3.1 Powering On the Equipment

By checking the process of powering on equipment, you can check whether the hardware system
of the equipment and the power system are normal.
Prerequisite
l The hardware installation must be complete, and it should pass the installation check.
l The power supply must be available, and the fuse capacity of the power supply must meet
the requirements.
In the case of the IDU 605, it is recommended that you use a 4 A fuse for the - 48 V/- 60

l The power switch on the power box (or power cabinet) must be turned off.
Tools, Equipment, and Materials

Multimeter
Precautions
CAUTION
On the front panel of the IDU 605 2B, the switches marked "ODU-S" and "ODU-M" are equipped
with locking devices. Hence, you must pull out the switch gently before you turn it. If the switch
points to "0", you can infer that the switch is off. If the switch points to "I", you can infer that it
is on.
Procedure
Step 1 Set the POWER switch on the front panel of the IDU 605 to "0".
Step 2 If the IDU 605 2B/2F is used, you should set the ODU-S and ODU-M switches on the front
panel of the IDU to "0".
Step 3 Turn on the power switch on the power box (or power cabinet).
Step 4 Connect a multimeter to the power supply (for example, the output terminal of the cabinet power
box) to test the voltage and polarity of the input power.
l When the nominal voltage of the input power is -48 V, the tested voltage should be between
-38.4 V and -57.6 V.
l When the nominal voltage of the input power is -60 V, the tested voltage should be between
-48 V and -72 V.

WARNING
When the test value of the voltage is not within the range, first rectify the fault of the power
equipment. The abnormal voltage can cause damage to the equipment, even personal injury.
Step 5 Set the POWER switch on the front panel of the IDU 605 to "I".
Step 6 Observe the indicators on the front panel of the IDU 605.
Front panel indicators should comply with the following statuses and sequences.
1. The PWR indicator on the front panel of the IDU 605 should be green.
2. The IDU indicator on the front panel of the IDU 605 should be green, flash green, and off.
The process lasts about two minutes. Then, the IDU indicator should be constantly on. If
the green indicator is constantly on, you can infer that no alarm is generated. If the yellow
indicator is constantly on, you can infer that a minor alarm or a warning arises. If the red
indicator is constantly on, you can infer that a major alarm or a critical alarm arises.
NOTE
For details about the indicators on the front panel, refer to the OptiX RTN 600 Radio Transmission System
IDU 605 Hardware Description.
Step 7 If the IDU 605 2B/2F is used, you should set the ODU-S and ODU-M switches on the front
panel of the IDU to "I".

4 HOP Commissioning Guide IDU 605 Commissioning Guide
4.1 Aligning the Antennas

Aligning the antennas is the most important activity in the HOP commissioning, and its result
has a direct effect on the performance of the radio link.
4.1.1 Main Lobe and Side Lobe
Before you align the antenna, you should learn the related knowledge of the main lobe and side
lobe.
4.1.2 Aligning the Single-Polarized Antennas
When you align the single-polarized antennas, you need to align the main lobes of the antenna
by adjusting the azimuth and elevation of the antennas at both ends.
4.1.1 Main Lobe and Side Lobe

Before you align the antenna, you should learn the related knowledge of the main lobe and side
lobe.
Definitions of the Main Lobe and Side Lobe

The electric field strength of the radiated power of the antenna varies in space. The differences
of the power distribution can be shown in an azimuth diagram. Generally, there are the horizontal
azimuth diagram for the horizontal section and the vertical azimuth diagram for the vertical
section. Figure 4-1 is a vertical azimuth diagram. There are many lobes in this figure. The lobe
with the strongest radiated power is the main lobe. The other lobes are side lobes wherein the
first side lobe can affect the antenna alignment.
Figure 4-1 Main lobe and side lobe
Main lobe
First side lobe
Second side lobe
Locating the Main Lobe

The antenna alignment involves making the main lobe of the local antenna aligned with the main
lobe of the opposite antenna. The purpose is to make the received signal strength of the opposite
antenna reach the maximum value.
The main lobe width of the microwave antenna is narrow, that is, between 0.6° and 3.7° generally.
For instance, in the case of a 1.2 m antenna at the working frequency of 23 GHz, the azimuth is
only 0.9° when the signal level drops from the signal peak to zero. Once a signal is detected,
very small alignment adjustments are required to locate the main lobe.
Antenna movement across the main lobe will result in a rapid rise and fall of signal level. Whether
the main lobe is aligned properly can be verified by comparing the received signal peaks.
Typically, the main lobe signal peak is 20-25 dB higher than the first side lobe signal peak.

Figure 4-2 shows the head-on view of a free-space model for radio propagation. The side lobes
take the main lobe as the center and are distributed in the radiate form.

Tracking Path
Side lobe signal readings can be mistaken for main lobe readings when signals are tracked at
different elevations (or azimuths). Figure 4-3 shows a horizontal radio propagation model of
the antenna, and signal levels at three different elevation positions ("1-7" represent the measured
signal level values of the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) port of the ODU.)

l Line AA' represents that the main lobe of the antenna is almost aligned properly. The main
lobe is at point 2, and the first side lobes are at points 1 and 3. Slightly adjust the azimuth
of the antenna at point 2 until the peak signal appears.
l Line BB' represents that the elevation of the antenna slightly deviates from the main lobe.
The signal peaks appear at points 4 and 5. The signal peak at point 4 is higher than the
signal peak at point 5 because of the antenna characteristics. As a result, point 4 may be
mistaken for the peak point of the main lobe signal. The correct method is to set the azimuth
of the antenna to the middle position between the two signal peaks. Then, adjust the
elevation of the antenna until the three signal peaks of line AA' appear. Slightly adjust the
elevation and azimuth of the antenna at point 2 until the peak signal appears.
l Line CC' represents that the elevation of the antenna completely deviates from the main
lobe and is almost aligned with the first side lobe. The signal peak of the first side lobe at
point 6 and the signal peak of the first side lobe at point 7 appear as one signal peak. As a
result, points 6 and 7 may be mistaken for the peak point of the main lobe signal. The correct
method is to set the azimuth of the antenna to the middle of points 6 and 7. Then, adjust
the elevation of the antenna until the three signal peaks of line AA' appear. Slightly adjust
the elevation and azimuth of the antenna at point 2 until the peak signal appears.
When the side lobe peak at one side is higher than the side lobe peak at the other side, as shown
in Figure 4-4, a common error is to move the antenna left to right along line DD', or top to
bottom along line EE'. As a result, point 1 may be mistaken for the peak point of the main lobe
signal. The correct method is to adjust the elevation in the middle of points 1 and 2 or the azimuth
in the middle of points 1 and 3. Several adjustments are required so that the three signal peaks
of line AA' can appear. Slightly adjust the elevation and azimuth of the antenna at point 2 as
shown in Figure 4-3 until the peak signal appears.

4.1.2 Aligning the Single-Polarized Antennas

When you align the single-polarized antennas, you need to align the main lobes of the antenna
by adjusting the azimuth and elevation of the antennas at both ends.
Prerequisite
l The NE commissioning of the radio equipment at both ends of the radio link must be
complete.

l The weather should be suitable for outdoor work. There should be no rain, snow, or fog
between stations.
l The on-site conditions must meet the requirements for the antenna to operate at heights and
the personnel required to commission the antenna must be trained to work at high altitudes.
l The ATPC Function must be disabled.
l In the case of the hybrid mode, Setting the AM function to set the AM Enable Statusbe
disabled, and the working mode of the microwave must be set to the QPSK modulation
scheme.

l Adjustable wrench
l Telescope, interphone, and hex key wrench-set
l Multimeter (with a BNC connecter prepared at one end for future tests), north-stabilized
indicator
Precautions
l If the radio link is configured to 1+1 protection mode and one antenna is shared by the two
ODUs, power off the standby ODUs at both ends before aligning the antennas. After the
antennas are aligned, power on the standby ODUs at both ends.
l If the radio link is configured in 1+1 SD mode, align the antennas as follows:
1. Power on the main ODUs at both ends, and ensure that they are power-on during the
alignment.
2. Power off the standby ODUs at both ends, and align the main antennas at both ends.
3. Power on the standby ODU at the local end. Maintain the position of the main antenna
at the remote end, and adjust the diversity antenna at the local end.
4. Power on the standby ODU at the remote end. Maintain the position of the main
antenna at the local end, and adjust the diversity antenna at the remote end.
l If the radio link is configured in 1+1 FD mode and two antennas are used at each end, align
the antenna as follows:
1. At both ends, power on the main ODUs, power off the standby ODUs, and align the
main antennas.
2. At both ends, power off the main ODUs, power on the standby ODUs, and align the
diversity antennas.
CAUTION
l You can adjust the azimuth angle and elevation angle of the antennas by adjusting the related
nuts or screws. For details, refer to the related installation guide.
l In the IDU 605 2B/2F, the ODUs connect to the IF jumpers on the front panel of the IDU
605 through IF cables. The main ODU connects to the IF jumper over the ODU-M interface,
and the standby ODU connects to the IF jumper over the ODU-S interface. On the front panel
of the IDU, the power switch with a silkscreen of "ODU-M" controls the power supply of
the main ODU, and the power switch with a silkscreen of "ODU-S" controls the power supply
of the standby ODU.

Procedure
Step 1 Determine the azimuth of the antenna according to the installation position and height of the
antenna. Then, adjust the elevation of the antenna to the horizontal position.
Step 2 Connect a multimeter to the RSSI port on the ODU at the local end and test the voltage value
VBNC.
TIP
It is recommended that you make the test line terminated with a BNC connector at one end in advance
because it is more convenient to test the voltage value VBNC.
Figure 4-5 Testing the RSSI voltage by using a multimeter
Step 3 Adjust the azimuth and elevation of the antenna as follows:

1. Keep the remote antenna fixed.
2. Use the multimeter to test the VBNC. At the local end, rotate the antenna widely in the
horizontal direction.
When you rotate the antenna, the tested signal peaks may be as follows:
l Three signal peaks are tracked, for example, line AA' in Figure 4-3. In this case, adjust
the azimuth of the antenna to the peak position at point 2 as shown in Figure 4-3.
l Two signal peaks are tracked, for example, line BB' in Figure 4-3. In this case, adjust
the azimuth of the antenna to the middle of points 4 and 5 as shown in Figure 4-3. Then,
adjust the elevation of the antenna so that the three signal peaks in the case of line AA'
can appear. Adjust the antenna to the peak position at point 2 as shown in Figure 4-3.
l One signal peak is tracked, for example, line CC' in Figure 4-3. In this case, adjust the
azimuth of the antenna to the middle of points 6 and 7 as shown in Figure 4-3. Then,

adjust the elevation of the antenna so that the three signal peaks in the case of line AA'
can appear. Adjust the antenna to the peak position at point 2 as shown in Figure 4-3.
3. Slightly adjust the elevation and azimuth at point 2 as shown in Figure 4-3 until the
VBNC reaches the peak within the tracked range.
4. Adjust the antenna until the VBNC voltage reaches the peak value. Fix the local antenna.
NOTE
When you tighten the antenna, ensure that the VBNC voltage remains the peak value.
Step 4 Repeat Step 2 to Step 3 to adjust the remote antenna. When the remote received signal level
(RSL) reaches the peak value, tighten the remote antenna.
Step 5 Repeat Step 2 to Step 4 for two to four times and ensure that the RSL at the local end and the
RSL at the remote end reach the peak value. Tighten the antennas at both ends.
Step 6 Use the multimeter to test the VBNC voltage at both ends. Obtain the current RSL by referring
to the relation curve between the VBNC of ODUs and the RSLs at both ends.
NOTE
The curve diagram of the VBNC and RSL is put in the carton holding the ODU.
The actual RSL must be the same as planned by the network planning department.
NOTE
l If the actual receive power of the ODU is beyond the calculated power range +/-3 dB, the ODU indicator
on the IF board flashes yellow every 300 ms. If the received power is within the calculated power range,
the ODU indicator is off.
l If the VBNC does not meet the requirements, refer to the OptiX RTN 600 Radio Transmission System
IDU 605 Maintenance Guide for fault handling.
Step 7 Tighten all the screws of the antennas.

Generic traffic shaping A traffic control measure that initiatively adjusts the output speed of the traffic. This is
to adapt the traffic to network resources that can be provided by the downstream router
to avoid packet discarding and congestion.
GFP Generic Framing Procedure
Gigabit Ethernet GE adopts the IEEE 802.3z. GE is compatible with 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s Ethernet.It
runs at 1000Mbit/s. Gigabit Ethernet uses a private medium, and it does not support
coaxial cables or other cables. It also supports the channels in the bandwidth mode. If
Gigabit Ethernet is, however, deployed to be the private bandwidth system with a bridge
(switch) or a router as the center, it gives full play to the performance and the bandwidth.
In the network structure, Gigabit Ethernet uses full duplex links that are private, causing
the length of the links to be sufficient for backbone applications in a building and campus.

dependent on any particular unicast routing protocol for topology discovery, and sparse-
mode because it is suitable for groups where a very low percentage of the nodes (and
their routers) will subscribe to the multicast session. Unlike earlier dense-mode multicast
routing protocols such as DVMRP and PIM-DM which flooded packets everywhere and
then pruned off branches where there were no receivers, PIM-SM explicitly constructs
a tree from each sender to the receivers in the multicast group. Multicast packets from
the sender then follow this tree.
