4Hardware ConnectionSite ConsiderationEnsure a clear line of sight between the wireless devices for optimum performance. An elevated location is recommended as obstacles like trees, buildings and large steel structures will weaken the wireless signal. See 'Q2' in 'FAQ' for details about how to calculate the minimum mounting height of the devices.Mounting HeightLine of SightSide View
5OrientationInstall the CPE devices so that they point towards the devices that will receive the signal. You can orient the devices with the help of Google Maps, GPS and some landmarks. The horizontal bandwidth of CPE610 is 6.8°.AshenzhenBLine of SightHorizontal Beamwidth
61. Attach the Side Reflector Panels to the Center Reflector Panel as follows:a. Insert the two mounting studs on the Center Reflector Panel into the large opening of the slots on the Side Reflector Panel.b. Slide the Side Reflector Panel until the mounting studs are positioned over the narrow opening of the slots, and the top edges of the panels should be aligned when done.Hardware Installation
7c. Repeat step a and step b to attach the other Side Reflector Panel.d. (Optional) Attach the Side Reflector Panels to the Center Reflector Panel more securely using four M2.5x8 bolts and nuts (not provided).

21How to calculate the minimum mounting heightof the devices?In order to maximize the received signal strength of the devices, you need to minimize the effect of the out-of-phase signals, which is caused by obstacles in the path between the transmitter and the receiver. Fresnel Zone is a usual method to calculate this path, as shown in the formula and the figure below.Q2.h = the height ofobstacle at this point H h+r*(1 40%)(H is the height of the CPE)d2rd1where,r = Fresnel zone radius in metersc = 3x108 m/s, speed of lightf = operating frequency of the devices in Hzd1 & d2 = the distances between the point and the devices in metersFor example, assume d1 is 2km, d2 is 8km, and f is 2.4GHz, then r would be 14.142m. Considering a toleration of 40%, allowable radius would be 8.485m. Assume h is 10m, then the result of the minimum mounting height based on this point would be 18.485m. Similarly, calculate the results based on all the points where there are obstacles, and the maximum value would be the final result.For more information, please refer to:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_zonefcddddru 2121
22What is Pharos MAXtream?Pharos MAXtream is a proprietary protocol developed on the basis of Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) by TP-Link.The MAXtream technology has the following advantages:Eliminates hidden node collisions & improves channel efficiency.Lower latency, higher throughput, larger network capacity & more stability.Improves the QoS for video, voice and sound data stream.By dividing the timing of transmission into different time slots, MAXtream allows the Pharos devices to transmit in rapid succession, one after another, each stream using its own time slot to transmit and receive frames, which greatly reduces the chance of collision.Pharos MAXtream is a non-standard Wi-Fi protocol that is only compatible with TP-Link’s Pharos series products. Please note that you will not be able to connect other Wi-Fi devices to an AP with MAXtream enabled.Q3.Log in to PharOS, click Spectrum Analysis in the tools drop-down list, a window will pop up to remind you that all wireless connections will be lost during spectrum analysis. Click Yes to continue to the Spectrum Analysis page.1. How can I use Spectrum Analysis to find the appropriate channel for the devices?Q4.
232.Click Start, PharOS will begin to analyze the power of frequency. Observe the curves for a period of time, and then click Stop. Note that the relatively low and continuous part of the average curve indicates less radio noise. Here, we use the figure below as an example. 3. When choosing channel/frequency, you should avoid the spectrum with large radio noise. In this example, the recommended channel/ frequency is 112/5560MHz.
