TRACER Monitored Protection Switch (MPS)
Before you begin...
Required Components
•
(2) TRACER Baseband Processor (BBP) and RF Converter (RFC) rackmount units
Or,
•
(2) TRACER 4103 or 4203 integrated rackmount radio units
•
RS-232 interface cable and VT100 terminal (or a PC with VT100 emulator software) for connecting to the unit
•
(2) RS-232 (MALE) to RJ-45 (FEMALE) adapter (ADTRAN P/N 3196ADPT010) for creating the VT100 management chain (included in
the TRACER MPS shipment)
•
(2) 8-conductor RJ-45 to RJ-45 straight-through cable for creating the VT100 management chain (included in the TRACER MPS
shipment)
•
(4) Straight-through T1 cables to connect the TRACER BBP or 4103/4203 T1 interfaces to the MPS (2 are included in each TRACER
shipment)
•
(2) N-Type (MALE) to SMA (MALE) cables for connecting the antenna interfaces (TRACER units) to the TRACER MPS (included in the
TRACER MPS shipment)
•
18, 20, or 22 AWG dual-conductor cable for connecting the alarm contacts between the TRACER BBP or 4103/4203 and the TRACER
MPS; also needed for connecting the MPS to an external alarm monitoring system
•
Antenna, mounting hardware, and feedline cable
•
21 to 63 VDC power source (available from ADTRAN)
•
(2) Straight-through T1cables to connect the TRACER MPS to other CPE equipment (included in the TRACER MPS shipment)
Or,
•
(2) T1 crossover cables to connect the TRACER MPS T1 interfaces to the public-switched network (included in the TRACER MPS
shipment)
About this Quick Start Guide...
This guide contains information for installing your TRACER MPS system. ADTRAN recommends that the entire TRACER link be tested on a
lab bench prior to installation in the field.
Verify the existence of an adequate microwave path for each hop or link to ensure that a point-to-point microwave system is feasible for your
particular application. Record the frequency of your microwave system (2.4 GHz or 5.8 GHz) and be sure to configure the Frequency Band
menu option appropriately before operating your TRACER MPS. For more details, refer to Reviewing the Menus on page 4.

Summary
2 1 Rackmount the Units Install the TRACER MPS system in a location that requires minimal antenna feedline length (the loss in this cable directly affectsoverall system performance). The TRACER MPS should be mounted in a rack between the two BBP components of the TRACER systems (see Figure 1 on page...
3 2 Creating the VT100 Chain A single VT100 connection through the TRACER MPS provides access to both the primary (MAIN) and SECONDARY TRACER units. Follow the steps below to create the VT100 chain. 1. Connect the RS-232 port (DB-25) on the rear panel of the MAIN TRACER BBP to the TRACER MPS VT100 i...
