Regulatory Approvals FCC Statement 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 communica-tions. 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. To assure continued compliance, any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. (Example - use only shielded interface cables when connecting to computer or peripheral devices). FCC Radiation Exposure Statement This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body. 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. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. The antennas used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Channel The Wireless Channel sets the radio frequency used for communication. •Access Points use a fixed Channel. You can select the Channel used. This allows you to choose a Channel which provides the least interference and best performance. In the USA and Canada, 11 channel are available. If using multiple Access Points, it is better if adjacent Access Points use different Channels to reduce interference. • In "Infrastructure" mode, Wireless Stations normally scan all Channels, looking for an Access Point. If more than one Access Point can be used, the one with the strongest signal is used. (This can only happen within an ESS.) • If using "Ad-hoc" mode (no Access Point), all Wireless stations should be set to use the same Channel. However, most Wireless stations will still scan all Channels to see if there is an existing "Ad-hoc" group they can join.CAUTION:1) To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, a separationdistance of at least 20 cm must be maintained between the antenna of thisdevice and all persons.2) This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction withany other antenna or transmitter.3) The device belong to outdoor unit, so it is disabled from 5.15 to 5.25GHz.

8 Firetide HotPort 3203 Outdoor Wireless Mesh Node HotPort™ 3200 series outdoor mesh nodes have weatherproof enclosures and connect wirelessly to indoor and outdoor HotPort nodes to form a high-performance wireless mesh network. Outdoor nodes feature a built-in dual-port 10/100 Ethernet switch, a dual-spectrum radio, and omni-directional antennas. They can operate at 2.4 GHz for maximum capacity and range, or at 5 GHz for maximum capacity and minimal interference from 2.4 GHz devices. Both Ethernet ports are weatherproof and support 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE). A removable sunshield and a mounting bracket are provided with each unit. Options include integrated backup battery and solar powered charger. The HotPort 3203 provides Ethernet connectivity for outdoor devices without the need for a wired backhaul. This enables fast deployment of outdoor networking equipment, such as weatherized access points and surveillance cameras, virtually anywhere, without costly cabling. Firetide™ mesh networks provide a reliable, flexible, and scalable alternative to cabling and leased lines. Because they form automatically without wires and do not require line-of-sight, Firetide mesh networks can be installed without modifications to buildings or landscaping. Outdoor network installation costs are dramatically lower because time-consuming trenching and cable pulling between buildings is not required. Provisioning is also easy and fast because no special drivers, setup, and interfaces are required for the equipment you connect to a Firetide instant mesh network. While operating at 5 GHz, the HotPort 3203’s radio can cover distances up to 2600 ft (800 m). This long reach between HotPort mesh nodes enables you to extend your network to areas that are otherwise too distant, expensive, difficult, or environmentally sensitive to wire with LAN cable. The two weatherproof 10/100 Ethernet connectors provide for connecting Ethernet devices, such as access points, surveillance cameras, and sensors. The package includes an indoor-rated power supply, with a country- or region-specific power cord and a 10 m (33 ft) power transition cable, which can supply power from an AC power source. The HotPort 3203 mesh node can supply Power over Ethernet to auxiliary Ethernet devices up to a maximum of 48 VDC. Two omni-directional antennas attach to the bottom of the HotPort 3203 enclosure via a connector and cable. Because all mesh nodes are interconnected, a single gateway can provide Internet access to the entire mesh network. HotPort 3203 outdoor mesh nodes are fully compatible with HotPort 3103 nodes, enabling the mesh to extend to indoor applications. Firetide HotPort 3203 Node

HotPort 3203 Outdoor Wireless Mesh Node 9 Example Networks/Applications Below are some examples of how you can use HotPort wireless mesh networks in your workplace. • Provide Ethernet service over a wireless backhaul to buildings where wired solutions via Category 5 cabling or fiber is impractical or too expensive. • Connect access points to networks from locations where it is impractical to run cable to the access points. • Connect security cameras to monitor remote locations. Planning Your Network Before implementing a wireless mesh network, perform the following preliminary steps: • To ensure a safe installation of the HotPort 3203, follow the appropriate electrical and building codes (like the National Electrical Code (NEC)), country codes, or local building codes. • When identifying a location for mounting the antenna, keep in mind that you should not mount the antenna within 3 ft (0.9 m) of another antenna. If you do, interference may occur. • You can increase the working distance of your wireless mesh by avoiding obstacles between nodes. For best performance, ensure that there is a clear line of sight between each HotPort node. • Look for physical obstructions, such as building or trees, and avoid installing the antenna where there is obstruction between antennas. Installations in winter months around trees may not pose a problem, but once the leaves appear they may pose an obstruction. • Keep in mind that buildings may cause radio signal obstruction, depending on the material used in construction. • Avoid areas with heavy vehicle and foot traffic. Do not install near rain gutters and downspouts or areas subject to flooding. • Consider ways to protect your HotPort node from theft and vandalism. Try to place HotPort nodes in areas where access by unauthorized individuals is restricted (such as on a rooftop, a tall pole, and so on). (After you mount the HotPort, you can secure it by placing a lock on the mounting bracket.) • Survey the site for grounding options. It is crucial to have earth ground. • Make sure that the horizontal distance from a tower, pole, or antenna to the nearest power line is at least twice the total length of the pole/antenna combination. This will prevent the tower, pole, or antenna from contacting power if it falls either during or after installation. • Make sure that you can install the HotPort node close enough to an AC power outlet so you can connect the HotPort node’s AC power supply to the outlet. If you plan to power a HotPort node via an Ethernet connection (using the Power over Ethernet option), make sure you have an Ethernet cable long enough to connect the HotPort node to the Power Sourcing Equipment (see the “Connecting the Power” section for information). • Make sure the location where you install the HotPort node is accessible to the devices you intend to connect to the HotPort node (access points, cameras, and so on). • If you plan to provide a battery backup or use solar power, make sure you have a reliable battery to use for power storage. If using solar power, and the solar unit does not include a battery, obtain the proper battery for power storage.

Hardware Installation Guide 10 Power Options There are various options for supplying power to the HotPort 3203. Power Supply The power supply can provide power to the HotPort 3203 enclosure from an AC outlet. The power supply is rated for 90-240 VAC. Optionally, when the HotPort 3203 receives power from the power supply, you can provide power to two peripheral devices connected to the HotPort 3203’s Ethernet ports. Power over Ethernet (PoE) The HotPort 3203 outdoor mesh node has two weatherproof Ethernet ports to provide Ethernet connectivity to outdoor peripheral Ethernet devices, such as access points or surveillance cameras. Use of these ports is optional. Both ports 1 and 2 on a HotPort 3203 can provide Power over Ethernet (PoE) functionality to Powered Devices (PD) connected to these ports. A Powered Device can receive data and the power to process the data from the HotPort 3203, which functions as Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) in this configuration. To receive power from a HotPort 3203, the device must support the IEEE 802.3af standard, which defines PoE functionality. Alternatively, you can connect Power Sourcing Equipment to Ethernet port 1 on a HotPort 3203 to allow the HotPort to receive power from a PSE device.

HotPort 3203 Outdoor Wireless Mesh Node 11 HotPort 3203 Installation This hardware installation guide describes how to install the HotPort 3203 safely.

HotPort 3203 Outdoor Wireless Mesh Node 13 Building a Firetide Mesh Network Although network planning is often not required for basic installations, adhering to a few simple guidelines will help ensure that your network performs reliably and gives you the full benefits and performance that mesh networking has to offer. Planning Your Network Before implementing a wireless mesh network, perform the following preliminary steps: • Survey your site and make a simple sketch of where you’ll place the HotPort nodes. • Make sure that you can install all HotPort nodes close enough to AC power outlets so you can connect the HotPort nodes’ AC power supplies to the outlets. (If you plan to use the Power over Ethernet option to power the HotPort, make sure that you can install the HotPort close enough to the Power Sourcing Equipment.) • As described in detail below, you can increase the working distance of your outdoor, wireless mesh by avoiding obstacles between nodes. For best performance, ensure that there is a clear line of sight between each HotPort node. See the sections below for more site-planning information. Understanding HotPort Antenna Patterns HotPort 3203 outdoor mesh nodes have omni-directional antennas that radiate in a broad circular pattern perpendicular to the antenna shaft. For optimum coverage, orient the antennas in your mesh network vertically (perpendicular to the ground). Since the coverage of the RF spectrum is different in the various spectrum bands, orientation of the antennas will enhance your coverage area. The two included dual-spectrum antennas support the following frequency bands: 5.250-5.350 GHz; 5.725-5.825 GHz; 2.420-2.497 GHz (OFDM and DSSS modes). Line-of-Sight Improves Operating Distance Although HotPort wireless mesh nodes can communicate between walls and buildings, you can increase the working distance of your nodes by avoiding obstacles made of dense materials, such as concrete, metal, or wood. Positioning the HotPort units so the space between them provides an unobstructed, line-of-sight view, will greatly increase the effective range and reliability of transmission. They should be located high enough above obstacles to prevent interference. Creating a Mesh Topology for Maximum Performance and Reliability Unlike simple point-to-point bridging, Firetide provides true mesh networking with flexible 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 benefit from the self-forming and self-healing properties of the mesh, place each HotPort node within direct range of two or more HotPort nodes. It is not recommended to install your HotPort network in a linear, point-to-point configuration. The Firetide network protocol is optimized for two and three dimensional topologies.

Hardware Installation Guide 14 Linear vs. Mesh Topology Staging Considerations If the antenna, access points, Ethernet devices, and HotPort 3203 are staged properly, the installation should go smoothly. This section describes some staging scenarios that will ease overall installation of the HotPort 3203. Firetide recommends you perform the following steps to install your HotPort 3203: 1. Set up your HotPort 3203 in a lab with two other HotPorts (HotPort 3203 or HotPort 3103 nodes) using the two provided dual-spectrum antennas. 2. In the lab, make all the necessary cable connections and power the HotPorts. 3. Install the HotView software on a workstation and connect the workstation to a HotPort 3203 (see the HotView User Guide for information about installing and using HotView). 4. Use HotView to configure the HotPort nodes and create a small mesh network. Configure and test the network settings you plan to use. 5. Once you’ve decided which RF frequency band to use (2.4 or 5 GHz), order a high-gain antenna for the desired spectrum from Firetide for the HotPort 3203. 6. Pre-assemble the antenna, HotPort 3203, and other devices to a metal pole and antenna stand and then relocate and attach the entire stand to a roof top. It is often easier to install all devices to one object, such as a pole, and then attach the pole to the roof. In many cases, connecting the devices to a pole already attached to the roof top can be difficult and dangerous. 7. Install the antenna first and then install the HotPort 3203 enclosure, this will ensure that the antenna is mounted at an adequate height. 8. Install the antenna and wireless devices higher than the HotPort 3203. Having the HotPort 3203 at a location lower than the antenna will provide easy access to the HotPort 3203. Take care when locating the HotPort 3203 far away from the antenna; do not mount the HotPort 3203 further than 60 ft (18.3 m) from the antenna. 9. If connecting to a pole, connect the HotPort 3203 mounting bracket to earth ground. 10. Utilize weatherproofing kits that include non-vulcanized rubber to weatherproof connectors and antennas. 11. Power over Ethernet consideration: Consider which devices require PoE and what the required input voltage will be. 12. Connect peripheral devices to the HotPort 3203.

HotPort 3203 Outdoor Wireless Mesh Node 15 13. Connect power to the HotPort 3203 and peripherals. 14. Connect a workstation running HotView to the HotPort 3203, configure the desired radio channel and RF spectrum settings, and connect to the mesh. These steps are described in detail in this manual. Preparing the Site for Mounting Prior to mounting the antenna and enclosure, prepare the site for mounting as described below. Safety Considerations Prior to mounting, consider the following safety issues. • If using a ladder, use approved, non-conducting ladders. • Also, use approved and non-conducting shoes and other safety equipment. Make sure that all equipment is in good repair. • If mounting to a pole or tower, make sure all poles and towers are securely grounded. • Make sure electrical cables connected to antennas have lightning arrestors. Weatherproofing The two Ethernet ports on the bottom of the HotPort 3203 feature circular, watertight IP67-rated connectors. Use the included weatherized Ethernet transition cable/RJ-45 connector kit to connect Ethernet devices with male RJ-45 connectors to the HotPort 3203. Preparing Earth Ground The HotPort 3203 must be properly connected to earth ground. Failure to do so may result in equipment damage, injury, or death. The product warranty does not cover damages resulting in part or in whole from improper grounding. The components that will attract lightning strikes are the antenna, the antenna pole, and the Ethernet and power cables. Below are some guidelines for installing grounding components. • If mounting to a tower or pole, make sure the tower or pole is securely grounded and that all electrical cables connected to antennas have lightning arrestors. • If connecting to a tower or pole, connect the base of the tower or pole directly to the building’s ground or to one or more approved grounding rods using 10 AWG ground wire and corrosion-resistant connectors. • Connect the grounding cable to rain gutters only if the rain gutter or other conductive material is connected to earth ground. • Grounding rods should be copper and between 6 - 8 ft (1.8 m – 2.4 m) long. • Install all grounding components in straight lines. If bends are unavoidable, do not make sharp turns. • Earth-to-ground resistance should not be more than 10 ohms.

Hardware Installation Guide 16 • Understanding the soil is very important in order to create a proper earth ground. If your soil is rocky or sandy, drive your ground rods and then pull them back out and dump an approved ground enhancement material into the holes where the grounding rods go. Then replace the grounding rods. Keep in mind that some salt compounds are corrosive and can cause copper to corrode. • Having proper earth ground is critical. For more information on earth ground, refer to the National Electric Code (NEC) or your country’s electrical code for grounding details.

HotPort 3203 Outdoor Wireless Mesh Node 17 Mounting the Antenna Once you determine which RF frequency band to use, you can order a single high-gain, single-spectrum antenna. This antenna consists of an antenna shaft with an attached lightning protector and coaxial cable (either a 1.5 m (5 ft) or 5 m (16.4 ft) cable). Below are important points about mounting the antenna. Mounting Guidelines • For best results, the mounting location should enable maximum performance of the antenna. • The antenna can be mounted directly to the HotPort 3203 or directly to a pole. • The pole composition can be either metal or wood. Note: FCC regulations require Firetide to provide the antennas, lightning protectors, and cables connected together. Disconnecting these items from each other is not supported by Firetide and will void the warranty. • If a longer coax cable is required, the connector requires a 50 ohm RP-TNC (Reverse-Polarity TNC) cable. Note: If you use a cable longer than 5 m, there will likely be a signal loss or attenuation penalty. Note: Do not mount the HotPort antenna within 3 ft (0.9 m) of other antennas. If you do, interference may occur. • When mounting next to an access point, mount the access point lower on the pole and at least 3 ft (0.9 m) from the antenna. You can also mount the access point on a horizontal bar to achieve the required 3 foot separation. • OEM Integrators, end users, and installers must be provided with antenna installation instructions and transmitter operating conditions in order to satisfy RF-exposure compliance.

Hardware Installation Guide 18 For best results, position the HotPort 3203 antenna above obstructions. Wall Mounting 1. Position the antenna above or to the side of the HotPort 3203 enclosure to permit easy attachment of the antenna to the connector at the bottom of the enclosure. 2. RF signals can be attenuated by a wall or the composition of a building. When utilizing omni-directional antennas, connecting the antennas to a wall may limit the amount of coverage. 3. Connect the end of the cable from the antenna to the antenna 1 connector at the bottom of the HotPort 3203 enclosure. Place the provided waterproof cap on the antenna 2 connector to cover it. Pole Mounting 1. Position the antenna on the pole above the HotPort 3203 enclosure. 2. Clamp the antenna securely to the pole using two U bolts per antenna. 3.

Hardware Installation Guide 28 Connecting Power over Ethernet You can provide power to a HotPort 3203 by connecting Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) to Ethernet port 1 on the HotPort 3203. In this configuration, the HotPort 3203 can receive its power (as well as data) from the PSE. When receiving power from a PSE device, the HotPort 3203 functions as a Powered Device (PD). Below are some notes regarding this type of connection. • The Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) must comply with the IEEE 802.3.af specification for Power over Ethernet. • It is recommended that you use a shielded Category 5 Ethernet cable no longer than 2 m (6.5 ft) to connect Power Sourcing Equipment to a HotPort. • If you apply Power over Ethernet to the HotPort, you cannot provide power to a peripheral connected to Ethernet port 2. However, you can connect a peripheral to Ethernet port 2 to allow the peripheral to exchange data with the HotPort 3203. Note: If you provide Power over Ethernet to the HotPort 3203, do not connect power from an AC power source to the HotPort. Each HotPort comes with a weatherized Ethernet transition cable/ RJ-45 male connector kit. The circular, 10-pin connector on the Ethernet transition cable connects to Ethernet port 1 on the HotPort. You need to construct a shielded Category 5 Ethernet cable compatible with outdoor applications to connect the PSE to the Ethernet transition cable/ RJ-45 male connector kit. To connect power to the unit from PSE: 1. Construct a shielded Category 5 Ethernet cable: Insert one end of the Ethernet cable (without an RJ-45 connector) through the provided Bulgin connector housing. Then use an RJ-45 crimping tool to attach an RJ-45 connector to this end of the Ethernet cable (strip off a section of the outer jacket near the end of the cable, separate the wire pairs, align the wires in the correct order (straight-through or cross-over), and so on). Attach a connector compatible with the PSE to the other end of the Ethernet cable (this is typically another RJ-45 connector). 2. Run the Ethernet cable you constructed from the PSE to the HotPort 3203 enclosure. 3. Insert the male RJ-45 connector on the constructed Ethernet cable (on the Bulgin connector housing end) into the female RJ-45 connector on the Ethernet transition cable/ RJ-45 male connector kit. 4. Twist the Bulgin connector housing to ensure a watertight seal. 5. Remove the protective cap from Ethernet port 1 on the HotPort 3203 enclosure and insert the circular, 10-pin connector on the Ethernet transition cable into Ethernet port 1 on the HotPort 3203. Tighten the connector to ensure a watertight seal. 6. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the PSE and power the HotPort and PSE. The indicators (LEDs) on the enclosure should light as follows: after system startup, the Status light and the green Power light should light. Connecting Solar Power The HotPort 3203 can be powered by using a solar panel with a battery backup. These products are available through your Firetide dealer. To use solar power, set up the solar panel, connect the solar panel to a power storage battery, and then connect the battery to the HotPort 3203.

HotPort 3203 Outdoor Wireless Mesh Node 29 Connecting Peripherals You can connect up to two peripheral devices, such as access points or surveillance cameras, to the Ethernet connectors on the bottom of the HotPort 3203. Each HotPort node provides two auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connectors. Optionally, these peripheral devices can also receive power from the HotPort. Each HotPort comes with a weatherized Ethernet transition cable/ RJ-45 male connector kit. The circular, 10-pin connector on the Ethernet transition cable connects to one of the circular Ethernet ports on the HotPort. You need to construct a shielded Category 5 Ethernet cable compatible with outdoor applications to connect the peripheral to the Ethernet transition cable/ RJ-45 male connector kit. To connect a peripheral device: 1. Construct a shielded Category 5 Ethernet cable: Insert one end of the Ethernet cable (without an RJ-45 connector) through the provided Bulgin connector housing. Then use an RJ-45 crimping tool to attach an RJ-45 connector to this end of the Ethernet cable (strip off a section of the outer jacket near the end of the cable, separate the wire pairs, align the wires in the correct order (straight-through or cross-over), and so on). Attach a connector compatible with the peripheral to the other end of the Ethernet cable (this is typically another RJ-45 connector). 2. Run the Ethernet cable you constructed from the peripheral to the HotPort 3203 enclosure. 3. Insert the male RJ-45 connector on the constructed Ethernet cable (on the Bulgin connector housing end) into the female RJ-45 connector on the Ethernet transition cable/ RJ-45 male connector kit. 4. Twist the Bulgin connector housing to ensure a watertight seal. 5. Remove the protective cap from one of the Ethernet ports on the HotPort 3203 enclosure and insert the circular, 10-pin connector on the Ethernet transition cable into the Ethernet port on the HotPort 3203. Tighten the connector to ensure a watertight seal. 6. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the peripheral and power the HotPort and the peripheral. The indicators (LEDs) on the enclosure should light as follows: after system startup, the Status light and the green Power light should light. Note: If you also want to provide power to the peripheral device(s), see the section below. Note: Each HotPort 3203 package includes one Ethernet transition cable/RJ-45 connector kit. To connect another peripheral to the HotPort, order another transition cable/RJ-45 connector kit from your Firetide dealer. Providing Power over Ethernet to Peripherals Optionally, peripheral devices attached to a HotPort 3203 can receive DC power, as well as data, from the HotPort. You can use either port on the HotPort 3203 to connect peripherals. Follow the instructions in the above section to connect peripheral devices that will receive their power from the HotPort. Note: To provide power to peripheral devices attached to the HotPort, you must connect AC power to the HotPort (see the “Connecting AC Power” section for details).

Hardware Installation Guide 30 When connecting devices that will receive their power from the HotPort 3203, keep the points listed below in mind. • When providing power to other devices, the HotPort 3203 functions as Endpoint Power Sourcing Equipment. Do not daisy chain PoE devices; connect only one device per Ethernet port on the HotPort. • Use shielded Category 5 Ethernet cables compatible with outdoor applications to connect peripherals. • The devices receiving power from the HotPort 3203 are Powered Devices and must comply with the 802.3af specification for Power over Ethernet. • The default voltage for power out put over each Ethernet port is 48 VDC. • Consider the distances and the lower voltages of attached devices when receiving Power over Ethernet. When providing Power over Ethernet to attached peripherals, the HotPort can provide a cumulative 27 watts of power, from 48 VDC to 12 VDC. Lower voltage access points and other devices may not work well with PoE if the devices and the HotPort 3203 are too far apart. If the devices are too far apart, you will encounter noise and drooping on the voltage signal. It is recommended that you use an Ethernet cable no longer than 2 m (6.5 ft) to connect a peripheral device that will receive its power from the HotPort. It is also recommended to use higher voltage access points and devices when using PoE. Note: Save the weatherproof caps on the enclosure in the event that you need to utilize them in the future.
