1.4System Requirements

Installation of the Outdoor Wireless Client Bridge requires the following:

1.A Windows-based PC/AT compatible computer or Ethernet data device with an available RJ-45 Ethernet port to run the configuration program or with TCP/IP connection to the Ethernet network.

2.A 10/100Base-T Ethernet RJ-45 Ethernet cable is connected to Ethernet network.

3.A RS-232 consol port cable is connected to PC/AT compatible computer.

4.An AC power outlet (100~240V, 50~60Hz) supplies the power.

1.5Inline Power Injector (PoE)

The Wireless client bridge is equipped with an Inline Power Injector module. The Inline Power Injector (PoE) delivers both data and power to Wireless client bridge unit via a signal Ethernet cable, and gives the following benefits to improve the performance vs. installation cost ratio.

1.This works great in areas where you may not have power and/or Ethernet easily accessible, like house roof.

2.This also allows you to place the Wireless client bridge unit closer to the antenna, more easily thus reducing signal loss over antenna cabling.

3.Ethernet signal travels well over CAT 5 cable but 2.4GHz signal doesn't do as well over antenna cabling.

4.Ethernet cabling is much cheaper than Antenna cabling.
