37) is required for the PSU drop cable connection to the ODU. If the ODU is to be connected to an auxiliary device, one additional LPU and grounding kit is required for the Aux drop cable. Order the kits from Cambium Networks (Table 38).
Each connectorized ODU requires one external antenna (normally dual-polar). For connectorized units operating in the USA or Canada 900 MHz, 4.9 GHz, 5.1 GHz, 5.2 GHz, 5.4 GHz or 5.8 GHz bands, choose external antennas which are recommended by Cambium Networks. Do not install any other antennas.

Chapter 2: System hardware GPS synchronization GPS synchronization GPS synchronization description Cambium offers GPS synchronization to limit the network’s own self-interference. The Cluster Management CMM provides Global Positioning System (GPS) synchronization to the Access Point (AP) and all associated Subscriber Modules (SM). Network operators have a choice of UGPS and CMM solutions to select the option that works best for the environment.
Chapter 2: System hardware GPS synchronization CMM4 (Rack Mount) The Cluster Management Module (CMM) is the heart of the Cambium system’s synchronization capability, which allows network operators to reuse frequencies and add capacity while ensuring consistency in the quality of service to customers.
