Introduction
Its high-powered, long-range characteristics make it a costeffective alternative to ordinary access points that don’t
have the range and reach to connect to a growing number
of wireless users who wish to connect to a large home or
business network.
The EAP900H is a high-powered, long-range dual-band
concurrent wireless 802.11a/b/g/n access point with
four major functional modes. The EAP900H is designed
to operate in numerous environments from large homes,
small and medium-sized businesses, multiple-floor offices,
hotels and other venues to larger enterprise deployments.
Maximum data rates are based on IEEE 802.11 standards. Actual throughput and range may vary depending on many factors including environmental conditions, distance between
devices, radio interference in the operating environment, and mix of devices in the network. Features and specifications subject to change without notice. Trademarks and registered
trademarks are the property of their respective owners. For United States of America: Copyright © 2013 EnGenius Technologies, Inc. All rights reserved.
The EAP900H supports the 2.4GHz frequency band under
802.11 b/g/n mode while at the same time providing
5GHz band for communicating or transferring files in a less
congested network frequency band.
System Requirements
The EAP900H delivers up to 6x faster wireless speeds and
7x extended coverage than legacy 802.11a/b/g wireless
devices. Even though the EAP900H has been designed
and engineered for traffic heavy and demanding business
environments it is also quite at home in larger house
scenarios because it efficiently extends the wireless range
of an existing home router, especially in very architecturallychallenging structures to provide whole home connectivity.
• Windows OS (XP, Vista, 7), Mac OS, or Linux-based operating systems
The following are the Minimum System Requirements in
order configure the device.
• Computer with an Ethernet interface or wireless network capability
• Web-Browsing Application (i.e.: Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, or
another similar browser application)
Package Contents
The EAP900H package contains the following items (all
items must be in package to issue a refund):
• EAP900H Access Point
• Power Adapter
To protect sensitive data during wireless transmissions, the
EAP900H offers different encryption settings for wireless
transmissions including industry-standard WPA and WPA2
encryption. The EAP900H also includes MAC address
filtering to allow network administrators to offer network
access only to known computers and other devices based
on their MAC addresses.
• RJ-45 Ethernet Cable
• CD with User Manual
• Quick Installation Guide
• Wall Mount Screw kit
Applications
• Training/Educational Facilities: Training sites at corporations or
students at universities use wireless connectivity to ease access
to information, information exchanges, and learning.
Wireless LAN (WLAN) products are easy to install and
highly efficient. The following list describes some of the
many applications made possible through the power and
flexibility of WLANs:
• Difficult-to-Wire Environments: There are many situations where
wires cannot be installed or deployed easily or cannot be hidden
from view. Older buildings, sites with multiple buildings, and/or
areas make the installation of a Ethernet-based LAN impossible,
impractical or expensive.
• Temporary Workgroups: Create temporary workgroups/networks
in more open areas within a building – auditoriums, amphitheater
classrooms, ballrooms, arenas, exhibition centers, temporary
offices where one wants either a permanent or temporary Wireless
LAN established.
• The Ability to Access Real-Time Information: Doctors/Nurses,
Point-of-Sale Employees, and/or Warehouse Workers can access
real-time information while dealing with patients, serving
customers, and/or processing information.
• Frequently Changing Environments: Set up networks in
environments that change frequently (i.e.: Show Rooms,
Exhibits, etc.).
• Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) Networks: SOHO users
need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small
network.
• Wireless Extensions to Existing Ethernet-based Networks:
Devices like the EAP900H enable network administrators,
installers and end-users to extend the range and reach of an
existing Ethernet-based network.

Before you Begin
Considerations for Wireless Installation
This section will guide you through the installation
process. Placement of the EnGenius EAP900H is essential
to maximize the access point’s performance. Avoid placing
the EAP900H in an enclosed space such as a closet,
cabinet, or stairwell.
The operating distance of all wireless devices cannot be
pre-determined due to a number of unknown obstacles
in the environment that the device is deployed in.
These could be the number, thickness, and location of
walls, ceilings, or other objects that the EAP900H’s
wireless signals must pass through. Here are some
key guidelines to allow the EAP900H to have optimal
wireless range.
• Keep the number of walls and/or ceilings between the EAP900H
and other network devices to a minimum. Each wall and/or ceiling
can reduce the signal strength, resulting in lower signal strength.
• Building materials makes a difference. A solid metal door and/or
aluminum stubs may have a significant negative effect on the
signal strength of the EAP900H. Locate your wireless devices
carefully so the signal can pass through a drywall and/or open
doorways. Materials such as glass, steel, metal, concrete, water
(example: fish tanks), mirrors, file cabinets and/or brick can also
diminish wireless signal strength.
• Interference from your other electrical devices and/or appliances
that generate RF noise can also diminish the EAP900H’s signal
strength. The most common types of devices are microwaves or
cordless phones.

The EAP900H has the ability to operate in various modes. This chapter describes the operating modes of the EAP900H.
Access Point Mode
In Access Point Mode, EAP900H behaves likes a central connection for stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n
networks. The stations and clients must be configured to use the same SSID (Service Set Identifier) and security password to
associate with the EAP900H. The EAP900H supports up to eight SSIDs at the same time for secure access.

The EAP900H also supports WDS AP mode. This operating mode allows wireless connections to the EAP900H using WDS
technology. In this mode, configure the MAC addresses in both Access Points to enlarge the wireless area by enabling
WDS Link settings. WDS supports four AP MAC addresses.

WDS Bridge Mode
In WDS Bridge Mode, the EAP900H can wirelessly connect different LANs by configuring the MAC address and security
settings of each EAP900H device. Use this mode when two wired LANs located a small distance apart want to communicate
with each other. The best solution is to use the EAP900H to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as shown in the following
figure.
WDS Bridge Mode can establish four WDS links, creating a star-like network.
Note: WDS Bridge Mode does not act as an Access Point. Access Points linked by WDS are using the same frequency
channel. More Access Points connected together may lower throughput. This configuration can be susceptible to
generate endless network loops in your network, so it is recommended to enable the Spanning Tree function to
prevent this from happening.

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 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.
