Networking Information

The PTP 600 Series Bridge operates as a transparent Ethernet bridge. Each unit requires an
IP address. This IP address is for management purposes only and it plays no part in the
operation of the system. IP addresses are assigned during initial configuration as described in
section 7.2 "Installation Procedure".

Lightning Protection

The amount of lightning protection is dependent on regulatory requirements and the end user
requirements. The standard ODU for the PTP 600 Series Bridge is fitted with surge limiting
circuits and other features to minimize the risk of damage due to nearby lightning strikes.
These standard features may require some additional equipment to be configured as part of
the system installation to be fully effective. Motorola recommends the use of screened cable
and a surge arrestor to protect connected equipment from nearby strikes.
Note: The PTP 600 Series Bridge is not designed to survive direct lightning strikes. For this
reason the unit should not be installed as the highest point in a localized area, unless specific
precautions are taken. See section 11 "Lightning Protection".

Electrical Requirements

The PTP 600 Series Bridge is supplied with a variable input voltage (100-240V, 47-63Hz AC)
inline power supply unit which is incorporated into the Power Indoor Unit (PIDU Plus). The
PTP 600 Series Bridge requires one mains supply outlet at each end of the link.
