WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 1. Introduction Thank you for purchasing WipAir solution. WaveIP's WipAir series is a carrier-grade point-to-point and Point-to-multipoint broadband wireless solution that sets a benchmark of unrivaled performance, reliability, capacity, latency and RF robustness, making it the ultimate choice for future-proof wireless system. 1.1 Applications Point-to-Point (PTP): The basic subsystem is composed of a Master Unit (MU) and a Slave Unit (SU).
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 1.2 Technical overview WipAir introduces unmatched benchmark of features and built in technological advantages: • Advanced OFDM 2x2 MIMO - Utilizing superior Advanced OFDM 2x2 dual polarization MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output), WipAir 8000/6000 provides cutting edge advantages: o Higher capacity and spectral efficiency - 100 Mbps full duplex. 2x2 MIMO transmits 2 streams that double the throughput on same channel bandwidth.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide • Dynamic asymmetric capacity - up/downstream throughput is optimized according to the actual traffic load. • Output Power – High Tx power and high dynamic range. • Versatile radio – increase flexibility and scalability: • o Configurable channel bandwidth (5/10/20/40 MHz) maximizes capacity and availability. o Multiple frequency bands in one radio.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide Figure 1-3: Multiple WipAir MUs on one tower Without time synchronization, one MU will transmit while the other MU receives. The transmittion of the first MU will block the reception of the second MU since they are close to each other (can even occur when the MUs are on different channels).

WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide Figure 1-8: Link Manager The Link Manager contains a built in: • RF analyzer. • Numerous link indicators and counters. • Traffic generator – throughput test tool.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 1.3.3 Standard Protocols WipAir supports the following protocols: • WEB (HTTP) – Manage the radio using an Internet browser. • SNMP – Supports v2c with a private MIB, Traps and notifications. • Telnet.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 2. Installation 2.1 Packing List When you first open the package, verify that the unit is complete with the following components: 1. Outdoor Unit – WipAir MU or SU. 2. Indoor PoE Outlet. 3. Indoor Power Supply (AC input). 4. Pole mounting kit (will not be added if advanced mounting kit is provided). 1 2 4 Figure 2-1: General System View 2.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 2.3 Installation Overview This section provides installation information for WipAir system. Note: Outdoor units and antennas should be installed ONLY by experienced installation professionals who are familiar with local building and safety codes and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate government regulatory authorities.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 5) Mount the Indoor Outlet. 6) Connect the Outdoor-to-Indoor cable to the PoE Outlet ‘OUTDOOR’ port. (This port supplies 48 VDC in addition to the Ethernet data). 7) Connect the CAT5 Ethernet cable from the user’s network/PC to the PoE Outlet ‘10/100 B-T’ port. 8) Connect the power supply to the PoE Outlet power port (‘48VDC’). 9) Align the antenna and secure the unit by fastening the mounting screws. 2.3.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 2.3.2 Mounting Outdoor Unit can be mount on a pole or on a wall. A general description of wall mount is given in Figure 2-3. Figure 2-3: Wall mount description Note: all outdoor units must be installed with a separation distance of at least 2.5 meters from all persons during normal operation. 2.3.3 Antennas 2.3.3.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 2.3.3.2 Tx power The outdoor unit transmit power is configurable using the Link Manager. The Link Manager limits the max transmit power according to the antenna gain, the regulation and the frequency band. The installer, if needed, can select a lower power. Regulation of the unit defines the frequency band supported by the units: FCC: 5.8 GHz. ETSI: 5.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz. Mexico: 4.95-4.99 GHz, 5.15-5.35 GHz and 5.8 GHz. Non-regulated: 5.x GHz.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide Dynamic range of Tx power in WipAir is 40 dB. In Point-to-Multipoint mode, the Link Manager software will automatically reduce the Tx power according to the antenna gain. For example: • For integrated antenna of 23 dBi, the Max Tx power allowed by the Link Manager is 13 dBm (10 dBm in WipAir 8000/6000) to meet the EIRP limitation of 36 dBm. • For integrated antenna of 28.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 2.3.4.2 Using the Built in RSSI buzzer WipAir units have a built in RSSI buzzer that indicates the best mounting location. The buzzer is beeping at four tone levels: • Fast – highest signal obtained so far. • Medium – the current alignment is lower than the highest signal obtained so far. • Slow – the current alignment is much lower than the highest signal obtained so far. • No sound – no reception of the base station at all (or the buzzer is off).
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 2.3.6 Cables Straight CAT5 Gauge 24-shielded outdoor rated cable must be installed between Outdoor Unit and Indoor Outlet. The cable should be UV resistant, flame retardant, UL listed and contain at least 4 twisted pairs. The outdoor cables scheme is given in Appendix A – Outdoor Cables Scheme. The Indoor PoE Outlet side and Outdoor Unit side are crimped using RJ-45 tool. CAT5 cable must not exceed 300 feet (91 meters).

WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 2.3.8 Grounding 2.3.8.1 Grounding the Outdoor Unit (MU /SU) The outdoor unit shall be connected to a protective earth with not less than 10 AWG conductors having green-yellow insulation. The following figure shows the grounding cable from outdoor unit external screw to adjacent grounding rod. The cable should be long enough to reach from the mounting pole to the grounding rod with 3 to 6 feet extra to allow for strain relief.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide FCC Notice This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
WaveIP Ltd. WipAir Installation Guide 2.5 Synchronization WipAir was designed to work with co-located antennas. That means that two or more units can be mounted close to each other. Time synchronization allows reusing frequencies between co-located links and configured with the Link Manager advanced window. The synchronization signal is generated by an external GPS (1 PPS). To configure time synchronization, set all MUs to synchronization Enable and Slave mode.
