When using separate antennas to achieve spatial diversity, one should be mounted with
Horizontal polarization and the other with Vertical polarization.
The following steps should be followed:
Step 1:
Mount the Antennas
Step 2:
Mount the connectorized version of the PTP 600 Series Bridge unit
Step 3:
Route and make off the ends of the Antenna cables
Step 4:
Connect the antenna cables at the antennas
Step 5:
Connect one of the antenna cables at the Connectorized version of the 600
Series bridge unit.
Step 6:
Connect the Connectorized 600 Series bridge ODU to PIDU Plus cable and
configure the unit as described in section 7.7.
Step 7:
Align the connected antenna using the tones as described in section 7.7.11.
Step 8:
Connect the other antenna to the Connectorized 600 Series bridge.
Step 9:
Disconnect the cable to the already aligned antenna.
Step 10:
Align the second antenna using the tones as described in section 7.7.11.
Step 11:
Re-connect the second antenna to the Connectorized 600 Series bridge (Note:
you will notice the tone pitch increase as you re-connect the second antenna due
to the additional received signal).
Step 12:
Use the relevant status web pages to check that you are getting the results you
expect from your link planning.
Step 13:
Complete the installation as detailed below.
