2. Introduction to the HES-319M
Comparison: HES-319M, BreezeMAX PRO 3000, BreezeMAX PRO 6000
Because WiMAX is a regulated standard, manufacturers must conform to a strict set of specifications. As a
result, all WiMAX CPEs are quite similar and familiarity with one helps you when starting up with another.
The following table compares the BreezeMAX PRO 3000, BreezeMAX PRO 6000, and HES-319M to provide a
starting point for those familiar with the BreezeMAX PRO CPEs and new to the HES-319M.

HES-319M Installation 8
HES-319M ODU
The HES-319M ODU incorporates:
A modem for communications with the IDU
Data processing and management software
A high–gain antenna
A radio transmitter/receiver for communications with the base station
The ODU interfaces are:
RJ–45 port (A):
oSupports a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet communications link to the IDU
oIs a Power over Ethernet, or PoE, connection: the power to the ODU is supplied from the IDU over this
link
oWeather–sealed with the sealing gland assembly (B)
Signal Strength LEDS (C):
oFive LEDs indicate the strength of the signal received from the base station.
Refer to the next topic, HES-319M ODU Signal Strength Indicators, for details.
oWeather–sealed with the LED cap (D)
Ground screw (E): Used to connect the ODU to an approved building ground point.
The ODU can be located:
Up to 18mi–30km from the base station
Up to 328ft–100m from the customer’s computing equipment

HES-319M Installation 9
HES-319M ODU Signal Strength Indicators
The HES-319M ODU has LEDs that indicate the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) of the signal from the
base station. You use the signal strength indicators when you align the ODU; details are provided in the
chapter, Aligning the HES-319M.
Signal Strength (RSSI)
Signal Strength LEDs
≥ –50dBm
–60dBm to –50dBm
–70dBm to –60dBm
–80dBm to –70dBm
–90dBm to –80dBm
≤ –90dBm

HES-319M Installation 10
HES-319M IDU
The HES-319M IDU is a Power over Ethernet, or PoE, adapter that is powered from the AC mains. It provides
the communications interface between your customer’s computing equipment and the ODU, and supplies
power to the ODU.
The PoE adapter has two ports and three LEDs:
RJ–45 port labelled "OUT" (A):
oSupports a 10/100 BaseT Power over
Ethernet link to the ODU
oSends control signals to and receives
status indications from the ODU
oSupplies power to the ODU (B)
Be very careful to connect
ONLY the ODU to the OUT
port. The power destined
for the ODU can destroy
customer equipment in
milliseconds.
RJ–45 port labelled "IN" (C):
oSupports a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet link to
the customer's computing equipment (D).
Generally, the equipment is a computer
but may also be a LAN device such as a
router.
“CONNECT” LED (E): On when the PoE adapter
is powered up and connected to the ODU
“FAULT” LED (F): On when a fault condition
occurs.
If the condition does not clear itself in 30
seconds, unplug the PoE adapter for 10
seconds.
“ON” LED (G): On when the PoE adapter is
powered up
Operating specifications are:
–40°C to 65°C
10% to 90% humidity (non–condensing)
100VAC to 240VAC +/–10%
15W

HES-319M Installation 11
Static IP Addresses
Static IP addresses are not supported on the HES-319M. If you are planning to install an HES-319M, be sure
your customer has not ordered a static IP address –before you leave for the site.

HES-319M Installation 12
Base Station Restrictions
The HES-319M operates in the 3,400MHz to 3,600MHz range and cannot be used with base stations that
operate above 3,600MHz. The WiMAX Base Station ID list available from the Xplornet University WiMAX
library shows the base stations that can communicate with the HES-319M.
If you are planning to install an HES-319M, verify that there is a compatible base station
within range of your customer’s site –before you leave for the site.

3. Mounting the HES-319M ODU
Instructions in this guide only cover the mounting of the ODU on a previously-
installed mounting platform.
Refer to the WiMAX Customer Premise Equipment Installation guide for:
The rules and regulations to follow when fastening equipment to a
customer’s premise
The instructions for installing a mounting platform.
Consider these points before proceeding:
The mounting kit shipped with the HES-319M is required to mount the ODU.
The mounting kit can be used with masts/poles whose diameter ranges in size from 1 to 2.5in–2.5 to
6.4cm.
You need the grounding kit (wire and screw) that was shipped with the HES-319M or equivalent.
To ensure weather–protection, mount the ODU so that the side with the RJ-45 port faces down.

HES-319M Installation 14
Referring to the illustration:
1. The pole mounting kit provides three mounting positions: parallel to the pole, or at +/–15° to the pole.
These instructions are for the parallel position.
1. Position the bracket so that the flange with +15° faces up.
2. Hold the bracket against the pole and feed the U-bolt through the bottom holes in the bracket.
If the -15° flange is up, feed the U-bolt through the top holes for a parallel mount.
3. Spin an M6 nut on each arm of the U-bolt.
4. Move the kit to the desired position on the pole and tighten the nuts.

HES-319M Installation 15
5. Align the flange holes with the threaded studs on the back of the ODU so that the side of the ODU with
the RJ-45 port faces down.
6. Slide the studs into the holes and spin M6 nuts on each bolt.
7. Tighten the nuts firmly but do not over-tighten.
8. Thread the screw provided with the grounding kit through one of the ring lugs on the ground wire and into
the threaded hole on the back of the ODU just below the ground symbol.
9. Tighten the screw.

HES-319M Installation 16
Other mounting options
Alternate mounting options are illustrated below. Note which flange is up (+15° or –15°) and which holes the
U-bolt goes through (upper or lower).

4. Installing Cables and Grounds for the HES-319M
The diagram illustrates the wiring plan for the HES-319M. The tasks you need to carry out to complete the wiring
plan are listed below. Detailed instructions for each task are provided in following topics.
In all topics, ‘cable’ is synonymous with Cat5e cable. In the diagrams, the Cat5e cable is shown as red for illustrative
purposes only.
Task List
1. Confirm that the mount location satisfies all requirements listed in the Location Requirements Checklist in
the WiMAX Customer Premise Equipment Installation guide.
2. Review the grounding standards.
3. Shave the RJ-45 connector boot.
4. Install a surge suppressor.

HES-319M Installation 18
5. Install a ground wire from the surge suppressor to an approved building ground point.
6. Install a Cat5e cable (with ground wire) between the surge suppressor and the ODU.
7. If you are using a J–arm platform, install a dual ground lug on the mast bracket.
If you are using a tripod or ground pole, install two ground straps on the pole, a hand's width apart.
8. Install a ground wire between the surge suppressor and the dual ground lug, or the lower ground strap.
9. Install a ground wire between the ground screw on the ODU and the dual ground lug, or the upper ground
strap.
10. Install a Cat5e cable between the surge suppressor and the IDU.
11. Install the supplied Ethernet cable between the IDU and your computer.
12. Plug in the IDU and power up your computer.
When all tasks are complete, you are ready to align the ODU.

HES-319M Installation 19
Approved and Unacceptable Building Ground Points
A list of approved and unacceptable ground points is repeated here because the importance of proper
grounding cannot be over–emphasized. Review the previous grounding topics for details.
Approved ground points are:
A building ground, also called an electrical service electrode.
Service equipment enclosures. Never drill into an electrical service panel.
A metal conduit or raceway of the electrical service.
A grounded interior metal water pipe.
An I–beam clamp on a grounded structural steel member.
Unacceptable ground points are:
Conduit on the load side of a building enclosure
A cut–off switch or a condensation pipe on a Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning, or HVAC, system
Steel roof trusses
Metal roofs, metal roof screws, metal screens, or metal windows
Vents or vent pipes
Electrical outlets or light fixtures
Gas pipes, gutters, exterior water faucets, unlicensed ground rods

HES-319M Installation 20
Shaving the RJ-45 Connector Boot on the Cat5e PoE Cable
The boot of the RJ-45 connector of Cat5e cables used for the PoE connection to the ODU may not fit through
the sealing gland assembly.
1. Test to see if the cable can pass through the sealing gland assembly.
Peel back the integrated ground wire before testing.
2. If the cable cannot pass through, shave the corners of the boot. Be careful not to break the connector tab
or shave the connector.
It is much easier to shave the connector when the connector is warm, for example at
room temperature rather than at winter temperatures.
