Preface Preface This manual covers the basic configuration and installation of the M5580M-FSU Wireless Point to Point Subscriber Unit. The M5580M-FSU consists of a radio with an internal 8 dBi. The M5580M-FSU may be used in conjunction with an optional FCC certified external reflector dish for extended transmission range. When using the reflector dish, professional installation is required. Contact your sales person for more information regarding the “Professional Installation Guide.”

Overview Chapter 1 Overview Each M5580M-FSU acts as an endpoint in a point to multipoint wireless Ethernet transmission system, which provides network connectivity at, speeds up to 45 Mbps depending on the transmission distance, noise floor, and the antenna configuration. The M5580M-FSU uses either CCK or OFDM technology coupled with Automatic Repeat request (ARQ) for improved resistance to interference and noise. The M5580M-FSU product is comprised of the following items: 1) M5580

Overview Location of RJ-45/LED Port The RJ-45 connector, diagnostic LEDs, and reset button are located at the bottom of the radio. Functionality of the LEDs is described later in this text. The reset button, resets all configuration settings (including IP address and password) back to factory default. Hold the reset button down for 5 seconds (until amber lights flash) while unit is powered on. Figure 6 Reset Button Trango Broadband Wire

Getting Started Chapter 2 Getting Started It is recommended that you first provision and test your the radios on the bench before deploying them in the field. This is a particularly useful exercise for the novice user. Connections and Power • Connect a Cat-5 (straight through) Ethernet cable (we recommend shielded twisted pair) between the ODU (out door unit) port of the J-box and the RJ-45 connector on the radio. Note that this cable will carry power-over-Ethernet (PoE). • If

Getting Started Configuration Tools M5580M-FSU radios can be configured using either the Command Line Interface (CLI), or the Web Browser (HTTP) interface. Although both methods are comprehensive and powerful, the CLI method provides slightly more functionality. This text covers configuration through the CLI. For HTTP configuration please see Chapter 4 on page 18. Telnet Open a command prompt (DOS) session on your PC. Next, open a Telnet session by typing: telnet

Configuration Chapter 3 Configuration Key Concepts Prior to configuring the radios, it is important to understand several key concepts: Access Point (AP) The AP is typically considered the primary radio within the link. It is recommended to install the AP closest to the head-end of the network. Subscriber Unit (SU) The SU is typically installed at the customer premise. The primary distinction between the AP and SU is that when the radios are not associated, the AP will tra
