IMPORTANT NOTE:

Intentional or unintentional changes or modifications must not be made

unless under the express consent of the party responsible for

compliance. Any such modifications could void the user’s authority to

operate the equipment and will void the manufacturer’s warranty.

To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, the following antenna

installation and device operating configurations must be satisfied. The

antenna for this unit must be fixed and mounted on outdoor permanent

structures with a separation distance of at least two meters from all

persons. Furthermore, it must not be co-located or operating in

conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

System Description:

The M5800SB-AP-60 is a part of the SunStream5800 Broadband Access Solution.

Specifically, the M5800SB-AP-60 is a broadband wireless Internet access point

designed for sending and receiving Ethernet-based data traffic in a point to multi-

point configuration and presents an alternative to conventional wiring which may

be impractical and/or too slow.

An Access Point can manage up to five hundred Subscriber Units per sector. A

sector is defined a 60 degree coverage area that an Access Point’s integrated

antenna “sees”. The system utilizes robust spread-spectrum technology to reduce

susceptibility to interference.

The typical Access Point installation consists of one or more M5800SB-AP-60 radios

that are mounted outdoors and one or more Junction Boxes that are mounted

indoors. Each Junction Box provides power to the radio by injecting the power onto

the unused pairs of an Ethernet cable.

The Access Point is aligned towards the service area. The coverage area will

depend on the unit mounting height and down tilt, but in general it is a 10-degree

(elevation) by 60-degree (azimuth) projection perpendicular from the unit’s radome

onto the service area.

Items you will need to supply:

Certain items are not included with the Access Point Kit and you will need to

provide these items for a successful installation. These items are listed below:

One (1) length of straight through CAT5 cable, not to exceed 50 meters, to connect

the Subscriber Unit Radio to the Junction Box. This cable will carry Ethernet traffic

and power.
