A 100 Albright Way, Suite A Los Gatos, CA 95032 USA, Phone: 408-558-2300 www.arcwaveinc.com © 2006 2 of 47 About this document This guide is designed familiarize you with the ARCXtend MetroE Wireless Plant Extension solution (WPE) solution and to provide basic instructions on the planning, provisioning, verification, monitoring and expansion of MetroE deployments. It is designed to be used on conjunction with the ARCView Mesh Management Software User Guide which provides detailed information on the Note The software used on the ARCXtend MetroE wireless plant extension solution supports not only point to point and point to multipoint but also mesh network topologies. The ARCView network management software uses the term ‘‘mesh’ for all configurations. For consistency this guide will also use the term mesh to describe any configuration of two or more MetroE nodes. A node refers to one radio which for the purpose of this guide is one MetroE radio. Again we will use node to refer to an MetroE radio for consistency with ARCView.

ISSUE # AUTHOR CHECK OUT CHECK IN COMMENTS 1.0 CM JUNE 7, 2006 FOR BETA RELEASE 3 of 47 Notices The information in this publication is subject to change without notice. Arcwave shall not be liable for technical or editorial errors or omissions nor for any damages resulting from the use of this material. U.S. Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Notification This device complies with part 15 of the U. S. FCC Rules and Regulations and which is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the U.S. FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with these instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is encouraged to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Increase the separation between the affected equipment and the unit; • Connect the affected equipment to a power outlet on a different circuit from that which the receiver is connected to; • Consult the dealer and/or experienced radio/TV technician for help. Part 15, Section 15.21 Warning Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Arcwave, Inc. could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. FCC IDs Numbers are listed below: FCC Identifier: PLRFX501000 RF Safety Warning To ensure compliance with FCC recommended General Population/Uncontrolled exposure limits the ARCXtend MetroE radio must be installed at a minimum of one foot from areas frequented by the general population. To ensure compliance with FCC recommended Occupational/Controlled exposure limits, field engineers and technicians should maintain a minimum working distance of six inches, as measured from the front of the radio to the front of their bodies. For working distance inside six inches, RF exposure should be limited to an average of 30 minutes at a time. All Arcwave equipment, however, has been designed to allow installation and maintenance at a range well within FCC RF exposure levels. 4 of 47 Table of Contents The ARCXtend MetroE Wireless Plant Extension Solution 5 The ARCXtend MetroE Solutions 10 Planning a MetroE Deployment 12 ARCView Mesh Management Software for MetroE Nodes 14 Installing ARCView 16 Using ARCView 18 Quick Mesh Check 20 Country Code Setting 21 Customizing Your Mesh Network 22 Configuring Individual Nodes 27 Installing Nodes 33 Aligning Nodes 37 Link Verification 38 Retorting Default Settings 44 Appendix A: Arcwave Support 45 Appendix B: FX5010 Technical Specification 46 5 of 47 The ARCXtend MetroE Wireless Plant Extension Solution The ARCXtend MetroE wireless plant extension solution creates a transparent wireless Ethernet bridge between a cable operator’s fiber network and small and medium-sized business customers’ sites supporting delivery of high value Ethernet services without the delay and expense of a fiber extension. A MetroE solution consists of a pair of fully integrated outdoor radios, called nodes, which together create a point-to- point wireless link that transparently bridges the fiber network and customer LANs. The MetroE node can be strand; pole or mast mounted and powered using IEEE 802.3af standard Power over Ethernet (POE) or 60 or 90 VAC coaxial cable line-powering. It includes a weatherized RJ-45 Fast Ethernet port for enabling direct, all outdoor connection to aerial fiber plants via hardened media converters or for connecting to standard customer premise equipment including switches, routers, firewalls and network interface devices. The two radios together form a low latency (less than 2 milliseconds one way), high availability point to point wireless link operating in the license-free 5 GHz band…
