1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
OPPORTUNITY: Protable growth to meet customer demand and remain
competitive
Residential, government, and business customers continue to call for greater speeds, more
functionality, and lower costs to support a wide variety of applications such as on-demand video,
Voice-over-IP (VoIP), video conferencing, video monitoring, streaming movies, interactive gaming,
and IPTV. This has placed increasing pressure on carriers, service providers, and private network
operators to provide more capacity and throughput while ensuring the highest levels of reliability.
In response, wireline and wireless service providers are broadening their coverage areas and service
offerings and deploying higher-capacity, converged networks while striving to remain profitable.
Simultaneously, wireline carriers are experiencing continued commoditization of voice services while
their customers shift to VoIP and mobile phone services. As these carriers evolve their networks, they
have to support the growth of more expansive service offerings while balancing capital expenditures
and operational costs to achieve a more profitable bottom line. In private networks, organizations
are in the process of migrating their legacy TDM systems to IP-based, converged networks to meet
ever-increasing user demands.
Clearly, there is an opportunity for the right technology to help them achieve these business-building
objectives.
SOLUTION: Point-to-Multipoint (PMP) 450
Our Point-to-Multipoint (PMP) 450 Series platform can enable carriers, service providers, and enter-
prises to deliver high performance, reliable, and profitable services that supply customer and user
demands for more and faster communications. The PMP 450 offers several key advantages to help
these organizations achieve their connectivity objectives, including:
High throughput more than 1 Gbps per tower
Exceptional spectral efficiency

2.3 PMP 450 OVERVIEW
PMP 450 Series access networks consist of Access Point (AP) Modules and Subscriber Modules
(SM). Each AP sector operates over a single-frequency channel using Time Division Duplex (TDD) in
each direction. In a typical deployment, the AP communicates with each SM individually, and each
AP can support up to 238 SMs. In synchronized operation, all APs transmit at the same time.
Subsequently, all SMs transmit at the same time. GPS synchronization technology times all
access-network traffic, virtually eliminating self-interference.
PMP 450 Access Point Modules: APs are self-contained, connectorized outdoor transceivers that
contain all the radio, networking, antenna, and surge suppression electronics. APs are designed for
use with external antennas, enabling the radios to cope with more difficult radio conditions. Units
can be rooftop or tower mounted, and each AP uses an indoor power supply module to provide
power-over- Ethernet (PoE). Cat 5e cabling connects the power supply to the outdoor AP.
Each AP provides a specified sector of coverage and has up to 125 Mbps maximum throughput
capacity. You can choose to deploy an AP with any appropriate antenna to satisfy your coverage
needs. Cambium offers several options, including 60-degree or 90-degree sector antennas. Up to
six APs can be deployed in a single ring on a tower. A second AP ring can be installed on the same
tower at a different frequency to achieve more than 1 Gbps throughput. As an example, if you de-
ploy six 5.8 GHz, 60- degree APs on a tower and need additional coverage and/or capacity, you can
deploy another six 60- degree APs at 5.4 GHz on the same tower. In fact, when using our high-per-
formance sector antennas, careful frequency planning, and a clean RF environment, you can re-use
frequencies from sector to sector, allowing you to most effectively use the spectrum that is available
to you.
12-Month Standard Warranty
With the purchase of each PMP 450 system, we pro-
vide a 12-month (one- year) limited warranty on hardware
components. The Standard Warranty includes software updates
as available and 24x7 telephone technical support.
PMP 450 Extended Warranties
Multiple Frequency Options
At time of purchase or any time prior to the end of the
12-month standard warranty, we recommend that you purchase
an Extended Warranty to extend equipment coverage and
protect your investment.
Two separate Extended Warranties are available one for
APs and a second one for SMs. You may purchase Extended
Warranties for one, two or four additional years of equipment
coverage. Software updates and 24x7 telephone technical
support are also included.

PMP 450 Subscriber Module: SMs are integrated outdoor transceivers containing radio, antenna,
and networking electronics. SMs can be rooftop or tower mounted, and each SM requires a
power supply unit. The indoor-deployed power supply provides PoE to the subscriber module. Cat
5e cable connects the indoor power supply to the outdoor-mounted SM. SMs do not include
embedded surge suppression. So, we recommend that you add an external surge suppression
device for protection from the harmful effects of power surges induced into the electronics as a
result of nearby lightning strikes. The SM is offered as an integrated or connectorized model. The
gain of the integrated version can be augmented using a CLIP or reflector dish to extend the range
of the units, if desired. The connectorized version has two male N-type cables that can be added to
any appropriate antenna.
Each AP can support up to 238 SMs. SMs offer scalable capacities of 4, 10, and 20 Mbps plus an
uncapped capacity. The capacity you select is a capacity cap that determines the maximum
achievable sustained throughput for each SM. You can begin with a 4 or 10 Mbps and upgrade to
20 Mbps or uncapped capacity at any time without changing your equipment. Uncapped capacity
gives you up to 55 Mbps throughput.

Power Supplies: Depending on your system configuration, you will need to deploy a power supply
with each AP and SM. The following are the approved power supply options:

2.4 THROUGHPUT CAPACITIES
All APs have a throughput capacity of up to 125 Mbps per sector. SMs have scalable throughput
capacities at 4, 10 and 20 Mbps as well as uncapped capacity. Uncapped capacity allows the SM
to provide up to 55 Mbps. A capacity cap sets the maximum throughput achievable for that device.
It is important to remember that the total capacity of the SMs linked to a particular AP sector share
the 125 Mbps capacity provided by the AP per sector. As an example, if you have one AP with a
60-degree sector connected to 10 SMs, the average throughput capacity of each SM would be 12
Mbps. Although that is the average throughput, the throughput capacity mix for your SMs can vary.
You might have 5 SMs at 4 Mbps maximum capacity, three SMs at 15 Mbps, and two at 30 Mbps for
a 125 Mbps total capacity spread across the 10 SMs. While the top speed limit is set by the SM
model you purchase or by the upgrade license key that has been applied, the throughput to each
radio can be fully managed through Quality-of-Service settings in the subscriber software.
When you order an SM, you need to specify the throughput capacity you require for the
deployment. You can begin with a lower capacity and increase capacity up to the uncapped
maximum any time after deployment without changing equipment. For example, you could order
an SM with 10 Mbps capacity and a year later upgrade the SMs capacity to 20 Mbps. After that,
you could also upgrade the 20 Mbps capacity to uncapped capacity as your throughput needs
increase.
Capacity upgrades are supplied via an Upgrade License Key which can be purchased from your
authorized Cambium Connected Partner distributor or solutions provider. The upgrade is applied by
entering the supplied URL in a PMP 450 module-connected Web browser address bar. Once this is
done, the additional capacity is available immediately.
2.5 TIME DIVISION DUPLEXING (TDD)
PMP 450 systems use TDD. This means that one channel alternately transmits and receives, rather
than using one channel for transmitting and a second channel for receiving. To achieve this, each AP
provides synchronization to its SMs, synchronizing transmit and receive signals so that all APs
transmit at the same time and all APs receive at the same time. When an AP is transmitting, the SMs
are receiving. Conversely, when the SMs are transmitting, the AP is receiving. To synchronize the
signals, the PMP 450 offers a choice of GPS synchronization options, including:
PMP 450
For AP clusters, you will need this power supply,
model number ACPS120WA, for connecting to a
CMM3 or CMM4.
For your SMs, you will use the standard
ACPSSW-09B or ACPSSW-13B (shown here).

Cluster Management Module (CMM)
Universal Global Positioning System (UGPS)
Embedded GPS
In addition, within a specific geographic area, APs that can hear each other can use a common
synchronization scheme to further reduce self-interference with the network. The advantage is
that GPS synchronization allows you to densely pack radios on a rooftop or tower with virtually no
self-interference.
The PMP 450 platform utilizes the Autosync feature, which will automatically manage the source
of the GPS synchronization signal to the network and apply the appropriate one. If, for any reason,
that signal is no longer usable, it will automatically switch to a working source, or generate its own
sync pulse (should you choose this option).
2.6 ADAPTIVE MODULATION
PMP 450 units can transport data over a wireless link using a number of different modulation
modes. The radio will automatically select QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying), 16 QAM, 64 QAM,
or 256 QAM based on the RF conditions to provide 1x/2x, 4x, 6x, 8x operation, respectively.
Please see the PMP 450 Planning Guide for performance charts for all models.

2.7 ORTHOGONAL FREQUENCY DIVISION MULTIPLEXING (OFDM)
PMP 450 systems transmit using OFDM. The channel bandwidth of the OFDM signal can be set to
5, 10 or 20 MHz. OFDM sends transmissions over multiple frequencies, or sub-carriers. The multiple
sub-carriers result in higher spectral efficiency and higher resistance to:
Multi-path interference which occurs when objects in the air gap split a beam into parts that travel
different paths and interfere with each other at the receiver.
Frequency selective fading which occurs when amplitudes of arriving signals cancel each other
out at the receiver.

2.8 MULTIPLE-INPUT, MULTIPLE-OUTPUT (MIMO)
PMP 450 systems use MIMO technology. The coding schemes employed in this platform send
different data streams simultaneously over the two polarities, allowing the PMP 450 to double the
throughput of a radio transmission during good RF conditions (a high signal-to-noise, or SNR, ratio).
When the effects of MIMO are combined with those of OFDM and a high link budget, there is a high
probability that the link can reliably communicate over an nLOS, and, in many cases, over an NLOS
path.

2.9 ENCRYPTION
PMP 450 solutions include options for 56-bit Data Encryption Standard (DES) or FIPS 197 128-bit
AES encryption. When you install the system, you can choose the encryption method that best
meets your infrastructure and application requirements. Neither method adversely affects the
performance or throughput of the system.
For countries that have restrictions on AES encryption equipment, there is an Access Point model
available without AES present in the software.

3.0 CONFIGURATION AND ORDERING
This section of the Sales Guide gives you information to help you plan for purchasing and installing a
PMP 450 system.
3.1 ORDERING A PMP 450
There are several key issues involved in configuring and ordering a PMP 450 system. This Sales
Guide provides an overview of the ordering process. Detailed ordering procedures with part
numbers and descriptions can be found in the PMP 450 Ordering Guide.
Regulatory Planning
To begin, you should contact the applicable radio regulator in your area to identify any restrictions
or limitations imposed on radio equipment operating in your chosen RF band and to find out
whether or not you will need to register your PMP network. It is the users responsibility to make
sure that the system complies with any restrictions that may be imposed by the local regulator.
Certain regulators may restrict frequency usage and channel width, and may limit the amount of
conducted or radiated transmitter power. Many countries impose EIRP limits on products operating
in the bands used by the PMP 450 Series radios. Other countries such as the US impose power limits
on products operating in the 5.8 GHz band. When using connectorized APs with external antennas,
regulations may require that the maximum transmit power be reduced
If, after obtaining the regulatory requirements, you need assistance in planning your system to
comply with the regulations, contact your local Cambium area manager or an authorized Cambium
ConnectedPartner for guidance with system compliance.
Site Planning
There are many factors to be considered when choosing sites for the APs and SMs, power supplies,
CMM (if applicable), and GPS antenna (if applicable). Some key considerations for site selection
include:
Height and location of the APs and SMs to ensure that people cannot tamper with the equipment
Height and location of the APs and SMs to provide the best possible radio path conditions; APs
should be positioned:
Where there is available tower or rooftop space
Where a grounding system is available
With hardware that the wind and ambient vibrations cannot flex or move
At a height that is higher than the tallest point of objects immediately around the APs
At least 2 feet (0.6 meters) below the tallest point on the tower, pole, or roof (for lightning
protection)

Ability to meet the ground and lightning protection requirements
Aesthetics and other permission-based issues
Maximum cable lengths the maximum permitted length of the copper Ethernet interface cable is
330 feet (100 meters)
Effect of strong winds on the installation to ensure that the site will withstand the force of winds
at the chosen deployment site
The structure and mounting brackets of PMP 450 APs and SMs are capable of withstanding wind
speeds up to 118 mph (190 kph). In addition to the PMP 450 equipment, you need to ensure that the
structures to which the APs and SMs will be fixed are also capable of withstanding prevalent wind
speeds and loads for the location. You can obtain the wind speeds prevalent at the proposed
location by contacting:
US National Weather Service at: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/
UK Meteorological Office at: http://www.metro.gov.uk
We recommend that you also conduct a site survey to analyze factors impacting the potential site,
including:
What pre-existing wireless equipment exists at the site
Whether or not available mounting positions exist near the lowest elevation that satisfies LOS
coverage and other link criteria
Whether or not you will always have the right to decide who climbs the tower to install and
maintain your equipment, and whether nor not that person or company can climb at any hour of
any day
Whether or not you will have collaborative rights and veto power to prevent interference to your
equipment from wireless equipment that is installed at the site in the future

Link Planning
Factors such as range, path loss due to obstacles, and throughput need to be considered when
planning links. So, we recommend that you perform a site survey to identify all the obstructions in
the path and to assess the risk of interference. This information is necessary to achieve an accurate
link feasibility assessment. In addition, you will need to calculate the range or reach of the link to
determine whether or not your proposed system will be able to span the distance reliably. Other
factors that should be identified include: Path loss the amount of attenuation, or loss of signal
intensity, between the two ends of the link
Maximum power level for Connectorized APs if a Connectorized AP will be used in a country
that imposes an EIRP limit in the selected band, you need to calculate the highest setting of
maximum power level that will be permitted
Link loss the total attenuation of the wireless signal between two point-to-multipoint units
Rx signal level the Rx sensitivity of each module
Fade margin free space path loss, the difference between the receive signals strength and the
strength that the receiver requires for maintaining a reliable link; a high fade margin is
characteristic of a more reliable link.
Analyze the RF Environment
An essential element in RF network planning is the analysis of spectrum usage and the strength of
the signals that occupy the spectrum you are planning to use. You can measure and chart the results
by using the Spectrum Analyzer feature in SMs or by using a spectrum analyzer. Regardless of which
method you use, you should analyze spectrum usage at various time of the day, on various days of
the week, and periodically into the future. Then, as new RF neighbors move in or consumer devices
proliferate in your spectrum, the spectrum analysis will keep you aware of the potential for
interference with your network.

Were so overstretched now. How much are we going to have to learn?
PMP 450 systems are optimized for fast and easy deployment, reducing deployment man-hours and
stress. Operation is easy with our intuitive user interface, and the systems work with your existing
PMP 100 and PMP 430 systems. A system can literally be installed in a matter of hours.
How will this help us grow the network?
Our PMP 450 is designed for growth. By delivering more than 700 Mbps per AP ring and more than
1 Gbps per tower with two AP rings, you can give your customers or users all the speed they need
for everything from streaming video and gaming to real-time data access, video conferencing, HDTV
and more. Plus, growth is faster and simpler. Because the PMP is wireless, there are no trenches to
dig and no copper or fiber to put down. With GPS synchronization, you can scale from small to re-
gion- wide coverage. The system deploys quickly and works with your existing systems. So, there are
no expensive, labor-intensive and time-consuming fork-lift replacements.
What design and deployment assistance can we get?
Working with our authorized partners, we provide a variety of pre-sales, post-sales, and technical
support services to our customers globally. We can help you design the system, plan the modules,
