5. MOUNTING ODU
The procedures for mounting and dismounting the ODU are described here. There are
two types of mounting for the Antenna Direct Mounting type and Feeder Connecting
type. The ODU should be installed in the radio station.
The tools for installation are listed in Table 5-1.
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 42 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.
2. Do not apply silicon grease at O-ring.
Note 11/13/15 GHz antenna for direct mount is not possible to connect the
ordinary waveguide flanges.

5-40 MOUNTING ODU
NWD-118789-04E iPASOLINK 1000: INSTALLATION
For the antenna direct mounting of the ODU, following OMT is used.
Cautions
1. For connecting the OMT to the antenna, the circular type waveguide flange
of the antenna is applied to the system. When the V/H flange is mounted to
the antenna, it must be changed to a circular type.
2. When mounting the ODU to the OMT, confirm the polarization for main
master and sub master ODU. The installation of the corresponding ODUs in
the opposite station must have the same polarization in order to make into
line main master and sub master MODEMs.
1 Fix the bracket and handle to the OMT,

Cautions
1. Tighten all screws with lighter torque at first, then full torque as specified.
2. When either ODU is demounting for ODU replacing or other reasons, fix the
attached short plate to the demounted port of the OMT to avoid leaking of
RF power from the OMT and for waterproof.
3. To avoid occurrence of bit errors due to microphonic properties, when
installing the sub master ODU, protect the main master ODU from
mechanical knocks.

6. ADJUSTING CABLE ENDS
Following provides the list of tools, materials and the method for cable termination.
The applicable cables are listed in Table 6-1.
Notes
1. For the 1+1 system, the difference between the No.1 channel I/F cable
length and the No.2 channel I/F cable length should be within 100 m.
(differential absolute delay time: within 500 ns)
2. When the N (Male) straight connector is attached to the I/F cable, use of
the TNC (Male) - N (Female) (NJ-TNCP-LA) L-angle adapter is needed
to connect to the IDU.
3. Use shielded cables which are connected to the D-Sub/RJ-45 connector
to suppress interference from affecting the signal and to reduce
electromagnetic radiation which may interfere with other signal cables.

Safety Guideline for Microwave Radiation Hazard
The Microwave and Millimeter-wave that iPASOLINK 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.)
Figure 11-2 Hazard Area of Radiation
In addition, the power density and field strength level is calculated by equation
below.
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)

Note Take care that the flexible waveguide is not forcedly twisted by rotating
the antenna.
When the HS/SD system is configured, alternately switchover the transmitter to the
other channel (No.1 or No.2) at the opposite station and repeat adjustment of
elevation and azimuth to obtain satisfactory results in both No.1 and No.2 CH.
1 Loosen all strut attachment hardware,
2 Loosen bolts indicated by arrows in Figure 11-7,

XPD Adjustment (Waveguide Connection Type)
Note This XPD adjustment using cross-polarization signal should be done
more carefully than using co-polarization signal because XPD changes
sharply in the axial direction.
1 At opposite station, turns the ODU of the Sub Master channel power OFF (for
both No.1 and No.2 Sub Master channels in 1+1 system),
2 In this conditions, check the RX LEVEL MON indication value for XPD at the
ODU of the Sub Master channel,
3 Confirm that the XPD is more than 25 dB, if it is not obtained, repeat Azimuth
Angle, Elevation Angle for the XPD Adjustment,
4 Tighten all strut attachment hardware, turnbuckle jam nuts and bolts indicated by
arrows in Figure 11-7 and Figure 11-8,
5 At opposite station, turns the ODU of the Sub Master channel power ON (for
both No.1 and No.2 slave channels in 1+1 system),
6 At each station, disconnect the digital multimeter or OW/RX LEV Monitor from
the RX LEV MON connector,
7 At each station, reconnect the cap removed in Step 4,
Note The RX LEV MON connector must be capped for waterproof.
8 At each station, restore the Antenna Alignment Mode to off position using
the LCT,
9 At the Main Master station, when the TX power control is operated in ATPC,
restore the TX Power Control item of System Configuration changed in Step 1 to
ATPC using the LCT,
10 At the Main Master, when the TX power control is operated in MTPC, restore
MTPC TX PWR item of Provisioning Data changed in Step 2 to original
setting value using the LCT,
11 At each station, reset Maintenance to OFF.
