Introduction
The S1000R is a variant of CommScope’s S1000 platform that uses LTE relay for backhaul connection to
Sprint’s core network.
The S1000R combines S1000 hardware with Sercomm’s Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) module. The
CPE module provides access to user equipment through the backhaul.
The S1000’s WAN Ethernet port connects to the CPE module’s LAN Ethernet port internally, providing data
communication, management and packet forwarding.
Using this guide
This user guide introduces you to the services and features of the S1000R. The guide is divided into the
following chapters:

Safety information
It is important that you read each section and note any special requirements before you use the device.
Please read the Safety information to learn about how to safely use your device.
Failure to read and follow the safety information in this user guide may result in
serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.
Using this guide
Getting Started
This chapter describes the contents of the box and setting up your S1000R.
●
What's in the box
●
Setup at a glance
●
Setting up your S1000R
●
Begin Self-Installation
NOTE: When you complete this section, configure WiFi and other services in Configuring the S1000R
Router.
What's in the box
Ensure that the following items are in the box, along with the Quick Start Guide.
Getting Started
Setup at a glance
The following diagram shows a typical S1000R setup.
Place the unit on its side on a flat surface to expose the bottom of the unit.
Getting Started
Setting up your S1000R
Follow these steps to install your S1000R inside your office or other location.
Place the unit
The following diagram shows a typical placement of an S1000R in a building.
Place the device:
●
In an elevated location, such as the top of a bookshelf or on a window sill.
●
Position the 5 LEDs away from the window to maximize accessibility to Macro signals
●
Within reach of an electrical outlet
NOTE: Do not put the device next to any devices that may cause radio interference.
Getting Started
Connect the external GPS antenna
1. Connect the external GPS cable to the GPS port on the bottom of the unit.
2. Position the GPS antenna module on a flat surface near a closed window.
NOTE: You may defer step 2 until after the unit has been placed upright in the next section.
Do not place the GPS antenna:
●
Outdoors; it is not weatherproof.
●
Behind large, heavy objects such as furniture; doing so could affect the signal.
NOTE: After initial installation, GPS may take 30-40 minutes to get a GPS time fix.
Getting Started
Connect the power supply
1. Plug the power supply connector into the black power port.
Stand the unit upright and carefully move all cables so they come out of one long end of the unit.
There is room for cables to come out from beneath the unit once it is placed upright.
1. Plug the other end of the power cable into an available electrical outlet. (We recommend a surge
protected outlet.)
Getting Started
Begin Self-Installation
When you power on your S1000R for the first time, it will go through an automated setup sequence.
1. During boot-up the device LEDs will be solid green for a few seconds during initial hardware tests.
This takes approximately 8 to 10 seconds.
2. The WAN LED will turn solid green; all other LEDs will be OFF. This takes approximately 8 to 10
seconds.
3. The WAN LED will stay solid green; all other LEDs will blink red.
NOTE: Steps 1 through 3 are expected behavior.
4. The NET LED will turn solid green. This will take approximately 15 minutes.
NOTE: If the WAN or NET LEDs are solid red after 15 minutes, talk to your IT administrator to diagnose
problems with your internet connection.
5. This is a good time to take a break.
The device will go continue the self-installation process. During this time the device may download
software images and perform automatic synchronization. The device may also restart a couple of
times.
Return after 60 minutes and check the LEDs. All LEDs should be solid green.

Maintenance
With normal use, S1000R is maintenance-free. Follow the recommendations below to ensure that it runs
optimally.
Ventilation
The S1000R has ventilation slots that work best if you don’t block the flow of air to them. For desk
mounted devices, keep the device at least 2 inches (5 cm) from walls and other surfaces to ensure proper
air flow.
Cleaning
Dust the S1000R occasionally to keep air vents clear of debris. Do not use liquid cleaners.

Getting help
Router connection problems
If you cannot connect to the S1000R router, there may be a problem with the router, use the following
procedures to diagnose the problem.
Test for connectivity
If the router is properly installed, the LAN connection is OK, and it is powered ON, test the connection by
using the Ping command:
●
Open the command prompt window and enter the command:
ping 192.168.16.1
●
If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or your PC's IP address is not
compatible with the router's IP Address.
Verify IP addresses
If the PC is using a fixed IP address, its IP address must be within the range 192.168.16.2 to
192.168.16.254 to be compatible with the S1000 router’s default IP address of 192.168.16.1. Also, the
Network Mask must be set to 255.255.255.0.
●
Refer to the CommScope S1000 Web GUI User Guide (913110) for details on checking the PC's
TCP/IP settings.
●
Ensure that your PC and the S1000R router are on the same network segment.
●
Ensure you are using the wired LAN interface.

Resetting the S1000R
The S1000R has a RESET button on the bottom of the unit, as shown in the following diagram.
If your S1000R operates properly for an extended period and the WAN LED suddenly starts blinking red,
the S1000R may have a problem requiring a reset. To reset, push the RESET button for at least 10
seconds.
After resetting, your S1000R goes through an automated setup sequence. Refer to Begin Self-Installation
for the setup sequence.
If the failure persists after resetting the S1000R, contact Customer Care. Refer to Getting help.
Troubleshooting
24
FAQs
Why does the S1000R need an external GPS antenna?
The S1000R uses an external GPS antenna so that it can:

Synchronize properly with the rest of the Operator's network.

Determine and select the correct radio frequencies available in your area so that the S1000R
uses the correct ones.
What should I do if the GPS fails to acquire a lock?
If the GPS LED does not turn solid green after 2 hours, call Customer Care as described in
section Getting help.
What happens to the S1000R if there is a power outage or if
you lose Internet access?
During a power outage your device will not be operational. When power is restored and your
internet connection comes up, your device will resume data services. If your device does not
resume services, contact Customer Care as described in Getting help.
Can you move the S1000R to another location?
Yes, you can move your device to another location within the Sprint network. Contact Customer
Care for assistance. See Getting help.

Safety information
This chapter contains safety information for your S1000R.
General precautions
●
Dust the S1000R occasionally to keep air vents clear of debris. Do not wash it.
●
The S1000R has ventilation slots that work best if you don’t block them. Keep the S1000R at
least 2 inches (5 cm) from walls and other surfaces to ensure proper air flow.
●
Do not operate the S1000R in an extremely dusty or humid environment.
●
Avoid placing the S1000R near radiators or other heating sources.
●
Avoid locating the S1000R where it could be exposed to direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
●
Do not connect the S1000R to a power strip containing an excessive number of other devices.
●
Although your S1000R is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken.
Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.
●
Do not immerse the S1000R in water or get it wet. If your device does get wet, unplug it
immediately until it dries.
●
Do not allow children to play with the S1000R. They could hurt themselves and others or damage
the device.
For the best care of your S1000R, only Sprint-authorized personnel should
service your device and accessories. Failure to do so may be dangerous and
voids your warranty.
