The Atlas5010 is a point-to-point (PtP) wireless Ethernet transmission system which provides network connectivity at speeds up to 45 Mbps depending on the transmission distance and noise floor. The Atlas5010 utilizes OFDM technology and is designed for use in long range backhaul and wide area data networking applications.
Atlas5010-EXT Connectorized radios (part numbers P5010-EXT) 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 P5010M-INT. 2X Radio w/ Internal Antenna...
The reset button does not reset any other parameters other than IP configuration and password. Typically a user would only press the reset button when the IP configuration or password in unknown. Reset button must be held down for approximately 10 seconds. IP Reset Button Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 9...
You are now ready to configure the radio via the Ethernet port. After reboot, the Radio Power LED may take several seconds before lighting. The radio requires approximately 45 seconds to completely start up. Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 10...
Configuration Tools Configuration Tools Atlas5010 radios can be configured using either the Command Line Interface (CLI), or the Web Browser (HTTP) interface. The CLI method provides slightly more functionality. This text covers configuration through the CLI. For HTTP configuration please see Appendix A.
Area code information denotes which channels and power limits are available based on region code of the radio. Area code is set by the factory and can not be altered by the user.

Start a telnet session with one of the radios. Follow these steps for configuration. 1. Set the Unit Type (utype) to MU in one radio. (default for all radios is RU) #> utype mu Success. #> Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 16...
To determine if the two radios are connected, type the sysinfo 2 command. Example: #> sysinfo 2 ********************************* 2 ********************************* [Radio Temp] 32 C [PoE Voltage] 14.2 V [Opmode] on [Default Opmode] on [Active Channel] 20 v [Freq] 5755 MHz Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 17...
Yellow LED 4 : Begins blinking when RSSI is greater or equal to –60 dBm. On continuously at –55 dBm. This is the rightmost LED. If no VALID MU or RU signal is detected the LEDs will not be on at all. Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 18...
In this example the linktest was run at 24 Mbps at each end of the link. The results indicated 10 cycles of 1000 packets were transmitted and received from each end of the link without error. Actual achievable throughput is measured at 22 Mbps. Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 19...
After scanning all available frequencies in channel plan, the radio will select the channel based on the strongest average RSSI for receiving packets. • If no channel is selected after completing the cycle, the process will start again. Example: #> autoscanmu on Success. #> Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 20...
MU and RU. Users can expect faster payload speeds with encryption turned off as compared to with encryption turned on. Example: #> encrypt on Success. #> encrypt key 1111 2222 3333 4444 5555 6666 7777 8888 argc = 10 Success. #> Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 21...
If left wide open, the system will respond to bandwidth demand as needed, allowing the full bandwidth of the channel to be used by either direction. Example: #> mir 10000 Success. #> Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 22...
Afterwards RU will change to that channel with max power. • If no channel is selected after finishing scan cycle, RU will initiate auto scan cycle again after 10 seconds. Trango Broadband Wireless — Atlas5010 page 23...
