Introduction

CAREFULLY READ THE ENTIRE

MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING

An InfraRed (IR) link allows connection without any cable between two distant sites. For that, two identical transceivers, each installed on one site and aligned to face each other, provide point-to-point connectivity. This configuration makes possible data transfer from one terminal to the other

through the air over an optical wavelength carrier, the IR link – see picture in Figure B, below.

Figure B: IR Link

The installation of such a link can be summarized as 4 stages:

♦Site survey

♦Installation of the infrastructure

♦Mounting of the equipment

♦Aiming (alignment) procedure

!Always use appropriate safety equipment and procedures when working with electrical equipment and when working on roofs.
