Canopy CMM4 Features

For service providers, it is critical to offer reliable, cost-effective solutions to their customers. The Cluster Management Module 4 (CMM4) allows network operators to reduce the time and labor cost of system installation and maintenance in Canopy clusters. The CMM4 provides reliable GPS network synchronization with a more integrated solution including:

• Nine access ports
• Full featured switch
• Gigabit Ethernet port
• Integrated lightning surge suppression

Designed to deliver consistent and reliable wireless broad- band service, the Canopy system gracefully scales to sup- port large deployments. The CMM4 is the heart of the systems synchronization capability which allows network operators to re-use frequencies and add capacity while ensuring consistency in the quality of service to customers. With synchronization, subscribers can experience carrier grade service - even those at the outer edge of the network. The CMM4 has a large housing to accommodate an alternate operator-supplied packet switch, if necessary. It is powered via a new 30V DC power pack. Additional Ports The CMM4 offers one additional port than the CMMmicro, for a total of nine ports. There are eight 10/100Base-T ports and one copper 10/100/1000Base-T port. Full Featured Switch The CMM4 can be managed with a Network Manager using SNMP, Web Browser, Telnet, or the console port. It supports Port-based VLAN and IEEE802.1Q VLAN Tagging and GVRP. The CMM4 is also supported by Canopys Prizm Element Management System (EMS). Gigabit Ethernet port In many cases, network operators need to provide high speed data. For network operators using high speed Point-to-Point links, this is critical. The CMM4 now has a single Gigabit Ethernet port for terrestrial feeds or high speed links. Integrated GPS Lightning Suppression The CMM4 comes standard with a built-in GPS lightning suppression system. In addition to this built in feature, the CMM4 also supports dual power supply input redundancy. (Power supply sold separately).

Canopy CMM4 Requirements & Uses

The Canopy CMM4 is used to power the PMP 430 cluster which requires the 56VDC power. Because of this the CMM4 requires the purchase of a SGPN4076 56VDC power supply and SGKN4427A line cord. In cases where -48 VDC power is available and powering from the -48 VDC is desired (for example, in some telecommunications huts), procure a -48 VDC to +56 VDC converter such as a Mean Well Model SD-350C-48 and install between the -48 VDC source and the +56 VDC power supply.
