WF824 Getting Started Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 4 Connection Scenario For outdoor CPE product, it is suggested that the CPE device be installed in a shaded area to avoid direct sun light exposure and prolong the device life. To power on the device, the outdoor CPE use a 48V PoE integrated DC power supply adapter. The power adapter can operate in 90-250V AC range and therefore can be used in different countries. Once the device is powered up, the user should wait for about 2 minutes before the device becomes operational. For CPE with the SYS LED indicator, a slowly flashing light indicates the system has completed the startup procedure. To connect your PC, LAN switch, or other type of IP device to the CPE device, the user should use standard CAT5 Ethernet cable and connect to the LAN port. Once connected, the CPE ETH LED indicator should come on. To obtain the best radio signal level and connection quality, the CPE antenna should be directed towards the best serving cell. To search for the best serving cell direction, the user can rotate the CPE slowly and/or tilt the CPE slightly to find the best signal direction. The CPE radio signal strength level can be observed from the RF LEDs mounted on the lower panel as shown below. The more LEDs on, the better the signal strength.
