  • Page 25: Product Architecture

    Product Architecture  The Canopy 30/60 Mbps Backhaul consists of an identical pair of units deployed one at each end of the link. The radio link operates on a single frequency channel in each direction using Time Division Duplex (TDD). One unit is deployed as a master and the other as a slave. The master unit takes responsibility for controlling the link in both directions.
  • Page 26 The 30/60 Mbps Backhaul is fully software upgradeable. New software images are first download from the Motorola website http://www.motorola.com/canopy to a convenient computer. The image is then uploaded to the ODU via the web management page described in Section 8.3.9 “Software Upgrade”. The compressed image is first loaded into RAM and check- summed.

  • Page 27: General Considerations

    General Considerations   SPECTRUM PLANNING   The 30/60 Mbps Backhaul has two frequency variants in its product range. The 5.7 GHz variant operates between 5.725 to 5.850 GHz (defined as the USA ISM band and the ETSI 5 GHz band C). The 5.4 GHz variant operates between 5.470 to 5.725 GHz (defined as the ETSI 5 GHz band B).

    7.7.8 Mounting The 30/60 Mbps PIDU  Motorola recommends that you mount the 30/60 Mbps PIDU on a wall or other suitable mounting surface. This prevents the unit from being knocked or kicked and can help maintain link availability. Ensure that the reset switch can be accessed when mounting the unit.

  • Page 45: Powering Up

    Warning The 30/60 Mbps PIDU is not waterproof and should be mounted away from sources of moisture. If mounted outdoors the 30/60 Mbps should be mounted in a rainproof enclosure, preferably ventilated. It is also recommended that you fit a drip loop on the 30/60 Mbps PIDU to ODU cable to ensure that any moisture that runs down the cable into the cabinet or enclosure cannot enter the 30/60 Mbps PIDU.

    Before physical installation takes place the units to be installed should be set up as described in the Section 8.3.6. This process will give the installer the opportunity to set the units IP address to one that is in the desired address range and set each unit up with the MAC address of its peer unit ready to establish a radio link.

  • Page 131: Wind Loading

    Wind Loading  12.1 GENERAL  Antennas and electronic equipment mounted on towers or pole mounted on buildings will subject the mounting structure to lateral forces when there is appreciable wind. Antennas are normally specified by the amount of force (in pounds) for specific wind strengths. The magnitude of the force depends on both the wind strength and size of the antenna.

  • Page 132: 30/60 Mbps Backhaul Capabilities

    Note: When the connectorized version of 30/60 Mbps Backhaul is used with external antennas, the figures from the antenna manufacturer for lateral force should be included to calculate to total loading on the mounting structure. 12.3 30/60 MBPS BACKHAUL CAPABILITIES  The structure and mounting brackets of the ODU are capable of withstanding wind speeds up to 151mph (242kph).

    13.8.6 Alignment Process  When aligning antennas deployed with a connectorized 30/60 Mbps Backhaul it may not be possible to hear the alignment tone emanating from the connectorized 30/60 Mbps Backhaul. In this case it may be necessary for a second installer to assist in the operation. Alternately it may be possible to extend the tube on the supplied stethoscope to give a longer reach.

  • Page 146: Figure 85: Forming A Drip Loop

    Warning: Final tightening of the antenna mountings may cause the antenna alignment to be altered due to distortion in the mounting bracket caused by tightening. It is recommended that the installation tone be left turned on (armed) during this process so that any movement can be noticed and counter acted by tightening the other side of the bracket.
