MGMT LED

LED remains lit to indicate the boot sequence is underway.

Initializing airFiber Software

When the airFiber application begins to boot under

airOS®, the Signal 4 LED goes from solidly on to a 2.5 Hz ash. This continues until the

‐

11FX is fully booted.

Signal Level

Once fully booted, the Signal 1-4 LEDs act as a bar graph showing how

close the AF

‐

11FX is to ideal aiming. This is auto-scaled based on the link range, the

antenna gains, and the congured TX power of the remote AF

‐

11FX. Each Signal LED

has three possible states: On, Flashing, and Oﬀ. All Signal LEDs would be solidly on in an

ideal link. For example, if the link has a 1 dB loss, the Signal 4 LED will ash; a 2 dB loss

and the Signal 4 LED will turn oﬀ. The full bar graph LED states are shown below.

1/3, then the numbers on the second radio’s Duplexer should be 3/1.

Installing the Duplexers for MIMO Mode

Note:

MIMO operation requires two licenses, one per polarization and two

Duplexers of the same band type.

Note:

Position the low channel and high channel ports to yield the required

transmit and receive frequencies. Also, ensure that the numbers on the right-

side Duplexer are in the reverse order of the numbers on the left-side Duplexer.

WARNING:

Tighten the collars alternately, a half turn at a time, until both are

fully tightened. Failure to do so may result in damage to the Duplexer.

6. Repeat steps 1-5 for the other radio to be used in the link, ensuring that the numbers on

the second radio’s Duplexers are in the reverse order of the numbers on the rst radio’s

Duplexers.

Note:

For example, if the numbers on the rst radio’s Duplexers are (left to right)

2/4 and 4/2, the numbers on the second radio’s Duplexers should be 4/2 and 2/4.

Follow the instructions for the source of power that you are using: Power over Ethernet or

DC Power.

Power Over Ethernet

WARNING:

Use only the included adapter, model POE-50-60W. Failure to do so can

damage the unit and void the product warranty.

DC Power

1. Connect a DC power cable to the Terminal Block. (The +VDC and GND can be

connected to either terminal.)

2. Connect the other end of the DC power cable to a DC power supply that supplies

+50VDC.

WARNING:

Applying a negative voltage such as -48VDC will damage the radio.

3. Connect the DC power supply to its source.

Surge Protection

For added protection, install two surge suppressors, such as the Ubiquiti Ethernet Surge

Protector, model ETH-SP-G2, at the end of each link. Install the rst surge protector within

one meter of the airFiber DATA port, and install the second surge protector at the ingress

point of the location housing the wired network equipment.

Alignment

Tips

To accurately align the airFiber radios for best performance, you MUST align only one

end of the link at a time.

You may need to use additional hardware to compensate for issues such as the

improper orientation of a mounting pole or signicant elevation diﬀerences between

airFiber radios.

Establishing a Link

Adjust the positions of the Master and the Slave to establish a link. The following section

features the airFiber X antenna, AF-11G35:

Note:

The Master must be aimed rst at the Slave because the Slave does not

transmit any RF signal until it detects transmissions from the Master.
