Thank you for choosing the PTP 550 wireless backhaul solution. Before you begin installing the device,
please verify that you have all package contents available, and an accessing device (for example, a
personal computer) for configuring the PTP 550.
Intended use
The Cambium Networks PTP 550 radio products supports data transmission over Point to Point (PTP)
microwave links. This radio equipment is intended for professional applications for fixed outdoor
installations only. These radios (referred to as ‘outdoor units’ or ODUs) are available with an integrated
antenna or as a ‘connectorized’ unit for connection to an external antenna.
Connectorized units can operate with a selection of separately-purchased single and dual-polarity
external antennas through 2 x N-type female connectors. The installer is responsible to operate the
radio equipment and the accessories as intended and according to the description provided by the
antenna manufacturer. The maximum antenna gain allowed for external antennas is 40 dBi.
Installation & Operation
Installation and operation of this product is complex, and Cambium therefore recommends professional
installation and management of the system to ensure that operation complies with the regulations of
the region where the product is installed. Please follow the instructions in this leaflet. Further guidance
on PTP installation and operation is available in the product user guide, see link below.
The installer must have sufficient skills, knowledge and experience to perform the installation task and is
responsible for:
•Familiarity with current applicable national regulations including radio regulations, electrical
installation regulations, surge protection regulations and ‘working at heights’ regulations
•Installation in accordance with Cambium Networks instructions
•Confirming that the equipment settings are compliant with national or regional regulations
Please observe the following important instructions during installation. This will set the equipment in
compliance with national regulatory regulations.
•Ensure that the PTP 550 equipment is fitted with the latest firmware version (System Release 4.1.X
or later). The software is available from the Cambium Support Centre web site, see link below.
•During equipment set-up, verify that the correct region code is set (the region code is pre-set in the
factory for EU products) and then select the correct country code for the particular country where
the product is being deployed.
•For connectorized units, enter the antenna gain into the ‘Antenna Gain’ setting under the
‘Configuration > Radio’ menu.
Product Safety information
Observe the following safety rules:
•Ensure that the Outdoor Unit (ODU) and the structure to which it is mounted is capable of
withstanding the maximum wind speeds at a proposed site.
•Always power down and unplug the equipment before servicing. The PTP 550 power supply is the
primary disconnect device.
•Strong radio frequency (RF) fields will be present close to the antenna when the transmitter is on.
Always turn off the power to the PTP 550 device before undertaking maintenance activities in front
of the antenna.
oObserve the minimum safe distance limit for PTP 550 products provided below.

PTP 550 QUICK START GUIDE
PAGE 6
oEnsure that equipment is installed in a position avoiding any radiation hazard to
humans.
•Exercise extreme care when working at heights. Observe national ‘working at heights’ regulations.
Use trained ‘competent’ staff.
•Exercise extreme care when working near power lines.
•PTP 550 devices and mounting structures must be properly grounded to protect against lightning. It
is the user’s responsibility to install the equipment in accordance with national regulations. It is
recommended that installation be contracted to a professional installer.
•Always use the specified PTP 550 platform power supply units (PSU) to power the equipment.
Failure to use the specified Cambium supplied PoE could result in equipment damage and may
cause a safety hazard.
•Structures, equipment and people must be protected against electrostatic discharge:
oby siting equipment in a lightning protection zone
oby installation of appropriate lightning conductors to conduct the surge current to
ground via a separate preferential solid path.
•The ODU enclosure may be hot to the touch when in operation.
•Safety may be compromised if outdoor rated cables are not used for connections that will be
exposed to the outdoor environment. Install Cambium recommended cables.

Power Supply Unit (PSU) description
The PSU is an indoor unit that is connected to the ODU and network terminating equipment using Cat5e
cable with RJ45 connectors. It is also plugged into an AC power supply so that it can inject Power over
Ethernet (POE) into the ODU.

Warning Always use an appropriately rated and approved AC supply cord-set in
accordance with the regulations of the country of use.
Attention The PSU ODU ports are designed to connect only to PTP 550 ODUs. Do not
connect any other equipment, as damage may occur.
Do not connect the PIDU Plus PTP 300/500/600 Series to the PTP 550 ODU.
Order PSUs and (for AC power) line cords from Cambium Networks.
