User Manual & AN-80i Chapter 2 2 System Overview The Access Node 80i system is manufactured by Redline Communications -- a world leader in design and production of Broadband Fixed Wireless (BFW) systems. Figure 1: Intro - AN-80i Components The AN-80i is a high-performance, high-speed wireless Ethernet bridge for use in a commercial, industrial, business, or government environment. The system can operate with a 3.3 - 3.8 GHz, 4.9 - 5.3 GHz, 5.4 GHz, or 5.
PAGE 16
User Manual & AN-80i Figure 2: Intro - AN-80i with 1 Foot Square Antenna 2.1 Ethernet Port The AN-80i receives DC power and exchanges data with the indoor network through the Ethernet port. The AN-80i Ethernet port connects to the PoE Adapter using a weatherproof CAT-5e Ethernet cable. The Ethernet port is a female RJ-45 connector. The maximum total length of the Ethernet cable is 100 m (328 ft). For example, 98 m from the AN-80i to the PoE and 2 m from the PoE to the network equipment. 2.

PAGE 51
User Manual & AN-80i 4.4 Functional Description 4.4.1 Overview The AN-80i can operate as a standard wireless bridge (pass-through mode), as a VLANaware wireless switch, or a combination of both. The following diagram illustrates a network implementation using two VLAN groups and a pass through group. The packets tagged with VID=107 are classified as data traffic, and the packets tagged with VID=108 are classified as voice (VoIP) traffic.
PAGE 52
User Manual & AN-80i 4.4.3 Packet Classification The AN-80i PMP deployment can be configured for use with VLAN tagged traffic, untagged traffic, or a combination these two types. Ingress packets received on the Ethernet port are classified according to the criteria in the following tables. Note that specific cases are applied for packets with known addresses and unicast packets, etc. Refer to the Group and Connection definitions later in this section.
