System Overview
CrossFire M2 (Mid Power Remote Unit 2nd Generation) system is a distributed antenna system (DAS). It consists of
Access Unit (A2), Expansion Unit (E2-O), and Remote Unit (M2). The Expansion Unit is an optional unit that can expand
the system capacity.
System Connection
A typical CrossFire M2 system connection is shown in Figure 4.

Operation and Maintenance Terminal
The Operations and Maintenance Terminal (OMT) software runs on all devices in the CrossFire system. WebOMT is the
interface for OMT. WebOMT is based on a web browser and is compatible with most common browsers such as IE and
Google Chrome. WebOMT is customized for CrossFire to query, debug, and configure parameters on devices.
The Master A2 is generally set as the Host of the system. Meanwhile, technicians can access the whole system through
the WebOMT of any device (Master or Slave A2, E2-O and M2RU) connected in the system.
Access to the OMT on the Master A2
In the CrossFire system, the Master A2 is defined as Host. The default IP address of the A2 is https://10.7.3.200.
To set up wired access to the OMT:
1. Connect a PC to the Master A2 with a network cable in the CONSOLE port on the front panel.
2. Change the TCP/IP properties (see Figure 5):
a. Click Network Connections
b. Click Local Area Connection Properties
c. Click TCP/IP Properties
d. Change parameters as indicated:
IP address: 10.7.3.1 (the last number is changeable except for 10.7.3.200)
Subnet mask: 255.0.0.0
Default Gateway: 10.7.3.200 (IP address of Master A2)
3. Check the status of the Local Area Connection and confirm the connection.
4. Open a browser window and enter the default gateway in the navigation bar to access the WebOMT page. Figure 6
shows an example using https://10.7.3.200 as the default gateway.

Access to the OMT on the Slave Devices
In the CrossFire system, E2s and M2RU as well as the Slave A2s, are defined as Slaves. They have no fixed IP address. The IP
addresses are assigned by the host automatically, based on the network topology.
To set up wired access to the OMT:
1. Connect a PC to the slave device with a network cable in the CONSOLE port on the front panel.
2. Change the TCP/IP properties:
a. Enable Obtain an IP address automatically by clicking the check box.
b. Enable Obtain DNS server address automatically by clicking the check box.
3. Check the status of the Local Area Connection and confirm the connection.
4. Open a browser window and enter the default gateway in the navigation bar to access the WebOMT page. The default fixed IP
address is https://12.7.1.1 as the default gateway.

Homepage and Basic Functions
Figure 11. WebOMT Homepage
The OMT homepage includes System Topo, tabs, and fields (refer to corresponding numbers in Figure 11):
1. Device Info: After clicking to select the element’s icon in DAS Topo, it shows Element Type, Element ID, Internal IP
address, Location and status
2. Jump Button: After clicking to select the element’s icon in DAS Topo, click Jump Button to switch to the element’s
OMT in the new tab.
Note: A common issue is that internet browsers cannot transfer to other devices from current OMT when your laptop is
multi-connected to device and wireless network at the same time. Use Port Jump to skip this issue.
3. Icon Explanation: Shows that device icons in the topology have 3 colors to display different statuses.
4. Element Configuration: Tabs that access the page for parameter configuration and query.
5. Logs: Records the operating status of the devices. The logs can be downloaded and deleted on the Logs page.
6. Upgrade: Used to upgrade the software.
7. Configuration: Used to save and load factory or engineering configuration.
8. ScreenShot: One step to download all current parameters, information, and device operating status. When
Sunwave assistance is required to troubleshoot the system, it will be helpful to send the ScreenShot files(.json) to
Sunwave technicians.
9. User: Account management and logout
10. Remove Slave: used to remove all slave devices in Topo.
11. Refresh: refresh DAS Topo

System Topology
System Topology is set as the default homepage of OMT. Using the following steps to display the System Topology:
1. Select the DAS Topo tab.
2. Click Refresh to display Topology.
The system topology is shown in Figure 12. The Master A2 icon is on the left of the frame as host. Lower level elements
are placed as a tree structure based on the physical optical connections. Except for the Master A2, all other slaves are
named after the optical port they are connected to.
Figure 12. Displaying the System Topology
Device icons in the topology have 3 colors —green, Grey and red:
Green icon with green box line: indicates this element is connected and online without alarm.
Grey icon with grey box line: indicates this element was once connected but is currently disconnected.
Red icon with red box line: indicates this element has an alarm.
The device icons with purple box line indicates which element’s OMT user is logged in.
When a grey icon shows up, check whether this device exists or not. If the device does not exist anymore, delete the
device in the DAS Topo page.
Note: deleting one device or all slave devices must be under Factory Mode. Access Factory Mode through Maintenance
-> Factory Command -> Factory Mode. Enable the mode and click Set to validate it.
