Assembly
The MetroLinq™ Standard Bracket and Long Range Precision Bracket
(both ordered separately) are designed for wall and pole mounting
(25 mm - 80 mm pole diameter). Choose what is best for your
location and select hardware accordingly.
Grounding
Welcome to MetroLinq™
Interference-Free Gigabit Wireless
Ensure all four position-locking bolts on the Standard
Bracket are tight before installing.
1
Install the Standard Bracket onto MetroLinq™ using four M8
bolts, lock washers, and flat washers.
Ensure the structure on which the unit is to be mounted is
properly grounded and in compliance with ETSI ETS 300
253.
Verify that there is a good electrical connection to a
grounding point (no paint or isolating surface treatment).
Use the included (M4) screw to attach a grounding wire (not
included) to the grounding point on the unit, and then to
ground.
Caution:
The earth connection must not be removed
unless all supply connections have been disconnected.

Power Up
Standard Bracket Alignment
IgniteNet strongly recommends using the ICC-SCOPE-9x50
Alignment Scope for alignment. To install, place the scope on top of
the MetroLinq™ housing and secure it with its thumb screw.
Connect an Ethernet cable from the MetroLinq™ ETH PoE IN
port to the PoE port on the power supply.
Connect Ethernet cable from the “LAN” port on the power
supply to your LAN device.
Connect the power cord to a nearby AC power source.

Note:
Do not adjust bolts A and B without first loosening 1
and 4 respectively.
Loosen coarse adjustment bolts 2 and 3 and set initial
alignment. Don’t worry, you don’t have to be too accurate
yet. After you have set the coarse alignment, tighten bolts 2
and 3.
Loosen the horizontal fine-tune adjustment bolt 4. Use fine-
tune bolt "B" to optimize the horizontal position. Re-tighten
bolt 4.
Loosen the vertical fine-tune adjustment bolt 1. Use fine-
tune bolt "A" to optimize the vertical position. Re-tighten
bolt 1.
Initial alignment should be based on optical or visual
alignment. After you achieve this, repeat steps 2 and 3 while
watching the 60 GHz signal strength LED. Optimize position
to the LED indicator.
Ensure all bolts are fully tightened, remove the alignment
scope (if installed), and enjoy Gigabit interference-free
wireless.

Safety and Regulatory Information
FCC Class B
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following
measures:
◆Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
◆Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
◆Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected
◆Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate this equipment.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter.
The 5600-5650MHz band is disabled by software during manufacturing
and cannot be changed by the end user. This device meets all the other
requirements specified in Part 15E, Section 15.407 of the FCC Rules.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth
for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed
and operated with minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator and
your body.
Professional installation is required.
Note: The country code selection is for non-US models only and is not
available on all US models. Per FCC regulation, all Wi-Fi products
marketed in the US must be fixed to US operation channels only.
Professional Installation Instructions
1. Installation personal
This product is designed for specific applications and needs to be
installed by a qualified person who has RF and related rules knowledge.
The general user shall not attempt to install or change the settings.
2. Installation location
The product shall be installed at a location where the radiating antenna
can be kept 20 cm from nearby persons in normal operation conditions
to meet regulatory RF exposure requirements.
To configure your MetroLinq, connect your computer to the
device through the LAN port of the power supply or directly
to the ETH1 port on the device.
The default IP mode is DHCP client, so if the device obtains
an address from a DHCP server on the network, then use
that IP (you can use the Discovery Tool from the IgniteNet
support site to find the DHCP address). If the device does
not obtain a DHCP address, it reverts to the fallback IP of
192.168.1.20 and you can access it on that IP. Direct your
web browser to the correct IP and log in.
username: root
password: admin123
After you have logged in, follow the steps in the Setup
Wizard to configure the device for your network.

This antenna is normally mounted on a mast and is vertically polarized.
Warning:
Please carefully select the installation position and make sure that the final output power does not exceed the limit set force in relevant
rules. The violation of the rule could lead to serious federal penalty.
The maximum e.i.r.p. at any elevation angle above 30 degrees as measured from the horizon must not exceed 125 mW (21 dBm).
The antenna must be installed completely perpendicular to the horizon.
