Any Ethernet device can be
connected to the AW5800m. The
AW5800m functions in place of an
Ethernet cable and provides a
transparent wireless point to point
Ethernet cable replacement. Crossover cables are not necessary as the
AW5800m automatically senses the
device (client or switch).

Troubleshooting:

No Power LED:
Check the power connections.
No Radio Link LED:
The radio is looking for its matched partner. If both units are powered up and the Power LEDs
are active they may be too far away to create the radio connection. Try other locations that
may have a less obstructed path or try to reorient the antennas.
Directional antennas get their best range when they are oriented to point directly at each
other with the antenna elements oriented in the same plane (eg. vertically or horizontally)
Radio LINK LED on but Link Quality Indicator is low:
The units may be too far away to create a good radio connection. Try other locations that
may have a less obstructed path or try to reorient the antennas.
No Ethernet LINK LED:
Check your network connections.
Installing Multiple systems in close proximity:
See the online installation tutorial and FAQ at www.avalanwireless.com
Still not working?
Temporarily use an Ethernet cable to see if the network is working over a wired connection.
If an Ethernet cable does not work then the problem is with the network.

Advanced Settings:
Automatic frequency selection mode (DIP switches – all OFF for automatic mode)
The AW5800m is designed to automatically select and continuously optimize the performance of its
radio channel. The radio channel is monitored to ensure it is providing low error rates necessary for
successful radio transmission. In the event that the error rate rises, the AW5800m will autonomously
change to a new channel. There are 58 non-overlapping channels.
Manual frequency selection mode
This mode enables the user to restrict the operation of the AW5800m to a specific channel. This can
be done by setting DIP switches 3-8 as shown in the table below.

Site survey mode (DIP switch 2 - default is OFF for normal operation)
In this mode the AW5800m can perform a site survey. With this mode activated the radios send and
receive at 100% capacity by transceiving self-generated simulated data. The installer can monitor the
Link Quality display to assess channel quality while optimizing antennae orientation. The installer
can manually select each channel to evaluate performance and identify the best channels for
operation. By identifying channels with poor performance it is possible to identify possible interferers
and use “manual frequency selection mode” to avoid portions of the band or select a fixed operating
frequency. Important note: Ethernet traffic does not get transported while the radios are in this
mode.
LED Display mode (DIP switch 1 - default is OFF for normal LED display)
In this mode the display LEDs of the Master unit can be turned off for low power applications (solar).

FCC Notices
Adherence to the following is required:
IMPORTANT: The AW5800m OEM RF Modules have been certified by the FCC for use with other products without any
further certification (as per FCC section 2.1091). Changes or modifications not expressly approved by AvaLAN could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
IMPORTANT: OEMs must test their final product to comply with unintentional radiators (FCC section 15.107 and 15.109)
before declaring compliance of their final product to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
IMPORTANT: The AW5800m OEM RF Modules have been certified for fixed base station and mobile applications. If
modules will be used for portable applications, the device must undergo SAR testing.
FCC-Approved Antennas (5800MHz)
Fixed Base Station and Mobile Applications
AvaLAN Modules are pre-FCC approved for use in fixed base station and mobile applications. When the antenna is
mounted at least 20 cm (8”) from nearby persons, the application is considered a mobile application.
Portable Applications and SAR Testing
When the antenna is mounted closer than 20 cm to nearby persons, then the application is considered “portable” and
requires an additional test be performed on the final product. This test is called the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing
and measures the emissions from the module and how they affect the person.
RF Exposure
(This statement must be included as a CAUTION statement in OEM product manuals.)
WARNING: This equipment is approved only for mobile and base station transmitting devices. Antenna(s) used for this
transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be colocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
To fulfill FCC Certification requirements:
1. Integrator must ensure required text [Figure 1] is clearly placed on the outside of the final product.
2. AW5800m Module may be used only with Approved Antennas types that have been tested with this module.

Table 1. Type certified Antennae
Antenna Warning WARNING: This device has been tested with Reverse Polarity SMA connectors with the antennas
listed in Table 1 Appendix A. When integrated into OEM products, fixed antennas require installation preventing end-users
from replacing them with non-approved antennas. Antennas not listed in the tables must be tested to comply with FCC
Section 15.203 (unique antenna connectors) and Section 15.247 (emissions). To reduce potential radio interference to
other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is
not more than that permitted for successful communication."
IC (Industry Canada) Certification
Labeling requirements for Industry Canada are similar to those of the FCC. A clearly visible label on the outside of the
final product enclosure must display the following text:
Contains Model AW5800 Radio, IC: 5303A-AW5800M
Figure 2. Required IC Label for OEM products containing the AvaLAN AW5800m OEM RF Module
Integrator is responsible for its product to comply with IC ICES-003 & FCC Part 15, Sub. B - Unintentional Radiators.
ICES-003 is the same as FCC Part 15 Sub. B and Industry Canada accepts FCC test report or CISPR 22 test report for
compliance with ICES-003.
To fulfill IC Certification requirements:
1. Integrator must ensure required text [Figure 2] is clearly placed on the outside of the final product.
2. This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and having a maximum gain of 23 dB.
3. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 23 dB are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
