Subscriber Station Radio
The SS radio operates in one of 744 possible frequency channels set by the user in the licensed 3.65 - 3.675 GHz bands,
and time duplexes between receiving downlink bursts from the BS and transmitting uplink bursts to the BS.
The major functions of the SS radio include:
• Signal Radiation/Reception: An integrated or external antenna receives downlink and radiates uplink RF signals.
• Upconversion/Downconversion: Received downlink RF signals are amplified and downconverted to baseband for
demodulation; modulated uplink signals from baseband to RF are upconverted and amplified to a controlled power
level.
• Modulation/Demodulation: Received baseband signals are demodulated and FEC decoded into MAC protocol data
units (PDUs). Uplink PDUs are FEC encoded and modulate the baseband uplink. The demodulation function also
includes carrier-frequency, symbol-timing synchronization, and channel equalization.
• Wireless MAC Functions: Control and traffic messages destined for Ethernet hosts and TDM interfaces connected
to the SS are parsed from downlink MAC PDUs. Uplink PDUs are constructed to transport control and traffic data from
Ethernet hosts and TDM interfaces. The MAC also controls uplink synchronization, power control, network entry,
bandwidth requests, QoS scheduling, encryption, and key management.
• Network Services: Services to connect a 10/100Base-T Ethernet interface to the wireless network include the
following capabilities: bridging, VLAN awareness, ICMP, and PPPoE.
• SS Management: Configuration and dynamic control of the SS are provided via the BS, a command-line interface
(CLI), an HTTP GUI, and SNMP. Performance and status data can be displayed to enable a local or remote operator
to determine the operational status, usage, and link performance of the SS. Status and performance information is
also sent to the BS as requested.
Base Station/Subscriber Station LEDs
Two LED indicators are available on the Ethernet port of the BS and SS. These LEDs display the activity of the Ethernet
and RF links. If a water-tight cap is installed with the unit, you will need to unscrew it to view the LEDs.

Power Adaptor
The power adaptor provides Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), supplying electricity and wired connectivity to the unit over a
single 24 AWG CAT5 (diameter .114 to .250 inches/2.9 to 6.4 mm). The unit is not 802.3af-compatible. Always use the
supplied power injector to ensure that the unit is powered properly. Note that the Active Ethernet module provides +48
VDC over a standard CAT5 Ethernet cable.
Depressing the power adaptor’s Reload button for five seconds during power-up remotely resets BS/SS parameters
affecting communication between the BS and SS to their factory default settings: IP address, subnet mask, user name,
password, Ethernet speed/duplex, and VLAN mode.
