About this Guide.................................................................................................... iii
The EasyWiFi extension module allows you to add extra functionality to your
EasyST unit:
WiFi capabilities based on 802.11b and 802.11g
Four Ethernet LAN switches (10/100BaseT)
DC power
The EasyST is easily plugged onto the EasyWiFi extension module by means of a
30-pin IDC connector.
The EasyWiFi is powered by an AC/DC adapter that is plugged directly into a
standard electrical wall outlet (110/220 VAC). In addition, the adapter's plug prongs
can be easily removed, and then replaced to suite electrical sockets of the country in
which the unit is being installed.

Attaching EasyST
The EasyWiFi interfaces with the EasyST by means of a 30-pin connector, located
on the EasyWiFi's top panel.
For securing the connection of the EasyST to the EasyWiFi, the EasyWiFi provides
two latches that locks and unlocks the EasyST from the EasyWiFi. The latches are
located on the EasyWiFi's bottom and side panels.
Figure 3-1: EasyST attached to EasyWiFi
18120511-01 Airspan Networks Inc. 1
EasyWiFi Attaching EasyST
To attach the EasyST to the EasyWiFi:
1. Align the EasyST with the EasyWiFi by aligning the following:
EasyST 30-pin female connector with EasyWiFi's 30-pin male
connector
EasyST RJ-45 port with EasyWiFi RJ-45 port labeled lan2
2. Press the EasyST firmly onto the EasyWiFi so that the 30-pin connectors
contact and plug into one another.
Figure 3-2: Aligning EasyST with EasyWiFi

EasyWiFi Attaching EasyST
3. Lock the EasyST to the EasyWiFi using the two latches:
a. On the bottom panel, use your thumb to push the latch towards the
locking direction (indicated by the "lock" label).
b. On the bottom-side panel, use a tool with a pointed edge to move the
latch into the EasyST's mounting bracket by inserting the pointed
egde into the latch's hole, and then dragging the latch into the
EasyST's mounting bracket until it is firmly in place.

EasyWiFi provides four 8-pin RJ-45 ports for 10/100BaseT (Fast Ethernet) interface
with the subscriber's network. These LAN ports are located on the back panel and
labeled lan1, lan2, lan3, and lan4. The LAN ports support Half and Full duplexing
mode, Auto-Negotiation, and Auto-MDIX.
The EasyWiFi-to-computer cable setup is listed below:
Cable: straight-through CAT 5 STP Ethernet cable
Connector: 8-pin RJ-45 at both ends
Connector pinouts:

To connect EasyWiFi LAN ports to the subscriber's Ethernet network:
1. Plug the Category 5 Ethernet cable into the desired EasyWiFi 8-pin RJ-45
port.
2. Plug the other end of the Category 5 Ethernet cable into your computer's
LAN port located at the back of your computer.

Mounting
Warning: The EasyWiFi is an indoor unit and therefore, must be mounted
indoors.
Warning: To prevent a fire hazard caused by overheating, do not place the
EasyWiFi on a carpeted surface where airflow is restricted.
EasyWiFi is a self-installable indoor unit, requiring no professional installation by a
technician.
EasyWiFi must be mounted indoors in a location that provides the following:
High quality RF reception with the Internet service provider (i.e. base
station)
Accessibility to subscriber's power supply and LAN network with regards to
cable lengths
Strong radio signal strength for the WiFi communication link between
EasyWiFi and the subscriber's WiFi computer
EasyWiFi can be mounted in the following ways, depending on the EasyST's
antenna configuration:
EasyST with clip-on antenna: mounted horizontally on a desktop
EasyST with window-mount external antenna:
Mounted horizontally on a desktop
Mounted vertically on a wall
18120511-01 Airspan Networks Inc. 1
EasyWiFi Mounting
5.1. Desktop Mounting
The EasyWiFi offers quick-and-easy mounting by allowing you to simply place it
horizontally on a desktop (as shown in the figure below). The EasyWiFi contains
integrated rubber feet (pads) on its bottom panel, providing cushioning as well as
insulation from static electricity.
Figure 5-1: Desktop mounting EasyWiFi
18120511-01 Airspan Networks Inc. 5-2
EasyWiFi Mounting
5.2. Wall Mounting
When EasyST implements the window-mount, external antenna (i.e. no clip-on
antenna), the EasyWiFi can be mounted either on a desk (i.e. desktop mounting) or a
wall.
The figure below shows a wall-mounted EasyWiFi. The EasyST is connected to an
RF cable that connects to the external antenna (i.e. clip-on antenna is removed). For
mounting to a wall, the EasyWiFi provides two mounting hooks molded into its
bottom panel, as shown below:
Figure 5-2: Wall-mounted EasyWiFi
Note: The EasyWiFi's WiFi antenna must be fully extended (i.e. 180 degrees)
when wall mounted.
18120511-01 Airspan Networks Inc. 5-3
EasyWiFi Mounting
To wall mount the EasyWiFi:
1. On the wall, mark the position with a pencil where you want to drill the two
holes for the screws onto which the two EasyWiFi mounting hooks will later
by guided. The distance between the two wall-mounting hooks (from their
centers) is approxiamtely 83 mm (3.27 inches). Ensure that the holes are
aligned and level using a spirit level.
2. Drill holes for each hole that you marked in the step above using a no. 6
twist-drill bit.
3. Tap the 6-mm wall anchors (supplied) into each of the drilled holes.
18120511-01 Airspan Networks Inc. 5-4
EasyWiFi Mounting
4. Drive the two 0.75-inch screws (supplied) into the wall anchors. Ensure that
at least 0.08-inch gap is exposed between the screw head and the wall anchor
to allow insertion into the EasyWiFi mounting hooks.
5. Align the screws with the entrance to the two EasyWiFi mounting hooks, and
then pull down the EasyWiFi to lock the screws into the mounting hooks.

Connecting Power
EasyWiFi is powered by an AC/DC power supply adapter, supplying 6 VDC and 4
Amperes. The AC/DC adapter is plugged into a standard electrical wall outlet
(110/240 VAC; 50/60 Hz).
The power adapter also provides interchangeable prongs (e.g. American vs.
European) that can be replaced to suit country electrical standards in which the
EasyWiFi is being installed. To view the AC/DC power adapter specifications, see
Appendix C, "Power Adapter Specifications".
Note: Any AC/DC power adapter complying with Class 2 and LPS, and safety
approved according to national regulations, and that provides rated input of
100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.4 A and output of 6 V, 4 A DC, may be used fo
powering the EasyWiFi.
18120511-01 Airspan Networks Inc. 1
EasyWiFi Connecting Power
6.1. Changing the AC/DC Power Adapter's
Prongs
The AC/DC power adapter provides interchangeable prongs to suit electrical wall
outlet sockets in the country in which the EasyWiFi is being installed.
To change the plug prongs:
1. Remove the prongs by first moving (with the help of a pen) the
LOCK/OPEN switch to OPEN position, and then gently sliding the prongs
upwards, away from the power cord.
2. Align the desired prongs with the adapter's prong groove, and then slide the
prongs onto the adapter in the orientation as shown in the Figure 6-1. Ensure
that the prongs reach the end of the prong groove.
Figure 6-1: Replacing AC/DC power adapter plug prongs
3. Secure the prong in place by moving (with the help of a pen) the
LOCK/OPEN switch to LOCK position.

EasyWiFi Connecting Power
6.2. Connecting AC/DC Power Adapter
Once you have attached the plug prongs suitable to your country's electrical wall
socket, you are ready to connect the EasyWiFi to the electrical wall outlet.
To connect the EasyWiFi to the power supply:
1. Before plugging the power cord into the electrical wall outlet, plug the
AC/DC power adapter's power cable (i.e. DC power jack) into the
EasyWiFi's DC power socket (labeled power).
2. Plug the prongs of the AC/DC power adapter into the electrical wall outlet.

Resetting EasyWiFi
The EasyWiFi provides a button that enables you to reboot the EasyWiFi as well as
reset the EasyWiFi settings to default. This button is located on the EasyWiFi's back
panel and labeled reset.
To reboot or reset to default the EasyWiFi:
1. Using a tool with a pointed edge, insert the edge into the hole labeled reset
(located on the back panel next to the DC power jack).
