Power density exposure limit
Install the radios for the 60 GHz cnWave™ Platform Family of wireless solutions so as to provide and maintain the minimum separation distances from all persons. The applicable FCC power density exposure limit for RF energy in the 57 – 66 GHz frequency bands is 10 W/m2. For more information, see Human exposure to radiofrequency energy.

Calculation of power density
The following calculation is based on the ANSI IEEE C95.1-1991 method, as that provides a worst case analysis. Peak power density in the far field of a radio frequency point source is calculated as follows:

Where:

• S: power density in W/m2
• p: maximum average transmit power capability of the radio, in W
• G: total Tx gain as a factor, converted from dB
• d: distance from point source, in m Rearranging terms to solve for distance yields:

Calculated distances and power compliance margins
The following tables show calculated recommended separation distances, for the 60 GHz cnWave™ for Europe the USA and Canada. These are conservative distances that include compliance margins. At these and greater separation distances, the power density from the RF field is below generally accepted limits for the general population.60 GHz cnWave™ Platform Family ODU adheres to all applicable EIRP limits for transmit power when operating in MIMO mode. Separation distances and compliance margins include compensation for the antenna configuration of each product.

Table 29 : Calculated distances and power compliance margins

Product| Countries| EIRP

(dBm)

| EIRP (W)| Maximum power density (W/m 2 )| Compliance distance (m)
---|---|---|---|---|---
V1000| USA, Canada, EU| 38| 6.3| 10| 0.22
V3000| USA, Canada| 60.5| 1122| 10| 3.0
V3000| EU| 55| 316.2| 10| 1.6
V5000| USA, Canada, EU| 38| 6.3| 10| 0.22

Note
The regulations require that the power used for the calculations is the maximum power in the transmit burst subject to allowance for source-based time-averaging. The calculations above are based upon platform maximum EIRP and worst case 100% duty cycle.

Troubleshooting

This section describes the troubleshooting steps and addresses frequently asked questions related to 60 GHz product deployment.

• Field diagnostics logs
• Setup IPv4 tunneling
• Link is not established
• Recovery mode

Field diagnostics logs
Download the logs to view more information about the error. To download the error logs select the node from the drop-down and click Download Logs .

After clicking Download Logs, downloading status is displayed.

To download the logs for self node, click Download Logs at the bottom and save the log file.

Setup issues in IPv4 tunneling
In IPv4 tunneling, if setup issues occurs then perform the below steps:

•  Click Configuration on the left pane, navigate to Network > Basic > Layer 2 Bridge and verify Enable Layer 2 bridge is selected.
• On the same page under Configuration Management, verify E2E Managed Config is selected.
• Click Configuration > Nodes > PoP DN > Networking > Layer 2 Bridge and verify Disable Broadcast Flood and Disable IPv6 are disabled.
• Ensure that PoP DN and DNs are in the same subnet and verify gateway is correct.

Link is not established

• If the link is not established between the nodes, then verify the below options: polarities, frequency and Golay codes.
• Select DN > Networking > Ethernet Ports, and ensure that specific Ethernet ports are enabled.
• Click Topology on left pane, go to Nodes and verify Status is Online Initiator.
• Click Topology on left pane, go to Nodes and verify Status is Online Initiator.
• Go to Performance and verify the graphs.
• Go to Radio and monitor the throughput capacity.
• If internal GPS is used, then verify Configuration > Nodes > Radio > GPS > Force GPS Disable is enabled.

PoP not online from E2E/cnMaetro GUI
This usually means that the PoP node is not able to talk to the E2E controller. Ensure that the PoP node has the E2E IPv6 configured properly. Also ensure that there is a route between the E2E controller and the PoP node, if they are not in the same VLAN. Try to ping the E2E from the PoP node (login to ssh).

Link not coming up

1. Ensure that the two ends of the radios can see each other (clear line of sight in between). If the link is using V3000, ensure that they are properly aligned.
2. Ensure that MAC address of the radios are configured correctly in the E2E Controller.
3. Ensure that GPS sync is not enabled if indoor and ensure that GPS sync is enabled if outdoor.
4. Ensure that both ends of the link has the same software version.
5. Ensure to configure country code on the E2E GUI.
6. Ensure that the two ends of the link use opposite polarity and Golay codes that matches each other.
7. Ensure that the remote ends can reach the E2E Controller – IPv6 configuration (if beamforming is successful but the remote end cannot reach back to the E2E, the E2E/cnMaestro GUI displays link status as up but the remote radio is offline).
8. If you already have experience setting up a link and you are trying to setup a daisy chain, ensure that there is not any interference caused by the existing link. For example, make sure that the two neighboring link use different Golay code.

Link does not come up after some configuration change
There is a possibility that the remote unit could be in a state that it uses different channel/Golay code/polarity from the near-end unit. Try to factory default the remote radio if possible. On the E2E Controller/cnMaestro, it shows that the link is up, but the remote radio is NOT online – This means that link is established but the remote end radio cannot reply back to the E2E controller. Check the E2E configuration to make sure that the IPv6 default gateway is configured correctly to allow a route between the E2E controller and the remote radio.

Link not having expected throughput performance

• Check the radio GUI to ensure that the link is running as the expected MCS mode when user data is passing through.
• Check to ensure that the Ethernet ports of the radios and the testing devices are negotiated to expected data rate (10Gbps).
• Ensure that your testing devices are capable of handling the throughput – run data throughput test by bypassing the radio link.
• Do not use radio internal iperf tool to test throughput.

Factory reset
Recovery mode is used to reset the configuration to the factory settings. To reset the configuration, perform the following steps:

• Go to Tools menu and click Factory Reset. Pop-up appears. Confirm to reset the device to factory reset
• Click Yes to reboot.
• After the reboot, access the device using IP address 169.254.1.1.
  Note: After factory reset, all configuration set to default mode.
