airPoint XO Series Page 10 of 24 Select the most appropriate place on the roof which will provide a direct view to the Access Point. Secure a 1.5 inch steel pipe vertically and insure that it cannot come off with wind force. Attach the bracket of the airPoint XO™ or XO2™ unit with the 2pcs of U bolts to the pipe. Make sure to tighten both top and bottom mounting plates to the pipe with U bolts, nuts and spring washers. Tighten the nuts so that the bracket does not rotate on the pipe. The mounting should be such that the antenna socket, LED's, Ethernet cable outlet face downward. Note: 1. Do not mount the unit upside down with RF connectors facing up. 2. There are no user adjustable parts inside and it is recommended that the unit is used in the same way it is shipped. 3. Make sure that the unit is mechanically well secured to the mounting tower, pole, mast or wall. 4. Radio communications requires Radio Line of Sight (RLOS) or Visual Line of Sight. Therefore, it is essential that the antennas connected to the airPoint XO™ or XO2™ and the Access Point Clients, are in line of sight without any obstruction. 4.2 Mounting the Antenna Antenna should be mounted on the same pipe as the airPoint XO™ or XO2™ and positioned above it. The height of the antenna and direction should be in the direction of the Client devices. The antenna socket of the airPoint XO™ or XO2™ and the antenna input have to be connected by an RG 8 N Male to N Male cable. Note: 1. Use a low loss coaxial cable, such as LMR400 (times microwave), with not more than a 2 meter length connecting the device to the antenna. 2. Use good quality N (male) connectors on the coaxial cable from sources such an Amphenol.

airPoint XO Series Page 11 of 24 3. Seal the RF connectors both at the antenna and the SB device side from the natural elements using weatherproofing tape provided. Do not skimp or skip on this. 4. Choose the antenna of the correct gain and radiating angle to meet the requirements for the system setup. Avoid using channels which are already in use. Use the IEEE 802.11b recommended non-overlapping channels: 1, 6 & 11 only or any other non-overlapping channel combo. The antenna polarity (vertical / horizontal) should be consistent for all the stations in the network. 5. It is illegal to use an amplifier with this device.For more details, follow the mounting instructions provided by the antenna manufacturer. 4.3 Cabling The airPoint XO™ and XO2™ provides a weatherproof RJ45 female connector for outdoor use. Use an outdoor rated, shielded, Ethernet CAT5 cable, such as OSP category 5 (BBDN) cable from Superior Essex. Route the cable to the outdoor devices, away from any strong electromagnetic radiation sources, such as, radio or TV transmitters, power line transformers or any other strong Electromagnetic Interference or Transmission source. Preferably, the Ethernet cable has to be routed through a pipe to the tower on which the unit is mounted. Note: 1. Make sure not to use an unnecessarily long Ethernet cable. 2. Make sure the weather proof connector is correctly used as per the instructions enclosed with it. The cable entry gland nuts of the weather proof connector should be tightened so that no water seepage takes place. Do not strain the weather proof connector. Make sure to crimp the shield of the cable to the metallic shield of the RJ45 connector.

airPoint XO Series Page 12 of 24 3. Suitable cable ties should be used to hold the cable rigidly along its path. Make sure that the cable does not pull or cause strain on the weather proof connector on the airPoint XO™ devices. 4. Do not make sharp bends. Provide bending radius of minimum 2 inches (50mm). Refer to the cable and connector installation instructions placed inside the weatherproof connector for more detailed information. 4.4 LEDs Status 1. Power : Green 2.

airPoint XO Series Page 14 of 24 7. Frequently Asked Questions How does the airPoint XO™ differs from some other available products? The airPoint XO™ is designed to provide Bandwidth Management function from the Access Point box, which houses the radio, rather than the commonly used method of managing bandwidth from the NOC. Why is this a better way of handling Bandwidth Management? Doing bandwidth control at the Point of Service (at individual access points) (A) obviates the need to bring back all the backhaul from multiple access points in the WISP network to the central NOC and process it there. This frees up valuable network resources. (B) Distributing the bandwidth management function also ensures that incidental bandwidth throttling failure at NOC does not cripple bandwidth management across the entire network. Does one have to buy additional software to use Bandwidth Management with airPoint XO™ series? No. WISPs no longer need to buy additional software to do bandwidth management; this now comes built-in with airPoint XO™ products. If an airPoint XO2™ is used at the NOC, will the receiving radio have to be an airPoint XO™ to be able to use all XO™ series features or would an airPoint Pro Outdoor™ be sufficient? If yes, what would be a typical scenario? The airPoint XO2™ is built to work with all standard client devices and the airPoint Pro Outdoor™. For instance, an airPoint XO™ can provide bandwidth limiting to airPoint Outdoor™ access point, deployed further down the network tree. Can minimum and maximum bandwidth be set? Yes. Bandwidth can be throttled in steps of 64Kbps, till a maximum of 5 Mbps, to suit the WISP’s requirement. The airPoint XO™ series allows upstream as well as downstream bandwidth control. The service provider can set up different categories based on bandwidth purchased. Users can be grouped by profiles, based on allowed bandwidth limits. This allows customer segmentation and optimal pricing possibilities. Can radius authentication be done using usernames and passwords (not on IP or MAC address)? Yes. The airPoint XO™ series supports RADIUS based authentication. This is based on MAC address. Support for authentication based on IP address will soon follow.

airPoint XO Series Page 15 of 24 Is bandwidth throttling based on radius profiles possible? Dynamic RADIUS based control is supported for large networks. Bandwidth control can be implemented using static IP lists for small networks. In airPoint XO2™, does each radio have independent WEP key, ESSID, and channel. Is it possible to set it differently? Yes. Each radio parameter can be set differently. This significantly enhances the flexibility of configurations that the airPoint XO2™ can provide. What is built-in temperature sensor used for? The built-in temperature sensor helps to monitor the device temperature, at any point of time. This is extremely useful in maintenance/ management and troubleshooting when required. Can different speed limits be set for upstream and downstream connectivity? Yes. Asymmetrical bandwidth control is possible with the airPoint XO™ series. Is multi-mode functionality supported? Yes. The airPoint XO™ series supports multi-mode functionality. The aP XO™ can be configured as an access point, wireless bridge, client-bridge or repeater. The aPXO2™ can be configured as a twin access point, access point- backhaul, full-repeater or access point-standby. Does the airPoint XO™ Series lock the radios at different speeds or does it throttle the speed via IP? Bandwidth control is done using the MAC address. A static table can be used in the unit (similar to MAC authentication table) or an external RADIUS can be used as well to authenticate as well as provide the rate control information for each client. How is the radio protected with grounding? Grounding studs are provided on the back of the radio case as well as on the PoE Outdoor, which is supplied with the product. Can the existing airPoint Pro Outdoor be upgraded to airPoint XO™? No. The existing airPoint PRO Outdoor is essentially different from the airPoint XO™. The latter uses a 48V power supply and supports bandwidth management. Hence, the airPoint Pro Outdoor cannot be upgraded to an airPoint XO™.
