SPEEDCOM SC5800 User Manual 2 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION 2.1 System Overview A SC5800 digital radio link (DRL) consists of a pair of SC5800 radio stations. SC5800 ODU SC5800ODU SC5800 IDU SC5800 IDU User Data User Data The SC5800 radio station consists of two main parts: • An Outdoor Unit operating in the 5.8 GHz ISM frequency band. The Outdoor Unit provides the radio transceiver functionality by accepting radio link data from the Indoor Unit and converting it to the 5.
SPEEDCOM SC5800 User Manual 2.2.1 Frequency plans The SC5800 Outdoor Units operate in the 5.725 GHz to 5.850 GHz ISM frequency band. The SC5800 has predefined frequency channel plans (termed A, B, C and D). 2.2.1.1 Frequency Channel Plan A, B and C Transmit-to-receive channel spacing for frequency channel plans A, B and C is 69 MHz. The channel spacing is based on the bandwidth occupied by the spread spectrum signal (approximately 17 MHz) and is used to optimize link performance.
SPEEDCOM SC5800 User Manual Frequency Channel Plan D Frequency plan D allows independent control of transmit and receive frequencies. This enables a very flexible frequency plan and can be used to overcome interference in the 5.8 GHz ISM band. The frequencies that can be used in the lower or upper sub-bands can be selected in 1 MHz increments.
SPEEDCOM SC5800 User Manual 2.3 Indoor Unit The Indoor Unit is designed for mounting in a 19” rack, occupying a 1U slot, or can be tabletop standing. The Indoor Unit accepts user nE1/nT1 and combines it with Wayside Service Serial Data and IP data to be transmitted across the radio link. The Indoor Unit is fitted with a DC power supply. An AC Bench Power supply can be purchased separately. 2.3.1 Payload Interface Options The Indoor Unit can be configured for nE1 or nT1 operation. • 1, 2 or 4 x E1 (2.

IF YOU OVER-RUN THE SELECTION YOU REQUIRE, CONTINUE UNTIL THE LEDs GO BLANK – THEN, START AGAIN (OPTION AVAILABLE WITH RELEASE 2 OF IU FIRMWARE). 2.3.2 Service (Wayside) Serial Data Channel This port supports asynchronous full duplex, serial data transfer at a speed of 115200 bps. The interface type is RS -232 configured as DCE (Data Communications Equipment).
SPEEDCOM SC5800 User Manual 2.3.5 IU/OU Link LED This LED indicates if there is a suitable electrical connection between the Indoor and Outdoor Units1. 2.3.6 IU/OU Data Interconnect RJ45 This receptacle accepts an RJ45 plug that connects to UV-protected STP (Screened twisted pair) cable used between the IU and the OU. 2.3.7 IU/OU Power Interconnect This connector (socket) is used for power interconnection between the IU and the OU. The connection is made using UV-protected 2-core cable.
SPEEDCOM SC5800 User Manual 2.3.11 ON/OFF Switch This switch is used to control power input to the Indoor Unit (and indirectly the Outdoor Unit). 2.3.12 Ground Terminal This is used to accept connection to an earth strap, terminated with a crimped earth lug. For details on wire/earth lug requirements, see Section 4.1, Custom Furnished Tools & Equipment, page 24.
SPEEDCOM SC5800 User Manual 3 PLANNING This chapter is aimed at management and planning staff to enable them to assess the requirements for installing an SC5800 digital radio link. 3.1 System Type Selection ! The SC5800 system uses an Outdoor Unit with a type-N RF output for connec tion to a range of antennas. ! Antenna polarization can used to co-locate multiple SC5800 systems. ! Antenna polarization can be used to overcome interference. 3.1.
SPEEDCOM SC5800 User Manual 3.2 Site Evaluation When planning a site for a digital radio link, it is of the utmost importance that you take the operational environment of the proposed site into account. The combined effect of atmospheric environmental factors such as rain and lightning, atmospheric attenuation, signal path obstruction, propagation fading, air temperature gradients, ice build-up, wind and solar radiation can contribute towards reducing the level of performance of the system.
SPEEDCOM SC5800 User Manual 3.4 Interference Considerations The ISM frequency bands are used by devices that can cause interfe rence to the SC5800 radio system. Interference can be avoided by careful planning of the system installation. The available methods for providing isolation from interfering radiators are the following: • Frequency diversity • Antenna polarization It is recom mended to scan the proposed installation areas (using a spectrum analyzer) to establish the presence of interference.
