1.2Terminology
•Inthefield,alinktypicallyhasalocalorheadquarterssite.Typically,aserviceprovider
isthelocalorheadquarterssite.Theservicerecipientistheremotesite.
Wherethelinkiscompletelyinternaltoacorporation,thechoiceofthelocaland
remoteisjustamatterofconvenience.
Warning
AWarningisanotificationofriskofdangertopersonsoperatingnearthe
equipment
Caution
ACautionisanotificationofriskofdamagetoequipmentorofservice
degradation
Note
ThepurposeofaNoteisto
•Drawyourattentiontosomethingthatmaynotbeobviousorcounter‐
intuitive

CustomerSupport Chapter1
Alinkthen,consistsoftwosites.
•InBroadbandWirelessterminology,thelocalandremotesitesaresometimesreferred
toas“near”and“far”,“HQ”and“remote”andsoon.
TheRADWIN2000D+classradiosachievetheir700Mbpsthroughputbydrawingon
newtechnologydevelopedfortheRADWIN5000PointtoMultipointseries.Therefore
thesitesarenotsymmetrical.Thelocalsitereferredtoearlier,usesabasestationradio
asthelinkMasterODUandtheremotesiteusesasubscriberunitasthelinkSlaveODU.
TheMasterODUradioislabelledRT‐A(HBS)andtheSlaveODUlabelledRT‐B(HSU).RT
standsforRadioTerminal.
TheRT‐A(HBS)/RT‐B(HSU)andmaster/slaveterminologywillbeusedthroughoutthe
manualbothtodescribethetwolinksiteswithoutfurthercomment.
ThelinkisnormallyconfiguredandmanagedusingaPC,themanagingcomputer
connectedtotheMasterODU.(Thepreciserequirementsforthemanagingcomputer
aresetoutinMinimumSystemRequirements).ItmayalsobeconnectedtotheSlave
ODUeitherdirectlyorover‐the‐air.
Wewilloccasionallyneedtodistinguishbetweenthesitetowhichthemanaging
computerisconnected,andthesecondsite,whentheyarenotspecificallyRT‐A(HBS)or
RT‐B(HSU).Theformerwillbecalledthemanagingsiteandthelatter,theover‐the‐air
site.Whichiswhich,isalwaysdeterminedbythelocationofthemanagingcomputer.
• DownlinktrafficisdatatransferfromanRT‐A(HBS)toanRT‐B(HSU).
•UplinktrafficisdatatransferfromanRT‐B(HSU)toanRT‐A(HBS).
•RADWIN2000D+supportsthreeconnectionmethodsforthemanagingcomputer:

Chapter3:SiteSurvey
3.1PlanningtheLinkSite
3.1.1Overview
Linksiteplanningconsistsofasetofsurveys,whichmustbecarriedoutbeforeany
equipmentisbroughttothesite.Ifforsomereason,theoutcomeofanyofthesesurveysis
negative,sitere‐locationwillneedtobeconsidered.
ASiteSurveyconsistsofthreestages:
1. Preliminarysurvey‐Theproposedlinkisanalyzedintheofficeusingatopographicmap.
2. Physicalsurvey‐Thelocationsoftheindoorandoutdoorequipmentaredeterminedon‐
site.
3. RadioFrequency(RF)survey‐Itisrecommendedthattheinstallationareabescanned
withaspectrumanalyzer,toidentifyRFinterferencesoastodetermineaclearchannelfor
radioinstallation(on‐site).
3.2TheSiteSurvey
3.2.1Introduction
RADWINwirelesslinksmustbeplannedbeforeinstallation.Thedesignatedinstallationsite
mustbeappraisedtodeterminethatthewirelesssystemisabletooperateefficientlyand
provideconnectivitywithoutsignaldegradation.
RADWIN2000D+offersawideoperatingfrequencyrange.Afreefrequencychannelmustbe
determinedwithintheoperatingrange,foroptimumperformance.
3.2.2RecommendedEquipment
Stage1:PreliminarySurvey
•Topologicalmapofthearea
•Urbanmapofthearea

RADWIN2000D+UserManual Release3.6.00 3‐2
Stage1:PreliminarySurvey Chapter3
•Compass
Stage2:PhysicalSurvey
•100metertapemeasure
•Ohmmeter,tocheckgroundconnection
•Binoculars
•Map
•Digitalcamera
•Paper,pencil,andaclipboard
•GPSdevice(optional)
•Compass(optional)
Stage3:RFSurvey
•SpectrumAnalyzerwithMaxHoldfunctionandscreencapturefacilitythatcanstore
multipleimages,fordocumentationpurposes
•RFaccessories(connectorsandcables)
•Communicationdevices(forexample,cellularphones,orasetofwalkie‐talkies)
3.3Stage1:PreliminarySurvey
Apreliminarysurveyisnecessarybeforevisitingpotentialinstallationsites.Asmuchdetailas
possibleshouldbeobtainedaboutthetwodesignatedODUinstallationsitesandthearea
betweenthem.
Toperformapreliminarysurvey:
1.Markthetwodesignatedinstallationsitesonatopographicmapofthearea.
2.Measurethedistancebetweenthesites;checkthatitiswithinthespecifiedrangeof
theequipment.
3.Ontheurbanmap,checkfordevelopedareassituatedbetweenthetwoinstallation
sites.Payattentiontotheseareaswhenperformingthephysicalsitesurvey;there
maybetallbuildings,RFtowers,ortransmitters,whichcouldcauseinterferenceto
thelink.
4.Checktheareabetweenthetwositesforobstructionssuchas:
•Highground‐hillsormountains
•Lakesorlargebodiesofwater.WaterhasareflectioneffectonRFsignalslikeabuilding.
Thistypeofreflectioncausesthereceivedamplitudetobereduced.Asaruleofthumb,
thepresenceofalargebodyofwaterbetweenthelinksitesmaydoubletherequired
antennaheight.
5.DetermineandrecordthecompassbearingsbetweenbothODUs,relativetonorth.
6.Ifthereareobstructionsbetweenthetwosites,calculatetheFresnelZone(seeLink
BudgetCalculatorfordetails).
7.Ifthesitechosendoesnotmeetrequirements,consideralternativesites.

RADWIN2000D+UserManual Release3.6.00 3‐3
Stage2:PhysicalSurvey Chapter3
8.UsetheLinkBudgetCalculator(ontheCDsuppliedwiththeequipmentorusingthe
RADWINManager)todeterminetheexpectedperformance.
3.4Stage2:PhysicalSurvey
Thephysicalsitesurveyreviewstheenvironmentoftheproposedinstallationlocation,to
ensurethatthelinksitesaresuitableforthewirelessnetwork.Theresultsofthephysicalsite
surveyshouldberecorded.
Toperformaphysicalsurvey:
1.Fromthecompassreadingstakeninthepreliminarysurvey,findtheazimuth(hori‐
zontalposition)thattheODUshouldfacetowardsthesecondODU.
2.Usingbinoculars,locateanyobstructionssuchastalltrees,highbuildings,hillsor
mountains.LookforotherRFtowersbetweenthetwosites.Markthelocationsof
theobstructionsonthemap.
3.DeterminethelocationfortheODU(havingregardforexistingrooftopinstallations
andtowerspace).Itshouldbeaboveanyobstructions,consideringtheFresnelzone
(seeLinkBudgetCalculator).
4.IfyouneedtoinstalltheODUonatower,makesurethatthetowerisfarawayfrom
overheadelectricpowerlines.
5.Determinealocationfortheindoorequipment;itshouldbeascloseaspossibleto
theODU.Atanexistingsite,thereisprobablyanequipmentroomwithcable‐routing
channels.
6.MeasureandrecordthepathlengthofthecablefromtheODUpositiontotheindoor
equipmentroom.
7.Determinethegroundandlightningconnectionpointsoftheinstallation.TheODU
andIDUmustbothbegrounded.
8.UsingtheOhmmeter,measureandrecordtheresistanceoftherequiredinstallation
tothegroundingpoint.Theresistancemustbelessthan1Oohm.
9.Reviewtheresultsofthephysicalsitesurvey.Decideifthesiteissuitableforthe
wirelessnetworkinstallation.
•Ifthesiteissuitable,continuewithstage3,theRFsurvey
Note
Itisadvisabletogoonaclearday,soyoucanmoreeasilyseeany
obstructionsbetweenthetwosites.
Note
TheIDU‐ODUcablelengthlimitis100m,inaccordancewith10/100BaseT
interface.
