1 - INTRODUCTION The Luxul Wireless Shock-WAV Wi-Fi Signal Booster is designed to complement and enhance the performance of the Motorola AP-5131 Wireless Access Point (WAP). When combined with the AP-5131 and approved antenna, it delivers up to the maximum allowed transmit power (EIRP of 36dBm), resulting in a farther reaching and higher performing network.
SHOCK-WAV SIGNAL BOOSTER USER GUIDE • Do not work with power circuits in dimly lit spaces. • Do not install this equipment or work with its power circuits during thunderstorms or other weather conditions that could cause a power surge. • Verify there is adequate ventilation around the device, and that ambient temperatures meet equipment operation specifications. • Products outside the approved configurations may be in violation of Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 1.
The output power of the amplifier is set and tested during manufacturing. There are no user modifiable parameters in the amplifier. The Luxul Shock-Wav Wi-Fi Signal Booster incorporates a Digital AGC (D-AGC) that ensures a consistent and approved output power. Please reference section 4 for installation instructions.

Connect the other end to the LAN port on the back of your Motorola AP-5131, (Figure 4) 3. Connect your Data/POE source Ethernet cable to the “12-48V POE IN” port of the Signal Booster, (Figure 4) 2. Connect the power cable to the Motorola AP-PSBIAS-1P2-AFR POE injector.
Connect your Data source Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the back of your Motorola AP5131, (Figure 5) 2. Connect the 48V AC-DC power supply to the Signal Booster (Figure 5) 1. Plug the Signal Booster power supply into your 100-240V compatible power source. (Consult your Motorola Documentation for more information on the AP-5131 WAP and the AP-PSBIAS-1P2-AFR POE). 4.
SHOCK-WAV SIGNAL BOOSTER USER GUIDE 5.1 Antenna Deployment Be sure you place the antenna so there is a minimum of 2 feet (.6 meters) of open space around it. Refer to Figure 6 for examples of antenna deployment. a b c d Figure 6 Pattern shape and size is not to scale, for refrence only Figure 6c and d show the loss of the signal coverage due to bad antenna placement. This problem can be addressed by installing an approved Luxul Wireless X-WAV directional antenna. See section 3.
Figure 7 Pattern shape and size is not to scale, for refrence only 6 - REGULATORY COMPLIANCE This device is approved under the Luxul Wireless brand and designed to comply for use specifically with the Motorola AP-5131.
