Equipment supplied to the USA can ONLY be set to operate with a Country Code which is
fully compatible with FCC Rules.
Using frequency planning
Networks will benefit from the use of fixed channel allocations if (a) the network consists
of multiple PTP links, and (b) RF interference predominantly arises from equipment in the
same network.
Frequency planning is the exercise of assigning operating channels to PTP units so as to
minimize RF interference between links. Frequency planning must consider interference
from any PTP unit to any other PTP unit in the network. Low levels of interference
normally allow for stable operation and high link capacity.
The frequency planning task is made more straightforward by use of the following
techniques:
Using several different channels
Separating units located on the same mast
Using high performance (directional) external antennas
For help with planning networks, refer to Chapter 2: Planning considerations,
