ARCXtend CPE
The CPE is small footprint weatherproof radome, as show in Figure 8 that can be easily mounted
on a rooftop or side of a building to provide connectivity to the wireless network. It contains an
integrated transceiver and a narrow-beam antenna that can be easily aligned to receive the
Wireless DOCSIS signal from a Network Hub. The CPE is roughly one foot square and supports
low cost installation using the same hardware and skills as a small satellite dish.
The CPE has a single, female-type F connector for both VDC power and RF signal. It is located on
the back of the unit as show in Figure 2-6.
