Overview - Cisco BWX 8415 Installation And Commissioning Manual

Overview

3.1 Scope of this Guide
This document was created specifically for the BWX 8415 Basestation (BS), which allows service
providers to service users with Mobile WiMAX technology.
WiMAX is a standards-based, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (OFDMA)
technology. The procedures in this document are non-frequency specific. This guide serves as the
instructions for all BWX 8415 BS installations.
3.2 How to Use This Guide
Properly installing and commissioning a BS into commercial operation begins with planning. Cisco
advises skills-certified Installation & Commissioning Technicians to review this entire document and its
referenced material at the beginning of a successful deployment.
Cisco is serious about ensuring your success. In fact, Cisco does not warranty its hardware if the BS has
not been deployed by a Cisco skills-certified Installation & Commissioning Technician. To install and
commission a BS, you will need a standard toolkit, as well as Cisco-specific tools, software,
documentation, and forms that are explained in this guide.
Some procedures described in this guide are optional because they depend upon a particular
configuration or service provider preference. If you are not certain whether or not you should perform
an optional task, please feel free to contact your account representative or Cisco Technical Assistance
Center (TAC) for assistance. Unless specified as optional, assume the procedure or task must be
completed.
