User Guide 1 Overview

1.1 Product Introduction

HUAWEI eA660 is a piece of customer premises equipment (CPE) that functions as the long term evolution (LTE) wireless gateway. It implements the conversion between LTE wireless data and wired Ethernet data and supports data backhaul. The eA660 series can be used independently and deployed outdoors.

The eA660 supports the LTE R8 standards and provides the following services:



Data services

The eA660 series uses LTE broadband technologies to support high-speed broadband network access, data backhaul, and video surveillance.



Small-scale local area network (LAN)

The eA660 series can connect to external concentrators and Ethernet switches or routers to set up a LAN with multiple computers. When terminal devices on the LAN connect to the eA660 using network cables, the terminal devices can provide data services.



Security services

The eA660 series supports the firewall and PIN password, which protects your computers when you access the Internet.



Firewall services

The eA660 series supports the following firewall services:

−

Firewall enabling or disabling: enables or disables firewalls.

−

Media access control (MAC) address filtering: prevents certain MAC addresses from accessing the computers on a LAN.

−

IP address filtering: blocks certain IP addresses from accessing the local computers.

−

URL filtering: prevents computers from accessing certain URLs.



Local and remote management and maintenance

The eA660 series can be locally configured in the local city to implement device management and network configuration, thereby ensuring stable operation of the device.

 This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the

following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

 FCC Caution To assure continued compliance, any changes or modifications not

expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

 FCC Radiation Exposure Statement To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements in

section 1.1307, a minimum separation distance of 20cm is required between the antenna and all public persons.

1.2 Application Scenarios

The eA660 provides wireless broadband and wired Ethernet data services.

The eA660 is deployed outdoors and provides wireless gateway services. The eA660 can be deployed independently or used in conjunction with the eA100, which is deployed indoors and connected to the eA660 using a network cable, enabling the eA660 to provide Wi-Fi and other Internet services.

For details about the eA100, see the eLTE2.1 eA100 Series CPE Product Description.
