1 - 3Preparing InstallationBefore installing your Outdoor Wireless LAN system for your outdoorapplication in a hard-to-reach location, we recommend that you configureand test all the devices first.For configuring the Outdoor Router/Bridge, you need follow the quick stepsbelow to power up your Router/Bridge:Step 1: With the unit powered off, attach one end of the RF cable to theantenna connector and then connect the antenna to the other end of the RFcable as shown in Figure 1.3.Step 2 Plug the female end of the power cord into the Inline Power Injector,and then plug the male end of the power cord into a power outlet or powerstrip. The Power LED on the front of the Inline Power Injector will light up.Step 3 Run the cross over Ethernet cable (included in your package) fromData Input Port (on the front of the Inline Power Injector) to the Ethernet Porton a PC.NOTE: This connection is required for setting up initial configuration1 - 4information. After configuration is completed, this cable will be removed, andthen you should run an Ethernet cable from Data Input Port (on the front ofthe Inline Power Injector) to the LAN connection (such as to a hub, bridge ordirectly into a patch panel).Step 4 Plug the MIL-C-5015 style Ethernet connector into the SpecialEthernet port on the back of the Router/Bridge.Step 5 Plug the RJ-45 Ethernet connector (the other end of the SpecialEthernet cable) into the Power & Data Output Port on the front of the InlinePower Injector.When the Router/Bridge receives power over the Ethernet cable, theRouter/Bridge will start its boot sequence and the Active LED on the front ofthe Inline Power Injector will light up.You can configure the Router/Bridge using the HTML browser, such asInternet Explorer or Netscape Navigator from a remote host or PC.(Please consult the “Quick Setup” section).
1 - 5Outdoor InstallationOutdoor Router/Bridge device can be mounted on the side of abuilding or mounted to an antenna mast as shown in Figure 1.5 andFigure 1.6.A wall (side) mountallows for mounting anantenna (mast) on theside of a building or onthe side of an elevatorpenthouse. This willprovide a convenientmounting locationwhen the roofoverhang is notexcessive and/or thelocation is highenough to provide aclear line of sight.In most situationsmounting an antennadirectly to the wall willnot allow you toproperly align theantenna with thecorresponding antennaat the opposite end ofyour wireless link. Aspoor alignment willtypically result in poor performance, we advise you to always mountthe Outdoor Router/Bridge and antenna to a mast.Antenna Mast RequirementsTo accommodate the outdoor antennas, the antenna mast must satisfythe following requirements:a. The construction of the mast must be of a sturdy, weatherproof andno corrosive material like for example galvanized or stainless steelconstruction pipe.1 - 6b. Typical diameter of the mast should be between 35 mm (1.4 in.) and41 mm (1.625 in.). Subject to the type of antenna that you intend toinstall other diameters may be possible as well.c. The height of the antenna mast must be sufficient to allow theantenna to be installed at least 1.5 m (5 ft.) above the peak of roof. If theroof is metal, then the height of the antenna should be a minimum of 3m (10 ft) above the roof.d. The mast or wall-bracket must be free from any substance that maypreventa good electrical connection with the antenna; for example, paint.GroundingA safety groundingsystem is necessary toprotect your outdoorinstallation fromlightning strikes andthe build-up of staticelectricity.So direct grounding ofthe antenna mast,Outdoor Router/BridgeandSurge Arrester is veryimportant. TheOutdoor Router/Bridgehas built in SurgeArrester. So Mountingthe OutdoorRouter/Bridge on theantenna mast, youhave to connect theOutdoor Router/Bridgeto the same groundingsystem with the ACwall outlet.The grounding system must comply with the National Electrical Codeand safety standards that apply in your country. Always check with a
1 - 7qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether your outdoorinstallation is properly grounded.Antenna AlignmentFor optimal performance of your wireless link, make sure that theantennas are properly aligned (facing one another “eye-to-eye”). Toalign the antennas:_ Use a pair of binoculars and/or a map of the area and compass topoint the antennas to one another._ Use the Utility- “Wireless Link Info” in the Web Configure asdescribed in the "Utility " section to analyze the radio link quality.The “Wireless Link Info” will enable you to display the levels of signalstrength and link quality.Looking at the Wireless Link Info screen, you can interactivelyoptimize antenna alignment if required, by making small modificationsin the antenna orientation._ Alternatively, consult a professional Antenna Installation Service tooptimize the antenna alignment.Omni-directional antennas are characterized by a wide radiationpattern. Therefore alignment of this type of antennas is less criticalthan for directional antennas.
