Connecting mmRH-3602/3603 Radio Heads to a Bidirectional System

Complete the following steps to connect mmRH-3602/3603 radio heads to a bidirectional mmWave Transceiver System.

Note Connect the modules of the mmWave Transceiver System for standard use before connecting mmRH-3602/3603 radio heads.
  1. Connect the DIGITAL I/O connector of the PXIe-3620 front panel to the DIO adapter module using an EPLSP cable.
  2. Connect the DIO adapter module to the DIO 1 connector[1] of the mmRH-3602/3603 back panel using an HDMI(m)-to-mini-HDMI(m) cable.
  3. Connect the RX LO1 connector of the PXIe-3620 front panel to the LO IN RX connector of the mmRH-3602/3603 back panel using an SMA(m)-to-SMA(m) cable.
  4. Connect the RX IF IN connector of the PXIe-3620 front panel to the IF OUT connector of the mmRH-3602/3603 back panel using an SMA(m)-to-SMA(m) cable.
  5. Connect the TX LO1 connector of the PXIe-3620 front panel to the LO IN TX connector of the mmRH-3602/3603 back panel using an SMA(m)-to-SMA(m) cable.
  6. Connect the TX IF OUT connector of the PXIe-3620 front panel to the IF IN connector of the mmRH-3602/3603 back panel using an SMA(m)-to-SMA(m) cable.

  7. If you have a MIMO system, repeat steps 1 through 6 for the second PXIe-3620, PXIe-3610, and PXIe-3630 modules in the chassis, as well as an additional mmRH-3602/3603.
  8. Repeat steps 1 through 8 for the second RX/TX chassis.
  9. Connect all mmWave radio heads to power.

1 You may connect the DIO adapter module to the DIO 0 connector instead of the DIO 1 connector. The choice of connector does not affect results.
