Introduction

GO Networks’ WLP device is the key enabler for the Metro Broadband

Wireless (MBW) Solution. Go Pico Cellular WiFi architecture offers a novel

topology for metro WiFi networks which relies on the strengths of

innovative XRF™ architectures. This architecture provides the coverage,

capacity, and scalability required to deliver next-generation services and

overcome the limitations of existing metro WiFi solutions.

The Go Networks’ Pico Cellular WiFi architecture is a highly scalable

Micro/Pico topology which provides unprecedented flexibility to service

providers deploying Metro WiFi networks.

Key Product Features

a. Robust Pico cellular WiFi solution

b. Separate accesses & backhaul radios delivering unmatched

bandwidth

c. xRF™ smart antenna engine for unmatched (360o) coverage and

capacity enhancements

d. Advanced automatic mesh

e. Designed for streetlight, wall, or pole deployment

GO WLAN Pico Base Station (WLP)

The GO WLAN Pico Base Station (WLP) complements the WLAN Sector

Base Station (WLS) by delivering street-level coverage and providing

capacity enhancements in dense metro areas over a single 802.11b/g

channel, while backhauling traffic over multiple 802.11a/b/g radios.

The WLP Base Station delivers omni-directional (360o) coverage while

retaining full xRF smart antenna engine functionality for enhanced capacity

and range.

WLP Package Components

The WLP package items are listed in Table 1:

Table 1: WLP package contents

Deployments of gateway devices connected by wire to an indoor

switch/router would include installation of a lightning protector. A lightning

protector is not supplied as part of the standard package. It can be

ordered from GO Networks as an accessory.

Specific installation may require different Power/Ethernet connections. See

WLP Component and Cable Connections for more details.

WLP Safety Information

RF Exposure

The WLP, an outdoor access point, is compliant with the requirements

set forth in CFR 47 section 1.1307, addressing RF Exposure from radio

frequency devices as defined in OET Bulletin 65. The outdoor access

point antennas should be installed to provide a separation distance of at

least 3 feet (1 meter) from humans

WLP Lightning Protector

A lightning protector is required when the WLP unit is installed in an

outdoor location and the Ethernet cable connects to an indoor network

device. The purpose of the lightning protection is to protect people and

equipment located indoors from lightning that might strike the WLP or its

outdoor cables. Therefore, the lightning protector device should be

installed indoors, as close as possible to the point where the cables enter

the building.

The lightning protector can also be installed outdoors, as long as the

cables that go from the lightning protector to the indoors are well

protected from lightning between the box and the building entrance.

Verify that you have shared grounding. GO Networks offers a lightning

protector that can be ordered separately.

Installation

Installation Process

Installing the WLAN Pico Base Station involves the following steps:

1. Performing a Site Survey

2. Assembling and Mounting

3. Mounting the WLP unit

4. Connecting the Antennas

5. Connecting the cables

6. Powering up the unit and configuring the software

7. Performing a Post-installation Testing Procedure to verify

connectivity and operation

Site Survey

Most wireless LANs include many access points installed in various

locations in an overlapping radio-cell pattern. It is important to carefully

position each access point’s positioning and the assignment of its radio

channels. Therefore, a site survey becomes an essential first step before

physically deploying the GO MBW WLP Pico Cellular Base Station solution.

Installation of the access points requires a backhaul to interface the

corporate network or Internet. This backhaul connection can be a mesh

configuration, an Ethernet-wired connection, or a third-party solution.

When using any method other then a wired connection, keep in mind the

WLP has to have a good reception on its BH side so it will not limit the

access-channel performance.

Conclude the site survey with a detailed plan of the MBW system

deployment. The system deployment plan should include WLP mounting

points and the routes for the power and backhaul cables.

Note: When mounting the WLP on a pole (or wall mount), the pole

should be able to support four times the weight of the WLP, as

well as the wind loading created by the WLP.

Since the mounting structure itself is a potential source of

interference, the cell should be mounted with at least 4 feet of

clearance between the antennas and the mounting structure.

Assembling and Mounting

The universal mount is used to attach and secure the WLP to a wall, a

lamppost, or a variety of poles.

The WLP mounting consists of the following stages:

a. Securing the mounting brackets to a wall, lamp post, or pole.

b. Connecting the WLP unit to the brackets using the ‘L’ adaptor.

c. Aligning the WLP unit.
