About this ManualThis guide provides the system specifications of the SpiderCloud® Radio Node 200 (SCRN-200). The primary audience for this guide includes system engineers, network planners, system administrators and installation personnel.

System OverviewThe SCRN-200 is a low-cost, high-performance 3G small cell designed for indoor use. The radio node complies with 3GPP Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) standards, and supports up to 32 simultaneous channels, a peak downlink rate of 21 Mbps and a peak uplink rate of 5 Mbps.

The SCRN-200 enables mobile operators to offer dedicated, in-building coverage and capacity for UMTS services. It is easy to install, is powered over Ethernet, and connects to the existing enterprise LAN using standard Ethernet cabling or to a dedicated LAN infrastructure deployed for use by the operator. Radio nodes are managed by the SpiderCloud services node access controller, typically installed in the enterprise DMZ.

Radio Node ModelsTable 1 displays the orderable configurations of the SCRN-200 radio node:

Table 1: SCRN-200 Radio Node Configurations

Radio Node Model Description

SCRN-200-1 UMTS Band I, internal antennas, 20dBm

SCRN-200-1E UMTS Band I, external antennas, 20dBm

SCRN-200-241 UMTS Band I, internal antennas, 24dBm

SCRN-200-241E UMTS Band I, external antennas, 24dBm

SCRN-200-242 UMTS Band II, internal antennas, 24dBm

SCRN-200-242E UMTS Band II, external antennas, 24dBm

SCRN-200-244 UMTS Band IV, internal antennas, 24dBm

SCRN-200-244E UMTS Band IV, external antennas, 24dBm



AntennasThe radio node uses two vertically-polarized, omnidirectional 2 dBi nominal gain antennas. Both antennas receive, only one antenna transmits. Radio nodes contain either internal antennas or two antenna ports with TNC connectors for external antennas.

Figure 4 Typical External Antennas

For regulatory compliance, use only antennas certified by SpiderCloud Wireless.

PortsThe radio node has one 10/100 Ethernet port that supports a Category 5e (Cat 5e) or better twisted-pair cable with an RJ-45 connector. Figure 5 on page 9 shows the 10/100 port. There are two LEDs on the connector:

• Link: Steady green state indicates a normal Layer 2 link connection has been established.

• Activity: Yellow blinking indicates data activity.

Figure 5 Ethernet Port

To maximize antenna transmission, SpiderCloud Wireless recommends not installing the radio node inside a metallic enclosure.

Tip

EthernetPort

Link Activity



The radio node for use with external antennas has two antenna ports with TNC connectors labeled A and B. Connector A transmits and receives. Connector B is receive only.

Figure 6 Antenna Port TNC Connectors

The Top-Panel LEDThe radio node has one top-panel tricolor LED to indicate power and status. This is the only LED visible under normal operating conditions. When the radio node initially boots the LED cycles through a number of colors and flashing behaviors until it is fully operational.

Figure 7 Radio Node Tricolor LED

Input PowerThe radio node receives its power from a standard PoE switch (typical) or injector. The radio node is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3af Power Over Ethernet (PoE) specification. Per IEEE 802.3af, use standard Cat 5e or better twisted-pair cable with a maximum length restriction of 100 meters (328 feet) for PoE. This restriction minimizes power loss between the PoE power source and the radio node.

Power is distributed over two pairs of the four available pairs in Cat 5e cables. The radio node can accept power on either used or un-used pairs.
