1. Introduction Vivint Pandora is an outdoor (Multi)Point-to-Multipoint TDD radio in the unlicensed V-band (57-71 GHz) based on WiGig technology, IEEE 802.11ad. It can provide 2 Gbps user traffic in each direction (four directions giving 8 Gbps in total). Pandora comes in two versions, either with an additional LAN port, or with an SFP+ (10Gbps) port. It is powered by proprietary Power over Ethernet (PoE) or 48 VDC.

The radio lobes can be vertically adjusted +/-15 degrees to cover uneven ground and different roof heights. All adjustments, both horizontally and vertically, are done electronically via software running on the Qualcomm baseband and RF chipset. Figure 3: Vertical adjustment of the Pandora Radio Lobe. The Pandora comes in two variants, one with two RJ45 Ethernet connections, and one for one RJ45 and one SFP+ Ethernet connection. Both variants deliver Gigabit connections on both inputs.

Avoid operating this product at a distance less than 11.4 in. (29 cm) from the user. 3. Directions for Use The Pandora is designed for outdoor use in broadband radio mesh setups. This means for example University campuses, local housing areas, etc.
This kind of remote managed network provides the means for building the network at a pace fitting the area and must not be fully deployed before taken into use. Hands on work on the equipment is only required at installation, or if service is required. 3.1. Preconditions The preconditions for using a Pandora is that the installation and use in all parts follow what has been stated by the supplier and manufacturer.
The Pandora comes in a wellboard box lined with specially cast plastic foam lining. Start by cutting the box sealing tape and take out the parts. Each box includes the following parts: One Pandora Node. One bag with Strain Relief parts, One bag with Gasket and plugs for complete weather proofing of the different cable connections. 4.3. Installing The Pandora node is installed as follows: 4.3.1.
Grounding ECB0013/xxx Grounding cable colors to be used, 10 AWG (6 mm2) SFP+ EGE0015/xxxx Finisar 10GBASE-LR,1310 nm, 1.4 km, SM, LC After collecting the applicable cables, do the following: 1. Pull the cables to be connected to the pole on roof top. 2. Pull the cables through the pole (from bottom to top). 3. The cables are either already terminated with appropriate connectors or can be terminated and crimped on the roof. 4. In case of field termination, crimp the connectors to the cables 4.3.3.
As soon as the Pandora node is connected to the network, it automatically registers itself towards the Vivint System which sends the appropriate configuration to the node, The node then automatically applies the new configuration and is from then on an active part in the network. While the node restarts with the new configuration, the network management personnel monitors the activities via the Network management System and waits for OK on: Connected to another mesh node. Connected to the ACS.
