AdminBrowser OA&M software runs on the Fusion Wideband Main Hub microprocessor and
communicates to its downstream Expansion Hubs and associated RAUs. Using AdminBrowser,
you can perform the following from any standard web browser (such as Internet Explorer)
running on your PC/laptop system:
• configure a newly installed system
• change system parameters
• perform an end-to-end system test
• query system status.
Refer to the AdminBrowser User
Manual (D-620607-0-20) for information about installing and
using the AdminBrowser software.
System Monitoring and Reporting
Each Fusion Wideband Main Hub in the system constantly monitors itself, its Expansion Hubs,
and their downstream RAUs for internal fault and warning conditions. The results of this
monitoring are stored in memory and compared against new results.
When a Main or Expansion Hub detects a change in status, it reports a
f
ault or warning alarm.
Faults are also indicated locally by red STATUS LEDs. Both faults and warnings are reported to
the AdminBrowser software and displayed on a PC/laptop connected to the Main Hub’s RJ-45
port. Passive antennas connected to the RAUs are not monitored automatically (perform a System
Test to retrieve status information about antennas).
Using AdminBrowser, you can install a ne
w system or new components, change system
parameters, and query system status. Figure 4 illustrates how the system reports its status to
AdminBrowser.

systems running
AdminBrowser.
If a fault or warning
condition is reported,
the AdminBrowser
graphical user interface
indicates the problem
on your standard PC
browser.
The Main Hub queries status
of each Expansion Hub and
each RAU and compares it
to previously stored
status.
If a fault is detected,
LEDs on the front panel turn
red.
The Expansion Hub queries
the status of each RAU and
compares it to the previously
stored status.
If a fault is detected, LEDs
on the front panel turn red.
Each RAU passes its status to
the Hub.
If a fault is detected, the
Alarm LED is red. If no
fault is detected, the LED
is green.
