Page 28: Typical Bridge Deployment
Chapter 1: Product description Overview of the PTP 670 Series Note The supported frequency coverage may be further restricted in some country licenses to comply with the applicable regulations. Typical bridge deployment The PTP 670 is an “all outdoor” solution consisting of a wireless bridge between two sites.
Page 29: Hardware Overview
Chapter 1: Product description Overview of the PTP 670 Series Hardware overview The main hardware components of the PTP 670 are as follows: • Outdoor unit (ODU): The ODU is a self-contained transceiver unit that houses both radio and networking electronics. The PTP 670 ODU is supplied in two configurations:...
Page 30 Chapter 1: Product description Overview of the PTP 670 Series A copper Ethernet Cat5e connection from the ODU (Aux port) to an auxiliary device. • Lightning protection unit (LPU): LPUs are installed in the PSU and Aux copper drop cables to provide transient voltage surge suppression.
Page 31: Wireless Operation
Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation Wireless operation This section describes how the PTP 670 wireless link is operated, including topology, modulation modes, power control and security. Wireless topology PTP 670 supports operation in two distinct topologies: • Point to point (PTP) •...
Page 32: Time Division Duplexing In Ptp Wireless Topology
Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation The Master ODU includes an Ethernet bridging function with address learning to forward Ethernet data traffic via a wireless link to the appropriate Slave, based on the destination address of the end-station reached through the Slave. Traffic with broadcast or unknown unicast destination address is duplicated in the Master and forwarded on each of the links separately.
Page 33 Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation The slave receives the burst from the master. The slave processes the master-slave burst. The slave transmits a burst to the master. A delay occurs as the slave-master burst propagates over the link. The master receives the burst from the slave. The master transmits the next burst to the slave.
Page 34: Time Division Duplexing In Hcmp Wireless Topology
Figure 2 TDD cycle Channel selection The PTP 670 series links are capable of transmitting and receiving on the same channel or on different channels. In other words, the slave-master direction may use a different channel from the master-slave direction. Independent selection of transmit and receive frequencies can be useful in planned networks or for countering interference.
Page 35 Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation The TDD cycle for a simple HCMP sector with two Slave ODUs is illustrated in Figure 3. The steps in the cycle are as follows: The TDD Master transmits a burst to the first TDD Slave. A delay occurs as the Master-Slave burst propagates over the link.

Page 38 1:5 – The capacity in the direction Slave to Master is five times that of the direction Master to Slave. The PTP 670 series achieves this by setting the Burst Duration of the Slave to five times that of the Master.
Page 39: Ofdm And Channel Bandwidth
6-25 OFDM and channel bandwidth The PTP 670 series transmits using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). This wideband signal consists of many equally spaced sub-carriers. Although each sub carrier is modulated at a low rate using conventional modulation schemes, the resultant data rate from the sub-carriers is high.
Page 40: Spectrum Management
Spectrum management measurements The PTP 670 Series performs two mean signal measurements per TDD cycle, per channel. This mean measurement represents the mean received signal power for the 40 microsecond measurement period.
Page 41: Adaptive Modulation
7-29 Adaptive modulation The PTP 670 series can transport data over the wireless link using a number of different modulation modes ranging from 256QAM 0.81 to BPSK 0.63. For a given channel bandwidth and TDD frame structure, each modulation mode transports data at a fixed rate. Also, the receiver requires a minimum signal to noise ratio in order to successfully demodulate a given modulation mode.
Page 42: Mimo
Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation For information about… Refer to… Effect of modulation mode on system System threshold, output power and link loss threshold, output power and link loss page 3-65 How to configure modulation modes Interface Configuration page on page 6-16 Wireless Configuration page...
Page 43: Dynamic Spectrum Optimization
7-15 Dynamic spectrum optimization The PTP 670 series uses an interference mitigation technique known as Dynamic Spectrum Optimization (DSO). Both the Master and Slave continually monitor for interference on all channels and then select the best frequency of operation. This is a dynamic process where the PTP 670 can continually move channels in response to changes in interference.
Page 44: Access Method
Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation • When operating on a channel, the spectrum management algorithm implements a radar detection function which looks for impulsive interference on the operating channel. If impulsive interference is detected, spectrum management will mark the current operating channel as having detected radar (unavailable channel) and initiate a channel hop to an available channel.
Page 45: Wireless Encryption
Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation HCMP topology In the HCMP wireless topology, PTP 670 always uses the Group Access method. The Master and Slave ODUs must all share the same Group ID. Note The configured Access Method provides effective protection against an accidental attempt to form a link with the wrong remote unit.
Page 46: Tls Rsa
Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation TLS RSA Wireless Encryption TLS RSA can be used with the following Access Methods: • Link Access • Group Access Access Method is automatically configured to Group Access in the HCMP topology. Authentication using TLS RSA TLS RSA uses the bidirectional exchange and verification of RSA device certificates to determine the authentic identity of both ODUs.
Page 47: Tls Psk 128-Bit And Tls Psk 256-Bit
Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation Note Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of the remote unit that is attempting to form a connection. Authorization is the check that takes place to confirm that a unit with the authenticated identity is permitted to connect. For example, a genuine unit that is not under the control of the operator might be authenticated, but not authorized.
Page 48: Over The Air Rekeying
Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation Authentication and authorization in TLS PSK 128-bit or TLS PSK 256-bit occur as a single step, based on the secret pre-shared key. Both ends of the link must be configured for the same key size.

Page 155: Radio Spectrum Planning
Chapter 3: System planning Radio spectrum planning Radio spectrum planning This section describes how to plan PTP 670 links to conform to the regulatory restrictions that apply in the country of operation. Caution It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the PTP product is operated in accordance with local regulatory limits.
Page 156: Regulatory Limits
(integrated) Regulatory limits Many countries impose EIRP limits (Allowed EIRP) on products operating in the bands used by the PTP 670 Series. For example, in the 5.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz bands, these limits are calculated as follows: • In the 5.4 GHz band (5470 MHz to 5725 MHz), the EIRP must not exceed the lesser of 30 dBm or (17 + 10 x Log Channel width in MHz) dBm.
Page 157: Conforming To The Limits
Chapter 3: System planning Radio spectrum planning Conforming to the limits Ensure the link is configured to conform to local regulatory requirements by installing license keys for the correct country. When using connectorized ODUs with external antennas, ensure that the antenna gain and feeder loss is configured correctly in the ODU. Available spectrum The available spectrum for operation depends on the regulatory band.
Page 158 Chapter 3: System planning Radio spectrum planning • Dynamic Spectrum Optimization (DSO): In this mode, the unit monitors the spectrum looking for the channel with the lowest level of interference. Statistical techniques are used to select the most appropriate transmit and receive channels. The unit can be configured such that it operates in DSO mode, but does not operate on selected channels.
Page 159: Link Planning
The PTP 670 Series will operate at ranges from 100 m (330 ft) to 250 km (156 miles), within four ranging modes: 0-40 km (0-25 miles), 0-100 km (0-62 miles), 0-200 km (0-125 miles), and 0- 250 km (0-156 miles).
Page 160: Linkplanner For Synchronized Networks
Chapter 3: System planning Link planning • With higher gain connectorized antennas, ensure the predicted receiver signal level (from LINKPlanner) is below -53 dBm (for 5.2 GHz or 5.4 GHz) or below -58 dBm (for 5.8 GHz).
