Page 31: Recommended Antennas
Recommended Antennas 7.1 Introduction to Antennas Antenna is an electrical device which distributes signals transmitted by the wireless radios, through the medium of air in a particular pattern. Antennas focus the signals on a given frequency, by reducing the signal flow in other directions. Directional antennas (sector, parabolic, flat), therefore provide maximum range.

Page 46: Antenna Installation
Antenna Installation 8.1 Safety Precautions Listed below are the safety precautions to be satisfied, prior to the outdoor antennas installation: • Outdoor antennas and antenna cables (good conductors of electricity) should be installed properly to avoid the transients or electrostatic discharges (that occur due to lightning during thunderstorm) from damaging your equipment and causing personal injury or death to the persons touching the exposed metal connectors of the equipment.
Page 47: Required Materials
Antenna Installation Connecting the Surge 7. Ensure that the cabling of ethernet / power cables and the surge arrestor is proper. See Arrestor and Ethernet / Power cables. 8. Ensure that the antennas are grounded properly to the grounding system, satisfying the local electrical code Grounding the Antennas.
Page 48: Determining The Optimal Antenna Placement

Page 49: Mounting The Antenna
Antenna Installation 8.2.3 Mounting the Antenna Mounting an antenna directly to the wall does not let you align the antenna properly with the corresponding antenna at the opposite end of your wireless link. Poor antenna alignment typically results in poor performance and therefore, we recommend mounting the antennas to a mast.
Page 50 Antenna Installation The antenna/devices located at different altitudes should be tilted at the correct angle to efficiently transmit/receive the signals between the devices in the wireless network. The following figure shows the antenna tilt and its importance when the successive devices are located at different elevations above the ground. Figure 8-2 Typical installation showing device/antenna tilt angle The radiation patterns for a device with Dual polarized antenna in Elevation planes are shown below in Figure 1-3.
Page 51 Antenna Installation – The antenna gain for 0 = 0 is shown in the following figure: Figure 8-4 Antenna gain at (30- 0) = 30 – Transmit Power = EIRP - G - MIMO Gain (30- 0) = 21 - 5 = 16 dBm •...

Antenna Installation 5. If required, adjust the direction of the antenna. 6. Tighten the nuts of the antenna to lock the antenna into its position. : Avoid over-tightening of the connector, nuts and screws that are used to mount the antenna, to protect the antenna and device from getting damaged.
Page 55: Grounding The System
Antenna Installation approved lightening surge protector near the device is recommended. To buy an additional Surge Protector (Part Number: 235-00001), place an order separately with your distributor. : The surge arrestor and the antenna mast must be connected to the same grounding system, by using the shortest cable possible, as prescribed by local electrical codes.

Page 60: Measuring Signal Performance
Measuring Signal Performance 9.1 Introduction The performance of a microwave link (wireless link established between two outdoor antennas) is closely related to the following factors: • Range • Fresnel Zone • Clearance Factor Calculating the above factors help you align the antennas properly and achieve a better throughput. 9.2 Determining the Range Range is the maximum distance a microwave link travels and is based on the: •...
Page 61: Fresnel Zone Calculation
Measuring Signal Performance • Marginal communications quality in late fall (with no leaves on the trees along the signal path) might fail in the summer (with leaves on the trees along the signal path). • In winter, a wireless link can fail when the antenna is exposed to ice buildup or when the antenna elements are covered with snow.
Page 62: Clearance Factor
Measuring Signal Performance The path difference is the required clearance of the antenna beam from obstacles in its path to avoid loss of radio signal. Signals reflected from any even-numbered Fresnel Zone result in signal cancellation while the odd-numbered Fresnel Zones add to the direct path signal.
Page 63: Calculations
Measuring Signal Performance Figure 9-3 Clearance Factor If the clearance for your antenna installation is equal to or better than the minimum clearance required, then the Clearance Factor for your installation is 100%. If your actual clearance is less than the minimum clearance, then refer the above figure to determine the actual range that applies to the current requirement.
Page 64 Measuring Signal Performance where: • is the output power (in dBm) of the transmitter. • is the total loss of all transmission elements between the antenna and the RF device on one side of the link (in dB). • is the gain of the antenna on one side of the link (in dB). •...
Page 65 Measuring Signal Performance Procedure 1. Start with the transmit power and the number of the channel to be used in dBm. Subtract the total loss of all transmission elements between the antenna and the radio on one side of the link (dB). 2.

Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) In countries like USA and Canada, radio can be installed with any directional antennas gain, as there is no Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) limit for the application of these systems for fixed point-to-point applications in the 5.8 GHz frequency...
