1. Site Consideration
• Mounting Height
Ensure a clear line of sight between the wireless devices for an
optimum performance. An elevated location is recommended as
obstacles like trees, buildings and large steel structures will weaken the
wireless signal.
See Q2 in FAQ for details about how to calculate the minimum
mounting height of the devices.

• Orientation
Install the CPE devices with their fronts facing the signal receivers. You
can orient the devices with the assistance of Google Map, GPS and
some landmarks according to the horizontal beamwidth listed below.

2. Ethernet Cable Preparation
1. Select the adequate type of Ethernet cable.
The shielded CAT5e cable with ground wire (refer to the figure below)
is prior to the general shielded CAT5e cable during the whole cabling.
The former can more effectively protect your devices against ESD
attacks under brutal outdoor environment.

2. Review the routes of connecting the POE Adapter to the CPE and
evaluate the Ethernet cable length for all the connections, then
prepare adequate Ethernet cable.
