The standard installation is summarized in this section. Included herein is
information on typical installation work flow and guides for IDU
installation, ODU installation, Antenna (ANT) installation, waveguide
connection and coaxial cable connections. The installation flow diagram
is shown below.
This product is a part of radio link system, and is intended to be connected
with a external antenna.
This product will be installed and operated by professional.
After installation, the professional person shall make sure that the system
shall comply with the relevant limits for general public exposure specified
as basic restrictions or reference levels in the council Recommendation
1999/519/EC.

2.6 ODU Mounting

The procedures for mounting and demounting the ODU are described
here. There are two types of mounting for the antenna direct mounting
type and waveguide connecting type. The ODU should be installed in the
radio station. The tools for installation are listed in Table 2-1.
Table 2-1 Tools
TOOLS

Wrench or Monkey wrench

Screwdriver
Torque Wrench
Caution 1. How to use small and large O-rings are shown in
following table. Two (small and large) O-rings are
attached in 18 to 38 GHz band Andrew/RFS direct mount
antenna. 11/13/15 GHz band antenna does not have
small O-ring (Small O-ring is not used for Andrew/RFS
direct mount antenna). If the small O-ring is used for
ODU direct mount installation, a gap may occur between
ODU and antenna for RF interface. Therefore it may
happen transmit or receive level down.
Caution 2. Do not apply silicon grease at O-ring.

3. INITIAL LINE UP
This section explains instructions for the initial lineup of the equipment.
Included is information on start-up, shut-down, IDU and ODU equipment
setting, antenna orientation and lineup test between two stations.
When the PASOLINK Monitor is used for RX LEV monitoring, connect
the X0818 PASOLINK Monitor to the ODU. The PASOLINK Monitor
operates on a dry battery (6F22/9V).
Notes:

1. Insert the battery with correct polarity.

2. When the PASOLINK Monitor will not be used for extended
periods of time, remove the battery to avoid damage from
battery leakage and corrosion.
3. When the PASOLINK Monitor will be connected to the
ODU, control corresponding ODU to Antenna Alignment
mode using LCT in Maintenance ON.

3.1 Start-up
The procedure for starting the equipment is shown in Chart 3-1.
Warning: 1. The 48 V DC is superimposed on the centre conductor
of the IF coaxial cable between the MODEM and the
ODU. Connecting test equipment directly to this
terminal may damage it and touching the coaxial cable
core may cause electrical shock.
2. Do not disconnect the IF cable between the MODEM and the
ODU in operating condition, to avoid damaging the
PASOLINK NEO, turn the IDU power OFF before
connecting/disconnecting the IF cable.

3. Do not allow open or short circuit of ODU TX output

with the TX power on conditions. Perform the TX Mute
control in the Maintenance mode or turn the PWR switch
off at the IDU before disconnecting cable or feeder from
the ODU TX output.
4. After turning ON the equipment, wait at least 1 minute before
turning it OFF again. Repeatedly turning the power ON and
OFF within a short interval may cause the PASOLIN NEO to
fail.

Caution: 1. In a system using the OPTICAL STM-1 INTFC, do not

stare at the laser beam or look at it directly with optical
instruments. Otherwise, it may hurt your eyes (Class 1
Laser Product).
2. Be careful top surface above MODEM of the IDU is hot in
operation.
3. When replacing the MODEM, 16/48E1 INTFC, E3 INTFC,
STM-1 INTFC or DC-DC CONV (optional) turn off the PWR
switch and disconnect all cables connected to the module
which is to be replaced.
4. When dismounting the ( ) INTFC, turn off the PWR switch on
the MODEM and disconnect all cables connected to the ( )
INTFC.
5. In the SDH XPIC system, the system parameter setup must be
performed at the Master station first, then at the Sub Station.
6. In the SDH XPIC system, the Main Master and Sub Master

channels must be connected to one dual polarized

antenna.

Note: In order to measure exact performance of AGC V, it is
mandatory required to set Antenna Alignment Mode to

It is necessary to set to Antenna Alignment Mode when
monitor the RX level with the PASOLINK Monitor unit.

Safety Guideline for Microwave Radiation Hazard

The Microwave and Millimetre-wave that PASOLINK NEO series are treating is very small radiation
level and never been reported to effect human health. But advanced countries about health hazard have
started to regulate the radiation levels. In case of EU country, it is specified by EN50385. In order to
keep the regulation, the operator shouldn't work at near parabolic antenna during transmitter activating.
Especially the area in side to front of antenna shows higher radiation level. (please see below figure and
calculation sample 1).
On the other hand, in case of front side of antenna, the power density becomes high level along antenna
beam. Therefore the user of this system should pay attention not to radiate the beam against humans
any time. (Please refer below calculation sample 2)
ANTENNA
ODU
- 90 to +90
degrees

Hazard Area of Radiation

In addition, the Power density and Field strength level is calculated by equation below.
P+G30

10 10 K
Power density S (mW/cm ) =
40 R2
2

Where:
P = Output power of ODU (dBm),
G = Antenna Gain (dBi),
(in consideration of the angle from antenna)
K = Reflection factor =2.56 (given),
R = Distance between Human and Antenna (m)
Calculation example 1, (90 degree side of antenna)
PASOLINK = 18 GHz/+23 dBm,
Antenna diameter = 0.6 m,
0 degree antenna gain = 39 dBi,
90 degrees side antenna gain = 24 dBi, (90 degrees attenuation = 63 dB),
Distance = 0.1 m
Power density S (mW/cm2) = 0.0016 0.01 (European safety guideline)
Calculation example 2, (0 degree, front side of antenna)
PASOLINK = 7 GHz/+27 dBm,
Antenna diameter = 1.8 m,
0 degree antenna gain = 40 dBi,
Distance = 100 m
Power density S (mW/cm2) = 0.01 => Equal to European safety guideline

The DADE adjustment is needed in initial lineup or when the IF CABLE is replaced. It
is not needed readjustment when the INTFC status is indicated In-phase. The setting
conditions are as follows:
DADE:Automatically adjust delay time based on either No.1 signal or No.2 signal
which it is selected by RX SW under the Outphase condition of the INTFC
status. The DADE control is processed assuring no interruption of traffic.
Offset DADE:Automatically adjust delay time based on either No.1 signal or No.2 signal
which it is selected by RX SW under the Outphase condition of the INTFC
status. Since the offset memory minimizes the latency delay, traffic
interruption occurs at that moment. This Offset DADE controls the delay
time difference to a minimum than DADE control.
DADE off: Set when DADE function is not used. For particularly, when low bit rate (10
to 20 MB) transmission is applied to the system, the DADE control is not
required.

Procedure

In HS system, set the TX SW to No.1 or No.2 to On condition

at transmitting end (refer to Chart 3-8),

At receiving end, set the RX SW to either No.1 or No.2 to On

condition,

Measure BER at required E1 CH and confirm that the values are

indicated as follows:
Requirement: 1 x 1012 or less
Note: It can be measured only E1 CHs which are assigned to
Used (E1) in provisioning.

At receiving end, change setting of the RX SW to opposite No.1

or No.2 from it in step 5 and confirm that the measured value
satisfies requirement as in step 6,

Change setting of the TX SW to opposite No.1 or No.2 from it

in step 4 and confirm that the measured value satisfies
requirement given in step 6,

At receiving end, change setting of the RX SW to opposite No.1

or No.2 from it in step 7 and confirm that the measured value
satisfies requirement given in step 6,
