RAMP Bridge Installation and Operations Guide Laird’s RAMP Bridge provides a simple, high-performance wireless Ethernet cable replacement system that eliminates the frustration, cost, and complication of its competitors, all contained in a small, durable, form factor. Say goodbye to enormous outdoor antennas that rely on directional precision and complicated alignment. Laird’s RAMP Bridge makes it easier than ever to achieve industrialstrength long-range Ethernet cable replacement in any environment.

RAMP Bridge and all associated equipment should be installed in accordance with applicable local and national electric code guidelines to ensure safe operation. Precaution For best results, make sure the connector is clean and free from any metal flakes/dirt. Tighten the connector using a torque wrench. Also, do not remove the dust cap from connectors when not in used. Placement For best results, orientate RAMP Bridge vertically as shown below. The top portion of the unit contains an omni-directional antenna; for best results, the upper portion should be located in free space with no obstructions in the antennas near-field.

If using the network switch with POE, use a standard CAT 5 or CAT 6 cable to connect the device to the switch. If using an external POE injector, set up according to the manufacturer’s recommended connections. A few seconds after power is first applied to the Ramp Bridge device, the LEDs light up in a pattern from top to bottom. Once finished, the device is ready to be used or configured. Configuration RAMP Bridge units are configured via any standard web browser. Enter the IP address of the RAMP Bridge unit into a browser (default IP is 192.168.3.1) and log in. The default login is root and the default password is summit. We highly recommend that you immediately change the admin credentials. To do this, click Change Admin Credentials in the upper right side of the screen. RAMP Bridge units are configured as either a server or a client. Each network should have only one server and can have between one and five clients. By default, units are configured as a client. To set up a network, first configure the server using the web browser as shown below. For the server, the only configuration options: Network Name – Unique name of the network shared among the server and client. Passphrase – Security key for clients to authenticate communication to server. This is used for over the air communication; it is not the same key as the device login password. The server and client(s) must have the same passphrase. Channel Number – The channel for radio communication. IP Address – The IP address used to connect to the device for configuration. Then configure each client in the network as shown in the image to the right. For the client, the following are the only configuration options: Network Name – Unique name of the network shared among the server and client. Passphrase – Security key for clients to authenticate communication to server. This is used for over the air communication; it is not the same key as the device’s login password. The server and client(s) must have the same passphrase. IP Address – The IP address used to connect to the device for configuration. Once all configurations are saved, the units can be used in a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint bridging operation.

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. IMPORTANT NOTE: Radiation Exposure Statement This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. The table below indicates the recommended minimum distances of operation from the human body as shown from the MPE (Maximum Permissible Exposure) calculation: Minimum Distance General Public/Uncontrolled Exposure 50 cm (20 inches) Minimum Distance Occupational/Controlled Exposure 22 cm (9 inches) This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Industry Canada Statements of Conformity This device complies with RSS-210 of the Industry Canada 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.
