Firetide™ HotPoint™ 1000S
The Firetide HotPoint 1000S Wireless Mesh Router enables you to build
Wireless Instant NetworksTM, eliminating the need to lay hundreds or
potentially thousands of feet of Ethernet cable. Now you can instantly
add Ethernet ports wherever you want, especially in areas where
cabling is too costly or time consuming to install.
Multiple HotPoint units automatically fi nd each other via wireless links
allowing you to create and extend a high performance wireless mesh
network. The network is very adaptable, allowing you to change the
network confi guration in real-time.
The HotPoint 1000S acts as a portable Ethernet switch that you can
place anywhere you want simply by plugging the unit into a standard
power outlet. Each HotPoint Wireless Mesh router has three RJ-45
Ethernet ports, allowing you to attach up to three Ethernet devices,
such as a wireless access point, computer, printer server, Internet
uplink, or network video camera.
Firetide Wireless Instant Network
Firetide developed the Wireless Instant Network, based on the
HotPoint Wireless Mesh Router, to enable faster, easier, and more af-
fordable network deployment. Firetide’s patented mesh networking
technology makes it possible to survey, plan and deploy an entire net-
work in less than one day rather than weeks.
The Firetide network is also completely portable. Your entire network
can be relocated simply by taking your HotPoint routers with you to
your new location.
5
What is a Firetide Mesh Network?
Firetide mesh networks feature a self-confi guring, self-healing,
multi-hop topology. Because of these inherent self-organizing
properties, a mesh network requires no manual confi guration.
Thus, creating a new network or adding or relocating network
equipment is as easy as powering up new nodes. The network
automatically discovers the new nodes and integrates them into
the mesh.
A big advantage of a mesh network is its robustness and ability
to heal itself. If a node is disconnected, congested, or fails to
operate, neighboring nodes are notifi ed, and data is routed
around it. There is no need for a network engineer to intervene,
troubleshoot, and cure the problem.
Mesh networking can be compared to the Internet, where data
can be rerouted on other paths if one path becomes disabled or
congested. Losing a node or two or a link won’t bring down the
entire mesh network. Unlike other WLAN technologies, a mesh
network’s reliability and scalability can actually improve by add-
ing more nodes and enriching the density of the mesh. More
redundant paths means the network in aggregate can handle far
more data traffi c, and is therefore quite scalable.
Mesh networks are ideal whenever the network must be reliable,
scalable, and fl exible. They are very portable and can adapt well
to many different physical environments.
6
Building a Firetide Mesh Network
Installing, expanding, or even relocating a Firetide Mesh network is
simple and fast. Simply place a HotPoint router wherever you need
an indoor Ethernet port and plug it into an indoor AC power source.
As long as the HotPoint router is within operating range of other
HotPoint routers, you can connect and operate your network devices
immediately.
Although network planning is often not required for basic installa-
tions, adhering to a few simple guidelines will help ensure that your
network performs reliably and gives you the full benefi ts and perfor-
mance that mesh networking has to offer.
Important! Use the Correct RJ-45 Ethernet Cable
The type of Ethernet cable to use depends on what you connect to the
HotPoint router. End devices such as PCs, printers and video cameras
require crossover cables. Multi-user devices such as hubs and switches
as well as most cable and DSL modems require straight-through (non-
crossover) cables. Devices with auto-sensing MDI/MDIX ports can use
either crossover or straight-through cables. Both cable types are read-
ily available from your Firetide dealer or local computer store.
A simple way to determine
if you have the correct cable
type is to check the left LED
on the HotPoint Ethernet
port. If the green LED illumi-
nates, the cable is correct.
Understand HotPoint Antenna Patterns
HotPoint routers have omni directional antennas that radiate in a broad
circular pattern perpendicular to the antenna shaft. The antennas have
pivoting mounts with a very wide range of motion. This allows you to in-
stall the HotPoint routers at any angle (even upside-down) and still orient
the radiating pattern for maximum distance and throughput.
For optimum horizontal coverage, orient
the antennas in your mesh network verti-
cally (perpendicular to the ground). For
vertical coverage, such as between fl oors
in a building, you may need to orient some
antennas horizontally.
Line-of-Sight Improves Operating Distance
You can increase the working distance between HotPoint routers by
avoiding excessive radio interference and obstacles made of dense
materials such as concrete walls, metal furniture and ceilings. However
this is not always necessary,
especially if you have
a suffi cient number of
HotPoint routers. We
recommend fi rst placing your
HotPoint routers wherever
it is most convenient and
relocating them only if these
obstacles seems to impair
performance.
7
Create a Mesh Topology for Maximum Performance and Reliability
Unlike simple point-to-point bridging, Firetide provides true mesh
networking with fl exible and redundant paths. This improves overall
performance, allows the network to be extended over long distances,
and reduces the chance of single point failures.
To fully benefi t from the self-forming and self-healing properties of
the mesh, place each HotPoint router within direct range of two or
more HotPoint routers. Also, do not install your HotPoint network in
a linear, point-to-point confi guration. The Firetide network protocol
is optimized for two- and three-dimensional topologies including
vertical connections between multiple fl oors in a building.
Use the Free HotPoint Manager Software
Although this software is not required for installing or operating
your network, the HotPoint Manager software provides an easy way
to monitor and manage the mesh and your HotPoint routers. Because
wireless connections between HotPoint routers are invisible, this
software lets you “see” which units are within direct range of each
other. HotPoint Manager also provides additional security and optional
confi guration features. You can download the software free of charge
from the Firetide web site. See pages 8 though 11 for information on
downloading and installing HotPoint Manager.
8
HotPoint ManagerTM Software

interface for monitoring all of the HotPoint routers on your mesh network.
HotPoint Manager is a Java-based application compatible with most Internet
browsers and platforms including Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, and Linux.
