Preface Preface This manual covers the basic configuration and installation of the ATLAS5010 Wireless Point to Point Broadband System, and applies to the following radio part numbers: P5010M-INT Unit with internal patch antenna The ATLAS5010-INT consists of two P5010M-INT radios which have internal 23 dBi antennas with electronically selectable polarization. The ATLAS5010M-INT package also contains universal power adapters and mounting hardware for a pole. This device requires professional installation.
Overview Chapter 1 Overview The ATLAS5010 is a point-to-point (PtP) wireless Ethernet transmission system provides network connectivity at speeds up to 45 Mbps depending on the transmission distance, noise floor, and the antenna configuration. The Atlas5010 uses OFDM technology and is designed for use in long range backhaul and wide area data networking applications.
Overview Range vs. Throughput The following table shows approximate maximum ranges (at recommended fade margins) achievable with the ATLAS5010 system using various antenna configurations. Longer ranges are achievable, but will result in lower fade margins.
Overview System Contents Each ATLAS5010 kit consists of two radios, two power-over-Ethernet (PoE) injectors, two AC adapters, port covers, and mounting hardware. A dual-polarized integrated antenna is located behind the radome of the P5010MINT. Location of Serial Number & MAC Address The serial number and MAC address label can be found on the back of each radio. The serial number and MAC address is also provided on the system information screen. Trango Broadband Wireless P5010M- INT Rev.
Overview Location of RJ-45/LED Port The RJ-45 connector, diagnostic LEDs, and reset button are located at the bottom of the radio. Functionality of the LEDs is described later in this text. The reset button resets all configuration settings (including IP address and password) back to factory default. Hold the reset button down for 5 seconds (until amber lights flash) while unit is powered on.
Getting Started Chapter 2 Getting Started It is recommended that you first provision and test your the radios on the bench before deploying them in the field. This is a particularly useful exercise for the novice user. Connections and Power • Connect a Cat-5 (straight through) Ethernet cable (we recommend shielded twisted pair) between the ODU (out door unit) port of the J-box and the RJ-45 connector on the radio. Note that this cable will carry power-over-Ethernet (PoE).
Getting Started This text covers configuration through the CLI. For HTTP configuration please see Appendix A. Telnet Open a command prompt (DOS) session on your PC. Open a Telnet session by typing: telnet Example: C:>telnet 192.168.100.100 Note: All Trango radios are pre-configured at the factory with a default IP address of 192.168.100.100. You will be greeted with current hardware and firmware information and prompted for a password. Type in the password and press enter.

Getting Started To view only a particular section of the sysinfo screen, type sysinfo followed by the desired section number. Example: #> sysinfo 2 ********************************* 2 ********************************* [Opmode] off [Default Opmode] off [Active Channel] 1 h [Freq] 5260 MHz [Speed] 24 Mbps [Tx Power] 0 dBm [Power Range] -4..19 dBm [Tx MIR] 50000 Kbps [ARQ] on [Encrypt] off [Key] 0011 2233 4455 6677 8899 AABB CCDD EEFF [Peer ID] DE1B7850 [Status] disconnected [RSSI] -49 dBm Success.
Configuration Chapter 3 Configuration Key Concepts Prior to configuring the radios it is important to understand several key concepts: Master Unit (MU) The MU is typically considered the primary radio within the link. For management purposes it is recommended to install the MU closest to the head-end of the network. Remote Unit (RU) The RU is typically installed at the remote end of the link.
Configuration Ch# 23 h (5815 MHz) Success. 4. Set default Opmode to ON. #> defaultopmode on Success. 5. Turn Opmode ON. #> opmode on Success. . Remote Unit Configuration Configure the RU in the same manner as the MU. Since the default unit type (utype) is RU, you do not need to set this parameter. 1. Set the Peer ID with the MAC address of the MU. Only use the last 8 digits of the MAC address. #> peerid de1B7842 Success. #> 2. Set channel and polarization.
Configuration The [status] field indicates whether the MU and RU are connected or disconnected. If connected, the MU and RU will automatically start passing Ethernet traffic over the wireless link. Changing IP Address Use the ipconfig command to change the radio’s ip address, subnet mask and gateway. Syntax: ipconfig [ ] Example: #> ipconfig 10.8.2.140 255.255.255.240 10.8.2.129 New configuration: [ip] 10.8.2.140 [subnet mask] 255.255.255.240 [gateway] 10.8.2.
Configuration - Twice per second while in opmode ON and scanning for an MU or RU. - Solid after unit is associated with the RU or MU. RF Link Loopback Test (linktest command) The linktest command tests the throughput and packet error rate (PER) on the current channel for each direction at all speeds and reports results. This command also provides RSSI for both ends of the wireless link. The command can be run from either the MU or the RU.
Configuration 48 54 -75 -73 18 18 7 7 In this example the user sets the power to 19dBm and the speed to 24 Mbps: #> power 19 Execution in progress... . 19 dBm (-4..19) Success. #> speed 24 24 Mbps Success. #> Command Reference Listing The complete command set reference is provided below. You can also view a complete listing of all CLI commands by typing help.

Deployment & Installation Chapter 4 Deployment & Installation Once you are familiar with the basic operation of the radios you are ready for deployment in the field. The deployment process consists of the following steps: • Site Selection • Site survey at MU and RU sites • MU installation • RU installation and antenna alignment • Link test Site Selection Proper site selection for your MU will help ensure a successful deployment.
Deployment & Installation RSSI Command and Antenna Alignment Once the site survey is completed, you are ready to install your radios. Typically it is best to install the MU first. To properly align the radios, use the built-in RSSI tool to achieve maximum signal strength. 1. Ensure MU and RU are in Opmode “ON.” 2. Connect to the RU. 3. Login and type the command rssi. As you read the RSSI, move the antenna in the horizontal and vertical planes until the maximum RSSI reading is achieved 4.
Deployment & Installation Port Plug and Port Plate Prior to deployment, insert the silicone port plug around the Cat-5 Cable and insert into the radio’s port opening. Next, screw the port plate over the silicone plug as shown in the photographs below. Mounting Hardware Radios are supplied with mounting hardware for pole installations. See diagram below for proper use of the mounting hardware. 8.50 MAX 10.00° UPTILT 25.
SNMP Grounding Proper mounting of the radio includes consideration for grounding. Please note that if the radio is attached to a metal pole that is earth-grounded, no other grounding is necessary. If the radio is not earth-grounded via the mounting bracket, you must attach a grounding wire to the grounding stud on the radio as in the adjacent diagram. Cabling and Weather Considerations Shielded twisted pair Cat-5 cable is recommended for all installations.
