4. TDMA
Currently, most long-distance wireless broadband network bridge products developed from 802.11
WLAN technologies. The built-in operation system integrated TDMA,20M/40MHz bandwidth flexible
configuration, rate control, Auto ACK-Timeout Adjust and several other industry-leading technology,
which is an ideal product of long-distance wireless broadband access. Among those, TDMA effectively
solved the problem of hidden node which bothers large-scale point-to-multipoint WLAN. 20M/40MHz
bandwidth flexible configuration achieved a balance between scarce wireless bandwidth resource and
complex working scenario: narrower wireless bandwidth configuration is used in the situation where
there are less free wireless channels and a single user wireless access rate requirement is not high;
wider wireless bandwidth configuration is used under the situation where there are more free wireless
channels and single user wireless access rate requirement is high. Besides the narrower wireless
bandwidth configuration is more effective in the environment with block. Operation system adopts
advanced rate control algorithm which can quickly adapt to channel quality change and at the same time
keep the rate stable as much as possible, which is very suitable for long-distance wireless transmission.
Auto ACK-Timeout Adjust technology can auto detect the distance between access point and client;
adjust wireless parameter to optimize the device performance. See Figure 12 for client TDMA.
Figure 12
When you enable TDMA function, AP end needs to enable TDMA, client needs to set a priority. Different
clients ask for different demand for bandwidth when one AP links to several clients, but the setting of
priority is done according to clients’ demand of bandwidth for current device. We recommend users to
set priority as high if the demand for bandwidth id high, otherwise, priority should be set as low priority.
Anyway, all the clients’ priority can be set same if they have the same demand for bandwidth.
Attention: The TDMA of AP and client should both be open when you want to enable TDMA function.

The TDMA from other factories can’t communicate with our TDMA. If both our device and device from
other factories enable TDMA, then both sides can’t be connected.

6. Wireless Setting
More information about wireless setting.
There are five types of wireless mode of the device: AP mode, client mode, WDS client mode, WDS
Repeater
AP : Client device like computer, cell phone, wireless bridge and etc can connect to wireless access
node. One AP can connect several clients.
CPE/Client: It needs to be used cooperatively with AP, it connects to AP. One client can only connect to
one AP.
WDS Client: Same as client can only connect to WDS access point or WDS repeater, and one WDS
client can only be connected to one WDS access point or WDS repeater.
WDS Access Point: Can only connected to WDS repeater or WDS client, meanwhile one WDS access
point can connect to several WDS client or WDS repeater.
WDS Repeater: Can connect to WDS client or WDS repeater at the same time.
SSID: Used to control the value of access to wireless network. When other devices try to connect to this
device, only with same setting of SSID can they realize intercommunication and build LAN.
As shown in Figure 20, users can search the names of surrounding wireless network by click “select” on
the right of network name, and then connect to corresponding wireless network according to his own
demand.
Frequency: Center frequency of carries wave, bandwidth is the left-right offset of the center frequency. It
needs to be set parameter when it is used as AP mode. Users can select several frequencies when it is
client mode. Client can’t connect to AP when the frequency of AP is not the frequency selected by client.
Only when the frequency of AP is one of the frequencies selected by client can they be interconnected.

set WAN mode as DHCP or static IP according to the fact whether there is DHCP server on the main
network, meanwhile, LAN IP users can modify the IP according to their demand, but they are
recommended not to modify IP too often, just in case the IP is forgotten and it will bring a lot of
trouble to your own life. When there is no DHCP in the external network to which DH-PFM88X is
connected, then the users need to set relevant parameters manually. At this moment, WAN IP is set
differently with the IP of other hosts from external network to which DH-PFM88X is connected, other
parameters can be set the same as the host which connects to the main network. For example: WAN
subnet mask, main DNS, auxiliary DNS, gateway can be set the same as other hosts which connect
to external network, the way of setting LAN IP and LAN subnet mask should be the same as the way
of setting DHCP.
Attention: LAN IP can’t be set as the same segment with WAN IP
2. Wireless setting page->set wireless mode as access point, network name can be any name, users
can set output power according to the distance between the devices, it is recommended to set the

12. FAQ
1. The device can’t boot up normally:
(1). The network cable between CPE device and POE module is over 40m.
(2). The quality of network cable didn’t meet the standard of UTP-5 categories.
(3) The crystal head of network cable is insecure or cable sequence error (remake the crystal head)
2. Forgot IP address and unable to restore factory default
Please press Reset button for 5-10 seconds, try to input 192.168.1.36 IP to log in the device after all the
LED lights are on.
3. Why can’t fine wireless access point in my computer?
Solution: wireless system is connected with max working rate, the exact rate depends on distance and
![](/img.php?id=2433243&img=bg2b.png)
Dahua 5.8GHz Wireless AP/CPE User Manual
- 39 -
environment. Users can detect the following steps to make sure the max possible connection rate is
obtained.
(1) The location of wireless access point
Try to adjust the location and direction of wireless access point.
(2) Wireless channel
The interference could be obviously improved if you use other communication channel;
(3) Wireless interference
Other devices may also cause interference, so try to shut off other devices and check if the situation is
improved. Users also can shield the devices which cause interference or adjust the position.
4. The signal intensity is too low.
(1) It is not visible between CPE and AP due to bigger blocks.
(2) The surface plate of CPE doesn’t face AP directly; the vertical angle between AP and CPE is not
suitable.
(3) CPE is installed on the window, which may cause interference.
(4) The distance between AP and CPE is too far.
5. Why is the signal intensity high but the throughput capacity low?
Reasons:
(1) Too much interference or multipath interference.
(2) Something is wrong with the device Ethernet port.
6. Frequent packet loss, serious packet loss with several devices in the same area, it will be
better when communication channel is changed.
Same frequency interference will be caused if several DH-PFM88X are used in the same area without
separate the channels of two devices. Users are recommended to separate the frequencies of them so
as not to make the communication channels overlapped. It is recommended to make the frequency
![](/img.php?id=2433243&img=bg2c.png)
Dahua 5.8GHz Wireless AP/CPE User Manual
- 40 -
difference between two devices over 20M if the width of communication channel is 20M.
7. Packet loss and big time delay for ping device address of the computer
(1) Port isolation for AP which connects the same POE switch.
(2) Bad pressing and connection for cable crystal head (remake crystal head)
8. Users often lose connection and the speed is low.
(1) Too many users of AP access.
(2) Weak AP signal.
(3) Too many serious interference signals in the surrounding, client and AP are not binded.
(4) Check user number and if the upper level network bandwidth is already full.
13. Construction attention for wireless bridge and monitoring.
13.1 Construction attention
1. The horizontal direction and vertical angle of antenna
Try to make the AP antenna on the base station slope down a certain angle because the antenna
between base station and wireless bridge is directional. Meanwhile, try to make AP and client antenna
aim each other horizontally.
2. Height for setting antenna
There are some certain requirements for the distance between two points and height for setting antenna
during the actual wireless communication between two points due to the fact that the earth is a sphere.
Please refer to the following sheet for more details.
Frequency 3Km 5Km 10Km 15Km

3. Geographical environment
Place for the farthest distance of communication is sea level and clear flat land, which is the
generally-used geographical condition to evaluate the communication distance of wireless
communication devices. The second farthest are places like rural area, hill, riverbed and other half
obstacle, half open environment. The shortest communication distance is place like city building complex
or among mountains. In a word, the more intensive the obstacles are, the more influence it will cause to
wireless communication distance, especially to metal objects. Therefore, make sure the client and
access point are directly visible during the actual construction;
4. Electromagnetic environment
Direct current dynamo, grid system, switching power, electric welding machine, high frequency
electronics, computer, single chip and other devices all can cause different levels of influence to
communication distance of communication devices.
5. Climatic condition
The communication distance will be longer if the air is dry; the communication distance will be shorter if
the air is wet (especially rainy, snowy weather)
6. Try to avoid same frequency and adjacent frequency interference
Users need to search what frequencies that other devices are using first when setting the frequency of
access point, which has to avoid these frequencies as far as possible. Meanwhile, the access point
frequency has to be separated a certain distance from the surrounding frequencies which are being used
in order to prevent adjacent frequency interference. For example, when communication channel width is
20M, so it has to be separated over 20M from the frequency being used. Meanwhile, the frequency
between each AP should be set like this.
13.2 Test Situation
Testing distance: 3.5 km
