INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Tsunami FAMILY FAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES December, 1999 PAGE 3-18SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS 3.10 Antenna Installation & Alignment The antenna installation consists of permanently mounting the antenna outdoors on a tower, building roof, or other location that provides line-of-sight path clearance to the far-end location. In general, antennas smaller than 2 feet diameter are not recommended for urban areas due to their wider beamwidths, which results in higher interference susceptibility. Antennas should be ordered with a suitable mounting kit specific to the site requirements. For example, specifying round or angle tower leg adapters, or a roof tripod as necessary. The antenna must be very rigidly mounted, with adequate room for azimuth and elevation adjustment from the rear. The antenna polarization must be the same at both ends of the link, either vertical or horizontal. In general, antenna mountings require a support pipe to which upper and lower support brackets are attached with “U” bolts. The antenna and optional elevation and azimuth adjustment rods are then mounted onto the support brackets. The whole structure must be adequately grounded for lightning protection. The antenna system must always be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Unless special test equipment is available, two operating Tsunami terminals are required to align the antennas. Alternatively, a CW generator may be used to transmit a signal toward the end under alignment. The antenna is coarse aligned using visual sighting and then fine aligned using the receive signal level (RSL) voltage of the Tsunami. The RSL voltage reading can still be used to peak antennas even if the radios have not synchronized, however far-end RSL cannot be measured from the near-end terminal until radios are synchronized. To coarse align the antenna, first set it for flat elevation (no up or down tilt) using a spirit level. Then point it at a heading marker obtained using a compass back-bearing from an adjacent location, (ideally, 100 feet or more away from the antenna). If a heading marker cannot be set sufficiently far away (for example when on a city building roof or looking through a window) then a rough azimuth setting can be obtained by sighting along the antenna feed. INSTALLER CAUTION: Antennas used for this device must be fix-mounted on permanent outdoor structures to provide 5 feet or more separation from all persons during device operation to comply with FCC RF exposure requirements. Installers should contact manufacturer for applicable gain and type restrictions to ensure compliance. INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Tsunami FAMILY FAST ETHERNET WIRELESS BRIDGES December, 1999 PAGE 3-19SECTION 3: INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENTS It should be verified that both antennas are on the same polarization by using the manufacturer’s instructions. Otherwise the RSL will be approximately 25 to 30 dB below the calculated level. Most antennas will also need fine alignment obtained using an operating link because it is very important to maximize the receive RF signal level at each end of the radio link. Read Section 3.7 before applying DC power to the Tsunami radio. Once the coarse alignment has been set-up at both ends, then the link can be powered and some level of reliable communication established. The voltage at the Tsunami front panel RSL test point should be measured with a DVM to determine the relative receive RF signal level. For the fine alignment, adjusting first the azimuth and then the elevation of the local antenna will maximize the RSL voltage. Then, the far antenna is aligned in the same way, using the RSL voltage of its local Tsunami radio. When aligning antennas it may be convenient to run two wires from the RSL and ground test points to the antenna so that the voltmeter reading is directly visible to the technicians aligning the antenna. Also, a cellular telephone or two-way radio may be useful for coordinating alignment activities between both ends of the link. Once the radios are coarse aligned and synchronized, the built-in orderwire phone service can also be used to coordinate alignment between both ends of the link. An orderwire telephone will provide end-to-end voice communications once radios are synchronized. Synchronization usually can be accomplished by coarse alignment only. After synchronization, the orderwire phones can be used to communicate between radio sites for antenna fine alignment. The phone interconnect cable can be extended to the antenna when desired. The larger the antenna size, the more critical alignment becomes: for example, with a 2 foot dish, the antenna can be moved ±3 degrees off the correct heading before the receive signal level drops by 3 dB. This compares with a 6-foot dish which may only be moved ±1 degree for the same degradation. The graph shown in Figure 3-6 shows the typical variation of RSL voltage as the receive signal level is increased from threshold to a higher level. There is some variation between Tsunami receivers, but an approximate estimate of the potential RSL value may be made using this figure.

Federal Communications Commission Authorization and Evaluation Division 7435 Oakland Mills Road Columbia, MD 21046 December 27, 1999 References:(1) FCC Requests: 11060/11061 FCC IDs: HZB-U58-45/HZB-U5358-45 Form 731 Confirmation:EA94823/EA94825 (2) Conversation between Mr. Ken Ruppel and Ms. Caroline Yu of Western Multiplex and Mr. Kwok Chan of FCC on 22 December, 1999. Dear Sirs, Following the referenced (2) conversation, it is understood that the remaining concerns of the Commission are centered about the issue of RF exposure (MPE). This letter is submitted to assist in your understanding of the device and provide the supporting information that was requested during the conversation. The device is professionally installed and can be used with a variety of directional antennas. The antennas that Western Multiplex recommends are 1- or 2-foot flat panel antennas or parabolic antennas ranging from 2- to 8-foot diameter. In addition, a variety of transmission line can be used, including foam coax of ½” or 5/8” diameters or EW-52 waveguide. Depending on the antenna chosen and the length and type of transmission line, the output power of the radio will be set by the installer to not exceed the EIRP limits set forth in the Commission’s rules. The determination of the proper setting is accomplished using information provided in the installation manual. For your reference, included in this submission is a table that provides a summary of the antenna and transmission line characteristics that may apply to this device. In addition, the supporting manufacturers technical specifications of the antennas have also been included. Output power setting information (to meet EIRP limits) is provided in the installation manual as shown on the summary page. As is illustrated in the matrix enclosed, the gain of a given “class” of antenna is nearly uniform, independent of manufacturer. For this reason, Western Multiplex does not list specific manufacturers for antennas. Regarding MPE, in our last submission, we provided the calculations for the worst-case safe distance based on +53 dBm EIRP (using all antenna types). The worst-case calculation yielded a safe distance of over 5 feet. Since a 5-foot distance is very reasonable given any size of antenna (given the nature of tower-mounted or roof-mounted antennas), we felt that the 5-foot distance could be listed for all antennas. We recognize that we could list different distances for different antennas, but chose to simplify our documentation by listing just the 5-foot distance. 1196 Borregas Ave., Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1302, USA Tel: +1 (408) 542-5200,Fax: +1 (408) 542-5300 As requested, we have edited our manual to clarify the intent of the distance requirement.

Federal Communications Commission Authorization and Evaluation Division 7435 Oakland Mills Road Columbia, MD 21046 November 29, 1999 RE:Response to FCC Requests Correspondence Reference Numbers: 10653 FCC IDs: HZB-U5358-45 Form 731 Confirmation Numbers: EA94825 Dear Mr. Czumak: This is in response to your emailed requests regarding the RF exposure issues of our U-NII radios in application. Both HZB-U58-45 and HZB-U5358-45 U-NII radios are full duty-cycle products exclusively designed for fixed-mount point-to-point applications (Please refer to Page 1-1 of the Installation and Maintenance Manual). Each radio’s inputs are connected to external equipment through their 100BaseT interfaces. The RF output port is connected to a RF cable or a waveguide, which connects on the other side to an antenna usually installed on top of a building or a tower. It is impossible to use the radio in any mobile application. The radios need to be professionally installed outdoor either on top of a tower or on a tall building. The installation sites are inaccessible to the general public. Only installation engineers may get close to the radio antenna during system installation. For the safety concern of the professional installers, we put a warning message on Page 3-18 of the product manual recommending installers stay at least 5 feet away from the antenna during system operation. (We updated the manual and changed the distance from 2 feet to 5 feet. Please refer to page 3-18 of the updated manual). The EIRP limits for our radios are +30dBm at 5.25-5.35 GHz and +53dBm at 5.725-5.825 GHz. For the worst case of EIRP of 53dBm, the power density at 5 feet from an antenna is: S = EIRP/4πR 2 = 6.9W/m 2 = 0.69 mW/cm 2 < 1 mW/cm 2 Where: S = Power density R = distance to the center of radiation of the antenna In the cases of using 2’, 4’, and 6’ parabolic antennas, The near field power density is : S nf = 16ηP/π D 2 . The worst case of near-field power density is when the radio output at the certified power, η=1, and the antenna diameter D=2ft. S nf max = 16x0.302/π (2x0.3048) 2 = = 4.1 W/m 2 = 0.41 mW/cm 2 <1 mW/cm 2 Where: S nf = maximum near –field power density P = power fed to the antenna η = aperture efficiency D = antenna diameter 1196 Borregas Ave., Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1302, USA Tel: +1 (408) 542-5200,Fax: +1 (408) 542-5300 The far field power density is: S ff = PG/4πR 2 . A worst estimate is when the output power is at the highest of 302 mW, the antenna gain is the highest of 38dB, and the distance to antenna is at the closest of 5 feet. S ff = PG/4πR 2 = 0.302x38/4π(5x0.3048) 2 = 0.39 W/m 2 = 0.039 mW/cm 2 <1 mW/cm 2 Where: S ff = power density (on axis) P = Power fed to the antenna R = distance to the point of interest In all the above-mentioned cases, the power density is compliant with the limit for General Population/ Uncontrolled Exposure as specified in rule 1.1310. We have removed the paragraph regarding “ mounting indoors in front of the windows” from the product manual (Please refer to page 3-18 of the updated manual). This information was incorrectly copied from another manual. Like all our other spread spectrum radio products, the above-mentioned U-NII product is strictly for outdoor, point-to-point directional applications. I hope I have addressed all the requests you raised in your email and with these explanations, we will be able to receive the grants for the applied product soon. Please let me know if you should have any further questions and please address all correspondence to the undersigned. Sincerely yours Caroline Yu International Product Manager Western Multiplex Corp.
