About this Manual
This guide provides the system specifications of the SpiderCloud Wireless® Radio Node 330 (SCRN-330).
It includes detailed hardware installation instructions, the boot sequence, and expected LED behavior both
during the boot-up and under operating conditions. An appendix shows the radio node antenna patterns.
The primary audience for this guide includes network planners, system administrators and installation
personnel. It assumes you have knowledge about networking principles, networking configuration, site
preparation, powering, and experience in hardware installation and maintenance.



Product Overview
The SCRN-330 is a Time Division Duplexing (TDD) radio node that connects to a services node. It uses
GPS to achieve phase synchronization with macro networks. Each radio node support 128 connected
users and up to 8 bearers per UE. It supports peak transmit power of 2x250mW and uses Powered over
Ethernet plus (PoE+). This radio node supports CBRS technology, which enables services such as private
LTE networks and neutral host systems.
SpiderCloud’s scalable small cell system, called an Enterprise Radio Access Network (E-RAN), hides the




                                                        T
complexity of radio management and mobility and provides operators with a single touch-point to
aggregate and manage a large network of LTE small cells. The SCRN-330 leverages Carrier Aggregation
(CA) and Self-Organizing Networks (SON) capabilities.
                                  AF
The SCRN-330 is easy to install and connects to the existing enterprise LAN using standard Ethernet
cabling or to a dedicated LAN infrastructure deployed for use by the operator. SCRN-330 radio node are
managed by the SpiderCloud SCSN-9000 services node installed in the enterprise or in a centralized
location such as a data center.
The SCRN-330 has no fans and is convection cooled. Antennas are built-in with an orderable option for
SMA connectors for use with external antennas.
           R
The SCRN-330 utilizes on-chip Trusted Platform Module (TPM) functions to implement secure boot, and
establish certificate-based IPsec tunnel to SpiderCloud services node for all traffic. There is no
management or console port on the radio node. The radio node can be physically locked to prevent theft.

Ports
The radio node has one 1 Gigabit Ethernet port that supports a Category 5e (Cat 5e) or better twisted-pair
cable with an RJ-45 connector. Figure 5 shows the Ethernet port. There are two LEDs on the connector:
    •   Link: Steady green state indicates a normal Layer 2 link connection has been established.
           R
    •   Activity: Yellow blinking indicates data activity.

The Top-Panel LED
The radio node has one top-panel tricolor (RGB) 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. Status indications: boot, normal,
disabled, fault, emergency call, radio node tracking.

                                  AF
Input Power
The radio node receives its power from a standard Power Over Ethernet (PoE+) switch (typical) or injector.
The radio node is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ specification.
Per IEEE 802.3at, 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
           R
and the radio node.

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


When connecting the radio node to a PoE+ switch, ensure that the switch port is statically configured to
deliver minimum 25W of power.

              Some PoE switches may be factory configured to deliver lower power per port. If this is the
              case change the configuration during installation.

  To connect the PoE+ injector to a radio node
    Step 1 Attach the injector power cord to a power source.
    Step 2 Connect an unpowered Ethernet cable from a switch to the IN port on the injector.
    Step 3 Connect an Ethernet cable from the injector’s OUT port to the radio node. The injector will
           now inject power onto a pair of wire pairs in the cable. The radio node will expect a nominal
           48V DC input (57V max) from a typical PoE+ injector.

When possible, locate radio node units at least 6 meters (20 feet) from an external wall. This distance
maximizes indoor coverage and minimizes RF leakage outside the building. Refer to the E-RAN
Deployment Planning Guide for Dual-Mode Systems and E-RAN Deployment Planning Guide for LTE
Systems for more information about radio node placement.
When mounting near a wall or other obstruction, orient the mounting bracket such that the transmit
antenna faces towards the coverage area and faces away from the wall. Refer to Bracket Mounting and
            R
Cabling Guidelines on page 14 for more information.



Installation and Mount Bracket Assembly
           D


The radio node slides into one of two brackets for ceiling or wall mounting:
    •    a quarter-inch (0.64 centimeter) deep for cabling through a surface such as a wall or ceiling
    •    a 1.25 inch (3.18 centimeters) deep for exposed cabling along a hard surface such as brick or
         cinder block

Bracket Mounting and Cabling Guidelines
Incorrectly cabling and mounting a radio node can result in crushed cables and loss of communications to
the unit. Follow these guidelines in cabling the radio node and mounting it on the bracket:
    •    Ensure that the cabling is properly routed and dressed.
    •    Ensure that the radio node is fully inserted into the mount bracket so that it locks into place and
         is flush. A correctly installed cable should at no time during installation impede inserting the
         radio node into the mount bracket.
    •    Secure the radio node to the mount bracket with a padlock or tie wrap to provide physical
         security.

    •   When mounting the radio node vertically, orient the bracket such that the bracket keyholes
        have the narrow side up as shown in Figure 10.

Typical Radio Node Mounting Options
Radio nodes can be mounted on a wide number of surfaces including the following typical surfaces:
    •   Light grill: Use bolts, nuts, and washers to secure the universal mount bracket using holes in
        the light grill. Adjust the universal mounting bracket until the bracket and light grill holes align.
    •   Directly on the wall or ceiling: Use drywall screws to secure the universal mount bracket
        directly to sheetrock or plasterboard on the wall or ceiling.
    •   Mud or plaster ring: Secure the universal mount bracket directly on the wall or ceiling as
        above with a 3 1/4 inch (8.25 centimeter) mud or plaster ring between the mount bracket and
        the mounting service and run the Ethernet cable through ring’s hole.
    •   Existing infrastructure: Secure the universal mount bracket to existing infrastructure as long
        as the radio node RF propagation or existing installed equipment is not adversely impacted.
    •   Non-metal tiles: Use bracing for rear support and mount the radio node in the center of the tile
        for even weight distribution. Ensure that the bracing is the same width as the tile.

  Boot Sequence:
    1. When the radio node is powered on, the device sends a DHCP Request to the services node
       DHCP server to get IP information. The DHCP server is configured on the services node to
           R
       respond only to DHCP requests from SpiderCloud Wireless radio nodes. Refer to the SpiderCloud
       OS (SCOS) Administrator Guide for more information about the services node DHCP server
       configuration.
    2. The server responds with the IP addresses of the radio node and the services node (the master of
          D

       the radio node).
    3. Using its own IP address, the radio node sends a Join Request message to the services node.
       The radio node seeks to join the cellular network.
    4. The services node responds with a Join Response message indicating whether the radio node is
       allowed to join the network or not.
    5. The arrival sequence begins. The services node sends the SpiderCloud software image to the
       radio node.
    6. The radio node boots up the received SpiderCloud software package.
    7. The radio node establishes an IPsec tunnel with the services node. Based upon the radio
       configuration, the radio node loads the appropriate protocol elements and joins the network.

Radio Node LED Boot Sequence
The radio node state machine is sequential and progresses in the following order:
                  State 0 -> State 1 -> State 2 -> State 3 -> State 4 -> State 5 -> State 6
A normal boot sequence transitions through all these states sequentially and the LED state transitions
accordingly. If the radio node fails to transition to the next state, the system restarts the boot sequence,
starting with State 0. You can determine the progress during the booting stages by observing the LED
color transitions. On failure, the last LED state will display the state that encountered the failure. Table 6
