Chapter 1 - Product Description
1.1 Introducing the Networking Gateway
IDU
The Networking Gateway Indoor Unit (IDU) enables operators and service
providers using a Broadband Wireless Access system to provide subscribers
with a number of broadband services transparently.
The Networking Gateway IDU together with the SU-ODU comprises a
Subscriber Unit that provides data connections to the Base Station. The
four 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports connect to the user’s data equipment,
providing comprehensive routing functionality and supporting various
security features. User’s data equipment equipped with either IEEE
802.11b (11M) or IEEE 802.11g (54M) compatible wireless adapters can
connect to the unit via its built-in Wireless LAN port, functioning as an
Access Point.
The Networking Gateway IDU is powered from the mains. The Networking
Gateway IDU is connected to the ODU via a category 5E Ethernet cable.
This cable carries the Ethernet data between the two units as well as power
(54 VDC) and control signals to the ODU. It also carries status indications
from the ODU.
The Networking Gateway is designed for remote management and
supervision using either the built-in internal web server or SNMP.
The Networking Gateway is easily updated and upgraded as it supports
remote software and configuration file download.

Auto-sensing Ethernet Switch
Equipped with a 4-port auto-sensing Ethernet switch.
Printer sharing
Embedded print server to allow all of the networked computers to share
one printer through the USB host port.
WAN Types
Support of several WAN types: Static, Dynamic, PPPoE, PPTP, and
Dynamic IP with Road Runner Session Management (e.g., Telstra,
BigPond).
Functions and Features
Firewall
All unwanted packets from outside intruders can be blocked to protect
the Intranet.
DHCP Server Support
All of the networked computers can retrieve TCP/IP settings
automatically from the Networking Gateway.
Web-based configuring

multiple connections, such as Internet gaming, video conferencing,
Internet telephony and so on. The Networking Gateway can sense the
application type port as a trigger and open a multi-port tunnel for it.
DMZ Host Support
NG System Manual
Lets one specific networked computer be fully exposed to the Internet.
This function is used when special application sensing tunnel feature is
insufficient to allow an application to function correctly. Use with
caution.

2.3 Installation
The unit can be placed on a desktop or a shelf. Alternatively, it may be wallmounted.
For optimal performance, place the Networking Gateway in the center of
your office (or your home), in a location that is away from any potential
source of interference, such as a metal wall or microwave oven. This
location must be close to a mains outlet and network connections.
To install the Networking Gateway IDU:
1 Assemble an RJ-45 connector with a protective cover on the indoor end
of the IDU-ODU cable. The length of the IDU-ODU cable should not
exceed 100m. Refer to the relevant System Manual for instructions on
preparing the cable and for information on the cable type.
2 Connect the IDU-ODU cable to the ODU connector located on the rear
panel.
3 Connect the power cord of the transformer to the unit’s POWER socket,
located on the rear panel. Connect the Mains power cord to the power
transformer and to the AC mains.
NOTE
The color codes of the power cable are as follows:
Brown Phase ~
Blue Neutral 0
Yellow/Green Ground
4 When power is connected, the unit will automatically enter the self-test
phase. When it is in the self-test phase, the STATUS LED will be lit ON
for about 10 seconds, and will then blink 3 times, indicating that the
self-test operation has ended. Finally, the STATUS LED will blink
continuously one blink per second, indicating that the unit is
functioning properly.
5 Connect a PC to one of the LAN ports using an Ethernet cable and
configure the basic parameters of the SU-ODU. Align the antenna of the
ODU. For more information refer to the applicable sections of the
relevant System Manual.
14
6 Use a web browser to configure the parameters of the Networking
Gateway IDU. For details refer to Chapter 3.
Installation
Page 29
Installation
7 If a printer is to be used, connect it to the USB port using a standard
USB cable. To configure the Print Server on your computer(s), refer to
Appendix A - Print Server.
8 Configure the network settings of the computers for proper operation
with the Networking Gateway. The default IP address of the Networking
Gateway LAN is 192.168.254.253, and the default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
9 To verify data connectivity, from the end-user’s PC or from a portable
PC connected to the unit, try to connect to the Internet.
10 Verify proper operation using the LED indicators (see Table 6).
