WM5030-OD MOUNTING GUIDE 2. HOW TO CONNECT In order to configure WM5030-OD outdoor modem, please take the following steps: 1. Power is supplied thru the 8P8C Ethernet cable to outdoor modem, therefore it is important to use 8P8C Ethernet cable of adequate length to connect the RJ-45 connector located at the bottom of the outdoor modem and the “Data & Power Out” port of PoE adapter. 2. Connect the gray Ethernet cable between the “data in” port of the PoE adapter and subscriber’s personal computer. 3.
WM5030-OD MOUNTING GUIDE 3. BEFORE YOU START 3.1 Mounting Location Choosing a good mounting location for the outdoor modem is important because it affects the reliability of the wireless link and maximum data rates it can support. The most important considerations are distance from base station and clearance from obstacles.
WM5030-OD MOUNTING GUIDE Identify cable routes, building entry points, and any special routing or support requirements (conduits, bracing, cable trays, safety structures, and so on). Make sure the total cable length between the outdoor modem and the PoE is no longer than 100 meters. Identify necessary floor, roof, or wall penetrations and specify the locations. Document existing grounding system and connection requirements for new equipment.
WM5030-OD MOUNTING GUIDE Call your electric power company. Tell them your plans, and ask them to look at your proposed installation. This is a reasonable request considering the danger. Plan your installation carefully and completely before you begin. Successful rising of a mast or tower is largely a matter of coordination. Assign each person a specific task, and ensure that they know what to do and when to do it.
WM5030-OD MOUNTING GUIDE 4. MOUNTING WM5030-OD 4.1 Polarization Polarization helps reduce interference because the antenna tends to reject cross-polarized signals from other sources. Please contact your base station vendor for information on polarization. Orient WM5030-OD according to the base station polarization.
WM5030-OD MOUNTING GUIDE 4.2 Mounting Mounting on pole A. The metal bands supplied with WM5030-OD, support pole diameter of 75mm~90mm. Run the metal bands thru the elevation clamp and the pole to fix the mounting unit to the pole. Do not tight the screws fully at this point yet, but tight enough to support the weight of WM5030-OD. You will need to orient the WM5030-OD for best reception later. B. Fasten the mounting clamp to the WM5030-OD with screws provided. C.
WM5030-OD MOUNTING GUIDE B. Connect OMK (please refer to next section for details of OMK) to the OMK connector located at the bottom of WM5030-OD. Make sure the power LED is on. Please check Ethernet cable and PoE connection if the power LED is not on. C. OMK (Outdoor modem Monitoring Kit) provides you the signal strength (CINR) with CINR LED. Position WM5030-OD when you have more than 7 or more CINR LED on. Use a marker to mark this position for wall mount. D. Screw the elevation clamp to the wall.
WM5030-OD MOUNTING GUIDE 5. OMK OMK (Outdoor modem Monitoring Kit) is a convenient tool for technician during installation, testing and maintenance for WM5030-OD. It is designed for easy carrying and an excellent tool to display radio quality for technician to adjust orientation and tilt of WM5030-OD for best reception from WiMAX base station. OMK features include: z CINR signal quality z Link status z Power indicator z Reset to factory default Figure 4.
