User Manual & AN-80i Chapter 2 2 System Overview The Access Node 80i system is manufactured by Redline Communications -- a world leader in design and production of Broadband Fixed Wireless (BFW) systems. Figure 1: Intro - AN-80i Components The AN-80i is a high-performance, high-speed wireless Ethernet bridge for use in a commercial, industrial, business, or government environment. The system can operate with a 3.3-3.8, 4.9, 5.3/5.4, or 5.
User Manual & AN-80i Each wireless link requires two AN-80i units. One AN-80i is configured as the PTP Master (or PMP Sector Controller) and controls the wireless link. This function is transparent to all Ethernet operations. The sector controller AN-80i uses a scheduled request/grant mechanism to arbitrate requests for bandwidth from the remote unit -providing non contention-based traffic with predictable transmission characteristics. The remote AN-80i operates as a PTP Slave (or PMP Subscriber).
User Manual & AN-80i 2.5 Indoor Power Block (PoE Power Adapter) The PoE power adapter provides power and connection to a local Ethernet network. 2.5.1 AC Power Adapter The AC power adapter input is auto-sensing 110/220/240 VAC 50/60 Hz. Figure 3: Intro - Indoor Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) Module - AC Model 2.5.2 DC Power Adapter The DC power adapter input is auto-sensing 18 - 60 VDC.
User Manual & AN-80i Warning to Service Personnel: 48 VDC Customer equipment including personal computers, routers, etc., must be connected only to the INPUT (DATA) port on the PoE unit.

User Manual & AN-80i 6.2 Procedure to Restore Factory Settings The AN-80i features a method to gain access to the CLI command prompt for a unit where the IP address, username, and/or password is unknown. This method requires local access to the AN-80i PoE power adapter, the ability to power-cycle the AN-80i, a PC with a telnet client, and an Ethernet cable. Figure 38: CLI - Recovering Lost IP Address Use the following steps to gain access to the CLI command prompt: 1. Power-off the AN-80i PoE adapter.
User Manual & AN-80i 6.3 Testing and Saving System Parameters The AN-80i is a highly configurable communications device. All user settings are saved in non-volatile RAM. The system configuration and snmp settings are saved separately. 6.3.1 CLI Interface Use the 'test' command to have the AN-80i load the edited settings. The AN-80i will operate with these settings for a period of five minutes. During the test period, you may click the Save button at any time to save this configuration permanently.
User Manual & AN-80i If the ping is unsuccessful, there may be problems using that IP address; the IP address may be incorrect, or there may be a duplicate address. For correct operation the host computer and the AN-80i must be on the same subnet. For example, if the AN-80i is using the factory default settings, the host computer could be set for an IP of 192.168.25.3 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
User Manual & AN-80i 6.4 Status Codes 6.4.1 PTP Status Codes The PTP status code is displayed in a series of decimal characters representing the status of six different alarm conditions. The value '1' indicates the associated condition is active. All unused bits are set to zero. To determine the status, the decimal number must be converted to binary notation. It is recommended to use a scientific calculator that supports binary notation (i.e., Windows on-screen calculator).
User Manual & AN-80i 6.4.2 PMP Status Codes The PMP status code is displayed in a series of hexadecimal characters representing the status of different alarm conditions. The value '1' indicates the associated condition is active. All unused bits are set to zero. To determine the status, the hexadecimal number must be converted to binary notation. It is recommended to use a scientific calculator that supports binary notation (i.e., Windows on-screen calculator).
