STEP 3. TEST RADIOS BACK-TO-BACK
Before installing the radios, Proxim recommends a back-to-back test of the radio pair. Back-to-back testing is a
simple way to verify that the radios are fully operational before they are installed. The process of installation
adds several variables that can lead to system turn-up delays during troubleshooting (such as antenna
alignment, cabling, and path dynamics). By pre-testing the radios, you reduce the chance of the radios being
the cause of system turn-up problems, and you can focus on other factors, such as the transmission line,
antenna alignment, and path clearance.
Note:
Back-to-back testing must be performed to verify a radio problem before returning any radio to the
factory for repair.
