•Bandwidth
• Mode (modulation)
The setting of the above parameters determines the Ethernet throughput.
Use a professional link planning tool to determine optimum settings for the above parameters to meet
the needs of your application.
Note the following generalizations regarding these factors:
• The higher the bandwidth, the higher the capacity
• The higher the mode, the higher the capacity
Single IP Architecture
Exalt radios have a single IP architecture. The IP resides on the processor for management
connectivity. If you are planning to use Out-of-Band management (see the Ethernet Interface
Configuration Page), ensure that devices connected to the radio are properly configured. The
management port (typically Ethernet 1) must be completely separate from the traffic (router or switch)
ports. You can achieve this by using a separate switch or configuring a management-traffic specific
VLAN for the radio management port.
Radio Default Configuration
Radios arrive from manufacture in default configuration configured as shown in Table 2.
Table 2 Factory default settings

Note: In many cases, the system design will not be identical to the factory default
configuration, and in some cases, these differences prohibit the installation of the radio. If at
all possible, obtain a computer and configure the radio terminals using the browser-based
GUI. See Exalt Graphical User Interface (GUI)
