTP 400 Series Bridge. It should only be necessary to use external antennas where the Link Budget Calculator indicates marginal performance for a specific link – for example, when the link is heavily obscured by dense woodland on an NLOS link or extremely long LOS links (>80km or > 50 miles) over water.
PAGE 164
In some regions, operation of the PTP54400 products is constrained by an EIRP limit. The normal constraint is that the EIRP does not exceed 27 dBm (30 dBm for PTP58400) for radio signals with a bandwidth of >=10 MHz. As the PTP54400 operating bandwidth is approximately 10 MHz, then the limit is 27 dBm EIRP (30 dBm for PTP58400). When operating with external antennas, the installer/operator has to set the maximum transmit power to ensure that the EIRP limit is not exceeded.

13.9.2 Cables and Connectors Cables should be selected using the above criteria. However is should be noted that a cable of a type similar to LMR400 is a lot more difficult to handle and route than a cable of a type similar to LMR100. Motorola recommends the use of weatherproof connectors -- preferably ones that come supplied with an adhesive lined heat shrink sleeve that is fitted over the cable/connector interface.
PAGE 170
When using dual polar antennas the ODU should be mounted in such a position as to minimize the cable length keeping losses to a minimum (taking into account the minimum cable lengths required by the FCC regulations, see section 13.7 ”Antennas for 5.4GHz FCC and Industry Canada Regions”). When using separate antennas the ODU should be mounted in such a position as to minimize both cable runs between the ODU and the antennas. It is not necessary to mount the ODU at the mid point between the antennas. 13.9.
PAGE 171
Step 3: Route and make off the ends of the Antenna cables Step 4: Connect the antenna cables at the antennas Step 5: Connect one of the antenna cables at the ODU Step 6: Connect the ODU to PIDU Plus cable and configure the unit as described in section 7.7 “Connecting Up”. Step 7: Align the connected antenna using the tones as described in section 7.7.10 “Aligning the PTP 400 Series ODUs”. Step 8: Connect the other antenna to the ODU. Step 9: Disconnect the cable to the already aligned antenna.
PAGE 172
13.9.12 Antenna Connection Weatherproofing Where a cable connects to an antenna or unit from above, a drip loop should be left to ensure that water is not constantly channeled towards the connector. Figure 89 - Forming a Drip Loop All joints should be weatherproofed using self-amalgamating tape. It is recommended that a layer of PVC tape be placed over the self-amalgamating tape to protect the joint while the self-amalgamating tape cures and give additional protection.
PAGE 173
13.10 Additional Lightning Protection The following guidelines should be applied in addition to those described in Section 11 ”Lightning Protection”. 13.10.1 ODU Mounted Outdoors Where the ODU is mounted outdoors and is mounted some distance from the antenna it is advisable to add additional grounding by utilizing Andrew Assemblies (such as Andrew Type 223158 www.andrew.com) as shown in Figure 91.
PAGE 174
13.10.2 ODU Mounted Indoors Where the ODU is mounted indoors, lightning arrestors should be deployed where the antenna cables enter the building as shown in Figure 92.
PAGE 175
The lighting arrestors should be ground bonded to the building ground at the point of entry. Motorola recommends Polyphaser LSXL-ME or LSXL lighting arrestors. These should be assembled as show in Figure 93.

14 Wireless Link Encryption The PTP 400 Series Bridge system supports link encryption using the NIST approved Advanced Encryption Standard, FIPS-197. This standard specifies AES (Rijndael) as a FIPSapproved symmetric encryption algorithm that may be used by U.S. Government organizations (and others) to protect sensitive information. Link Encryption is not available in the standard PTP 400 Series Bridge.

17 Q: FAQs Can I source and use my own PoE adaptor with the PTP 400 Series Bridge? No. The PTP 400 Series Bridge uses a non-standard PoE configuration. Failure to use the Motorola supplied Power Indoor Unit (PIDU Plus – PTP 400 Series) could result in equipment damage and will invalidate the safety certification and may cause a safety hazard. Q: Why has Motorola launched the PTP 400 Series Bridge? The PTP 400 Series Bridge is the first product in this band to feature Multiple-Input MultipleOutput (MIMO).
PAGE 193
Q: What else is special about the PTP 400 Series Bridge? There are many special features built-in to the hardware of the PTP 400 Series Bridge. The product offers the highest system gain in its class through high sensitivity antennas for improved signal recovery. It also features a Software Defined Radio system that operates on ultra fast digital signal processors but is controlled by firmware giving the ability to download new firmware when enhancements become available.
PAGE 194
Q: How does the PTP 400 Series Bridge integrate into my data network? The PTP 400 Series Bridge acts as a transparent bridge between two segments of your network. In this sense, it can be treated like a virtual wired connection between the two buildings. The PTP 400 Series Bridge forwards 802.3 Ethernet packets destined for the other part of the network and filters packets it does not need to forward. The system is transparent to higher-level management systems such as VLANs and Spanning Tree.
