Figure 1-7: Example of Link Architecture - System Components The Outdoor Unit (ODU) The ODU is the radio transceiver of the FA4800 system and is the main component of the sys- tem. The ODU connects to an antenna that enables radio communication and can be mounted on a pole or wall.
This ODU has an integrated 370mm (1.2ft) flat panel antenna. The ODU contains both the radio and the antenna as a single unit housed in a weatherproof case. • Connectorized ODU This ODU has one N-type connector for connecting an external antenna. There are five series of FA4800 ODU’s: • FA4800 Access •...

The IDU also provides power to the ODU. The following models are available for FA4800: New style IDU-E for both FA4800 and FibeAir 2000 The new style IDU-E is a carrier grade, compact, half 19 inch wide, 1U plastic unit, providing up to two Ethernet ports and up to two E1/T1 interfaces.
DC converter is available for powering the IDU-C from an AC source. The IDU-C is designed to be rack mounted. Four IDU-C products are supported by FA4800, with 16, 8, 4 or no TDM ports. FA4800 uses the first four TDM ports, only. Figure 1-13: IDU-C, Ethernet only, front panel Figure 1-14: IDU-C, 4 E1/T1 ports, front panel You can use an IDU-C with 4, 8 or 16 ports.

RF power, is radiated to its surroundings and vice versa. The antenna gain and transmitting power may be limited by country regulations. The FA4800 may be operated with an integrated antenna that is part of the ODU unit, or with external antennas connected to the ODU via N-type connectors. All cables and connections must be connected correctly to reduce RF losses.
Grid antennas are used for 2.4 GHz applications. Due to the large size, the grid design minimizes weight and wind loading. Figure 1-22: External antennas - Grid Antenna See the Ceragon products catalog for Ceragon offering of external antennas. External anten- nas are also available from antenna vendors. FibeAir2000 Manager The FibeAir2000 Manager is an SNMP-based management application which manages a com- plete link over a single IP address.

When several units are collocated at a common hub site, interference may occur from one unit to another. Ceragon ODU units support the collocation of more than two units at a central site. Like any other RF deployment, the wireless operation is highly dependent on factors such as available frequencies, the physical spacing between radios, other interfering radios, and whether FA4800 or FibeAir 2000 units are installed.
The other collocated radios in the site - the HSS Clients, are connected to the HSS Master and synchronize their transmission to the pulses. An HSS Client can be configured to work in one of two modes: FA4800 User Manual Release 1.9.40 10-2...

Installation Procedure What is a Ceragon Monitored Hot Standby The Ceragon Monitored Hot Standby (MHS a.k.a 1+1) is a duplicated link set up as a primary link and a secondary link in hot standby mode as shown in Figure 12-1 below.
The primary IDU and the secondary IDU are connected by a cable to monitor failure and to control protection switching. Switching time is less than 50ms. When connecting two FA4800 links as 1+1, one dual-polarization antenna can be shared by the primary link and the secondary link.
Purpose of this Chapter Chapter 12 Purpose of this Chapter This chapter is an installation and maintenance guide for Ceragon MHS. It applies to all Cer- agon radio products able to support the Monitored Hot Standby operational mode. Who Should Read this This chapter is intended for persons responsible for the installation and maintenance of Cer- agon MHS.
Installing a Ceragon MHS Chapter 12 Figure 12-3: How to connect the IDUs to the Patch Panel • With FibeAir 2000 links you can protect up to 16 TDM ports. To pro- tect more than eight TDM ports use two Patch Panels at each site.
Installing a Ceragon MHS Chapter 12 6. Connect the MHS cables at Sites A and B as shown in Figure 12-1 Figure 12- above. 7. Run the Configuration Wizard for Primary Link. Activate TDM services in the usual way. Navigate to the Hot Standby tab, in the Services Configuration panel: Figure 12-4: Services Configuration Panel: Hot Standby mode selection Check the Primary button to configure Primary Link as the primary link.
Installing a Ceragon MHS Chapter 12 Figure 12-6: The secondary link under normal operation To see what happens following a cut-over from the primary link to the secondary link, you need to have running two copies of the FibeAir2000 Manager – one logged into the primary link, and one logged into the secondary link.

The ODUs are either supplied from the factory ready for use at 5.4 GHz or 5.3 GHz FCC/IC or alternatively, they can be set up for these bands using the FibeAir2000 Manager. The following procedure is generic to all relevant Ceragon radio products. What you see on your running FibeAir2000 Manager may differ in some details from the screen captures used to illustrate this chapter.

Grounding for Indoor/Outdoor Units ODU Grounding Ceragon Lightning Protection System uses a Shielded CAT-5e cable to interconnect the Out- door (ODU) and Indoor (IDU) units. However, this shielding does not provide a good lightning discharge path, since it can not tol- erate the high Lightning Current surges.
The device should be permanently connected to ground. External Lightning Surge Suppressors and Grounding A Grounding Kit and Surge Arrestor Unit must be located near the ODU and properly grounded as illustrated in Figures 18-2 18-3 below: FA4800 User Manual Release 1.9.40 18-3...

Link Budget Calculator Overview The Link Budget Calculator is a utility for calculating the expected performance of the FA4800 wireless link and the possible configurations for a specific link range. The utility allows you to calculate the expected RSS of the link, and find the type of services and their effective throughput as a function of the link range and deployment conditions.
The Service Availability calculation is based on the Vigants Barnett method which predicts the downtime probability based on a climate factor (C factor).

The Fresnel zone (pronounced "frA-nel", with a silent “s”) is an elliptically shaped conical zone of electromagnetic energy that propagates from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna. It is always widest in the middle of the path between the two antennas. FA4800 User Manual Release 1.9.40 21-3...
The top of the obstruction does not extend far into the Fresnel zone, leaving 60% of the Fresnel zone clear; therefore, the signal is not significantly attenuated. For more about Fresnel zone, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_zone. FA4800 User Manual Release 1.9.40 21-4...

The simplest way to do this is to place the link in Installation mode but without changing any configured parameters. Quick Install Mode is a “one click” method for doing this. The method is completely generic, working identically for both FA4800 and FibeAir 2000 products.

You may choose which of the two links is the main link and which is the backup link. It may be configured in cascaded links for multi-hop. The latter situ- ation arises where the trunk to be backed up is longer than the range of FA4800. Figure 24-1below shows a simple cascaded link with two hops.
To backup a single hop, leave Cascaded Link unchecked. In a cascaded situation, check it and then chose the Line / Repeater combination that reflects your setup. You should repeat this procedure for the second link, making sure that your definition of Line / Repeater IDU-Rs is consistent. FA4800 User Manual Release 1.9.40 24-2...
Chapter 25 BRS Installation Procedure BRS Link Activation In accordance with 2.5 GHz standard, FA4800-BRS links must be activated before use. This is done at both ODUs independently before installation on site. Both ODUs must be configured identically. To Activate a BRS Link: 1.
