Dynamic range of Tx power in WipAir is 40 dB.
In Point-to-Multipoint mode, the Link Manager software will automatically reduce the
Tx power according to the antenna gain. For example:
• For integrated antenna of 23 dBi, the Max Tx power allowed by the Link
Manager is 13 dBm (10 dBm in WipAir 8000/6000) to meet the EIRP limitation
of 36 dBm.
• For integrated antenna of 28.5 dBi, the Max Tx power allowed by the Link
Manager is 7 dBm (4 dBm in WipAir 8000/6000) to meet the EIRP limitation of
36 dBm.

Power up the unit:
1. Plug the AC/DC Power Supply into a wall outlet or other standard AC power
source. This is only for use prior to permanent mounting, so any available wall
outlet in close proximity to your mounting location is suitable.
2. Connect the Outdoor-to-Indoor cable to the PoE Outlet ‘OUTDOOR’ port. (This
port supplies 48 VDC in addition to the Ethernet data).
3. Plug the DC plug from the AC/DC power supply to the DC jack marked
“48VDC”.
WipAir can be aligned using 2 methods:

1. Connect a CAT5 Ethernet cable from a PC to the PoE Outlet ‘10/100 B-T’ port.
Note: Do not attach standard CAT5 cable from the Outdoor Unit directly to
the PC. Connecting the PC directly to the Outdoor Unit may cause
damaged to the PC Ethernet NIC.
2. Start Link Manager application.
3. Press on the “Start Session” button (“S” symbol).
4. Select the unit from the popup address window.
5. Select “Installation” at the left menu tree.
6. Rotate the antenna until you get maximum RSSI with zero PER on the
installation window in the Link Manager.
Note: Do not stand in front of transmitting antenna. Rotate the antenna from
the rear side.
7. Mount and secure the unit by fastening the mounting screws.
