Federal Communication Commission Interference St atement
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 Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. 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 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 different 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) 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: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated
with minimum distance 100cm between the radiator & your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
The availability of some specific channels and/or operational frequency bands are country
dependent and are firmware programmed at the factory to match the intended destination. The
firmware setting is not accessible by the end user.
Professional Installation Required

Chapter 1 Introduction
Introduction
The ZC-3625-55-23 Wireless Bridge is a high-performance outdoor-deployable wireless
bridge that provides wireless connectivity among multiple network locations. Besides the
built-in 23dBi plane antennas, it can cover over 50km if with an external antenna co-used,
answering the demand of long distance backhaul with high throughput. Moreover, link
aggregation combines multiple links into one to enhance transmission rate; and network
backup ensures continuous transmission.
As a multi-function bridge, ZC-3625-55-23 supports Base Station, CPE and PTP modes;
among which, LANs in different locations and buildings could easily be connected and access
to broadband under PTP mode, realizing “Last Mile” Broadband.
With the high throughput and long-distance transmission, ZC-3625-55-23 is the ideal backhaul
solution for Carriers, Service Providers and Enterprises!
