POE sources RADWIN POE units (POE power supplies) are available for any standard type of power feed (AC or DC), for indoor or outdoor installation scenarios. RADWIN IDU series POE switches are also available. See Appendix A for more details.
POE Cable POE feed for RADWIN ODUs must be connected using an outdoor rated CAT-5e STP cable, 24 AWG, terminated with shielded RJ-45 connectors. RADWIN ODU-IDU cables in various lengths are available for purchase (see WINPro catalog). These cables are shipped ready for installation with an IP-67 protective gland pre-installed on one end of the cable for connection to the ODU, and with RJ-45 male shielded connectors on both ends.
External Antennas Various RADWIN sector and directional antennas are available for connectorized base station and subscriber radios. All RADWIN antennas are supplied with mounting kit and 2x low attenuation 1.2 meter RF cables (LMR-400) with N-type connectors at both ends.
Lightning Protector Units (LPU) RADWIN LPU are robust outdoor units designed to be installed on a pole or on a wall at each end of the ODU-IDU cable. It has two ports with protective glands for CAT-5e cables and a grounding lug. Each LPU is supplied with a 0.5m CAT5e cable and a stainless-steel pole mounting band.

B.2.1 About Single and Dual Antennas Each RADWIN radio is actually made of two radio transceivers (radios). The radios make use of algorithms that utilize both Spatial Multiplexing (also called MIMO) and Diversity resulting in enhanced capacity, range and link availability. The number of antennas (i.e. radios) used is determined by user configuration and by automatic system decisions, explained below.
