    Regulatory Compliance General Note This system has achieved Type Approval in various countries around the world. This means that the system has been tested against various local technical regulations and found to comply. The frequency bands in which the system operates may be “unlicensed” and in these bands, the system can be used provided it does not cause interference.
  • Page 5 Where Outdoor units are configurable by software to Tx power values other than those for which the product is certified, it is the responsibility of the Professional Installer to restrict the Tx power to the certified limits. Warning This product was tested with special accessories - indoor unit (IDU or PoE), FTP CAT 5e shielded cable with sealing gasket, 12 AWG grounding cable - which must be used with the unit to insure compliance.

    Figure G-1: WinLink™ 1000 Link Setup Expected Signal Level for AIND radios Use the Link Budget Calculator utility supplied on the RADWIN Manager Software CD-ROM to calculate the expected performance of the WinLink™ 1000™ wireless link. The utility allows you to determine the RSS of the link and number of E1/T1 services available at a specified distance.

    Performing WinLink™ 1000 AIND Alignment Appendix G type installations, a long transmission line (RF cable) between the radio and antenna will be used; oftentimes over 30 m (100 ft). In this case the atten- uation (RF loss) of the cable must be determined (for both sides) and entered as a dB loss in the Link Budget calculator.

    What is Hub Site Synchronization? When several units are collocated at a common hub site, interference may occur from one unit to another. RADWIN ODU units support the collocation of up to 16 units at a central site. For WinLink™ 1000, HSS support depends on the product model.
