MWS100 Installation Guide (this document)
Other accessories may be provided by your supplier or system integrator. To
complete the installation of the MWS100, the following items will be required:
1. Antenna(s). The MWS100 contains two 802.11 (Wi-Fi) radios. The first
radio operates in the 2.4 GHz band. The second radio operates in the 5
GHz band. Specific frequencies used are country / model dependent.
One antenna is required for each band you will be operating on.
2. Antenna Cable(s). A suitable length of antenna cable is required for
each antenna. Type LMR-200 cable is recommended with R-SMA
connectors for attachment to the MWS100.
3. Mounting Hardware. Suitable mounting hardware must be provided
depending upon specific installation requirements.

Front Panel Indicators
PWR LED – This indicator displays the
status of the MWS100 power source. It
will illuminate when power is applied top
the unit.
SIG LED – This indicator displays the
operational status of the MWS100 radios. Rapid
blinking (4 blinks per second) indicates that the
radios are beginning operation (rebooting). Slow
blinking (once per second) indicates that the
OWS100 Station radio is seeking a signal from a
Strix OWS Access Point. A sequence of two or
more slow blinks indicates that a connection with
a Strix OWS access point has been achieved,
then the relative signal strength (2 blinks
indicates low signal strength, 5 blinks indicates
high signal strength).

Installation
Note: The MWS100 must be installed by a trained professional installer only.
Failure to comply fully with these instructions may void the MWS100 warranty
and/or violate local safety or radio regulations.
1. Select a mounting location for the MWS100. The MWS100 is designed for
mounting in an interior compartment or trunk of an automobile. It is not
intended for outdoor deployment. The MWS100 must not be exposed to liquids.
Mount the MWS100 using the chassis mounting holes and hardware suitable
for the particular installation.
2. Select antennas with gain specifications according to the table below.
Note: The maximum allowable power for each antenna type is noted in the last column.
installer must set the power correctly for the chosen antennas.

3. Mount the selected antennas securely onto the vehicle following all antenna
manufacturer instructions and recommendations. Provide a suitable length of
LMR-200 type antenna cable between each antenna and the MWS100. If
using only one antenna, connect it to the port labeled “MAIN”. Connect a
second antenna to the port labeled “AUX”.
RF Exposure Requirements
To ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, the antenna used for
this wireless network device must be installed to provide a separation distance of a
minimum of 40cm or more from all persons, and must not be co-located or operated
in conjunction with any other antenna or radio transmitter. Installers and end-users
must follow these installation instructions.

4. Using the supplied fused power cable, connect the BLACK wire to the vehicle
ground and then attach the RED wire to the vehicle positive DC supply. The
MWS100 is designed to operate from a minimum of 11 VDC* to a maximum of
52 VDC and a maximum current draw of 2 A.
* A low-voltage cut-off circuit prevents the MWS100 from draining the vehicle
battery. The unit will automatically power down when the DC voltage falls
below 10.5 VDC. Operation will be restored once the DC voltage rises above
11.5 VDC.
The MWS100 may also be powered over its Ethernet port (LAN) by a PoE
power injector capable of sourcing 20 W.
5. Provide an Ethernet cable for connecting the MWS100 to a computer or router.
6. Attach the supplied fused power cable to the PWR connector on the EWS100
rear panel. Observe the LED indicator activity as described on page 2.
Configuration and Troubleshooting
If the MWS100 was provided by the Systems Integrator or WISP responsible for
operation of the Strix OWS network, then it will have been pre-configured for
correct operation on the wireless network (SSID, security, and other configuration
settings). Otherwise, contact the WISP for these settings and configuration
assistance.
If access to the troubleshooting feature has been made available, then a
convenient means to verify settings and network connection exists. On the Web
interface, click on the Monitor tab then click on Troubleshooting to display the
Troubleshooting window. Click on the Start Troubleshooting button to begin the
process.
