Idu-Odu Cables; Table 2-1: Approved Category 5E Ethernet Cables - Alvarion BreezeMAX PRO 5000 CPE Product Manual

Chapter 2 - Installation
In some cases it might be necessary to up/down-tilt the antenna. An optional

Tilt accessory for the ODU providing a tilt range of ±15° is available. The tilt
option may be necessary to either improve the link conditions or, if the SU is
too close to the BTS, to reduce the receive signals strength. As a rule of thumb,
if the SU is located at a distance of less than 300 meters from the BTS, it is
recommended to up-tilt the antenna by approximately 10° to 15° (especially in
line-of-sight conditions) to avoid saturation of the receivers by too strong
signals.
Outdoor units with a connection to an external antenna should be installed as

close as possible to the antenna.
The equipment is designed for fixed, point-to-point operation. That is, in the

same time, the same CPE cannot connect to multiple BTSs; It is the
responsibility of the operator and the installer to take into account that - at
least in the 5725-5850 MHz band - the equipment excludes the use of point-to
multipoint systems, omnidirectional applications, and multiple co-located
intentional radiators transmitting the same information.
