3.1. Mounting

Fig. 3.2: RAy2 Microwave link – antenna and FOD unit

The antenna is attached to the mast using a holder adjustable in two planes. The RAy2 unit is then

mounted on the antenna.

There are two possible mounting positions – for horizontal and vertical polarization. Installation and

adjustment of the holder is described in the Section 6.2, “Antenna mounting”.

Note

The RAy2-10 and RAy2-11 units must be mounted with the same polarization while the

units RAy2-17 and RAy2-24 must be mounted with reverse polarity, see Cross polarization.

3.2. Connectors

Each unit is equipped with the following interfaces:

■ ETH1+POE – Gigabit metallic Ethernet port. This port is capable of powering the unit with any

Power over Ethernet power source working according to IEEE 802.3at standard.

■ ETH2 – Slot for user exchangeable SFP module. A wide range of optical modules is available. Both

single or dual mode transceivers can be used. An SFP module with metallic RJ45 interface can

also be used.

The SFP status LED is located just next to the slot.

■ P – DC power connector.

HW button for service purposes.

■ S – USB service connector.

RSS voltage output connectors.

Important

It is strongly recommended to use a high quality SFP module. The SFP modules listed in

Accessories are thoroughly tested by RACOM and are guaranteed to function with RAy2

units. It is possible to use any other SFP module, but RACOM cannot guarantee they will

be completely compatible with RAy2 units.
