Fit the O- ring into the antenna flange. The table below shows whether the small
or large O-ring is to be used.
NEC do not recommend the application of silicon grease to O-Rings
.
ANT-W/G - ODU
Notes: * Do not use both small O-ring and large O-ring simultaneously. Large Oring size is different according to frequency band, as follows:
For horizontal polarisation rotate the ODU until the plate marked H is at the top,
and locate the guide pin in the hole on the antenna. It is important to ensure that
the holes align and that the antenna and ODU flanges mate correctly.
For vertical polarisation, rotate the ODU until the plate marked V is at the top.
Note:
Only the 18-38 GHz band Andrew/RFS direct mount antenna has the option to
remote mount the ODU by use of waveguide. These are therefore supplied with
two O-rings; one large, one small, but only one O-ring is to be used. If the small
O-ring is used for ODU direct mount installation, a gap may occur between
ODU and antenna for RF interface. This may cause transmission problems
The 13/15 GHz band antenna does not have small O-ring as this antenna does
not have the waveguide-attach option.

Pole mounting of Direct Mount Hybrid, ODU and antenna for 1+1 System
NEC has developed a Hybrid Combiner/Splitter over the full range of microwave
frequencies for PASOLINK series digital microwave radio. This Hybrid comprises a
directional coupler, antenna interface, radio mounting interfaces and polarizers. The RF
signal power received by the single polarized antenna is equally distributed and sent to
two outdoor units through the Hybrid for 1+1 protected systems.
There are two types of NEC Hybrid Combiner/Splitter, one is a coaxial cable connection
type for 7/8GHz Bands and the other is Waveguide connection type for 13-38GHz Bands.
The NEC Hybrid is suited for Andrew or RFS Antenna. The maximum loss through the
Hybrid is <3.8dB, the port isolation being >20dB.
Each field fixing kit for Pasolink contains ODU sealing rings, antenna mounting screws
and antenna bracket fixing screws.
Remove flange protection and install O-ring to antenna interface ports
Mount the assembled unit to antenna using 4 screws. Gradually torque the antenna
mounting screws to 4.0Nm to ensure good microwave contact
ODU Installation
Fix two ODUs to the hybrid with four bolts, respectively.
Notes:
Remove flange protection (blue tape and/or cap) and install O-rings to ODU interface
ports.
Attach ODU1, orientated for correct polarisation to the hybrid ensuring that the
waveguide flange lines up without damaging the O ring.
Repeat for ODU2 on the other side.
Each ODU must be earthed as explained earlier.
ODU blanking plate
The ODU blanking plate is stored on the rear of the antenna bracket for Pasolink. It is
protected with copper based anti seize paste on the screw threads. In the event of ODU
failure, remove the faulty ODU leaving the ODU O-ring seal in position. Remove the
blanking plate from its stored position, and screw into unused mounting holes in the
recess around the relevant ODU port, to avoid RF power leaking from the hybrid and for
waterproofing. Torque screws to 0.5Nm max finger tight is sufficient to ensure a
waterproof seal.
Downgrading from 1+1 system to 1+0 system
Remove ODUs and Hybrid. Attach ODU direct to dish as per previous slides or to ODU
remote mounting bracket as described later. This is normally carried out after Common
Unit has been set up for 1+0 system and IDU is switched off or removed. That way, the
alarms are suppressed.

Flexi-twist Waveguide
Minimise any localised twisting and bending by distributing any required twisting along
as great a length as possible and maintaining maximum radius bends. Locate the
waveguide beneath supporting steelwork wherever possible to prevent climbing damage.
Secure at intervals not exceeding 300mm using tie-wraps taking care not to crush the
waveguide.
Remote Mount and ODU in 1+0 System
Assemble the remote mount bracket, and attach to the support pole, using the M10 Ubolts provided. Position the bracket to give easy access for maintenance and
replacement. The bracket can be assembled for both right hand and left hand ODU
mounting relative to the pole.
Attach the ODU support to the remote mount bracket, using the hardware provided.
Tighten to 4Nm. Note: Remove protection metallic plate covering waveguide hole on
ODU.
Mount a waveguide to the ODU, fix the waveguide to the ODU with four bolts
Note: Use the small O-ring and be careful not to damage it.
Remote Mounted Hybrid in 1+1 System (13-38GHz range)
The hybrid is a single assembly, which requires the antenna port to be adapted for the
required polarisation. The factory default is vertical polarisation. To set horizontal
polarisation rotate all the plates so that the H label is positioned up. Mount the hybrid
directly onto the pole mounting bracket, using the hardware provided.
Attach the ODUs to the hybrid as explained earlier.

The equipment is applied only SELV power supply, do not apply a voltage that
varies sharply. This may cause abnormal operation.
While the power supply is ON, do not connect/disconnect the power supply
connector. Otherwise, the DC-DC CONV may fail.
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 IDU to fail.
In 1+1 system, when neither No.1 nor No.2 channel is working, first set the OPE
SEL switch to the desired (N0.1 or No.2) position and power on the selected MD
Unit or set the OPE SEL switch to neutral (Auto) position and power on both
MD units.
In 1+1 system, when either No.1 or No.2 channel is working, set the OPR SEL
No.1-No.2 switch on the IDU to the working channel side, then, turn on the
power switch of the not working channel.

Waterproofing ODU Connector
Weatherproofing
All external connections, either coaxial or waveguide, must be weatherproofed,
using self-amalgamating tape or an alternative.
Start immediately next to the casing and bind the connector and cable ends to
15mm beyond the cable connector, then continue to bind back up to the start
position. For an efficient seal, the self-amalgamating tape is to be pulled so as to
reduce its width by 50% and overlap each turn 50%.
When complete, it is advisable to cover the self-amalgamating tape with one
layer of PVC tape also applied with a 50% overlap of each layer from the bottom
up.

1. System configuration (Hot standby)
When changing the system from Twin path to Hot standby, hand over the setting
parameter of No. 1 CH to No. 2 CH. When changing the system from 1+0 to Twin path
or from Hot standby to Twin path, first set the frequency of No.2 CH to 0ch and change
the System configuration after 1sec. or later.
1. Throughput
(disable) [(
The E1 channels are restricted depending on the throughput bit rate assignment of the
LAN Port 1 and port 2. (see Table on next page). The throughput bit rate for the Port 2
must be set less than Port 1 or the same value with Port 1. Full bandwidth assignment of
the throughput for Port 2 is not applicable.
2. Mode

100M-HALF(MDIX):7 / 100M-FULL(MDIX):8
Select maximum rate option from list. Enter: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5]
AUTONEG denotes automatic rate negotiation. The rate reverts to the slowest LAN port
connected.
HALF denotes half duplex, i.e. LAN transmission takes place one direction at a time.
FULL denotes full duplex, i.e. LAN transmission in both directions at same time.
3. Flow ctrl
Flow ctrl
Enter: [0, or 1]
Flow control is used on LANs to minimise collisions. This is especially important where
100M rated LANs are connected to the Radio Link LAN port as the maximum rate over
the radio link is 32Mb/s (if none of the E1s are used)

Enter: [0, or 1]
Framing is used on LANs to control the length of frames being sent and therefore
prevent a single user from occupying the bandwidth to the detriment of others. When
1 is selected, G.704 E1 formatting is applied to the LAN signal.

Transmit Power Measurement
No need to use CW, but observe the usual precautions for RF
RF Occupied Measurement
This is accomplished using a spectrum analyser. Use CW to set up (centralise on
spectrum analyser) then normal modulated RF to measure spectrum used. There
are huge variations depending upon data rate and carrier frequency.
Caution: During measurement, service will be interrupted.
1. Set functions of spectrum analyzer as follows:
Bandwidth: 30 kHz (for 2/4/8Mb/s)
100 kHz (for 16x2Mb/s)
Vertical: 10 dB/div
Horizontal: 5 MHz/div

1+1 IDU Replacement
The 1+1 IDU consists of three units (No. 1 CH/SW UNIT/No. 2 CH). If any unit fails,
replace only the unit that fails with a spare following the procedure described below.
Caution: When the SW UNIT (COMMON) unit is replaced, service is interrupted.
Note: To replace the SW UNIT with a spare, remove both No. 1 and No. 2 CH units first.
Example: No. 1 CH UNIT (MD) REPLACEMENT
Removing
1 Set OPR SEL No.1-AUTO-No. 2 switch on the SW UNIT to No. 2
2 Turn off the power switch on the No. 1 CH unit
3 Disconnect IF cable from the IF IN/OUT connector on the No. 1 unit
4 Loosen two screws on the No. 1 CH unit
5 To remove the unit, hold its handle then pull it forward
6 Reverse this procedure for insertion of the replacement
SW UNIT (COMMON) REPLACEMENT
In 1+1 system, when the SW UNIT is replaced, service is interrupted.
Removing
6 Carry out steps 2 to 5 for No. 1 CH unit
7 Repeat steps 2 to 5 for No. 2 CH unit
8 Disconnect coaxial and flat cables of the all connectors on the SW UNIT
9 Loosen two screws on the SW UNIT unit
10 To remove the unit, hold its handle then pull it forward
11 Reverse this procedure for insertion of the replacement
Setting Parameters
Perform the setting according to commissioning procedures, only when you replaced a SW
UNIT in the IDU with a spare.
The equipment is considered as fully warmed up after 30 minutes of being powered up
1+0 IDU Replacement
Removing
1 Turn off the power switch on the IDU
2 Disconnect IF cable from the IF IN/OUT connector on the IDU
3 Loosen two screws on the IDU
4 To remove the unit, hold its handle then pull it forward

Replacing ODU
Before replacing the ODU with a spare, ensure the spare operates in the correct sub-band
and TX high/low as appropriate. Here are procedures for replacing the ODU with a spare
after fault isolation:
Note: Procedures for No. 1 and No. 2 channels are identical.
Removing
1. Turn off the POWER switch on the front panel of the IDU
2. Remove waterproofing and loosen tightening rings of the IF IN/OUT connector (N) on
the ODU by turning them counter-clockwise,
3. Remove the waterproofing for waveguide connector type of ODU, and remove the
waveguide from the RF IN/OUT by removing the four waveguide fixing screws using a
screwdriver,
Note: Be careful not to damage the O-ring between the waveguide and ODU.
4. Remove earth cable
5. Loosen eight screws (M6) on the ODU
6. Remove the ODU
Notes: Be careful not to damage the O-ring between the waveguide and ODU.
7. Replace ODU with a spare, taking care when handling the coaxial/waveguide contact
surface. Torque up the ODU screws: 4.5Nm or Direct or Remote Mount, 2.8Nm to Hybrid
8. Reconnect the earth cable
9. Reconnect the IF cable and waveguide, if relevant
10. Redo all waterproofing and cable/waveguide supports
11. Turn on the POWER switch on the front panel of the IDU
12. Confirm the parameters and functionality of the replacement ODU and perform a BER
test if required.
The ODU is considered as fully warmed up 30 minutes after being power up
