Radio Site Planning

Proper site selection and planning before installing your MicroMAX will ensure a successful

deployment of your AS.MAX system. A summary of the main site planning considerations is

provided below:

Minimum obstructions (e.g. buildings) in the radio path between base station and the

subscriber terminals

Mount radio as high as possible to avoid obstructions in the wireless path

Check possibility of future obstructions such as plans to erect buildings and trees that may

grow tall enough to obstruct the wireless path

Align radio for maximizing received signal strength (RSS)

Consider nearby sources of interference that could degrade performance of radio

Mount radio as far from sources of interference as possible

Ensure base station and subscriber terminals (i.e ProST/EasyST) are within maximum

coverage range of reception

Maximum standard CAT-5e cable length connecting the MicroMAX to the indoor SDA-4S or

BSDU is 100 meters

Ensure that you have sufficient wiring conduit and cable ties to channel and protect the CAT

5e cable connecting the outdoor MicroMAX to the indoor SDA-4S

Radio Antenna Alignment

ProST

Once the subscriber unit (i.e. ProST) is installed and aimed in the general direction of the

BSR, it is recommended to measure the received signal strength (RSS) to determine the

signal strength received from the BSR, and to precisely align the ProST for maximum signal

strength.

You need to orientate (up/down, left/right) the ProST until the maximum RSSI levels are

achieved, and then secure the ProST.

EasyST

Once the subscriber unit (i.e. EasyST) is installed and aimed in the general direction of the

BSR, simply move the EasyST to the position that gives optimal reception.
