Attribute Meaning
Link Mode • Multipoint: Select this option to configure the device as a multipoint SM.
• Backhaul: Select this option to configure the device as a Backhaul.
Timing Mode • Timing Master: Select this option when Link Mode parameter is set to
Backhaul.
•

Multipoint.
Link Speed From the drop-down list of options, select the type of link speed for the
Ethernet connection. The default for this parameter is that all speeds are
selected. The recommended setting is a single speed selection for all APs
and SMs in the operator network.
Ethernet Link
Enabled/Disabled
Specify whether to enable or disable Ethernet/802.3 connectivity on the
wired port of the SM. This parameter has no effect on the wireless link. When
you select Enable, this feature allows traffic on the Ethernet/802.3 port. This
is the factory default state of the port. When you select Disable, this feature
prevents traffic on the port. Typical cases of when you may want to select
Disable include:
The subscriber is delinquent with payment(s).
You suspect that the subscriber is sending or flooding undesired broadcast
packets into the network, such as when
•
a virus is present in the subscriber’s computing device.
• the subscriber’s home router is improperly configured.
Region This parameter allows you to set the region in which the radio will operate.
The SM radio automatically inherits the Region type of the master. This
behavior ignores the value of the Region parameter in the SM, even when
the value is None. Nevertheless, since future system software releases may
read the value in order to configure some other region-sensitive feature(s),
this parameter must be always set to the value that corresponds to the local
region.
Country This parameter allows you to set the country in which the radio will operate.
The SM radio automatically inherits the Country Code type of the master.
This behavior ignores the value of the Country parameter in the SM, even
when the value is None. Nevertheless, since future system software releases
may read the value in order to configure some other region-sensitive
feature(s), this parameter must be always set to the value that corresponds
to the local region.
PMP/PTP 450i Series ODU shipped to the United States is locked to a
Region Code setting of “United States”. Units shipped to regions other than
the United States must be configured with the corresponding Region Code
to comply with local regulatory requirements.
