1.3 Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output
ORiNOCO® Access Point devices support Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna technology that uses multiple
antennas at both the transmitting end and receiving end to improve communication performance. The underlying technology
of these access point radio(s) are based on a combination of MIMO and OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing).
MIMO-OFDM combination radios solve interference, fading and multipath problems. Having multiple receivers at the
receiving end, increases the amount of received power and also reduces multipath problems by combining the received
signals for each frequency component separately. Hence, MIMO significantly improves the overall gain.
MIMO also uses Spatial multiplexing transmission technique to transmit independent and separately encoded data signals
from each of the multiple transmit antennas while reusing or multiplexing in the space dimension. These independent data
signals are called Spatial streams. The transmitting end of the device uses multiple radio Tx chains and signal paths to
simultaneously transmit different data streams, whereas the receiving end combines the Rx signals resulting in higher
throughput.
By increasing the number of receiving and transmitting antennas, the throughput of the channel increases linearly resulting in
high spectral efficiency.

Hardware Overview and Installation
• Note that the device is build with fire retardant FR3020 material and can be installed in the plenum. In an office
building, plenum is the space between the structural ceiling and the tile ceiling that is provided to help air circulate.
Many companies also use the plenum to house communication equipment and cables. These products and cables must
comply with certain safety requirements, such as Underwriter Labs (UL) and Standard 2043: “Standards for Fire Test for
Heat and Visible Smoke Release for Direct Products and Their Accessories installed in Air-Handling Spaces”.
• When installed in a plenum, the device must use PoE.
Conduct a site survey to determine the best location for the device. You can either mount the device to a wall or mount it to
the T-bar ceiling, as follows:
Wall-Mounting:
To mount the device to a wall:
1. Place the mounting plate on the wall such that the embossed letter ‘L’ is at the top-center position and the vent-holes
are facing your left hand side.

Access point
A wireless network transceiver or “base station” hub, often used to
connect a local area network to one or more wireless devices. An access
point (also called AP) can provide a communication link to a wired local
area network also.
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)
It is a symmetric-key encryption standard, containing three block ciphers
AES-128, AES-192, AES-256. Each of these ciphers has a 128-bit block
size, with key sizes of 128, 192 and 256 bits, respectively.
Dual-Band
Dual-band refers to a device's ability to function on two different
frequency bands.
HTTP/HTTPS
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is the protocol to transport Web pages.
When you access the Internet with your browser, the HTTP protocol is
used for data transport (http://www.Tsunamiwireless.com). When you
access the unit by using the Web Interface, HTTP is used to transport the
information. HTTPS is the Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol.
Management Information Base (MIB)
A Management Information Base (MIB) is a formal description of a set of
network objects that can be managed with the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP). A MIB can be loaded by a management
application so that it knows the unit specific objects.
Orthogonal Frequency Division
Multiplexing (OFDM)
OFDM is a frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) scheme, a method of
encoding digital data on multiple carrier frequencies. A large number of
closely spaced orthogonal sub-carrier signals are used to carry data. The
data is divided into several parallel data streams/channels, one for each
sub-carrier, maintaining total data rates similar to conventional
single-carrier modulation schemes in the same bandwidth.

application is called the SNMP manager and the devices it manages will
have SNMP agents. Not only the unit but also almost every network device
contains a SNMP agent. The manageable objects of a device are arranged
in a Management Information Base, also called MIB. The Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) allows managers and agents to
communicate for accessing these objects.
Single-Band
Single-band refers to a device's ability to function only on one frequency
band.
TCP / IP
The TCP/IP internet-suite protocol describes a set of general design
guidelines and implementations of specific networking protocols to
enable computers to communicate over a network. TCP/IP provides
end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be formatted,
addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination.
Telnet
Telnet is a network protocol used on the Internet or local area networks to
access the command-line interface, on a remote host. Most network
equipment and operating systems with a TCP/IP stack support a Telnet
service for remote configuration.
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a lightweight protocol for transferring
files that is like a simple form of File Transfer Protocol (FTP). A TFTP client is
implemented on the unit. By using the upload and download commands,
the unit can copy a file to or from a TFTP server.
VLAN
The Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) feature helps in logical grouping of
network host on different physical LAN segments, which can
communicate with each other as if they are all on the same physical LAN
segment.

Wi-Fi Protected Access is a security standard based on IEEE 802.11i
specification, that provides a high level of wireless network security. It
uses data encryption through the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP).
TKIP scrambles the keys and ensures that the keys are not tampered with.
User authentication is performed through the Extensible Authentication
Protocol (EAP), to ensure that only authorized network users can access
the network.
