Introduction This document provides network planning, installation, configuration and preventive maintenance information for the Access Point models AP-R9-E (ETSI standard) and AP-R9-F (FCC standard) as a part of the Total Reach Network (TRN). There are multiple configurations for the Access Point (AP) depending upon the country in which it will be used. Figure 2. Wireless Access Point (models AP-R9-E and AP-R9-F) This document is compatible with the software versions shown in the following table. Table 2.
Introduction Overview The AP is the core component of the Total Reach Network (TRN) and TRN base station solutions. It provides the functionality of an RF transceiver, a data processor, and a data router. The RF transceiver operates in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz ISM band on one of thirty-eight 1 MHz channels. The AP utilizes Time Division Duplexing and Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum with a proprietary Random Phase Multiple Access (RPMA) modulation technique.

Introduction For questions or technical assistance, contact Trilliant Customer Support (see How to Contact Trilliant on page iii). Referenced Documents The following document provides additional details about the AP. Provides detail about product specifications, characteristics, and requirements for the AP. • EMS Operator Guide 2.1 (010-0107-00) Provides instruction on using the Element Management System (EMS) to manage and monitor the Access Point.
Network Planning and Configuration Considerations Prior to the installation of an AP at a new location, a number of network design and configuration decisions must be addressed. This chapter provides an overview of these decisions which should be reflected in the AP Installation Configuration Worksheet provided in “Error! R eference source not found.” on page 69. Detailed network planning and configuration is outside the scope of this document.
Network Planning and Configuration Considerations • Assign AP channel (frequency) and Reuse Code • Determine antenna cable attenuation • Determine AP transmit power setting • The maximum permissible Effective Radiated Power, ERP, is determined by the regulations for the country where the AP will be installed (e.g., ETSI, FCC). The actual ERP is determined by the AP’s transmit power output, antenna gain and antenna cable loss.
• Transmit output power setting, most frequently automatically set by inserting antenna cable loss in dB when using the standard antenna for the country of operation. In the United States the standard antenna’s gain is 9 dBi. Backhaul Backhaul is the interconnection of the APs in a network to the back-office systems including the gateway and the element management system. The backhaul method to be used must be determined for each AP prior to installation.
Installation Prerequisites and Considerations Before starting the actual physical installation of an AP, it is very important to complete the prerequisite tasks outlined in this chapter as well as take into account the installation considerations indicated. Information gathering templates are provided in the appendices of this document. Installation Prerequisites Site Survey A site survey should be conducted prior to installation for all AP sites.
Installation Prerequisites and Considerations • Landlord contact information • AP power type, commercial power, solar solution or other • Specific landlord requirements • Distance to available power • Latitude • Longitude • Site type (building, tower, pole, or other) • Photos of site including antennal location, AP location, and the overall site • Height of existing structure • Other site-specific information • AP and equipment mounting locations AP Installation Configuration The AP installation
• Ethernet cable type and length, if required • Gateway port number • AP IP Address type, Static or Dynamic • Server port • AP IP Address assignment, if static • Reuse code • Netmask setting Installation Considerations When planning a new AP installation, the following items must be considered. AP Antenna The AP antenna should be mounted at a location that minimizes physical obstructions between the antenna and the endpoints with which it will be communicating.
Installation Prerequisites and Considerations The table below shows the attenuation for common types of antenna lines. Table 3. Attenuation at 2.4 GHz for Common Types of Antenna Cables Model Size dB/25 ft dB/50 ft dB/100 ft dB/150 ft dB/200 ft LMR-400 .40 inch 1.7 3.4 6.8 10.2 13.6 FSJ4-50B ½ inch 1.5 3.1 6.1 9.2 12.2 LDF4-50A ½ inch .9 1.9 3.7 5.6 7.4 AVA5-50 ⅞ inch .5 1.0 1.9 2.9 3.8 AVA7-50 1⅝ inch .3 .6 1.2 1.8 2.
Figure 5. PCTEL GPS Model GPSL1-TMG-SPI-40NCB The PCTEL GPSL1-TMG-SPI-40NCB GPS antenna has a type-N female connector. Note: Most GPS antennas have a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) that requires power from the AP. The AP supplies 3.3 V at up to 50 ma. If this current is exceeded, the AP detects the excess current and shuts down its GPS power supply. When this occurs, the AP sends a GPS antenna fault message back to the EMS. The AP must be power cycled to restore power to the GPS antenna.
Installation Prerequisites and Considerations AP DC Power Requirement The AP is powered over the Ethernet port using a PoE injector. The acceptable power source voltage range is 38 – 72 VDC. At the nominal input voltage of 48 VDC the typical input current is 0.3 Amps. The maximum input power dissipation is 17 Watts. When connecting to the distribution panel of a 48 VDC power system, it should be fused with a minimum of a ½ Amp slow-blow fuse. The maximum fuse or circuit breaker size should be 2 Amps.

AP Installation AP Mounting Details Mounting options for the AP are discussed in this section. The AP is supplied with four mounting tabs that facilitate attaching the AP to a wall, in a cabinet, or to a strut channel, if required. The mounting tabs are attached to the AP by the installer using four provided, 5/16inch self-tapping, hex head bolts. See the mounting tabs shown in Figure 10. Figure 10. AP with Mounting Tabs Installed AP Pipe Mount Option We offer an optional pipe mount kit for the AP.
Hardware Installation Verification Power Verification Prior to applying power to the AP, confirm with a Digital Voltmeter (DVM) that the DC voltage is correct at the PoE injector. The DC voltage should be between 48 VDC and 54 VDC. Note: The AP its self is not polarity sensitive, however, it is recommended that the barrel of the PoE power plug be at ground potential if the power system is grounded.
Hardware Installation Verification If the Return Loss is not acceptable, the antenna should be disconnected and the antenna line should be terminated with a 50 ohm load. The Return Loss test should be repeated. If the antenna line Return Loss is now greater than 20 dB and is flat across the frequency range, the antenna should be replaced.
o Type and length of coaxial cable should be recorded for each run. Grounding Verify that the mounting hardware, AP, antenna cable, and lightning suppressor are properly grounded. Connector Weather Sealing Verify that all outdoor connectors are properly weather sealed. Mounting Hardware Verify that all mounting hardware is tight and secure.
