Chapter 5: Generic Installation Procedures
This chapter describes generic installation procedures of PTP 820C product. This chapter consists of the following
sections:
• General Notes Concerning All Installation Procedures
• Torque Requirements
• PTP 820C DC Pole Mount Procedure
• Remote Mount Installation for Single Polarization with an Remote Mount kit
phn-3962 005v000
Page 5-1
Chapter 5: Generic Installation Procedures General Notes Concerning All Installation Procedures
Since the PTP 820C architecture is of a Dual Core nature, each dual core configuration can be considered as single
core configuration hardware ready for its dual core counterpart. Therefore, you must follow the same procedure
for 2+0 SP installation, if you want to install a 1+0 SP HW ready for 2+0 SP.
One of the major benefits of the PTP 820C and the dual core architecture is that upgrading can be done remotely
by uploading the correct software license.
Before starting an installation, use a leveler to make sure that the poles are 100% vertical. You need to check both
sides of each pole at 90 degrees separation. This is a critical step in any link but most important when installing
MIMO or XPIC
Note
Do not remove the transparent pressure windows located on the antenna interfaces.

Page 5-2
Chapter 5: Generic Installation Procedures Torque Requirements
Torque Requirements
When tightening the captive screws, use 20 Nm torque for radio-antenna, radio-mediation device, and mediation
device-antenna connections. In order to avoid misalignment, screws should be tightened progressively.
When fastening a waveguide to the radio or mediation device, use the following torque, according to frequency
and screw type:
• 6 GHz: M5/#10-32: 3.5 Nm
• 7/8-15 GHz: M4/#8-32: 2.5 Nm
• 18-42 GHz: M3/#4-40: 1Nm

Chapter 5: Generic Installation Procedures Management Connection for MIMO and Protection
Configurations
In MIMO and all HSB protection configurations, a special signaling cable must be used to connect the management
ports (MGT/PROT) of the two PTP 820C units.
When Out-of-Band management is used, a splitter must be used to connect the management ports to local
management and to each other.
The MIMO/Protection signaling cables are available pre-assembled from Cambium Networks in various lengths
(see Cables for MIMO Connections on page 3-13), but you can also prepare them in the field.
The following sections explain how to prepare and connect these cables.

Chapter 5: Generic Installation Procedures Management Connection for MIMO and Protection
Configurations
• System plug (“Sys”) – The system plug must be connected to the PTP 820C’s management port.
• Management port (“Mng”) – A standard CAT5E cable must be connected to the splitter’s management port in
order to utilize out-of-band (external) management.
• MIMO/Protection signaling port (“MIMO/Prot”) – A standard CAT5E cable or a MIMO/Protection signaling
cable must be connected between this port and the other “MIMO/Prot” port of the second splitter on the
mate PTP 820C unit.

Chapter 6: Installation Procedures per Configuration Type AFR 1+0 Hub Site
In an AFR 1+0 configuration, a Multicore PTP 820C unit is deployed at the hub site and two PTP 820C or PTP 820S
units are deployed in two tail sites.
The hub site utilizes a single PTP 820C unit with two radio carriers. Each carrier is in a link, via its own directional
antenna, with a tail site that consists of a PTP 820C or PTP 820S unit.
Note
The links should be located so as to ensure that the two radio paths do not cross.
The tail site unit is installed as a simple 1+0 configuration.
The hub site unit is installed as a remote mount configuration in which two flexible waveguides are used to
connect the two Remote Mount Adaptor ports to an antenna. This chapter describes a hub site installation.
For standard interface antennas (six feet and larger), no OMT and no Circ./Circ. Adaptor are used, and the flexible
waveguides are connected directly to the antenna flanges. For instructions how to connect the waveguides to the
antenna flanges, refer to the antenna vendor's documentation.

Chapter 8: Acceptance & Commissioning Procedures Site Acceptance Checklist Notes
The following notes provide important additional information about the Site Acceptance Checklist.
1. Antenna Mounting
o Mounting pole is of sufficient height to clear local obstructions, such as parapets, window cleaning
gantries, and lift housings.
o Mounting Pole is of sufficient height, and is safely positioned, so as not to cause a safety hazard. No
person should be able to walk in front of, or look directly into the path of the microwave radio beam.
Where possible, the pole should be away from the edge of the building.
o Mounting pole is secure and perpendicular. A pole that is not perpendicular may cause problems during
antenna alignment.
o Mounting pole is grounded as per site specifications. All operators and site owners have specific
requirements regarding the grounding of installations. As a minimum, typical requirements are such that
any metal structure must be connected to the existing lightning protection ground of the building. Where
it extends beyond the 45-degree cone of protection of existing lightning conductors, additional lightning
protectors should be installed.
o All steelwork is Galvanized or Stainless Steel, as appropriate to prevent corrosion.
2. Antenna
o Antenna is grounded as per site specifications. See the third point in the Antenna Mounting section
above.
o Antenna sway braces are fitted and installed correctly, where applicable. Typically, for an antenna of 1.2
m or larger, an extra sway brace is fitted to the mounting frame of the antenna. This sway brace should
not be mounted to the same pole as the antenna, but should be installed directly back to the tower or an
alternative point.
o Antenna Water Drain Plugs are fitted and removed, where appropriate. Some antennas have moisture
drain plugs installed at various points around the antenna. The purpose of these plugs is to allow any
moisture that forms on the inside of the antenna or radome to drip out and prevent a pool within the
antenna. Only the plugs at the bottom of the antenna, after installation, should be removed. All other
plugs should be left in position.
3. ODU (Outdoor Unit)
o The ODU is grounded as per installation instructions. See the third point in the Antenna Mounting section
above.
o The ODU polarization is as per link requirements and matches the polarization of the antenna.
o The main traffic connections are correctly terminated and crimped as per cable and connector
manufacturer instructions. All fiber optic patch leads should be routed carefully and efficiently, using
conduits to prevent damage to the cables.
o All other user terminations are secure and correctly terminated.
o All labeling is complete as per site requirements. Labeling is specific to each customer. At a site with only
one installation, labeling may be unnecessary. However, at sites with multiple installations, correct and
adequate labeling is essential for future maintenance operations.
Typical labeling requirements include:
• Antenna labels - for link identity and bearing
• ODU labels - for link identity, frequency, and polarization
• Cat5/Fiber cable labels - for link identity, close to the ODU, switch, and either end of any joint

Chapter 8: Acceptance & Commissioning Procedures Radio Link Commissioning Procedure
Scope
This section describes the recommended commissioning tests for PTP 820 radio link in a 1+0 configuration.
The purpose of the commissioning tests is to verify correct and proper operation of the product.
Commissioning Test
The following tests should be performed on each installed link.
Link Verification
• Received Signal Level (RSL) is up to +/- 4 dB from the expected (calculated) level at both ends of the link. 1
0F
Interoperability Verification
• Connect customer end equipment to the line interfaces, and verify correct operation.
• Further interoperability tests should be performed in accordance with the specific requirements of the
connected end equipment.
1 The voltage at the BNC port is 1.XX where XX is the RSL level. For example: 1.59V means an RSL of -59
dBm. Note that the voltage measured at the BNC port is not accurate and should be used only as an aid).

Chapter 8: Acceptance & Commissioning Procedures Radio Link Commissioning Procedure
Management Verification
• Launch the HTTP management and verify that you can manage the link and that you are able to perform
changes to the link configuration (frequency channel, Tx power, system name, time & date, etc.)
• Verify that correct parameters are reported when performing the above.
• Verify that there are no active alarms on the link.
• If the management station is located at a remote site (Network Operation Center), verify that the
management station can manage the link and receive traps.
