Gen6 CPE – model 2X
Version 3 Users and Installation Manual
This guide covers the assembly and configuration of the 2xWireless CPE equipment.
Introduction
The 2xWireless customer premise equipment (CPE) wireless device is a high performing, all outdoor
device designed to provide high capacity data transfer, low latency and low jitter. The 2xWireless CPE
provides a full duplex wireless connection utilizing a patent pending Frequency Division Duplex – Time
Division Duplexing FDD-TDD 802.11 protocol capable of connection distances up to 25 miles. The
protocols used in the CPE deliver latency of less than 1ms, over 1 million packets per second, and up to
40 Mbps of data. Designed with performance in mind, 2xWireless CPE’s provide end users with
increased throughput, better reliability, and a higher quality solution than many of the other wireless
solutions on the market today. 2xWireless’ CPE’s are an easily deployed, affordable last mile solution for
service providers.

CPE Assembly Instructions
Assembly of the mounting bracket
1. Insert both V-bolts through the inside of mounting bracket 1. The completed step should look
like this.
2. Insert (4) of the 1” carriage bolts through the flat side of mounting bracket 2 as shown. Seat the
base of the carriage bolt into the square hole in the bracket. Place the 2 halves of the bracket
together, the larger end of bracket A should be facing downwards. Bolt plastic brackets together
using (4) flat washers, (4) lock washers, and (4) ¼”-20 hex nuts. Finger tighten only. These bolts
will be tightened during installation and adjustment. Set the assembly aside.

Assembly of the radio unit and reflector
3. Insert the feed horn of the radio unit through the hole of the reflector plate as shown.
Orientation is not important at this time.
4. Attach the reflector to the radio unit with (4) 10-24 Phillips machine screws. Tighten the screws

Final assembly
5. Bolt the reflector and radio assembly to the mounting bracket assembly with the remaining four
1” long ¼”-20 carriage bolts and the four Serrated flange nuts. Tighten the nuts ¼ turn past
snug. Note: The cable entry port must be facing down to prevent water from entering the
device. Improper installation will cause water damage and void the warranty.
Installation and adjustment
6. Place assembly with bracket against pole and slide the two steel tooth brackets onto the V bolts
as shown. For proper installation, the larger end of bracket A should be on the bottom and the
cable entry point should be pointing down. The brackets are held in place with (4) flat washers,
(4) split lock washers and (4) ¼”-20 hex nuts. Finger tighten at this time to allow azimuth
adjustment of the CPE on the mounting pole during alignment.

7. Insert the cable through rubber grommet and terminate the cable end. The cabling for
installation is standard EIA/TIA 586B. For reference, the wiring diagram is included below the
programming information.
8. Insert the cable end into the CPE. The tab on the end should click when properly seated in the
radio unit. Confirm the end is securely seated in the radio unit. Slide the rubber grommet into
the cable entry point. It will fit snugly and recess into the case approximately ½ the thickness of
the grommet.
9. Complete the wire run to the entry point of the building and install the surge suppressor per the
instructions supplied with the surge device.
10. Connect the power cord with the power supply and insert it into a surge protected outlet or
uninterruptible power supply (UPS). Connect the cable leading from the surge device to the
power supply port marked ‘POE’. Connect the port labeled ‘LAN’ to a computer for
programming with a standard patch cable. CAUTION: connecting any device other than the CPE
to the POE port may cause damage.
11. When correctly installed and powered up the CPE will issue DHCP addresses in the
192.168.100.x subnet.
CPE Login Instructions
1. Access the web interface via the default address: https://192.168.100.1:8000
2. At the log in prompt, enter the default username: admin and password: 2xw as shown below.
3. Choose the desired mode for the CPE to operate in. ‘Bridge’ mode will pass the network without
any routing required.
4. click the choose button.
5. You will then be able to set your network information, which his self-explanatory, including site-
surveys.
