2.048Mbps Wireless Modem
TECHNICAL: 0118 931 2233
Figure 2-19. Several Co-located modems in a “star” configuration
Note: On the Master side, the 2.048Mbps Wireless Modem units with a SW version 1.6 and
up and HW version 2 must be used. On the Slave side, 2.048Mbps Wireless Modem units with
a SW version 1.6 and up can be used with either HW version 2 or previous HW version.
Step-1: Installing the Antennas
Install the antennas of the co-located units to minimize interference. The antennas of the
different units should be located as far from each other as possible, and no antenna should be
located in the radiating direction of any of the other antennas.
Step-2: Setting the relevant parameters
Set the Modem Rate, the Network I.D., the Master-Slave mode and the Number of Links to
synchronize according to these guidelines:
• Configure all units connected by the synchronization cable as “Master”. Configure the units
on the other side of the link as “Slave”.
• All units should have the same “Modem rate”, “Hopping standard”, “Hopping sequence”
and “Number of links to synchronize”. It is not possible to synchronize two 2.048Mbps
Wireless Modems that have different modem rates.
