1.0 Introduction
The NetWave® industrially hardened wireless Ethernet transmission link from ComNet™ can
be configured through the embedded User Interface as a Client or as an Access Point. This
point-to-multipoint model allows multiple Ethernet endpoints to be connected to a central
Access Point. Up to 15 endpoints can be linked to a central access point. The NW1 and NW2
support up to 95Mbps throughput using MIMO technology. An easy to read LED array displays
unit operational status along with received signal strength ensuring optimal installation and
operation. The units can be powered by an IEEE 802.3af PoE compliant switch or through the
supplied power injection module. The NW1 is FCC certified and the NW2 is ETSI, DFS and TPC
certified.
This manual contains detailed information covering ComNet NetWave outdoor 802.11n wireless
products. NetWave was designed for use in a wide ambient operating temperature range.
NetWave provides a cost effective 802.11-based solution. The units come configured for either
point to point or point to multipoint applications.
This manual contains detailed operational and configuration information not covered in the
quick start guides.
This guide applies to the following models:
NW1 – Industrial Multipoint, FCC Version, User Configurable
NW2– Industrial Multipoint, ETSI Version, User Configurable
NWK1 – Industrial Point to Point Kit, FCC Version (Includes NWK1_AP and NWK1_CL)
NWK2 – Industrial Point to Point Kit, ETSI Version (Includes NWK2_AP and NWK2_CL)

2.0 Point to Multi-Point – NW1 and NW2
These individual units allow the user to configure for either multipoint access point or client
operation. There is a MAC address lock feature that can be enabled through the user interface
but is not enabled by default. The NWx supports integrated directional and external omni
directional antennas. See the ComNet website for the latest information regarding antenna
support.

3.0 Point to Point Systems – NWK1 and NW2
Each point to point kit comes with a preconfigured access point and client. Both units will
not only be configured to operate on the same SSID but also MAC addressed locked to each
other. This simplifies installations as well as enabling higher operating EIRP for FCC versions.
The NetWave preconfigured kit supports integrated directional and external omni directional
antennas. See the ComNet website for the latest information regarding antenna support.

4.0 Cabling Requirements
Shielded CAT 5 or better should be used for all out of plant Ethernet connection and should
be properly grounded through the PoE AC ground. Industrial grade shielded Ethernet cable is
recommended to help prevent ESD damage commonly experienced with outdoor installations.

5.0 Hardware Installation
5.1 NW1 and NW2 Outdoor Ethernet Gland Installation
There will be at least one cable gland included with each outdoor enclosure. Below is an image
of the individual parts of the gland with an Ethernet cable routed through.
Note: The split rubber washer allows a pre-terminated Ethernet cable to be used.
Once the cable has been routed through the weather connection as shown, push the split
rubber gasket into place and loosely screw the cap that goes over the rubber washer.
Below is an image with the Ethernet connection made to the node and the gland assembly
about to be installed.
Once the RJ45 connection has been made, screw in the gland into the housing making sure it is
tight enough for a water tight seal.

TECH SUPPORT: 1.888.678.9427
Once the gland is tight in the housing, tighten the outer nut/cap making sure the rubber seal
squeezes and seals the Ethernet cable to the gland as shown below.
Connect one end of an RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the LAN OUT port of the Power Injection
Module (PIM) and the other end to LAN of the access point – as sown below.
Note: Maximum length of the RJ-45 CAT5 cable is 90 meters.
Connect the RJ-45 Ethernet cable attached to the PIM to a network device, such as a switch or
to the configuration PC. Then plug the power adaptor to an AC power outlet and power plug
into the socket of the PIM – as shown in the diagram below.
Note: DC Passive PoE input for the NW1 and NW2 is 24 VDC.
