Hardware Connection
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 the front facing the intended signal
receiving devices. You can orient the devices with the assistance of
Google Maps, GPS and some landmarks according to the horizontal
beamwidth listed below.

POE
You should prepare an adequate
Ethernet cable to connect the CPE
and the passive PoE adapter.
Shielded CAT5e (or above) cable
with ground wire is recommended
(refer to the next section).
LAN
Connect to a computer,
router or switch.
(Depending on your
intended usage and/or
network topology.)
At the selected site,
approximately align the
CPE to the direction that
you have oriented.
3. Lightning & ESD Protection
Proper grounding is extremely important for outdoor devices.
By using shielded CAT5e (or above) cable with ground wire for the
connection and the provided PoE adapter (method ), you can
e ectively eliminate ESD attacks. If you use the general CAT5e cable for
the connection, then it is necessary to connect the grounding terminal
of the CPE to earth ground through grounding cable (method ).
