INTRODUCING FibreAir IP-10• FibeAir IP-10 is Ceragon's comprehensive high capacity

IP and Migration-to-IP network solution. The innovative IP-10 was designed as a native Ethernet microwave radio platform that can integrate smoothly in any network, while providing a broad range of software-configurable licensed channel schemes.

• IP-10 follows in the tradition of Ceragon's Native2, which allows your network to benefit from both native TDM and native Ethernet using the same radio. Flexible bandwidth sharing between the TDM and Ethernet traffic ensures optimal throughput for all your media transfer needs.

Some of the quick points that place IP-10 at the top of the wireless IP offerings:

• Supports all licensed bands, from 6 to 38 GHz

• Supports channel bandwidths of from 7 MHz to 56 MHz

• Supports throughputs of from 10 to 500 Mbps per radio carrier (QPSK to 256 QAM)

• Incorporates advanced integrated Ethernet switching capabilities

• In addition, using unique Adaptive Coding & Modulation (ACM), your network benefits from non-stop dependable, capacity deliverance.

Features

• Modulations: QPSK to 256 QAM

• All licensed bands: L6, U6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 18, 23, 26, 28, 32, 38 GHz

• Highest scalability: From 10 Mbps to 500 Mbps, using the same hardware, including the same ODU/RFU

• Configurations: 1+0 or 1+1 Hot Standby (fully redundant)

System Overview

• Split-mount architecture (IDU and RFU/ODU)

• Compatible with all existing Ceragon RFUs/ODUs.

• Height: 42.6 mm (1RU)

• Width: 439 mm (<19")

• DC input voltage nominal rating: -48V

SITE REQUIREMENTS

• Must be located indoors.

• The environment temperature must be between -5 C and +45 C.

• Easily accessible, but only by authorized personnel.

• Available power source of -48 VDC, and the site must comply with National Electric Code (NEC)

• standards.

• Available management connection (Ethernet or dial-up).

• No more than 300 m from RFU location.

TOOLS REQUIRED

• Philips screwdriver (for mounting the IDU to the rack and grounding screw)

• Flathead small screwdriver (for PSU connector)

• Sharp cutting knife (for wire stripping)

• Crimping tool for ground cable lug crimping (optional: if alternative grounding cable is used).

The FibeAir IP-10 IDU is installed in a standard 19" ETSI rack as shown in the following illustration

As shown in the illustration, four screws, supplied with the installation kit, are used to secure the IDU to the rack.

The following illustration shows the dimensions (in millimeters) of the FibeAir IP-10 IDU.

PROCEDURE

• Install the IP-10 XC main backplane main in the19 inch rack using four screws.

In accordance with the configuration, install the IP-10 XC extended backplane above the IP-10 XC main backplane by sliding it down.

Fasten the two screws at the back of the IP-10 XC extended backplane.

• Install the IP-10 XC main backplane in the 19 inch rack using four screws.

• Remove the two 19 inch brackets mounted on the IP-10 IDU by releasing the three screws at each side.

• Install the two special 19 inch brackets on the IP-10 IDU. The brackets are supplied with the IP-10 XC backplane kit.

• Slide the IP-10 IDU in the IP-10 XC backplane and fasten it using two screws.

• Repeat the procedure in accordance with the configuration.

GROUNDING THE IDU• On the IDU, connect a grounding wire to the single

point stud below the IDU-RFU interface (using the single screw with two washers), and, at its other end, to the rack.

• Connect the power cable to the IDU power connector, and at the other end to the power source.

• Note: Connecting the power cable to a live power source will cause the IDU to be powered on.

• Important! Make sure to use a circuit breaker to protect the circuit from damage by short or overload

Power Supply Notes

When selecting a power source, the following must be considered:

• DC power can be from -40.5 VDC to -60 VDC.

• Whether or not the power source provides constant power (i.e., power is secured on weekends or is shut off frequently and consistently).

• The power supply must have grounding points on the AC and DC sides.
