Introduction
The ENH1750EXT is a high-powered, long-range 3x3 Dual-
Band Wireless 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n Outdoor Access Point
with speeds up to 450 Mbps on 2.4GHz and 1300Mbps on
5GHzband.Itcanbeconguredasan:AccessPoint,Client
Bridge, or WDS (AP, Station & Bridge). The ENH1750EXT is
designed to operate in a variety of outdoor environments.
Its high-powered, long-range characteristics make it a cost-
Introduction
effective 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 business network.
The ENH1750EXT supports the 2.4GHz frequency band
under802.11b/g/nmodewhileatthesametimeproviding
6
5GHzbandunder802.11ac/a/nmodeforcommunicating
to and from 5GHz capable computers, tablets or smart
phones or transferring les. Several ENH1750EXTs can
be deployed in a campus setting using the 5GHz band as
a backhaul to provide multiple 2.4GHz wireless cells for
computers or mobile devices in common outdoor areas.
The ENH1750EXT is easy to install in virtually any location
with its included PoE (Power over Ethernet) injector for
quick outdoor installation. The ENH1750EXT enables
network administrators to control its transmit power
and feature settings for selecting narrow bandwidth and
trafcshaping. The ENH1750EXTalso supports wireless
encryption including Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA-PSK/
WPA2-PSK)Encryption,andIEEE802.1xwithRADIUS.

WDS Bridge Mode
In WDS Bridge Mode, the ENH1750EXT can wirelessly connect different LANs by conguring the MAC address and
securitysettingsofeachENH1750EXTdevice.UsethismodewhentwowiredLANslocatedasmalldistanceapartwant
to communicate with each other. The best solution is to use the ENH1750EXT to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as
shown in the following diagram.
WDS Bridge Mode can establish up to 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 conguration 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.

models of Access Points is not guaranteed. It is
recommended that the WDS network be created using
the same models for maximum compatibility.
Also note: All Access Points in the WDS network need
to use the same Channel and Security settings.
To create a WDS network, please enter the MAC addresses
of the Access Points that you want included in the WDS.

This device is a 5GHz wideband transmission system (transceiver), intended for use in all EU member states and EFTA countries, except in France
and Italy where restrictive use applies.
In Italy the end-user should apply for a license at the national spectrum authorities in order to obtain authorization to use the device for setting
up outdoor radio links and/or for supplying public access to telecommunications and/or network services.
This device may not be used for setting up outdoor radio links in France and in some areas the RF output power may be limited to 10 mW EIRP
in the frequency range of 2454 – 2483.5 MHz. For detailed information the end-user should contact the national spectrum authority in France.
