4.Place the other mounting bracket section on the two bracket mounting screws and loosely secure them with the bolts supplied. These bolts are used later to mount the radio unit to a pole (as shown in the second figure below).

STEP 4. CONNECT THE CABLES

When you initially install the radios, you should configure the radios in the same room. A brief overview of the recommended computer/network configuration follows.

Connect one radio to a switch or hub; connect a PC to the same switch or hub.

Connect the other radio to another switch or hub and connect another PC to the same switch or hub.

Make sure the two switches or hubs are not connected on the same network.

Make the other necessary cable connections, as described in the following text.

An interface cable with an 8-pin DIN connector and a weather-tight RJ45 cable are supplied in the product package. You also can construct your own interface cable. See “Constructing an Interface Cable” in Tsunami QuickBridge II T1/E1 Installation and Management for instructions.

Note: Maximum cable lengths to be used with the Tsunami QuickBridge are as follows:

GPS: 25 feet (approx. 8 m)

T1/E1: 655 feet (approx. 200 m)

Power/Ethernet: 246 feet (approx. 75 m)

Maximum cable length from the power source to the QuickBridge unit is 75 m, but the cable from the power source to the next device is a total of 100 m. So if you connect a 75 m cable to the QuickBridge unit, you can use a 25 m cable to connect the power supply to your PC or switch.

All cable and waveguides used should be UL-approved for the appropriate environment.

The following steps detail how to connect the cables between the radio, power & Ethernet adapter, and your network.

For each radio/power & Ethernet adapter set, perform these steps:

1.Position the radios approximately 25 feet from each other. Place them on a tabletop or shipping box.

2.Connect the 8-pin DIN connector on the supplied interface cable to the 8-pin DIN port on the power & Ethernet adapter.
