General Hazards

Topic Chassis Earthing Protection from RF Exposure
Fiber Optic Cables
Grounding Connections Mains Power Supply Routing Maximum Ambient Temperature
Mechanical Loading
Power Supply Connection Power Supply Disconnect

Explanation The BN chassis earth must be connected directly to the DC supply system earthing conductor, or to a bonding jumper from an earthing terminal bar, or bus to which the DC supply system earthing is connected.
When installing, servicing or inspecting an antenna always comply with the following: · Locate the antenna such that it does not infringe the RF Exposure Limit Distance, relating to the Compliance Boundary General Public. · Stay aware of the potential risk of RF exposure and take appropriate precautions. · Do not stand in front of or look into an antenna without first ensuring the associated transmitter or transmitters are switched off. · At a multi-antenna site ask the site owner or operator for details of other radio services active at the site and for their requirements/recommendations for protection against potentially harmful exposure to RF radiation. · When it is not possible to switch transmitters off at a multi-antenna site and there is potential for exposure to harmful levels of RF radiation, wear a protective suit.
· Handle optical fibers with care. Keep them in a safe and secure location during installation. · Do not attempt to bend them beyond their minimum bending radius. · Protect/cover unconnected optical fiber connectors with dust caps.
· Reliable grounding of the BN chassis must be maintained.
· BN DC power is not to be routed with any AC mains power lines. They are also to be kept away from any power lines which cross them.
· The maximum ambient temperature for the BN product is 55 degrees C. To ensure correct operation and to maximize long term component reliability, ambient temperatures must not be exceeded. Operational specification compliance is not guaranteed for higher ambients. The BN should be mounted in such a way as to permit the vertical free flow of air through its cooling fins.
· When installing the BN on a tower, ensure that the tower is securely anchored. Ensure that the additional loading of devices will not cause any reduction in the mechanical stability of the tower.
· The BN operates from a nominal -48 VDC power supply.
· An appropriate power supply disconnect device should be provided as part of the installation.

BN Installation Guide vIG_BN_CBRS_2021-09_Final — 5

Rack Mount Temperature Considerations

· The BN is designed to operate in an outdoor environment with no significant obstructions in front of the radome. Do not install G1 in a closed or multi- unit rack assembly, because such a closed rack would impede the propagation of the RF signals. The maximum ambient temperature applies to the immediate operating environment of the G1 product.

CBSD Protocol
The SAS-CBSD protocol is based on the HTTPS (HTTP over TLS) protocol. The HTTPS protocol provides transport level assurance that a message has been received by the intended recipient. During discovery, the HTTPS protocol manages SAS-CBSD message delivery. Communications between the CBSD and SAS are initiated by the CBSD when it is in an Unregistered state.
TLS mutual authentication shall be performed per whenever a CBSD or Domain Proxy communicates with a SAS. TLS-v1.2 shall be used to perform authentication. Previous versions of TLS (e.g., TLS-v1.1 per RFC-4346, TLS-v1.0 per RFC-2246 or SSL-v3.0) shall not be used. During the TLS exchange, mutual authentication shall be performed. The CBSD/Domain Proxy initiating the TLS connection shall authenticate the SAS, and the SAS shall authenticate the CBSD/Domain Proxy. During the TLS message exchange, the CBSD/Domain Proxy shall authenticate a SAS. Server certificate validation shall be performed. A CBSD or Domain Proxy which is unable to successfully authenticate a SAS shall abort the TLS connection establishment procedure. It is implementation specific when the CBSD should re-attempt the TLS connection establishment procedure.
Tarana Wireless, Inc. ©2021. All rights reserved.

During the TLS message exchange, the CBSD/Domain Proxy provides its client certificate to the SAS. The SAS shall perform client certificate validation.
A SAS which is unable to successfully authenticate a CBSD or Domain Proxy shall abort the TLS connection establishment procedure. A CBSD or Domain Proxy which is unable to successfully setup such an encrypted connection with a SAS shall abort the TLS connection establishment procedure. It is implementation specific when the CBSD/Domain Proxy should re-attempt the TLS connection establishment procedure.
Subsequent to successful authentication, the CBSD/Domain Proxy and SAS shall negotiate a ciphersuite to use for encrypting all communications between the two entities. The ciphersuite shall be selected from the following list (ref. [n.1]):
· TLS RSA with AES 128 GCM SHA256
· TLS RSA with AES 256 GCM SHA384
· TLS ECDHE ECDSA with AES 128 GCM SHA 256
In the absence of the domain proxy, the CBSD first creates a secure association. The CBSD then initiates the Registration procedure by sending a RegistrationRequest object to the SAS with parameters that identify the CBSD to the SAS, provide specific information on the CBSD equipment capabilities, and identifies the measurement reporting capabilities of the CBSD. Optionally the CBSD may request the SAS to enroll the CBSD as a member of one or more Groups.
The SAS responds to the CBSD with parameters that indicate whether the registration succeeded or failed.
If the CBSD has any existing Grants prior to sending the Registration Request, all Grants shall be deleted. If the SAS had any existing Grants assigned to the CBSD, upon receiving the Registration Request from the CBSD, all such Grants shall be deleted.
If there is a Domain Proxy and the Domain Proxy is performing bulk CBSD registration, the Domain Proxy aggregates registration information for multiple CBSDs. The Domain Proxy sends an array of Registration Requests to the SAS which represents the aggregated CBSD registration information. Each Registration Request contains one instance of a registration request for a CBSD
BN Installation Guide vIG_BN_CBRS_2021-09_Final — 10

that the Domain Proxy is registering. Upon reception of the array of Registration Requests, the SAS initiates registration for each CBSD. The SAS responds with an array of Registration Requests, each containing a registration response to a CBSD with parameters that indicate whether the registration succeeded or failed.

Initial Configuration
Tarana recommends that the BN be powered and get an initial configuration prior to being mounted on the tower. The BN requires power and a connection on a data port for Tarana Cloud Suite (TCS) operation. The voltage required is -48 VDC supplied on the Harting power connector through the power port only. The estimated power draw is 300W.
For initial configuration, use a Harting Push-Pull Ethernet cable assembly plugged into the MGMT port on the BN. Using a standard Ethernet cable in this port will make removing the cable difficult and could damage the port. Harting Ethernet cable assemblies for this purpose are available through Tarana.
Upon receiving power, the BN will undergo the booting and initialization process for a period of 5-7 minutes. There are a set of LEDs on the bottom edge of the BN that will cycle through patterns and colors during this time.

BN Installation Guide vIG_BN_CBRS_2021-09_Final — 14

Note: Only one of the three data ports can be active at a time. DATA1 and DATA2 are optical SFP+ interfaces. Devices connected to these data ports must support SFP+ (10Gbps) or the ports will not come up. Tarana supplies an industrial-temperature SFP+ module for data connection at the BN on the tower. DATA3 is a copper interface and only supports 1Gbps. Devices connected to DATA3 must be Gigabit Ethernet or the port will not come up.
The BN communicates to the TCS through one of the data ports. The MGMT port is for initial configuration. Optionally this port can be used for on-site management, also called Out of Band (OOB) management.

BN Installation Guide vIG_BN_CBRS_2021-09_Final — 15

Accessing the MGMT Port
Step 1. Connect a laptop to the MGMT Gigabit Ethernet port of the BN. Step 2. Assign a static IP address of 192.168.10.10 to the laptop.

A management IP can also be assigned statically or by a DHCP server if there is a DHCP server on the network. DHCP must be enabled through the BN’s Web UI.
Configuration
From the BN’s web UI the following information needs to be configured: Step 1. Enter a static IP within the subnet of the LAN gateway or enable DHCP
to have a DHCP server give the BN an IP address.
Step 2. Optionally, enter a management VLAN.
Step 3. Configure the Data VLAN.
Step 4. Enter the default IP gateway.
Step 5. Verify the connection to the TCS by confirming the Hostname appears in green text at the top of the screen.

Step 3. Type 192.168.10.2 into a web browser to access the BN’s web interface. Note: Chrome is the recommended and supported browser.
Step 4. For the username and password, enter “admin” and “admin123”, respectively. This will bring up the BN’s web interface.

Mounting
BN Pole-Mount Bracket Assembly
Measure the pole diameter to determine which length of M8 bolt to use to hold the BN bracket to the pole.
NOTE: The pole diameter listed below is Outside Diameter (O.D.) and not Nominal Diameter (N.D.)
Use (4) M8 1.25 x 80 mm bolts for poles 60.3 mm 101.6 mm (2 3/8″ 3 ½”). Use (4) M8 1.25 x 120 mm bolts for poles 101.6 mm 127 mm (3 ½” 5″).
o Measure Pole Diameter (95mm in this example)

Step 1. Install the BN bracket on the pole. Note: There are slots for the bolt heads on both the bracket and the clamp.
Step 2. Insert the bolts on the right side of the clamp and thread on the nuts.
Step 3. Insert the bolts on the right side of the bracket and thread on the nuts.

Figure 3: Measure Pole Diameter
Tarana Wireless, Inc. ©2021. All rights reserved.

Step 4. Gradually engage (4) bolts ensuring clamp halves stay parallel to each other and are spaced evenly on either side of the clamp.
BN Installation Guide vIG_BN_CBRS_2021-09_Final — 20

Step 5. With the clamp in the final position, torque 4 bolts with incremental steps at approximately 40%, 70%, and 100% of full torque rating while ensuring the brackets stay parallel
· Following the torque sequence 1-2-3-4 shown below, torque all bolts to values of approximately 40% (6 N-m/ 4.4 lb.-ft).
· Continue with the same sequence for all bolts at approximately 70% (10 Nm/ 7.4 lb.-ft).
· Repeat the torque sequence for all bolts until each bolt is stabilized at 15 Nm/ 11 lb.-ft).

Mounting the Bracket Ears
When installing the BN bracket to the pole before attaching the BN to the bracket (recommended), register the tilt adjustment to the upper limit. This ensures that the flange ears where the BN will be attached are aligned properly. Snug the tilt-adjustment bolts enough to hold bracket ears firmly while mounting the BN.

Figure 5: Twisted Bracket Ears
Figure 6: Aligned Ears in High-Tilt Position
BN Installation Guide vIG_BN_CBRS_2021-09_Final — 21

Mounting the BN to the Bracket
Step 1. Install 2 M8 x 25mm bolts with wedge lock washers in the top holes on the back of the BN as shown below. Partially thread the bolts into the chassis halfway (~12mm). This will provide a sufficient gap for the bolt heads and washer to slide into the top slots on the bracket ears.

Step 2. Slide the BN into the top slots in the bracket ears using the partiallyinstalled bolts from Step 1. Ensure that the wedge lock washers are on the outside of the bracket and NOT between the BN and the bracket.

The BN must be slid into the top slots on the bracket ears using these two bolts.

Step 3. Install 2 M8 x 25 mm bolts with wedge lock washers in the two remaining lower slots one the bracket ears. Ensure that the wedge lock washers are on the outside of the bracket and NOT between the BN and the bracket.

BN Installation Guide vIG_BN_CBRS_2021-09_Final — 22

Step 4. Torque all 4 of these bolts using the same torque sequence demonstrated earlier.
· With the clamp in the final position, torque the 4 bolts with incremental steps at approximately 40%, 70%, and 100% of full torque rating
· Following the torque sequence shown, torque all bolts to values of approximately 40% (6 N-m/ 4.4 lb.-ft).
· Continue with the same sequence for all bolts at approximately 70% (10 Nm/ 7.4 lb.-ft).
· Repeat the torque sequence for all bolts until each bolt is stabilized at 15 Nm/ 11 lb.-ft.

BN Installation Guide vIG_BN_CBRS_2021-09_Final — 23

Antenna Aiming
The BN has a 90-degree field of view. The azimuth should be adjusted as appropriate to the network design.
Note: Adjust the azimuth before adjusting the tilt.
The azimuth must be set and torqued before the tilt. If done in reverse, there is a good chance that the torque setting for the tilt will not be accurate. This can cause the mount to lose tilt adjustment after some temperature cycles or vibration. In turn, this will cause a tower climb and/or service disruptions.

Adjusting the Azimuth
Step 1. Adjust the azimuth by loosening 3 bolts on top of the bracket assembly as seen below. Torque the 3 M8 x 180mm in a gradual triangular pattern. NOTE: The total adjustable azimuth is 60 degrees.
· Following a clockwise torque sequence, torque all bolts to values of approximately 40% (6 N-m/ 4.4 lb.-ft).
· Continue with the same sequence for all bolts at approximately 70% (10 Nm/ 7.4 lb.-ft).
· Repeat the torque sequence for all bolts until each bolt is stabilized at 15 Nm/ 11 lb.-ft.

BN Installation Guide vIG_BN_CBRS_2021-09_Final — 24

Adjusting the Tilt
Step 1. Adjust the tilt to the desired angle using a digital level with < 0.2-deg accuracy. Torque the 3 M8 x 180mm in a gradual triangular pattern. NOTE: The total adjustable tilt is 20 degrees.
· Torque the bolts in a clockwise pattern.
· Torque all bolts to values of approximately 40% (6 N-m/ 4.4 lb.-ft).
· Continue with the same sequence for all bolts at approximately 70% (10 Nm/ 7.4 lb.-ft).
· Repeat the torque sequence for all bolts until each bolt is stabilized at 15 Nm/ 11 lb.-ft.

An in-band management IP address can also be assigned statically or by a DHCP server if there is a DHCP server on the network. DHCP is disabled by default and must be enabled through the web UI.
It is optional to assign in-band management traffic to a VLAN.

Out-of-Band Management
Out-of-band (OOB) Management refers to managing the BN via the physical MGMT port. The BN’s web UI can be accessed by typing the default OOB IP of 192.168.10.2 into a browser window.
An OOB management IP can also be assigned statically, or by a DHCP server if there is a DHCP server on the network. DHCP is disabled by default and must be enabled through the web UI.
