Remote Mount - For a remote mount configuration, the ODU is attached to the pole with an ODU Mount Kit. In some other scenarios the

ODU will not mount directly to the antenna. This would most likely be the case when a Proxim radio is being incorporated into an existing

antenna which does not offer a slip-fit or compatible waveguide flange. In this scenario the ODU will need to be mounted near the antenna

and a Waveguide transition, adapter is utilized to convert the ODU and Antenna interfaces.

PART II - ANTENNA & ANTENNA ACCESSORIES

The installation and putting in operation of Tsunami™ GX800 microwave link can make only by the manufacturer or its authorized com-

pany.

ODU Mounting Options

Most installations will utilize the Direct-Mount option to the antenna. In some cases however other options will be required. For frequencies

of 6-11GHz some integration prefers an all Indoor solution. This requires that the ODU be mounted to a rack, wall, or cable tray. Providing

an option for this is required. Other installations will require the ODU be connected to a non-Direct Mount antenna with a different mat-

ing system. In both cases the ‘Remote Mount’ bracket will be adequate. ODU is mounted behind the parabolic antenna. In dependence on

requested application distances there are available antennas with diameters of 30, 60 and 120 cm. To bridge the larger distances the active

retranslation can be used.

Direct Mount - In a direct mount configuration, the ODU is attached via clips directly to the antenna which is fitted with an ODU interface.

This option will require the most additional pieces as well as investigation/planning. Understanding the appropriate flange type on the existing

Antenna can be a challenge and finding an adapter to convert between the 2 can be equally challenging. Most distributors can aid in this.

Unlike the common way of directly fixed on the antenna body, in the split mounting method, ODU is connected to the antenna through a

flexible waveguide, thus, an adapter, which is fixed to the end of ODU in one side and connects to the waveguide in the other, shall be used

when no standard flange interface is available for ODU.

Main functions of ODU:

Fixing the ODU on the mast

Adapting ODU interface with standard flange, The ODU adapter can also support the coupler when 1+1 mode is used. Essentially, ODU

adapter is a component which adapts ODU/coupler with the waveguide and fixes the ODU/coupler on the mast.
