management agent, multiple databases, web server, CLI, logging and other system services. The other
SoC is a WiMAX baseband processor. Together these perform network processing, MAC and PHY tasks.
The Network Processor connects to the external backhaul through a pair of gigabit Ethernet ports and to
the Modem through two 100
100/1000MB
MB Gigabit Ethernet ports. These ports carry a mix of traffic and
management/control messages. Various protocols carried over the two Ethernets link the applications,
including TCP/IP, UDP and custom Ethernet frames.

Power

The Base Station DC power requirements is such that the external DC source needs to be capable of
delivering up to 4 Amps of current at -48 VDC. The Base Station nominally runs at approx 2 Amps at 48VDC (range -40VDC
40VDC to -57VDC, -38VDC
-38VDC min).
The power connector that is used on the Base Station will accommodate 14 to 18 gauge wire. Remember
ember
to take account of the voltage drop when running long power cable runs. For example, for 18 AWG, for a
cable length of 100
00 feet, a nominal 48VDC supply delivering into a 2A
A load will lead to a voltage drop of
2.7 volts. This power connector (Tyco P/N 796094
796094-2)
2) is provided as part of the Installation kit (figure 13).
Please ensure that the DC power source is powered off and solder the -48
48 VDC wires to connector pins 1
and 2.. Solder the 48 VDC Return wires to pins 3 and 4 (figures 1 to 14).

recommended to use any high
high-performance,
performance, lowlow-loss

CA3N100 or Times Microwave LMR 400).The order of antenna connections is unimportant.
The important consideration is the length of the
the co
co-axial
axial cable as this will affect the amount of signal loss
and thus effective range of the system. In the case that the Base Station unit is installed outdoors and
close to the antenna, then the co

minimized. If the
Base Station unit is installed indoors with long cable runs up the tower to the antennas then the amount of
signal loss will need to be calculated to ensure that adequate range will still be achieved. As an example,
a Times Microwave LMR400 cable has an attenuation loss of 6.8dB per 100 feet at a frequency of
2.5GHz.

Grounding and Lightning Requirements

Proper lightning protection requires the use of external primary protectors to complement the secondary
protection built into the PureWave equipment.
equipment. The primary protectors offer the surge currents a direct
path to earth ground versus the undesirable sneak paths it may find through the equipment.
Properly installed and grounded primary protectors will dramatically increase the surge withstanding
capabilities of the PureWave equipment. Surges that exceed the maximum ratings of the primary
protector devices will eventually cause them to fail, however these devices are generally designed to fail
short or open, as the application warrants, such that further surges will not damage the end equipment.
While a failed primary protector still results in a service outage, it does prevent further damage to the
more expensive end equipment.
A Base Station that is installed outdoor on the tower or mast (ODU) is especially vulnerable to lightning
surges. Good surge mitigation practice starts with the lightning rod and its connection to a proper sized
down conductor.
The ground down conductor should be as straight as possible and avoid incidental contact with other
other
conductors such that it represents the path of least resistance to earth ground from the lightning rod. The
tower/mast is also earth grounded to keep its conductive elements at earth potential (0V) for personnel
safety, and generally presents a less desirable
desirable path to ground to surge currents. ODU equipment and
external primary protection devices are mounted to the tower/mast and should be bonded to earth ground
at the same point on the down conductor. This practice is intended to avoid ground loop currents
currents that may
flow from differences in potential between the tower/mast structure and down conductor while large surge
currents are flowing in them respectively. Good surge mitigation practice also makes use of shielded
cables with peripheral shield grounding
grounding to minimize potentials induced on circuit conductors.
These cables should also be secured to the tower/mast at regular intervals to create physical separation
from conductors which are carrying surge currents. This practice avoids incidental contact or
or possible
insulation breakdown from high surge potentials.
A Base Station that is installed indoor units (IDU) requires similar protection as the outdoor installation
(ODU). Primary protection devices are installed on all cables just prior to entry of the
the facility and bonded
to an earth ground stake. Likewise, the cable shields are grounded at the entry panel which should be
bonded to the same earth ground stake.
IDU equipment may also be vulnerable to surges entering via the AC power connection and steps
steps should
be taken to install a proper AC Surge Suppressor device to complete a well protected installation.

3.1

Lightning Protection Installation Components

The following are considered to be the main elements that constitute the components of a lightning
protection
otection scheme.

Figure 30,, demonstrates graphically how these elements are applied to an overall lightning design.
Please note that this is ssimply
imply a generic diagram and that each individual installation may have its own
specific requirements which may differ from the diagram. The key point to note is the overall concept.
The main items will be outlined in more detail in the following sections.

Figure 48 - A Typical
ypical Lightning Protection Design

3.2

Lightning Rod

The Lightning Rod must be welded to the mast structure and to a down conductor. This should be
constructed of a steel pointed tip and is in general installed at the highest point of the tower. It operates to
intercept the downward moving lightning strike by launching an upward going attachment spark. Once the
attachment is achieved, the bulk of the lightning current follows the ionized path. In this way, the lightning
lightning
rod diverts the lightning away from equipment on the tower.
If the lightning rod is not installed at the highest point on the tower, the equipment that is connected to the
highest point (usually a radio) is the most likely attachment point.
A Class
lass I lightning rod (air terminal) is 3/8-inch
3/8 inch copper or 1/2
1/2-inch
inch aluminum, while Class II calls for 1/21/2
inch copper or 5/8-inch
5/8 inch aluminum. Conductor sizes vary accordingly, also depending on their composition
(stranded or strips) and materials (aluminum o
orr copper). Since most soils contain acid or alkaloid
compounds that react with aluminum, any aluminum used must not come in contact with the soil.
Lightning rods (air terminals) 24 inches or higher should be used.

Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide

Rev 1.2,
1. Page 38 of 146

Referring to figure 30 above, the Height Above Antenna above the highest item of equipment (generally
the antenna) must be at least twice the distance (2 x d) between the outer surface of the item and the
tower. This will ensure a protection cone of 60 degrees around the tower (30 degrees each
each side from
the lightning rod). In areas of high lightning activity, the Height Above Antenna should be increased to
up 5 times the distance.

3.3

Down Conductor

The purpose of the Down conductor is to provide the shortest and most direct path to the earth. The
grounding of the down conductor to earth must be of ground resistance no more than 1 ohm.

3.4

Co axial and/or Cat 5 Cable Shield Grounding


Co-axial

The purpose of the Shield grounding is to minimize the potentials induced on circuit conductors plus keep
the cable
e shields at earth potential (0V) for personnel safety.
All ground lugs must be properly bonded to the grounding system of the protected components along with
all Antenna cables. Prior to entry into any facility, the cables must be properly grounded to the
the building
primary ground system at the building entrance panel.
In case of an indoor installed Base Station then this will apply to the co
co-axial
axial cables that connect the Base
Station to the Antenna. This is because these coco-axial
axial cables provide the only inter-connection
connection between
the indoor and the outdoor.
In the case of an outdoor installed Base Station, then this will apply to the Cat 5 cable and power
connection to the Base Station. In the case of an installation of the Base Station, it is the Cat 5 cable
cable and
the power that provide the inter
inter-connections
connections between the indoor and the outdoor.

3.5

Grounding and Bonding

The National Electric Code requires that any accessible metallic surface of electronic equipment be
connected to earth ground for personnel safety.
safety. Earth ground connections are achieved by direct
connections to the AC power ground at the IDU and by a grounding lug on the ODU. A Craftsperson must
attach a proper size wire to the ODU ground lug during installation or else the ODU chassis will float
float at
whatever potential appears at the shield connection of the coax.

3.6

Recommended Connection of a Bonded Ground

We will now examine the concept of a bonded ground. Bonded connections for reliable, gas tight joints
between conductors require removal of all

Single Point Grounding Concept

Extensive analysis and investigation of installations has led to the belief that the root cause at the heart of
the majority of the failures is likely to be the presence of mult
multi--point
point grounding of equipment on the towers
and in the huts. Single point grounding these elements will eliminate ground voltage differentials and this
will dramatically increase the equipment survivability during surges.
Single point grounding requires that the grounding leads from the antenna, Base Station and Surge
Protection devices for a particular sector, are bonded together at the same point on the tower down
conductor. It is not necessary to bond all the sectors together but to ensure the components
componen of any
individual sector have the same ground point on the tower.
In the equipment hut, in the event of an indoor installation of the Base Station then the chassis ground of
the Base Station and all the Surge Protection Devices grounds must be grounded
grounded at the same point (see
figure 31).

Actual installation will depend upon the tower specifics. General tower installation practices would have a
large ground bar or plate just at the cable entrance to the building and the Surge Protectors would be
either attached directly or via the ground wire to this plate/bar. Alternatively the Surge Protectors can be
directly attached to the Base Station and then appropriate ground connections can be made.
In the event that the Base Station Radio is installed outside then it is recommended to install the surge
protection unit(s) between the Base Station and the Antenna.

material is applied to all outdoor installed elements of the system. Weatherproofing tape kits flawlessly
seals the junction between
between two connectors. It not only protects the connection from water damage, it also
prevents vibrations from loosening the interface.

applications. As it can be seen in the diagram below, the structure of a
Client Profile is based on a building block approach. The bottom level of the structure is formed
from: packet flow direction, QoS, ARQ/HARQ, and classifier profiles. One building block up from

Each service flow then takes on a specific form that applies to the intended application. A
supported application is, normally, comprised of two service flows; one uplink service flow and

Providing restricted data rates is an important aspect of the QoS functions in an application. At
the base level the QoS profile sets the maxim
maximum
um or minimum sustained or reserved rate
respectively. The best effort QoS type provides an up
up-to
to or MIR (Maximum Information Rate);
while UGS or eRTPS provides a CIR (Committed Information Rate). This is not the only method
of rate limiting available in a client profile. A user has the ability to set a MIR and CIR in the client
profile configuration separately from the QoS profile. This function has been provided in order for
a network operator to specify several different service flows with varying QoS levels while
maintaining a per client profile minimum or maximum. It must be noted that between the QoS
and client profile rate limiting, the lower of the two rates will be enforced by the system.
Prioritizing data traffic is another key element in mainta
maintaining
ining reliable data rates to critical
applications. Throughout the client profile building block structure are various levels of
prioritization. The user has the ability set priorities at the QoS, classifier and client profile levels.
Classifier priorities provide the ability to prioritize traffic within the client profile of a single CPE
and between its service flows. At the client profile level the user can prioritize service levels or
groups of CPE.

6.1.2 Service Flows


Each client profile supports up to 16 unidirectional service flows each with a specific direction,
QoS profile,
profile, ARQ/HARQ profile and classifier profile. A service flow is a packet flow that conforms
to a set of QoS settings. This provides a mechanism for prioritizing and shaping traffic to satisfy
the needs of different applications, i.e VoIP, video streaming, an
and
d etc.

Direction
Direction specifies whether the flow of packets is traveling from the BS to MS (downlink) or from MS to BS
(uplink).

QoS_Profiles
A QoS profile enforces an over-the-air
over
air service type that provides rate limiting and link
prioritization that can enhance the performance of specific applications. VoIP, for example,
requires a small de
dedicated
dicated amount of traffic with low latency to provide a good user experience. A
properly configured QoS profile will provide the required level of service for any application. One
QoS profile is assigned to each service flow that is used by the subscriber station.

Administration and Operation Via Web Interface


Administration and operation pertain to loggin
logging,
g, CPE provisioning, configuration file
control and reset functions.

8.1.1 CPE Provisioning


A database of Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) is stored locally on the base station.
This database is used to assign a specific client profile (service level) to each CPE.
CPE. As a
CPE is attempting to perform network entry to the base station, the MAC of the CPE is
compared against this database. If a matching entry exists, then the CPE is assigned the
configured client profile and the CPE is allowed to pass traffic. If a matching
matching entry does
not exist, then one of two things can happen. In the first scenario, the CPE will be given
a default client profile if default provisioning is enabled. Otherwise, with default
provisioning disabled, the CPE will fail to enter the netwo
network
rk and not be allowed to pass
traffic.
8.1.2 Logging
The logging section pertains to syslog notification levels and file access control. The base
station contains its own internal syslog server that gathers all statistics about the
function of the base station. An external syslog server may be configured for syslog
capture and viewing external to the base station. Individual log files are also available
for upload to an external PC for advanced troubleshooting.

Force Log File Rotation


Log files will grow in file size the longer a base station is running. The base station will perform a
log file rotation periodically that compresses the existing log file and renames it. Doing this
prevents any log file from growing
growing too large if many system messages are being generated. This
function allows the user to manually force this process to occur.

8.1.3 Configuration
Configuration pertains to the management of the Base Stations configuration database. The
base station configuration database is stored internally in a running configuration and a start-up
start
configuration. A running configuration is the currently active configuration for the base station as
opposed to the start
start-up
up configuration which only pertains to the configuration of the base station
when it initially boots up. Any changes made to the running config will not be persistent across a
system reboot unless the running config is copied over to tthe
he start-up

level configuration databases are internal to the base station and cannot be deleted or moved,
however, the user can export portions or the entire configuration into external files that can be
transferred to a PC for backup
backup or editing purposes. This section will detail all the operations the
user has to manipulate the configuration database.
At the top level of the Configuration menu is a status page that displays the current operational

Software Upgrade Via Web Interface


Upgrading firmware on the PureWave Quantum base station is a streamlined process that
requires only one click to perform. By simply providing access to the image via FTP or HTTP the
entire upgrade process will be handled automatically. Transfer of the image, writing of the flash
partition and base station reboot are all part of the automatic upgrade process.
An addition feature has been added that also allows the firmware image to be upgraded in two
parts. This allows for the firmware to be staged prior to the actual upgrade
upgrade process. A user can
prepare for the upgrade during the day or night before the actual cut-over
cut over and can simply execute
the transition during a scheduled maintenance window early in the morning. This reduces the
overall time spent performing the upgrade d
during
uring the early hours of the day.

Appendix A
CLI Overview
The Fiji Base station provides a Cisco like CLI that can be accessed via the serial console connection or a user
initiated Secure-Socket-Shell
Secure
Shell (SSH) session.
When you log in to the CLI, you are in user EXEC mode. User EX
EXEC
EC mode contains only a limited subset of
commands. To have access to all commands, you must enter privileged EXEC mode, normally by using a password.
From privileged EXEC mode you can issue any EXEC command
commanduser
user or privileged modeor
mode or you can enter global
configuration mode. Most EXEC commands are one-time
one time commands. For example, show commands show
important status information, and clear commands clear counters or interfaces. The EXEC commands are not
saved when the software reboots.
Configuration modes allo
allow
w you to make changes to the running configuration. If you later save the running
configuration to the startup configuration, these changed commands are stored when the software is rebooted. To
enter specific configuration modes, you must start at global cconfiguration
onfiguration mode. From global configuration mode,
you can enter interface configuration mode and a variety of other modes, such as protocol-specific
protocol specific modes.
For simplicity and readability, the following sections will list Operational CLI commands (User/Privileged
(User/Privileged EXEC
mode commands) and Configuration CLI commands (Configuration mode commands). The prompt device-name#
device name#
indicates CLI is in operational mode. When moving from operational mode to configuration mode, command

9.11 SNMP SERVER CLI COMMANDS


9.11.1 SNMP Server Security Background
9.11.1.1

SNMPv3

SNMPv3 provides secure access to devices by a combination of authenticating and


encrypting frames over the network. The security features provided in SNMPv3 are the
following:

Message integrity
integrityEnsures
Ensures that a packet has not been tampered with in-transit.
in

Authentication
AuthenticationDetermines
Determines the message is from a valid source.

Encryption
EncryptionScrambles
Scrambles the packet contents to prevent it from being seen by
unauthorized sources.
SNMPv3 provides for both security models and security levels. A security model is an
authentication strategy that is set up for a user and the role in which the user resides. A
authentication
security level is the permitted level of security within a security model. A combination of
a security model and a security level determines which security mechanism is employed
when handling an SNMP packet.
9.11.1.2

Security Models and Levels for SNMPv1, v2, v3

The security level determines if an SNMP message needs to be protected from disclosure
and if the message needs to be authenticated. The various security levels that exist within
a security model are as follows:

Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide

Rev 1.2

noAuthNoPriv
noAuthNoPrivSecurity
Security level that does not provide authentication or encryption.

authNoPriv
authNoPrivSecurity
Security level that provides authentication but does not provide
encryption.

authPriv

ides both authentication and encryption.

Three security models are available: SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3. The security
model combined with the security level determine the security mechanism applied when
the SNMP message is processed.

Set security parameters on a per
per-user
user basis for SNMP v3 access. Currently the only user
permitted here is "admin". The hash algorithm specified is used both to
to create digests of
the authentication and privacy passwords for storage in configuration, and also in HMAC
form for the authentication protocol itself.
If the command ends after the auth password, the privacy algorithm is set to its default,
which is AES
AES-128,
128, and the privacy password is set to the same as whatever was
specified for the authentication password. You may also specify the privacy algorithm
while still not specifying a separate password.
There are three variants of the command, which branch out
out after the "v3" keyword. If
"auth" is the next word, the passwords are specified in plaintext on the command line. If
"encrypted" is the next word, the passwords are specified encrypted (hashed) on the
command line. If "prompt-pass"
"prompt pass" is the next word, tthe
he passwords are not specified on the
command line: the user is prompted for them while the command is executing. If "priv" is
not specified, only the auth password is prompted for. If "priv" is specified, the privacy
password is prompted for; entering a
an
n empty string for this prompt will result in using the
same password as specified for authentication.

9.11.3.18

Ethernet Cat 5 Cable

Identifying the RJ-45


RJ 45 Cable Type
To identify the RJ-45
RJ 45 cable type, hold the two ends of the cable next to each other so you can see the
colored wires inside the ends, as shown. In a straight
straight-through
through cable, the colored wires are in the same
sequence at both ends of the cable.

When making a straight


straight-through
through cable using Cat 5E, it is mandatory tha
thatt you follow the 568-B
568 B standard
shown below. Otherwise, you risk the possibility of damaging the equipment.

Per Sector Throughput Tables by Channel Size and DL/UL Frame Ratio
We present here a set of tables specifying the raw (MAC
(MAC-layer)
layer) throughput of a PureWave Quantum
Family base station for 5 and 10MHz, under ideal conditions, corresponding to the maximum achievable
performance that can be achieved using IEEE 802.16e per channel bandwidth and TDD configuration
ratio.
All results assume PUSC, a MAP size of 4 symbols, and 1 pr
preamble
eamble symbol. The numbers represent the
maximum MAC layer performance using all sub-channels
sub channels and exclude Ethernet Layer 2 or higher layer
overheads.
Note that these results are specific to the stated configuration under ideal conditions and should be
considered
nsidered indicative of expected results. Actual results will vary depending upon the actual
configuration, error rate, environment, and numerous other factors.
