InfiNet Wireless R5000 Technical User Manual I. Getting Started This Technical User Manual is a description of InfiNet Wireless Routers and contains installation and configuration guidelines, recommendations and troubleshooting sections, and supplementary materials. The document is intended to be used by Qualified RF engineers/technicians and IT professionals.
Page 8: Supplementary Information
Powerful integrated diagnostic tools InfiNet Wireless routers are generally used to create geographically spread FBWA transport networks. In its most basic form, a wireless network built with InfiNet Wireless routers consists of a base station and multiple subscriber units deployed one at each end of the wireless links.

In this respect, it is not recommended to use omni-directional antennas when sector antennas can be used. While planning, it is strongly recommended to consult high-qualified and experienced technicians Copyright © 2004-2006 by InfiNet Wireless Limited.
Page 25: Antenna Poles Usage
STP service cable (ODU-IDU) is partially terminated on the grounded IDU case. Partial termination means that the direct lightning strike will probably destroy an STP cable. The service cable pickups from the electromagnetic Copyright © 2004-2006 by InfiNet Wireless Limited.

STP cable. The service cable pickups from the electromagnetic impulses are terminated on the IDU case by the winding shield, and further – on the IDU grounding. IDU is grounded via a three-conductor power cord and a Copyright © 2004-2006 by InfiNet Wireless Limited.
Page 27: Antenna Alignment
• Use GPS receiver and area map • Use build-in InfiNet Wireless Router features. These features allow evaluating current channel/signal quality and perform precise antenna alignment Omni-directional and sector antennas have a wide radiation diagram width, thus usually they either do not require a very precise alignment or it is just not necessary due to radio link requirements.
Page 28: Precaution Measures
This can lead to equipment damaging or may hurt the personnel. While installing or changing the elements of the antenna-fider system one should make sure that open metal parts are temporarily grounded. Copyright © 2004-2006 by InfiNet Wireless Limited.

Page 59: Bitrate Control
Burst – Burst mode is turned on Bitrate control Traditional ways of InfiNet router's usage imply a fixed connection speed between a base station and a subscriber. A subscriber while searching and registering on a base station chooses an optimal mode which is available in the configuration and afterwards does not change connection parameters even if radio channel characteristics (signal levels, noise level) are changing.
Page 60: Polling
A Base Station performs a permanent link testing with a subscriber. Each testing is accompanied by subscriber’s information update in the Base Station’s tables. This mechanism provides a system operator with comprehensive data concerning registered subscribers and links quality without any additional tests launching.

7. Press “Recalculate” button 8. Perform the following actions: • For UPSTREAM speed prognosis use “Signal level by InfiNet scale” parameter for Unit №1. Subtract “Sinking Offset” parameter provided below. Search the calculated value in “Minimal InfiNet scale level required for maximal throughput” in the tables below. If the value matches with the predicted speed, the link works with selected parameters.
