System Overview The SmartCloud® Radio Node 800 (SCRN 800) is a low-cost, low-power (100mW) Node B designed for enterprises. The SCRN is 3GPP compliant, supporting Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) Release 6 software and is upgradable to Release 7 and 8. The SCRN provides enterprises with dedicated high-quality, high-capacity UMTS coverage. The SCRN is easy to install and connects to the existing enterprise LAN using standard Ethernet cabling.
System Overview Services Provided The SCRN provides the following services: • Complete enterprise mobility using licensed spectrum. • RF self-calibration for autonomous setup, operation, and management. • Enhanced networking. • Transparent integration into enterprise network environments. SCRN System Isometric Front View and Rear View The following diagrams display an isometric front view and rear view of the SCRN.

Ports and LEDs • 1 10/100 Ethernet port. Attach a category 5 cable to this port. Figure 5 shows the 10/100 port with the tab facing down. There are two LEDs on the connector: Link—On the lower-right corner of the RJ45. Steady green state indicates a normal Layer 2 link connection has been established. Activity—On the lower-left corner of the RJ45. Yellow blinking indicates data activity. Figure 6 Font View STATUS RADIO There are two LEDs on the front of the system: Status and Radio.

They radiate power in a plane normal to their length—horizontal radiation from vertically-oriented antennas.
Installation and Mount Bracket Assembly Installation and Mount Bracket Assembly The SCRN has a pedestal base that slides into a long “U” shaped bracket for ceiling or wall mounting. SpiderCloud pre bolts the pedestal base onto the extrusion plate on the SCRN. However you must attach the pedestal base to the mount bracket as shown in the following diagram: Figure 8 Pedestal Base Slides into Mount Bracket Mount Bracket Pedestal Base AN TA AN TB CONS OLE ETHE RNET 8 SpiderCloud Wireless, Inc.
Hardware Installation Guide for SmartCloud® Radio Node - SCRN 800 Installation Procedure Follow these steps to install the SCRN: Step 1 Choose a location for the SCRN. The unit can be installed in a wide range of locations including walls, ceilings, and plenum spaces. Follow the installation guidelines for choosing appropriate mounting locations for the unit.

The screw holes are sized for an M4 (#10) screw.
Hardware Installation Guide for SmartCloud® Radio Node - SCRN 800 Step 3 Attach the antennas to the TNC connectors on the SCRN. If the SCRN is mounted on the ceiling, flip the antennas pointing downward. If mounted on the wall, flip the antennas pointing upward: Ceiling AN TB ET HER NET CO NSO LE AN TA Wall AN TA AN TB CONS OLE ETHE RNET Step 4 Slide the pedestal base of the SCRN into the groove opening in the mount bracket.

Hardware Installation Guide for SmartCloud® Radio Node - SCRN 800 PoE+ The SCRN is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3at Power Over Ethernet (PoE+) specification. The SCRN gets its power from a standard PoE+ switch (typical) or injector. Per 802.3at, standard CAT-5/5e or better twisted-pair cable with a maximum length restriction of 100 meters (328 feet) should be used for PoE+. This restriction minimizes power loss between the PoE+ power source and the SCRN.
Boot Sequence and SCSN Communication Boot Sequence and SCSN Communication On initial boot, the SCRN performs the following boot sequence and communicates with the SCSN. This sequence takes about 1 minute to complete.

The Join Response from the SCSN will be one of the following: — Join Grant: Permit the SCRN to join the SCSN. — Redirect: Redirect the SCRN to join a different SCSN, if you have multiple SCSN units configured in the network. — Denied: The security signature on the SCRN does not match what the SCSN expects.
