FCC ID: OIA-BR1200 4Step 1 PCMCIA Adapter Quick InstallationUnit will be shipped from the factory with the PCMCIA card installed into theBR1200 radio. Skip to Step 2 if PCMCIA card is factory installed. In theevent that the card needs to be replaced, the following instructions apply.No power should be applied to the BR1200 radio.Install the WL201 PCMCIA card in the PCMCIA slot, then power on.The card should recognize the card automatically.This radio is certified only for use in conjunction with the WL201 PCMCIAcard (FCC ID: MXF-WL201) as supplied by Wireless ManufacturingCompany, LLC (WMC). Other cards may malfunction or cause unacceptablespurious emissions thus voiding the FCC certification and any warranty fromWMC.
FCC ID: OIA-BR1200 5Step 2 BR1200 Installation (separated up to 10 miles) Patch Antenna Option : M/A-Com Part Number: ANAD-159W-A-6-SMThe Wireless LAN Bridge Radio (BR1200) is an integrated weatherproofassembly which includes a WL201 PCMCIA transceiver, 486 computer, andpower conditioning. The BR1200 can be married to the optional square patchantenna assembly. To do this the cable attached to the rear of the patchantenna assembly is connected to the coaxial connector on the PCMCIA card.The antenna assembly with the supplied weather sealing gasket is placed ontothe BR1200 and connected with supplied fasteners.
FCC ID: OIA-BR1200 6Typical installation will include two BR1200’s, each with an installed antennaassembly, located in a direct line-of-sight up to 10 miles apart. Each finishedradio/antenna combination can then be mounted to a suitable mast that hasalready been installed on an outdoor structure. Structures include buildings,towers, chimneys, etc.Initial preparation will be to determine the proper location of each BR1200.Wherever possible, installer will visually site each location. Radios will beaimed at each other using the built in adjustments provided with the mountingbracket.Electrical connections are provided and clearly marked. The connectormarked “LAN” will supply standard IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T data (compliantwith IEEE 802.11) as well as the radio operating voltage of 24V (AC or DC).Connect a suitable Category 5 cable with the connector provided and dress itappropriately to an interior location where it can connect to a the LAN andprime power. An alternate “Power Only” connection is provided in the eventthat 24 V is available closer to the BR1200 installation.
FCC ID: OIA-BR1200 7Step 3 BR1200 Installation (separated 10-20 miles)Wire Grid Parabola Option : California Amplifier Part Number: 130093The Wireless LAN Bridge Radio (BR1200) is an integrated weatherproofassembly which includes a WL201 PCMCIA transceiver, 486 computer, andpower conditioning. The BR1200 can be married to the optional wire gridparabola antenna/cover assembly. The 130093 parabola antenna includes thegrid parabola with attached coaxial cable and connector. It is connected tothe bulkhead connector on the weather cover. A coaxial cable protrudes fromthe rear of the weather cover and is connected to the coaxial connection on theWL201 PCMCIA card. The wire grid parabola antenna/cover assembly withthe supplied weather sealing gasket is placed onto the BR1200 and connectedwith supplied fasteners.
FCC ID: OIA-BR1200 8Typical installation will include two BR1200’s, each with the installedantenna assembly, located in a direct line-of-sight from 10 to 20 miles apart.Each finished radio/antenna combination can then be mounted to a suitablemast which has already been installed on an outdoor structure. Structuresinclude buildings, towers, chimneys, etc.Initial preparation will be to determine the proper location of each BR1200.Wherever possible, installer will visually site each location or consultappropriate reference material for obstructions which would prohibit line-of-site transmissions. In this case the parabolas will be aimed at each other usingthe built in adjustments provided with the mounting bracket.
