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. Line of Sight Side View 04 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.

Connection and Installation Please connect and install the device as shown in the figure below. The following introduction takes CPE520 as an example. LAN0 PoE LAN Ethernet cable length up to 60m 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). Connect to a computer, router or switch.

(Depending on your intended usage and/or network topology.) Slide to replace the cover of the CPE when all connections are finished. At the selected site, approximately align the CPE to the direction that you have oriented. 06 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 1 ), you can effectively 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 2 ). The following introduction takes CPE520 as an example. Two Methods:

A wireless bridge is built between two locations that are far from each other. Follow the instructions below to configure the Access Point and the Client. Computer IP camera Access Point LAN: 192.168.0.254 Client LAN: 192.168.0.2 Log in to PharOS and go to the Quick Setup page. Configure the Access Point (AP) 1. 2. Operation Mode: Select Access Point and click Next. 3. 4. Wireless AP Settings:

LAN Settings: Click Next. a. Create a new SSID (Network name) for your wireless network. b. Select WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK for the Security method and create a PSK Password to protect your AP. c. Enter the distance between the Access Point and the Client into the Distance Setting field. d. Select the MAXtream checkbox (Refer to Q3 in FAQ for details about MAXtream), and click Next. 5. Finish: Verify your settings and click Finish to complete the configuration. Log in to PharOS and go to the Quick Setup page. Configure the Client 1. 2. Operation Mode: Select Client and click Next. 11 3. LAN Settings: Change the IP Address to 192.168.0.X (X ranges between 2 and 253), the same subnet with the access point, and click Next. 4. Wireless Client Settings:

then click Connect. a. Click Survey and select the SSID of the Access Point in the AP list, b. Select WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK from the Security option, enter the same PSK password and distance value of the Access Point, then click Next. 5. Finish: Verify your settings and click Finish to complete the configuration. 12 Antenna Alignment In order to get the best performance, you can precisely align the direction of the CPE with the assistance of Wireless Signal Quality on STATUS page of the PharOS Web Interface. Adjust the direction of the CPE until the device reaches the highest SNR.

Remote Reset Button Press & hold for about 8 seconds 15 Q2. How to calculate the minimum mounting height of the devices?

In order to maximize the received signal strength of the devices, installers need to minimize the effect of the out-of-phase signals, which is caused by obstacles in the path between the transmitter and the receiver. Fresnel Zone is a usual method to calculate this path, as shown in the formula and the figure below. d2 d1 r h = the height of obstacle at this point H h+r*(1 40%)

(H is the height of the CPE) r

=

d d 1 1

+

d d 2 2 c f where, r = Fresnel zone radius in meters c = 3x108 m/s, speed of light f = operating frequency of the devices in Hz d1 & d2 = the distances between the point and the devices in meters For example, assume d1 is 2km, d2 is 8km, and f is 2.4GHz, then r would be 14.142m. Considering a toleration of 40%, allowable radius would be 8.485m. Assume h is 10m, then the result of the minimum mounting height based on this point would be 18.485m. Similarly, calculate the results based on all the points where there are obstacles, and the maximum value would be the final result. For more information, please refer to:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_zone 16 Q3. What is Pharos MAXtream?

Pharos MAXtream is a proprietary protocol developed on the basis of Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) by TP-Link. The MAXtream technology has the following advantages:

Eliminates hidden node collisions & improves channel efficiency. Lower latency, higher throughput, larger network capacity &

more stability. Improves the QoS for video, voice and sound data stream. By dividing the timing of transmission into different time slots, MAXtream allows the Pharos devices to transmit in rapid succession, one after another, each using its own time slot to transmit and receive their own frames, which greatly reduces the chance of collision. Pharos MAXtream is a non-standard Wi-Fi protocol that is only compatible with TP-Links Pharos series products. Please notice that you will not be able to connect other Wi-Fi devices to an AP with MAXtream enabled. Q4. How can I use Spectrum Analysis to find the appropriate channel for the devices?

1. Log in to PharOS, click Spectrum Analysis in the tools drop-down list, a window will pop up to remind you that all wireless connections will be lost during spectrum analysis. Click Yes to continue to the Spectrum Analysis page. 2. Click Start, the PharOS will begin to analyze the power of frequency. Observe the curves for a period of time, and then click Stop. Note that the relatively low and continuous part of the 17 average curve indicates less radio noise. Here, we use the figure below as an example. The select box of Frequency Range at the top-left corner is only available for CPE510 and CPE520. Select the desired range and then click Start. When choosing channel/frequency, you should avoid the spectrum with large radio noise. In this example, the recommended channel/

frequency is 112/5560MHz. 18 to part 15 of FCC STATEMENT This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant the FCC Rules.
