Preparing Installation
Before installing your Outdoor Wireless LAN system for your outdoor
application in a hard-to-reach location, we recommend that you configure
and test all the devices first.
For configuring the Outdoor Router/Bridge, you need follow the quick steps
below to power up your Router/Bridge:
Step 1: With the unit powered off, attach one end of the RF cable to the
antenna connector and then connect the antenna to the other end of the RF
cable as shown in following:
NOTE: This connection is required for setting up initial configuration
information. After configuration is completed, this cable will be removed, and
then you should run an Ethernet cable from Data Input Port (on the front of
the Inline Power Injector) to the LAN connection (such as to a hub, bridge or
directly into a patch panel).
Step 4 Plug the MIL-C-5015 style Ethernet connector into the Special
Ethernet port on the back of the Router/Bridge.
Step 5 Plug the RJ-45 Ethernet connector (the other end of the Special
Ethernet cable) into the Power & Data Output Port on the front of the Inline
Power Injector.
Step 6 Attach the MIL-C-5015 style (RS-232) null modem cable to the Serial
Port Adapter. Connect the other cable end (DB9 female) to a terminal or a
PC running a terminal emulation program.
When the Router/Bridge receives power over the Ethernet cable, the
Router/Bridge will start its boot sequence and the Active LED on the front of
the Inline Power Injector will light up.
Antenna
You can configure the Router/Bridge using the HTML browser, such as
Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator from a remote host or PC.
NOTE: The outdoor Router/Bridge antenna cabling systems be identified by
Reverse Polarity-N connectors (pictured in following)
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 power
strip. 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) from
Data Input Port (on the front of the Inline Power Injector) to the Ethernet Port
on a PC.
6
1.4
Outdoor Installation
Outdoor Router/Bridge device can be mounted on the side of a
building or mounted to an antenna mast as shown in following:
A wall (side) mount allows for mounting an antenna (mast) on the side
of a building or on the side of an elevator penthouse. This will provide
a convenient mounting location when the roof overhang is not
excessive and/or the location is high enough to provide a clear line of
sight.
In most situations mounting an antenna directly to the wall will not
allow you to properly align the antenna with the corresponding
antenna at the opposite end of your wireless link. As poor alignment
will typically result in poor performance, we advise you to always
mount the Outdoor Router/Bridge and antenna to a mast.
8
1.4.1 Antenna Mast Requirements
To accommodate the outdoor antennas, the antenna mast must satisfy
the following requirements:
a. The construction of the mast must be of a sturdy, weatherproof and
no corrosive material like for example galvanized or stainless steel
construction pipe.
b. Typical diameter of the mast should be between 35 mm (1.4 in.) and
41 mm (1.625 in.). Subject to the type of antenna that you intend to
install other diameters may be possible as well.
c. The height of the antenna mast must be sufficient to allow the
antenna to be installed at least 1.5 m (5 ft.) above the peak of roof. If
the roof is metal, then the height of the antenna should be a minimum
of 3 m (10 ft) above the roof.
d. The mast or wall-bracket must be free from any substance that may
prevent
a good electrical connection with the antenna; for example, paint.
1.4.2 Grounding
A safety grounding system is necessary to protect your outdoor
installation from lightning strikes and the build-up of static electricity.
So direct grounding of the antenna mast, Outdoor Router/Bridge and
Surge Arrester is very important. The Outdoor Router/Bridge has built
in Surge Arrester. So Mounting the Outdoor Router/Bridge on the
antenna mast, you have to connect the Outdoor Router/Bridge to the
same grounding system with the AC wall outlet.
The grounding system must comply with the National Electrical Code
and safety standards that apply in your country. Always check with a
qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether your outdoor
installation is properly grounded.
1.4.3 Antenna Alignment
For optimal performance of your wireless link, make sure that the
antennas are properly aligned (facing one another “eye-to-eye”). To
align the antennas:
_ Use a pair of binoculars and/or a map of the area and compass to
point the antennas to one another.
_ Use the Utility- “Wireless Link Info” in the Web Configure as
described in the "Utility " section to analyze the radio link quality.
The “Wireless Link Info” will enable you to display the levels of signal
strength and link quality.
Looking at the Wireless Link Info screen, you can interactively optimize
antenna alignment if required, by making small modifications in the
antenna orientation.
_ Alternatively, consult a professional Antenna Installation Service to
optimize the antenna alignment.
Omni-directional antennas are characterized by a wide radiation
pattern. Therefore alignment of this type of antennas is less critical
than for directional antennas.

Configuration Examples
Remote Wireless Bridge-to-Central Wireless Bridge
Network Topologies
This section describes several main types of installations commonly
implemented using the Outdoor Wireless Router/Bridge System (RB). This is
by no means intended to be an exhaustive list of all possible configurations,
but rather shows examples of some of the more common implementations.
The RB can be configured into two roles: Central Router/Bridge (CRB) and
Remote Router/Bridge (RRB) to accomplish the broadband wireless point-tomultipoint systems (as shown in Figure 2-1).
1. Set the Central RB as a bridge (bridge IP address is 192.168.2.1).
2. Set Wireless parameters on Central RB: Channel (1) and SSID
(wireless)
3. Set the Remote RB as a bridge (bridge IP address is 192.168.2.2).
4. Set Wireless parameters on Remote RB: Channel (1) and SSID
(wireless), these parameters must same with Central RB.
5. Left side subnet is transparent to the right side.
6. DHCP server assign IP address to PC1 and PC2
Figure 2-1
Both the Central RB and the Remote RB can performed in router or bridge
modes. In a Point-to-Multipoint topology, all communication between network
systems is done through a centralized agent. In the Outdoor Wireless
Router/Bridge product, the centralized agent is Central Router or Central
Bridge and the individual network notes may be Remote Router or Remote
Bridge.
To show some possibilities of Point-to-Multipoint topologies, the following
examples are provided:
1. Remote Wireless Bridge-to-Central Wireless Bridge
2. Remote Wireless Router-to-Central Wireless Bridge
3. Remote Wireless Bridge-to-Central Wireless Router
4. Remote Wireless Router-to-Central Wireless Router
