EN Radio Installation on Barge

Step 2: Barge antenna (Ubiquity Rocket AC)

Step 2.1:

Open

Find a post on the roof where the rocket can be mounted.
Requirements are:

1. Free line of sight to all cages

2. Post diameter: <80mm

3. If the angle between the cages, seen from the post is more than 100 degrees, we need a second rocket (See illustration) 

Step 2.2

Open

Mount the rocket to the post. Set the tilt to 0 degrees. Turn the rocket so it is facing the center of all cages that have equipment installed.

Step 2.3

Set the PoE-Cable (Network Cable) inside the “PoE/Main”-port on the rocket AC.

Pull the other end of the PoE-Cable inside the barge so it reaches the barge network (often referred to as the “server-room” or “office”).

Step 2.4

Connecting the Rocket:
1x network cable goes between rocket and PoE-injector (Follows in the same package as the rocket)

• On Rocket: Connect to “PoE/Main port”

• On PoE-injector: Connect to “PoE”

1. Connect a network cable from PoE-injector to your barge network

• On PoE-injector: Connect to “LAN”- port

• On your barge network: Described by us or your network manager.

Step 2.5

The other end of the LAN/Ethernet cable shall be plugged into a dedicated port from the customer server/EdgeRouterX/Switch. (Or something else we have determined)

Step 2.6

In co-op with CageEye employee you can measure the signal strength between rocket and bullets, and verify that the signal strength is approved for operation.
