COMPLIANCES
FEDERAL COMMUNICATION COMMISSION INTERFERENCE STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Ru les. These limits
are designed to provide reaso nable protection again st harmful interfer ence
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio fre quency energy and, if not in stalled and u sed in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will no t
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determine d by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one of the following measures:
◆ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
◆ Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
◆ Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit differ ent from that to
which the receiver is connected
◆ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) T his device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC Cautio n: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate
this equipment.
For product av ailable in the USA/Canada mark et, only channel 1~11 can be
operated. Selection of other chan nels is not possible.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operation in
conjunction with any other antenna or tr ansmitter.
This device is going to be oper ated in 5. 15~5.25GH z frequ ency r ange, it is
restricted in ind o or envi ro nment only.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC RADIATION EXPOSURE STATEMENT
This equipment complies with FCC r adiation exposu re limits set for th for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and
operated with minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator & your body.
IC STATEMENT :
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Operation is subject to the following two conditio ns: (1) this device may
not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any inte rference,
including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B conforme á la norme NMB-003 du
Canada.
To reduce potential radio interference to o ther user s, the ant enna type and
its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated
power (e.i.r.p) is not more than that permitted for successful
communication.
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below,
and having a maximum gain of [
having a gain greater than [
device. The required antenna impedance i s 50 ohms .
The device could automatical ly discontinue tr ansmis sion in case of absence
of information to transmit, or operational failure. Note that this is not
intended to prohibit tr ansmission of control or signaling information or the
use of repetitive codes where required by the technology.
The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce
potential for harmful interference to co-c hannel mobile satellite systems.
The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the band 5725-5825
MHz) to comply with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for point-to-point and non
point-to-point operation as appropriate, as stated in section A9.2(3).
IMPORTANT NOTE:
IC Radiatio n Ex posure Sta te m ent:
This equipment complies with IC RSS-102 radiatio n exposure limits set
forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed

1 INTRODUCTION
The EliteConnect
meets draft 2.0 standards. It is fully interoperable with olde r 802.11a/b/g
standards, providing a transparent, wireless high speed data
communication between the wired LAN and fixed or mobile devices. The
unit includes three detachable dual-band 2.4/5 GHz antennas with the
option to attach higher specification external ante nnas that boost network
coverage.
KEY HARDWARE FEATURES
The following table describes the main hardware features of the AP.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPABILITIES
The SMC21011 supports up to eight Virtual Access Point (VAP) interfaces,
which allow traffic to be separated for different user groups within the
same AP service area. Each VAP can support up to 64 wireless clients,
whereby the clients associate with each VAP in the same way as they would
with physically separate access points. This means that each VAP can be
configured with its own Service Set Id entification (S SID), security se ttings,
VLAN assignments, and other parameters, allowing the AP to serve a
diverse range of client needs in an area from a single unit.

PACKAGE CONTENTS
In addition, the access point offers full network management capabilities
through an easy to configure web interf ace, a command line interface for
initial configuration and troubles hooting, and support for Simple Network
Management tools.
The SMCE21011 utilises MIMO technology and Spatial Multiplexing to
achieve the highest possible data rate and throughput on the 802.11n
frequency. The unit’s PoE RJ-45 port provides a 1 Gb ps full-duplex l ink to a
wired LAN.

and multiple-output) antennas. MIMO uses multiple antennas for
transmitting and receiving radio signals to improve data throughput and
link range.
Each antenna transmits the outgoing signal as a toroidal sphere (doughnut
shaped), with the cover a ge extending most in a direction perpendicular to
the antenna. Therefore, the antennas should be adjusted to an angle that
provides the appropriate coverage for the service area.
The access point supports external antenn as for improving the cove r age of
the 802.11n signal. The antennas supplied with the unit screw off in a
clockwise manner and can be replaced with with alternative antennas that
