    2.1.2 Link Availability Harris provides a free tool to users that wish to perform a simple evaluation of a single RF-7800W radio link under ideal environmental and terrain conditions. The Link Budget Tool (available via the Harris Premier site https://rfcommpremier.harris.com) provides a rudimentary calculation of annual Link Availability (Uptime) and can help users choose the right antenna for their specific installation.

    (Harris PN 12069-0030-Axxx and 12069-0031-Axxx) • Dual-linear (V/H) polarized antennas in order to operate at full throughput capacity. (Harris PN RF-7800W- AT2XX) The installation site should be free from major twist or sway under wind loading. A higher mounting location will help guarantee better Line of Sight (LOS) conditions, but can increase the risk of damage due to lightning.

  • Page 42: Access

    RF-7800W SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION AND CONFIGURATION 3.6.5 Access GUI CLI The interface for radio management traffic and over-the-link traffic is shared on the Ethernet port. In certain situations, it may be desirable to separate the management traffic from the over-the-link traffic. This can be done within the radio by tagging management traffic with a specific 802.1Q Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) Identification (ID).
  • Page 43: Fips Mode

    RF-7800W SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION AND CONFIGURATION 3.6.7 FIPS Mode GUI CLI The radio can be placed into a high security FIPS Mode when certain security configuration criteria are met.

  • Page 47: Antenna Alignment

    RF-7800W SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION AND CONFIGURATION 3.8.7 Antenna Alignment GUI CLI SNMP The radio provides aids to aligning the antenna to a remote radio. Radios can be configured to emit a chirping sound (referred to as a buzzer) that chirps faster with higher average Receive Signal Strength Indication (RSSI). The radio GUI also contains a page that refreshes every second and displays the RSSI and Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio (SINADR) for the link.

    RF-7800W SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION AND CONFIGURATION power, radios will increase their power in order to meet the target RSSI. When link conditions improve, radios reduce their power accordingly. All radios will respect the configured maximum transmit power setting. 3.8.10 Interference Mitigation GUI CLI SNMP Interference Mitigation settings are described below.
  • Page 49: Eim Auto Channel Change

    RF-7800W SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION AND CONFIGURATION 3.8.10.4 EIM Auto Channel Change When interference is detected, the radio has the option of initiating all radios to jump to a new, potentially cleaner operating frequency.

If the burst rate is set too high for a given link budget, it will be difficult to initiate and maintain a reliable link. When adaptive modulation is used, maximum and minimum downlink and uplink burst rates must be configured.
  • Page 59: Data Smoothing

    RF-7800W SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION AND CONFIGURATION 3.9.4 Data Smoothing GUI CLI This is a security option that can be activated on a per-link basis. Data Smoothing adds random data to existing user traffic in order to even out each radio’s transmission time. This can help obscure the radios from timing-related attacks, but may have an impact on maximum user throughput when turned on.

  • Page 69: Factory Default Reset Time Frame

    RF-7800W TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE NOTE The Telnet session must connect to the RF-7800W HCLOS Radio within approximately 20 seconds from when the radio starts responding to pings. Logging into the default IP Address will cause the unit to be reset to the factory default configuration.
  • Page 70: Factory Default Reset Behavior

    Symptom: The radio is not able to be managed remotely. • Solution: The default radio IP address is 192.168.26.2. A Console Port cable (Harris PN 12069-3901-Axxx) can be used to locally log into the radio to determine the IP address if the IP address has been changed. If this is not an option, the radio can be power cycled in such a way that will reset the radio's IP address to the default.
