Federal Communication Commission Interference Statemen t
This equipment has be en tested and found to com ply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radi ate radio f requenc y energ y and, if not ins talled and used in ac cordanc e
with the instructions , may cause harm ful interference to radio comm unications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is enc ouraged to try to correct th e interference by one or mor e of the following
measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipm ent into an outlet on a circuit differ ent from that to which the recei ver is
connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio technician for help.
FCC Caution
To assure continued compliance, use only shielded interface cables when connecting to computer or
peripheral devices. An y changes or modifications not expressl y approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
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
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.

Product Description 1.2
Flexible and Reliable Outdoor Characteristics
With the standard IEEE 802.3af/at Power over Ethernet (PoE) design, the WBS-202N and WBS-502N (outdoor
wireless CPE) can be easily installed in the areas wh ere power outlets ar e not availa ble. The outdoor wireless
CPE is definitely suitable f or wireless IP surveillance, and bridg e link of building to building and b ackbone of
public service. Addition ally, the self-healing capab ility keeps connec tion alive all the tim e. With the IP55-rated
outdoor enclosure, the o utd oor w irel ess CPE can perform normally under rigorous weather conditions, meaning
it can be installed in any harsh, outdoor environments
Designed for Various Requirements
The outdoor wireless CPE is specially des igned for long-distance outd oor surveillance and wire less backhaul
solutions that are c apable of establishing s table bridg e connection through the e mbedded ante nna. To provide
maximum performance, the outdo or wir e less CP E can implement up to 8 operation modes where a multitude of
applications in communities, warehouses, campuses, harbors, etc. can be made.

Multiple SSIDs with VLAN Tagging
The outdoor wire les s CP E supports WPA/WPA2, an d t he 802. 1X R ADI U S auth ent ic ati on to sec ure the wireless
connection. Besides, the supported IEEE 802.1Q VLAN allows mult iple VLAN tags to be mapped to multiple
SSIDs to distinguish t he wireless access. This makes it possible for the outdoor wireless CPE to work with
managed Ethernet switches to have VLANs assigned to a different access level and authority.
3 Simple Steps to Set Up WDS
Without needing to enter the Web interface for configuration, the outdoor wireless CPE needs three simple steps
to establish the WDS PtP connection without any difficulty . By just clicking the Pair button on the WBS-202N and
within 2 minutes, you can connect two WBS-202Ns without complicated configuration.

Optimized Efficiency in AP Management
The brand-new GUI conf ig ur atio n wizar d he lps the system administrator easily set up the outdo or w ire les s C PE
step by step. Besides, the built-in Wi-Fi analyzer provides real-time channel utilization to prevent channel
overlapping to assure greater performance. With the automatic transmission power mechanism, distance control
and scheduling reboot sett ing, the outdoor wireles s CPE is easier for the administrator to deploy and manage
without on-site maintenance. Moreover, you can simply use PLANET AP controller and SAPC (Smart AP
Control), to deliver wireless profiles to multiple APs simultaneously, thus making the central management
simple.

A computer with wired Ethernet connection to the Wireless CPE is required for the first-time
configuration.
Manual Network Setup -- TCP/IP Configuration 4.1
The default IP address of the WBS-202N/WBS-502N is 192.168.1.253. And the default Subnet Mask is
255.255.255.0. These values can be changed as you want. In this guide, we use all the default values for
description.
Connect the WBS-202N/WBS-502N with your PC by a n Eth ernet c a bl e pl ug gin g i n LAN port on one side and in
LAN port of PC on the othe r side. Please p ower on t he WBS-202N/WBS-502N by PoE switch through the PoE
port.
In the following sections, we’l l introduce how to i nstall and conf igure the T CP/IP correctly in Windows 10. And
the procedures in other oper ating systems are sim ilar. First, make sure your Ethernet A dapter is working, and
refer to the Ethernet adapter manual if needed.
4.1.1 Configuring the IP Address Manually
Summary:
Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC.
Configure the network parameters . The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx (If the d efault IP address of the
WBS-202N/WBS-502N is 192.168.1.253, and the DSL router is 192.168.1.254, the "xxx" can be
configured to any number from 1 to 252.) and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
1 Select Use the following IP address, and then configure the IP address of the PC.
2 For example, as the default IP address of the WBS-202N/WBS-502N is 1 92.168. 1.253 and the DSL router
is 192.168.1.254, you may choose from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.252.
