Safety Information
Follow the guidelines in this section to ensure proper operation and safe use of the bridge.
FCC Safety Compliance Statement
The FCC, with its action in ET Docket
Safety Precautions
Warning Do not locate the antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come into contact with such circuits. When installing the antenna, take extreme care not to come into contact with such circuits, as they may cause serious injury or death. For proper installation and grounding of the antenna, please refer to national and local codes (e.g. U.S.:NFPA 70, National Electrical Code, Article 810, in Canada: Canadian Electrical Code, Section 54).
Each year hundreds of people are killed or injured when attempting to install an antenna. In many of these cases, the victim was aware of the danger of electrocution, but did not take adequate steps to avoid the hazard.
For your safety, and to help you achieve a good installation, please read and follow these safety precautions. They may save your life!
1.If you are installing an antenna for the first time, for your own safety as well as others, seek professional assistance.
2.Select your installation site with safety, as well as performance in mind. Remember: electric power lines and phone lines look alike. For your safety, assume that any overhead line can kill you.
3.Call your electric power company. Tell them your plans and ask them to come look at your proposed installation. This is a small inconvenience considering your life is at stake.
4.Plan your installation carefully and completely before you begin. Successful raising of a mast or tower is largely a matter of coordination. Each person should be assigned to a specific task, and should know what to do and when to do it. One person should be in charge of the operation to issue instructions and watch for signs of trouble.
5.When installing your antenna, remember:
a.Do not use a metal ladder.
b.Do not work on a wet or windy day.
Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge Hardware Installation Guide.
Chapter 2 Installation Overview
Safety Information
c.Do dress
6.If the assembly starts to drop, get away from it and let it fall. Remember, the antenna, mast, cable, and metal guy wires are all excellent conductors of electrical current. Even the slightest touch of any of these parts to a power line complete an electrical path through the antenna and the installer: you!
7.If any part of the antenna system should come in contact with a power line, don???t touch it or try to remove it yourself. Call your local power company. They will remove it safely.
If an accident should occur with the power lines call for qualified emergency help immediately.
Typical Bridge Installation Components
The bridge is designed to be installed in an outdoor environment, typically, on a tower or a tall building. A typical bridge installation diagram is shown in Figure
Figure
88836
Note Ground wires must comply with Sections 810 and 820 of the National Electrical Code and Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code.
Caution To ensure correct installation and grounding, install the bridge in compliance with your local and national electrical codes: National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 70, National Electrical Code (U.S.); Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA 22.1 (Canada); and if local or national electrical codes are not available, refer to IEC 364, Part 1 through 7 (other countries).

Bridge LEDs
Bridge Brackets
The two bridge brackets mount on the back side of the bridge housing. Each bracket mounts on two screw posts on opposite ends of the unit. The support pin on the bridge bracket must be facing the side of the unit. These support pins are used to suspend the bridge in the notches on the mast mounting bracket until you secure the mounting bolts.
The bridge brackets must be positioned to obtain the correct antenna polarization that matches the remote antenna. The bridge housing contains an antenna polarization mark consisting of an arrow on the side of the housing. When the bridge is positioned so that the arrow is pointing up, the bridge antenna is vertically polarized. For horizontal polarization, the arrow should be pointing from left to right. All bridges must use the same antenna polarization for best operation.
Mast Bracket
The mast bracket attaches to a mast or tower support and is used to secure the bridge.The procedure for attaching the mounting bracket to the support depends on the pipe diameter, as shown in Table

Bridge LEDs
When you power up the bridge for the first time, it starts in a special installation mode. The LEDs indicate the startup status, operating mode, association status, and received signal strength. This information simplifies the process of activating the link and positioning the antenna from the bridge mounting location.
The LEDs are mounted on the back of the housing near the connectors (see Figure

Aligning the Antenna Using LED Indications
You can align the integrated antenna using LEDs after the bridge successfully associates with a remote bridge. In the installation mode before association to another bridge, the Install LED blinks amber. If the bridge associates to a root bridge, the Install LED turns continuous amber. If the bridge does not associate to a root bridge in the first 60 seconds, the Install LED blinks green to indicate beacons are being transmitted and the bridge is waiting for another
Note For the signal level (dBm), a smaller number represents a stronger signal because the signal level is given as a negative value.

Chapter 3 Mounting and Alignment Overview
Aligning the Antenna Using the RSSI Voltage
When using LEDs to maximize the signal, adjust the antenna until as many LEDs as possible are turned on and the rest are blinking as fast as possible.
Aligning the Antenna Using the RSSI Voltage
The RSSI port produces a DC voltage that is proportional to the received signal level. The RSSI voltage is available whenever a signal is present, regardless of the bridge mode (installation or normal), association status, or pre configuration role setting. In Install mode, the RSSI voltage provides an instantaneous reading as you move the antenna. In Normal mode, the RSSI reading has a delay, so you must stop moving the antenna and wait before taking your reading. The RSSI port is a female BNC connector on the bridge housing (see Figure
The RSSI voltage increases linearly with signal level as shown in Table
Note A larger RSSI voltage reading indicates a stronger signal.
The voltage varies from 0 to 2.7 volts for signals between

Overview
Overview
You can double the throughput, or create a standby link, by stacking two bridges. A stacked installation consists of two bridge systems installed at the same physical location. For detailed mounting instructions refer to the Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge Mounting Instructions that shipped with your bridge.
Choosing a Second Mounting Location
You can mount the second bridge system in the same general location as the first as long as you separate the antennas by at least 8 ft (2.44 m). For example, in a
Interference path
95008
Chapter 4 Stacking Bridges
Verifying Isolation
Step 4 At each site location, temporarily install the second link 2 bridge, positioning the antenna toward the intended location of the corresponding link 2 remote antenna.
Note You can improve system isolation by using different polarizations for the two local antennas. For example, if the link 1 system has vertical polarization, assemble the link 2 system for horizontal polarization.
Verifying Isolation
Isolation measurements are valid only if the link 1 bridges are operating at maximum power. By default, the bridge operates at maximum power.
To verify signal isolation, refer to Figure
Step 1 Ensure that the link 1 bridges are operating at full power and bridge A is configured as the root bridge.
Step 2 At Site 1, measure the isolation between bridges A and B:
a.Activate the link 2 bridge (bridge B) as a
b.Connect a voltmeter to the RSSI port of bridge B, and verify that the voltage is 1.95 V
c.Slowly rotate the bridge B antenna a few degrees to the left and to the right and verify that the RSSI level does not rapidly spike above 1.95 V. If the voltage peaks above 1.95 V, move the bridge farther away and repeat this step.
Step 3 Go to the remote Site 2 location to measure the isolation between bridges A and D:
a.Activate the link 2 bridge (bridge D) as a
b.Connect a voltmeter to the RSSI port of bridge D and align the bridge D antenna with bridge A so that the RSSI voltage is maximized.
c.When the antennas are fully aligned, if the RSSI voltage level is greater than 1.95 V, the bridge sites are very close. Reduce the output power on all bridges at both sites (bridges A, B, C, and D) to 12 dBm.
d.If you are still unable to reduce the RSSI voltage level to 1.95 V, change the polarization of the link 2 bridges (bridges B and D). For example; change the antenna polarization from vertical to horizontal.
Step 4 At Site 2, measure the isolation between bridge C and D by following these steps:
a.Turn off bridge A for this measurement.
b.Activate the link 2 bridge (bridge D) as a
c.Connect a voltmeter to the RSSI port of bridge D and verify that the voltage is 1.95 V
