Introduction The smartBridges SB3001 is a complete wirelessLAN high speed Network Interface Card (NIC) used for Point to Point and Point to Multi Point Links with external antennas.Developed by modifying GlobespanVirata ISL39200M WLAN NIC, it conforms to the IEEE 802.11a,b,g protocol , works in point to point and point to multi point mode and operates in the 2412-2483.5,5250-5350 MHz frequency band. The device shall not be used in any application other than Point to Point and Point to multi Point modes. 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 31dBi Parabolic Dish 5.3 GHz , 31.5 dBi Parabolic Dish 5.25~5.7GHz , 29dBi Parabolic grid , 29 dBi Panel for 5.25 ~ 5.35 GHz band and 5.25 ~ 5.75 GHz bands . For 2.412 ~ 2.485 GHz band following antennas are qualified : 24 dBi Parabolic Grid , 17 dBi Vertically Polarised Sector antenna , 16.5 dBi Horizontally Polarised sector antenna , 12 dBi Omni antenna . Other antennas in the same family but with lower gain are allowed for use with the device. • Fully compliant with the IEEE 802.11a ,b, g WLAN standards for Point to point and Point to Multi Point links • FCC Certified Under Part 15 (pending) to Operate in the 5250~5350 , 2412 ~ 2483.5 MHz Bands • Support for 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, and 6 Mbps OFDM • Driver Supports Microsoft Windows ® 98/SE, ME, XP and 2000 (SR1) 2. Installation Procedure SB 3001 has to be installed inside smartBridges NEXUS 3010 out door specified back haul device or NEXUS 3020 Access Points or NEXUS 3040 Client Devices . 2.1 NEXUS 3010, BackHaul , 3020 , Access Point , 3040 , Client 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 3020 is a wireless Access Point for high data traffic . It uses the same hardware as NEXUS 3010 and provides point to multi Point Access . NEXUS 3040 is a wireless Client device for high speed internet access . It works with NEXUS 3020 as Access Point . Many clients can be connected to an Access Point . NEXUS 3010 , 3020 , 3040 are meant for out door applications . The device has to be mounted on Tower or roof top along with the antenna . It has all mounting hardware for this purpose . 2.2 Installing SB 3001 into NEXUS 3010/ 3020/ 3040 The module SB 3001 is normally installed into NEXUS 3010/ 3020/ 3040 in the factory at the time of manufacturing . NEXUS 3010/ 3210/ 3410 has mini PCI connector ( socket ). The Radio module SB 3001 can directly fit into the NEXUS unit and is fixed by screws to the mounting pillars shown . FCC ID PWG NEXUS2 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 . SB 3210 is an Access Point which can connect to many SB 3410 client devices . 2.3 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 acce…

OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION OF SB 3001 WLAN CARD SB 3001 is a wireless LAN card operating with 802 .11 a , g specs in frequency bands 2.400 ~ 2.483 GHz , 5.25 ~ 5.35 GHz , 5.47 ~ 5.725 GHz band with OFDM modulation at different data rates 54 MBPs to 6 MBPs selected automatically . It consists of a MAC ( Media Access Controller ) , RF converter , filters , power amplifier , Transmit Receive switch and RF output connectors for 2.400 - 2.483 GHz Lo Band and 5.25 ~ 5.35 , 5.47 ~ 5.725 GHz Hi Band ( 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 , NEXUS 3020 , NEXUS 3040 . It converts the Digital signals with headers and security wep keys to conform to 802.11a , g 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 2.400 ~ 2.483 GHz , 5.25 ~ 5.35 GHz , 5.47 GHz ~ 5.725 GHz in Transmit mode. RF output from the RF converter is passed through attenuator and filter to the dual band power amplifiers . Power amplifiers provide the output power required in Lo Band ( 2.4 GHz ) and Hi Band ( 5.25 ~ 5.35 , 5.47 ~ 5.725 GHz ). 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 Lo band RF connector for 2.400 ~ 2.483 GHz and Hi Band RF connector for 5.25 ~ 5.35 , 5.47 ~ 5.725 GHz , through the Transmit Receive Switches to the receiver Band Pass Filters and Low Noise pre Amplifiers . 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 .
