Malibu Networks AirMAX“ CPE/BTS
•
Ensure antennas between communicating AirMAX
systems are within a 12.4 mile range (20Km). You
can have up to 100 subscribers per CPE and up to
100 CPEs per sector (with 500 subscribers per
sector).
•
Ensure that the overall Ethernet cabling between the
ODU, Power Injector, and customer LAN connection
(router/switch/etc.) is less than 300 feet total. If you
need a longer distance, you can insert signal
conditioning equipment between the Power Injector
and customer equipment. The PoE cables supplied
by Malibu are from 25 feet to 250 feet in length.
Caution:
when making actual cable connections at the
time of installation, do not confuse the ethernet cable from
the customer s LAN to the Power Injector which is data
only and does not have power and the PoE Ethernet
cable that runs between the ODU and Power Injector
which does have power. These connections are made at
the Power Injector, which has two RJ45 connectors, and it
is possible to plug in the wrong cable and damage
equipment. Always check which cable you re plugging in
when making Ethernet connections to the Power Injector.
The correct Power Injector Ethernet connections are shown
later in this Chapter. This manual illustrates the
connections as the procedures are given.
•
Ensure the workers installing the ODU and antennas
are experienced installation professionals familiar
with all local building codes and safety regulations,
and who are licensed for the type of work being
performed.
