DragonWave Inc. 16 4.1 Lightning Arrestor Units The importance of protecting network and power systems from damaging voltage transients, induced by lightning and other sources, cannot be over emphasized. DragonWave supplies four types of Lightning Arrestor Units.
Installation Requirements 17 Mounting systems for the indoor units include a 19” rack mounting adapter, which accommodates up to two units within a 1U rack space, and wall mount brackets, allowing a single unit to be wall, or shelf, mounted as required (screw slots will accommodate 6mm (1/4”) diameter screws on 7.2” centres, horizontally).
DragonWave Inc. 18 DO NOT mount the PonE unit to the tower! The Outdoor rated PonE Injector/Lightning Arrestor MUST be mounted as close as possible to, and above, the building entry point (BEP) and its external grounding lug must be connected to the nearest lightning (LPS) ground with #6 AWG (minimum) grounding wire, avoiding loops and sharp bends.
Installation Requirements 19 4.2 Grounded Power Feeds Where the return side of a site-supplied power feed is grounded, provision is made on all versions of the lightning arrestor units to link the return feed to the integral grounding lug on the unit. A shorting link is stored on J4. When grounding is required, this is transferred to J5 (see Figure 4-6).
DragonWave Inc. 20 4.3 Ethernet Cabling – Copper Interface DO NOT coil excess Ethernet cable, but fold in a zig-zag fashion whilst observing a minimum bend radius of 2 inches. The effect of lightning induced current surges in the tower or conductors adjacent to the Ethernet cable will be minimized when the Ethernet cable is folded in this way.
Installation Requirements 21 4.3.2 Outdoor PonE Unit Weatherproof Grommet Seals The cable entry points into the outdoor PonE unit are protected from moisture ingress by special rubber grommet seals. Each grommet has three holes to accommodate up to three cables (two CAT5 and one power). Rubber plugs are provided for holes that are not being used. Two holes, for CAT5, have a split side to allow pre-terminated cables to be easily inserted.
DragonWave Inc. 22 4.3.4 Assembling the RJ45 Connector Shielded, weatherproof RJ45 connector shells are used for connecting the CAT5E cable, leading from the power-on-Ethernet power supply and network connections, to the Horizon Compact Plus. Note: Shield and drain wire MUST be connected to metal head shell of RJ45 connector at BOTH ends of outdoor cable! Two different styles of connector have been used in production.
Installation Requirements 23 “Push fit” Style This connector relies on a gland nut to hold the assembly firmly together. The CAT5E cable is threaded through all the components of the connector housing (see Figure 4-12) before the cable is terminated as a straight through connection with a shielded RJ45 connector. Once terminated, the RJ45 connector slides back into the connector housing which accepts the tab on the RJ45 connector.

5.0 Powering the Horizon Compact Plus Before an active management session can be started on the Horizon Compact Plus, power needs to be provided to the unit. Read this section completely before applying power to the Horizon Compact Plus. Caution : Ensure correct voltage polarity before connecting external DC supply to Horizon Compact Plus Unit. The DC feed into the equipment shall be protected by a 3A rated over protection device provided as part of the building installation.
Powering the Horizon Compact Plus 27 5.1.2 Using the Indoor PonE Unit Figure 5-2 Connecting Power Using Indoor PonE Unit – Copper Interface 5.1.3 Steps to Connecting Power 1. Connect Port 1 of the Horizon Compact Plus to the correct socket on the PonE/lightning arrestor using a straight through, shielded, Ethernet cable (see caution above). 2.
DragonWave Inc. 28 5.1.4 PonE Status LED Both the Outdoor and Indoor rated PonE units have a green status LED (see Figure 5-3) which indicates the status of the power-up cycle. When power is applied to the PonE adapter, prior to it attempting to apply power to the Horizon Compact Plus, the PonE management system checks for under/over-voltage and open or short circuit conditions. If any such condition exists, then the PonE adapter will not apply power to the Horizon Compact Plus.
Powering the Horizon Compact Plus 29 5.2 Optical Interface In the copper interface version, power is fed to the Horizon using PonE techniques via the Ethernet connection to Port 1. In the optical version, this is not possible, so power is fed via the connection to Port 2. Port 2, on the optical interface variant, is equipped with a weatherproof MIL style multi-pin connector, which incorporates an Ethernet connection and a power feed (NOT PonE) connection. 5.2.
DragonWave Inc. 30 5.2.2 Alternate Power Feed Option - “Y” Feed Adapter Cable Where distances prevent the use of the composite cable due to power feed loss, a special “Y” feed adaptor cable is available that allows customer provided, heavier duty, wires to be spliced into the power feed connection. The gland fitting on the DragonWave Lightning Arrestor unit accepts and seals a round cable with a jacket diameter between 0.35 and 0.62 inches.

7.0 Antenna Mounting and Tower Specifications The Horizon Compact Plus unit clip mounts onto a range of antennas, providing a variety of gain and range options. The same mounting system is used for all sizes of antenna. Where multiple Dragonwave radio systems are located on the same pole/tower, it is recommended that all radios be either TxHigh or TxLow. Figure 7-1 Horizon Compact Plus showing clip mount features The Horizon Compact Plus unit has two, integral, spring loaded, mounting clips.
Antenna Mounting and Tower Specifications 43 7.1 Polarization Point-to-point Horizon Compact Plus units that operate on licensed radio bands use a diplexer system to simultaneously handle transmitted and received signals to/from the dish/reflector. In this case, both transmit and receive radios must have the same signal polarization.
DragonWave Inc. 44 7.1.2 LMDS and Unlicensed Radio Bands (UL24) For 31 GHz licensed LMDS radio bands and the 24 GHz unlicensed radio bands, regulatory bodies require that radios in a system have to be cross-polarized. This means that the polarization of the transmitter signal at one end of the link, or distribution system, is vertical and the transmitter signal polarization at the other end is horizontal.
Antenna Mounting and Tower Specifications 45 7.2 Pole and Tower Specifications It is important that mounting posts or towers used meet the DragonWave specifications for rigidity to minimize the effects of twist and sway on the alignment of the link. Note that the maximum twist and sway angle allowable is equal to half of the antenna beam width.
8.0 Grounding, Power and Lightning Arrestors Note: For effective protection against lightning-induced surges, proper grounding and shielding practices MUST be followed for the ENTIRE installation. Consult DragonWave Inc. Technical Note: HC-TN-001 Horizon Compact Plus PonE and Quick Reference Guide before installation! The Horizon Compact Plus unit must be grounded using a minimum of 6 AWG copper wire attached to the metric thread (M6 x 1.0), grounding point as shown in Figure 8-1.
Preparing for Alignment 47 8.1 Power on Ethernet (PonE) The copper interface variant of Horizon operates on -48 VDC and employs a proprietary Power on Ethernet solution. The Horizon Outdoor and Indoor Power on Ethernet Lightning Arrestor units provide integration of -48 VDC and data signals on the straight through Ethernet data cable. Power is not integrated onto the optional out-of-band management Ethernet cable. Note: The Horizon PonE implementation is proprietary and does not follow IEEE standards.
DragonWave Inc. 48 Figure 8-2 Outdoor Lightning Arrestor and Power injector Cables are secured in the Outdoor PonE unit by means of the cable entry gland nuts. A special threehole, rubber, grommet is provided to accommodate two CAT5 cables, plus a power feed cable (See Section 4.3.2). Cables with sheath diameters of between 0.35” and 0.62” can be accommodated when the special grommet is removed.

9.0 Locating Horizon Compact Plus Systems For both licensed and unlicensed systems, their location, relative to nearby obstacles, is an important factor to consider when planning an installation. For systems mounted on buildings, roof edges and parapets, the roof surface itself, air conditioning plant, other antenna systems, walls and overhead objects are all considered potential obstacles. On tower mounted systems you must consider the proximity of other antenna systems and mounting hardware.
Preparing for Alignment 51 The following figures illustrate examples of correct and incorrect system location. Figure 9-1 Correct & Incorrect System Location Near field effects are also experienced above and on each side of the front of a system. Ensure that these areas are also free of obstructions. Horizon Compact Plus Release 1.0.
DragonWave Inc. 52 9.2 Clear Line of Sight (LoS) The DragonWave Horizon Compact Plus requires a clear LoS between the units at each end of the link. You must be able to see an unobstructed view of the antennas from each end. Avoid obstacles that are close to the LoS mid-way between antennas, but not blocking it, as this can have a negative impact on signal quality (Fresnel zone clearance). The Fresnel zone is an area of the antenna radiation pattern that lies mid way between the two system antennas.
Preparing for Alignment 53 This page is left blank intentionally Horizon Compact Plus Release 1.0.
10.0 Preparing for Alignment The Horizon Compact Plus and antenna assembly is attached to the mounting post, or tower, with a specialized mounting bracket that allows fine orientation adjustment of the Horizon/antenna assembly. The same mounting bracket is used for all antenna sizes. Visual alignment is achieved by rotating the assembly on the post, or tower, and positioning the assembly so that the antenna is visually aligned with the target system before tightening the mounting bracket clamp.
Preparing for Alignment 55 BNC to banana jacks cables are available from DragonWave Figure 10-2 Voltmeter connections to BNC field strength monitoring connector 2. Alternatively, readings can be made remotely via the Web interface, using the Tools – Link Alignment menu option. An operator would then have to continually relay RSL readings, via a radio or cell telephone, to the rigger adjusting the positioning of the system. Horizon Compact Plus Release 1.0.
DragonWave Inc. 56 10.2 Important Factors When you prepare to align the radio antennas, you must consider three important factors: 1. the radiation patterns of dish antennas (main lobe and side lobes) 2. the need for a Clear Line of Sight (LoS) (see Section 0) 3. the sensitivity of the alignment adjustment 10.2.1 Antenna Radiation Patterns Dish antennas radiate a primary signal (main lobe) and a number of secondary signals (side lobes). The main lobe is the strongest.
Preparing for Alignment 57 Figure 10-3 Main and Side Lobes Figure 10-4 Typical main lobe coverage using 23 GHz Radio with 24” dish antenna Table 10-2 Approximate size of beam at destination Beamwidth 1 km 3 km 5 km 8 km 10 km 35m 105m 175m 280m 350m 1.3˚ (36” antenna) 23m 68m 114m 182m 227m (48” antenna) 18m 54m 90m 144m 175m 2˚ 1˚ (18/24” antenna) Horizon Compact Plus Release 1.0.

11.0 Aligning the Antennas Follow the steps of the alignment procedure shown below. Note: ensure that the CLI command set alignment on has been entered at both ends of the link if you are using the BNC connector to measure field strength. The alignment process is carried out in two stages. 1. Visual alignment of the antennas 2. Radio frequency alignment of the antennas 11.1 Visual Alignment of the Antennas This section details how to align the Horizon Compact Plus antennas visually.
Preparing for Alignment 61 Figure 11-1 Aligning Systems Using Local Landmarks 3. If the far end site is NOT visible (due to poor visibility), and there are no visible land marks, use a GPS unit to obtain accurate coordinates for each end of the link. Plot these on a map of the area and draw a line between each site. Using a compass, physically align the map so that the magnetic North compass bearing marked on the map coincides with actual magnetic North shown on the compass.
DragonWave Inc. 62 11.2 Radio Frequency (RF) Alignment of the Antennas This section describes how to perform the RF alignment of the Horizon Compact Plus systems antennas. Note: The Horizon Compact Plus BNC Field Strength connector serves two purposes. It is used for RF alignment and for system redundancy purposes. When used for RF alignment it provides an output voltage of 1 mV DC per dB of signal strength.
Preparing for Alignment 63 Follow the steps of the alignment procedure shown below: Note: When loosening pan and tilt lock nuts, loosen only enough to allow the mechanism to move freely. If lock nuts are too loose the antenna will move out of alignment when the lock nuts are re-tightened.
DragonWave Inc. 64 11.3 Signs of a Healthy Link You can be confident that a link is properly aligned and free of problems if the following readings are obtained during a Telnet or Web interface session with each end of the link : No alarms – use the CLI command get alarms and press Enter to return a list of current alarms – should be none that cannot be explained by network status Received signal level (RSL) within ±3 dB of link budget figure in clear weather.
