84.3 CONNECTING POWER AND DATA SOURCE CABLES WARNING!: Do not attempt to connect or disconnect any components while the D-Link DWL-2100AP WAP or Shock-WAV signal booster are plugged into power. Doing so may cause equipment damage and/or physical injury and will void your warranty.Figure 4 312Power SupplyCoax CableEthernetPowerData SourcePowerPower connections are the same for both PW-FC1 units. The PW-FC1 - Single antenna is show in figure 4. Connect your Data source Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the back of the D-Link DWL-2100AP, (Figure 4) 1. Connect the D-Link Power supply the power port on the back of the DWL-2100AP 2. Connect the 48V AC-DC power supply to the Signal Booster port labeled, 12-48V DC IN 3. Plug the power supplies into your 100-240V compatible power source.(Consult your D-Link Documentation for more information on the DWL-2100AP).5 - ANTENNA PLACEMENTLuxul Wireless products, particularly those implementing our patented signal booster technology, are often capable of emitting enough signal strength to cover the desired area regardless of orientation. For best results, the Antenna should be deployed where the maximum amount of signal can be sent throughout the desired coverage area.
ShoCk-WAV SiGnAL booStER USER GUidE95.1 ANTENNA DEPLOYMENTBe sure you place the antenna so there is a minimum of 2 feet (.6 meters) of open space around it.Figure 5 Figure 6 Figure 5 (Single antenna) and 6 (Dual Antenna) show the recommended Antenna deployments and how loss of the signal coverage can happen due to bad antenna placement.
105.2 ANTENNA DIRECTIONFor maximum coverage it is important to have your antenna pattern radiating in the correct direction. The pattern radiates out in a cone shape pattern away from the antenna. If the antenna is tipped at an angle, the pattern will radiate out at that angle. See Figure 7 for an example of pattern radiation.Figure 7 6 - REGULATORY COMPLIANCEThis device is approved under the Luxul Wireless brand and designed to comply for use spe-cifically with the D-Link DWL-2100AP. This device is designed to be compliant with rules and regulations in locations where they are sold and will be labeled as required. Any changes or modifications to Luxul equipment, not expressly approved by Luxul, could void the user’s au-thority to operate the equipment. This Luxul device when used in conjunction with the D-Link DWL-2100AP should be professionally installed and the Radio Frequency Output Power will not exceed the maximum allowable limit for those countries that have regulatory approval. Antennas: Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antennas. Unauthorized anten-nas, modifications, or attachments could cause damage and may violate regulatory approvals.
ShoCk-WAV SiGnAL booStER USER GUidE116.1 HEALTH AND SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONSWarnings for the use of Wireless Devices: Please observe all warning notices with regard to the usage of wireless devicesPotentially Hazardous Atmospheres: You are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio devices in fuel depots, chemical plants etc. and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust, or metal powders). Safety in Hospitals: Wireless devices transmit radio frequency energy and may affect medical electrical equipment. When installed adjacent to other equipment, it is advised to verify that the adjacent equipment is not adversely affected.Power Supply: Use only a Luxul approved power supply output rated at 48VDC and minimum 0.25A. The power supply shall be Listed to UL/CSA 60950-1; and certified to IEC60950-1 and EN60950-1 with SELV outputs. The device can also be powered from a compliant POE source. Use of alternative power supply will invalidate any approval given to this device and may be dangerous.6.2 RF EXPOSURE GUIDELINESSafety Information: The device complies with internationally recognized standards covering human exposure to electromagnetic fields from radio devices.Warning: Exposure To Radio Frequency (RF) Radiation: • The radiated output of this device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the device should be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact during normal operation is minimized.• The end user must avoid any extended human RF exposure directly in front of the Model PW-FC1, up to a distance of 20cm, when unit is switched on.• When servicing the equipment and selecting a location for the antennas, it is important to note that a minimum distance of 20cm is required between personnel and the Model PW-FC1 antennas to comply with the radio frequency exposure limit.• The antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
12• The following safety precautions should be observed: − Do not touch or move the antenna while the unit is transmitting or receiving. − Do not hold any component containing the radio such that the antenna is very close or touching any exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. − Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is connected; this behavior may cause damage to the radio.Remote and Standalone Antenna Configurations: To comply with FCC RF exposure require-ments, antennas that are mounted externally at remote locations or operating near users at stand-alone desktop of similar configurations must operate with a minimum separation distance of 20 cm from all persons.6.3 RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE REQUIREMENTS—FCCThis 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 turn-ing the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more 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.6.4 RADIO TRANSMITTERS (PART 15)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.
ShoCk-WAV SiGnAL booStER USER GUidE136.5 INDUSTRY CANADA ( RSS-GEN ISSUE 2)In accordance with Industry Canada Regulations, this radio frequency power amplifier may only be used with a transmitter with which the amplifier has been certified by Industry Canada. The Industry Canada Identification Number for the transmitter with which this amplifier is permitted to operate is 4216A-WL2100APThis PW-FC1 - Single Antenna is designed to work with one XW-24-FP7 antenna. This PW-FC1 - dual Antenna is designed to work with two XW-24-FP7 antennas. The XW-24-FP7 antenna has a maximum linear gain of 4dBi or maximum CP gain of 7dBi. Any antenna having a gain greater than 4dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interfer-ence, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.7 - SALES AND SUPPORT CONTACTSFor Sales Assistance:Luxul Wireless 357 South 670 West, Suite 160 Lindon, UT 84042 sales@luxulwireless.comFor Technical Assistance: Luxul Wireless 357 South 670 West, Suite 160 Lindon, UT 84042 support@luxulwireless.com
