About the Installation Guide This Installation Guide is intended to guide a professional installer to install the SGT-LD-523. It includes procedures to assist you in avoiding unforeseen problems.
Chapter 1 Introduction Introduction The SGT-LD-5-23 is a high-performance outdoor-deployable radio bridge that provides radio connectivity amongst multiple network locations. The SGT-LD-5-23 has support for Base Station, CPE, PTP and PTMP connectivity modes. Moreover, the SGT-LD-5-23 has a built-in 23dBi flat-panel antenna that can be used for connections in excess of 40km.
Chapter 2 Preparation before Installation This chapter describes safety precautions and product information that you have to know and check before installing a SGT-LD-5-23. Professional Installation Required 1 Please seek assistance from a professional installer who is well trained in RF and network installation and who is knowledgeable regarding local regulations.
Installation Precautions To keep the SGT-LD-5-23 in good condition while you are installing it (and for subsequent high performance), please read and follow these installation precautions. 1 Users MUST use a suitable and well-installed surge arrestor and grounding kit with SGT-LD-5-23; otherwise, random lightning can cause fatal damage to the SGT-LD5-23. EMD (Lightning) DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

Chapter 3 System Installation Assemble the Mounting Bracket 1 Place the main bracket into the seating and use a spanner to fasten the bracket to the SGT-LD-5-23 with M5×16 screws and M5 washers provided in the hardware packets; 2 Assemble the main bracket by placing articulation pole to the T-form bracket via a M8×90 screw through the insertion axe and fix with the M8 washer, spring washer and M8 nut;
Pole Mounting 1 Install the main bracket and the pole mount bar over the top of the pole by securing the drill holes of the pole mount bar to the main bracket ones and insert two M8×80 screws, spring washers and washers through the drill holes and main bracket; 2 Fasten two M8×80 screws and washers through the drill holes and main bracket with a spanner; 3 Adjust the antenna for appropriate tilt / vertical orientation.
Connect Up Before installing the Ethernet cable with a waterproof RJ-45 connector, it is recommended that the Cat-5 RJ-45 cable be used for the bridge to power injector connections. To connect to the hole labelled PoE+Data, open the black cover in advance by using a coin or a slotted screwdriver and then screw in the body of the gland and tighten. Slide the sealing nut to the RJ-45 cable from its middle breach and then insert the sealing into the cable.
Ground the wire The SGT-LD-5-23 is shipped with a grounding wire. The unit must be properly grounded to protect against power surges. The grounding point can be found on the bottom of the unit. It is supplied with an appropriate grounding lug for attachment to the ODU (Outdoor Unit).
Warning: Make sure that the PoE is correctly connected to the RJ-45 port on the SGTLD-5-23 labelled PoE+Data.
Chapter 4 Configuration Connect the SGT-LD-5-23 to a Local Computer If you are configuring the SGT-LD-5-23 locally (without connecting its power injector to a wired LAN), connect a PC to the power injector’s Ethernet port using a Category 5 Ethernet cable. 1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, which is in the same network segment as the SGT-LD-5-23. As the default IP address of this unit is 192.168.1.1, you may choose from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254. 2.
Note: Considering convenient configuration, it is recommended to configure local and remote SGT-LD-5-23 respectively on two computers. TTL time may vary depending on the operating system.
How to Establish Wireless Bridge Mode The SGT-LD-5-23 supports four operating modes, which are Base Station, CPE, Peer-toPeer (CSMA) and Peer-to-Peer (TDMA). Normally, Wireless Bridge is the standard mode on this unit. Here, we will illustrate how to establish wireless bridge connectivity with the SGT-LD-5-23. Enter the user name (admin) and password (password) to login and make configuration adjustments. Note: Due to the browser’s security trusted site allocation, 192.168.1.
same network segment. e.g. local SGT-LD-5-23 as 192.168.1.1 and remote SGT-LD-5-23 as 192.168.1.2 and set the IP Subnet Mask on both as 255.255.255.0. Warning: Each IP address must be unique within a LAN, otherwise IP collisions may occur. Open “Radio” in “Wireless” and you will find the default operating mode is Peer-to-Peer (CSMA). Select to use the Peer-to-Peer (CSMA) operating mode and keep the Channel/Frequency and Bandwidth on both SGT-LD-5-23’s identical. Click “Apply” to save settings.
Login to the Web-based interface of the remote SGT-LD-5-23, open “About” in “System” and record its wireless MAC address.
Warning: The MAC address on the housing of SGT-LD-5-23 is the ETH MAC address; therefore it cannot be used in Peer-to-Peer links. The IP address of your PC should be in the same network segment as the one of the bridges. Use ping to check if the link between the two SGT-LD-5-23 is connected. To get a better wireless connectivity, antenna alignment is strongly recommended after both SGT-LD-5-23’s are installed a long distance apart.
Fix the local antenna and adjust the remote antenna elevation and horizontal direction. During the adjustment, observe “Current RSSI” in the local SGT-LD-5-23. Fix the remote antenna when it reaches your expected RSSI. Usually, a RSSI between -60 and -70dBm indicates rather good signal strength. Adjust the local antenna after fixing the remote one. During the adjustment, observe “Current RSSI” in the remote SGT-LD-5-23. Fix the local antenna when it reaches your expected RSSI.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting This chapter provides troubleshooting procedures for basic problems with the SGT-LD-5-23. Q 1. What if my SGT-LD-5-23 fails to connect to the remote one? Ethernet Link: Check the availability of power to the bridge by observing the LED status on the power injector - Green: The SGT-LD-5-23 is connecting to the backhaul network. -Off: The SGT-LD-5-23 is disconnected from the wired network; check if the power cord and Ethernet cables to the network and bridge are correctly connected.
