1 Introduction
Modern tendencies of telecommunication development necessitate operators to search for the most optimal
technologies, allowing you to satisfy drastically growing needs of subscribers, maintaining at the same time
consistency of business processes, development flexibility and reduction of costs of various services provision.
Wireless technologies are spinning up more and more and have paced a huge way for a short time from unstable
low-speed communication networks of low radius to broadband networks equitable to speed of wired networks
with high criteria for the quality of provided services.
WB-2P-LR5 is a user station designed for connection to Wi-Fi access network which might be constructed using
base stations within long distances.The case of WB-2P-LR5 is sealed, that is allows to install the device outdoor
with different climate conditions.
This manual specifies intended purpose, main technical parameters, design, installation procedure, safe operation
rules and installation recommendations forWB-2P-LR5.

2 Device description
2.1 Purpose
User station WB-2P-LR5 (herein after «the device») is designed for access provision to secure wireless network.
The device provides access to up-to-date interactive services: Internet, IPTV, VoIP. WB-2P-LR5 connects to a base
station via Wi-Fi technology and operates at 5 and 6 GHz (the frequency range – 5830–6150 MHz – is supported
on WB-2P-LR5 rev.B). The device is supposed to operate with WOP-2ac-LR5. WB-2P-LR5 might be also used for
wireless bridge organization. WB-2P-LR5 supports up-to-date requirements to service quality and allows
transmitting more important traffic in higher priorities queues. Prioritization is based on QoS technologies: CoS
(special tags in VLAN packet field) and ToS (tags in IP packet field).
The device is capable to operate in wide temperature range and in high-humidity conditions (parks, factories,
stadiums, etc.).
Power to the device is supplied via PoE technology 24V.
