1. Introducon
1.1 Scope of This Document
This document shows how to install RADWIN 5000 radios.
For a detailed descripon of how to congure RADWIN 5000 radios and sectors, see the RADWIN 5000
Conguraon Guides / User manuals.
1.2 RADWIN 5000 Overview
1.2.1 Sector
The RADWIN 5000 system consists of a “sector” that includes a base staon, and at least one subscriber
unit. The subscriber units are installed and work opposite the base staons.
Figure 1: A RADWIN 5000 Sector
1.2.2 Base Station
There are several types of base staons, all of which are High‐Capacity Base Staons (HBS):

1.2.4 External Antennas
RADWIN radios come with integrated or external antennas. RADWIN oers many kinds of external
antennas. Any external antenna (either provided by RADWIN or any 3rd party) is compable to any RADWIN
radio with external antenna connectors.
1.2.5 Method of Work
Both the base staons and the subscriber units communicate respecvely, with the service provider and
users. The communicaon protocol for both the service provider and the users is Ethernet. See Figure 18:
RADWIN 5000 General Connecon Scheme.
•A PoE device is connected to power and the communicaons network:
▪On the base staon side, the PoE is connected to the backhaul network.
▪On the subscriber unit side, the PoE is connected to end‐user equipment: routers, WiFi devices, etc.
•The radio units and PoE devices are also connected to ground.
•The Base Staon communicates with the Subscriber Unit or Units via the air interface.
These models shall be located in a Restricted Access Locaon and be accessible
only to a skilled person familiar with the unit construcon and possible hazards.
Check the voltage on the antenna connector before access. Possibility of
hazardous voltage 56VDC appearance exists on accessible antenna connecons.
Use Personal Protecon Equipment (e.g. insulang gloves) when working with
the units or antennas.
Connect the shield of antenna coaxial cable to protecve earth when a coaxial
cable is used.

RADWIN 5000 Installaon Guide
August 2023

Use CAT‐5e cables for ethernet connecons.
For simplicity, Lightning Protecon Units (LPU) are not shown in Figure 18, but
these are recommended. See Mounng the Lightning Protecon Units on page 53
for direcons on how to install the LPUs.
Also for simplicity, external antennas are not shown.
Figure 18: RADWIN 5000 General Connecon Scheme
1.2.6 Worldwide single PN products
Some RADWIN products include a word‐wide single part number.
These products include a built‐in GPS/GNSS receiver. The radios idenfy their locaon from GNSS, and
determine the country in which they are located and the regulaon that applies in that country.
Subsequently, a single PN is available for each HW version of the radio, without needing to create mulple

RADWIN 5000 Installaon Guide
August 2023
12
PNs (dedicated PN for each regulaon). The same radio device can be transferred from one regulaon zone
to another.
In cases where the operator is permied by his local regulatory authority to operate in addional bands not
specied by the regulaon in his country, a licensing mechanism is available to enable opening addional
bands for use in the radio device.
In cases where the installaon / setup process is performed without GNSS recepon, the installer is allowed
to manually select the country in which the radio is located. When GNSS x is obtained by the radio, the
radio will automacally set the country and regulaon to the one detected by GNSS. If the installer
manually selected a regulaon band that is not supported in the current country, the link will be stopped
and the installer will have to select an allowed band.
1.3 Management Tools
1.3.1 Web Interface
A Web Interface is available for SU PRO/AIR EMB, SU Integrated, DUO, NEO DUO, JET‐AIR/ JET‐PRO, JET‐AIR
DUO, JET DUO, SU Connectorized, and MulSector units. The Web Interface is integrated with the radio
unit, and, unlike the RADWIN Manager, requires no external applicaon. You merely enter the unit’s IP
address, user name and password, and log in.
If the hardware version of the base staon is of the format x.y, where x and y are
numerals, the base staon is managed via the RADWIN Manager.
If the hardware version of the base staon is of the format xxxJ, where x is a
numeral, the base staon is managed via the WebUI.
1.3.2 RADWIN Manager
The RADWIN Manager is an SNMP‐based management applicaon, operang on your local computer, which
manages a complete sector over a single IP address. Install the RADWIN Manager from
hp:/www.radwin.com/download.
1.3.3 WINTouch
WINTouch is a mobile applicaon that guides you in installing and aligning SU PRO/AIR EMB, SU Integrated,
and SU Connectorized subscriber units.

Cauon: Risk of damage to equipment or of service degradaon
Warning: Risk of danger to persons operang near the equipment
1.6 Miscellaneous Cauons and Warnings
All units shall be located in a restricted access locaon and be accessible only to a
skilled person familiar with the unit construcon and possible hazards.
When working with the SU Connectorized unit ‐
Possibility of hazardous voltage 56VDC appearance exists on accessible antenna
connecons. Use Personal Protecon Equipment (e.g. insulang gloves) when
working with the unit or the antenna.
Connect the shield of antenna coaxial cable to protecve earth when coaxial
cable is used.
