Introduction The smartBridges SB3000 is a complete wireless high speed Network Interface Card (NIC) used for Point to Point Links with external antennas . Developed by modifying GlobespanVirata ISL39200M WLAN NIC, it conforms to the IEEE 802.11a protocol , works in point to point mode and operates in the 5725-5850 MHz frequency band. The device shall not be used in any application other than Point to Point mode. 1. The module has Radio PCB and Booster PCB glued together inseparably with epoxy based potting compound . Any attempt to separate the PCB’s will destroy both the PCB’s irrepairably . Booster is an amplifier which keeps intact spectral mask and offers higher receiver sensitivity for the radio. This platform is used to enhance Nexus features. 2. Antennas qualified with the device are 32dBi Parabolic Dish , 29dBi Parabolic grid , 14 dBi Panel . No other antenna is allowed for use with the device. • Fully compliant with the IEEE 802.11a WLAN standards for Point to point links • FCC Certified Under Part 15 (pending) to Operate in the 5725-5850 MHz Band • Support for 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, and 6 Mbps OFDM • Driver Supports Microsoft Windows ® 98/SE, ME, XP and 2000 (SR1) 3. Installation Procedure SB 3000 has to be installed inside smartBridges NEXUS 3010 etc out door specified back haul devices . 3.1 NEXUS 3010 BackHaul device for outdoor application NEXUS 3010 is a Back Haul Point to Point link for carrying high data traffic . It uses Intel IXP 425 BCT a powerful processor to run the application and provide high security . It provides two Ethernet ports for connection to network devices or PC . Antenna is connected to the NEXUS unit . NEXUS 3010 is meant for out door application . It has to be mounted on Tower or roof top along with the antenna . It has all mounting hardware for this purpose . 3.2 Installing SB 3000 into NEXUS 3010 The module SB 3000 is normally installed into NEXUS 3010 in the factory at the time of manufacturing . NEXUS 3010 has mini PCI connector ( socket ). The Radio module SB 3000 can directly fit into the NEXUS unit and is fixed by screws to the mounting pillars shown . FCC ID PWG NEXUS 1 4 Installation Manual IXP 425 communicates with the Radio module and routes the data signals with necessary mini PCI format and controlling software . The units are run by software resident in the memory IC’s . SB 3010 can communicate to another SB 3010 only . The second device can be connected only when its MAC number is written into the first device . Channel blocking is provided by the software control which does not allow the user to select un authorized channels . 3.3 NEXUS 3010 Software NEXUS 3010 runs on its own software and does not require external PC software . PC provides Graphic User Interface and displays all controls and allows the user to configure the units . One unit is configured as Root device and another is configured as Remote Client . Root is master device and Client is slave in configuration . This configuration is required for networking purposes . Channel setting and output power control and client authentication are main functions of master . Slave gets wireless signals , decodes them and outputs them through Ethernet connector . The access points and other network devices are connected through the Ethernet link . Master normally connects to the internet back bone . 3.4 User Manual NEXUS 3010 SB 3000 module which is the main Transmitting and Receiving module inside NEXUS 3010 does not have independent user interface functionality . User controls the Radio module through NEXUS 3010 operating Instructions . The Instructions run as below . 2.4.1 Activating the Link It is recommended that you activate and configure the NEXUS 3010 link on your desktop prior to mounting the units in the field. Associating the units in advance will facilitate antenna alignment and simplify the overall installation procedure. Below are instructions on how to perform a basic association to allow antenna alignment. By default, one unit will operate in Root Bridge Mode and the other will operate in Remote Client Bridge Mode. Follow these steps to configure the first unit for Root FCC ID PWG NEXUS 1 5 Installation Manual Bridge Mode: First Unit Setup Note The default IP Address of NEXUS 3010 units is 192.168.1.1 and the default IP Mask i…

It consists of a MAC ( Media Access Controller ) , RF converter , filters , power amplifier , Transmit Receive switch and RF output connector ( FL type ) Transmit Path : The MAC controller takes the Data signals coming from the mini PCI port of a PC or other unit like NEXUS 3010 . It converts the Digital signals with headers and security wep keys to conform to 802.11a specs . The signal flows to the baseband processor which is part of the MAC controller and gets converted into differential OFDM signals . The OFDM data rates are controlled by the MAC controller depending upon the noise conditions in the wireless transmission path . The differential OFDM signals are applied to the RF converter . RF converter is of Zero IF type and uses an external VCO running at 11 ~ 12 GHz . Output is at 5.725 ~ 5.85 GHz in Transmit mode. RF output from the RF converter is passed through attenuator and filter to the power amplifier . Power amplifier provides the output power required . Output of the power amplifier is taken through a Band Pass Filter , Transmit Receive Switch to the RF connector . Receive Path : Received RF signals are taken from the RF connector , through the Transmit Receive Switch to the receiver Band Pass Filter and Low Noise pre Amplifier . The RF signal passes to the RF converter IC . The RF converter converts the RF to baseband signals in the Receive mode . Simultaneous Transmit and Receive actions are not allowed in the RF converter IC . The MAC controller receives the baseband signals . The baseband signals are decoded and headers and security keys removed and retrieved digital signals are applied to the PCI connector from where it flows into the PC or NEXUS 3010 unit .
