CB3000 Overview
The Symbol CB3000 Client Bridge (Part No. CB-3000-0010-WWR) is an IEEE 802.11a/b/g compliant
wireless LAN Ethernet adapter. The CB3000 operates in both 2.4GHz (GigaHertz) and 5.2GHz
frequencies. The CB3000 extends wireless networking capabilities to printers, scales, medical
equipment, manufacturing machinery, bar code readers, time clocks, point-of-sale and other data
collection devices. The CB3000 provides a reliable, cost-effective interface between devices utilizing
Ethernet port and wireless LAN switches and access points.
Multiple devices can share one CB3000 using a 10/100Base-T Ethernet hub. This feature saves
equipment costs when several devices require wireless Ethernet connectivity. The CB3000 has an
on-board TCP/IP stack to provide a reliable data transport mechanism. The CB3000 can support up to
16 client connections (or one POS device connection) to your server. Use the CB3000 to network
devices that do not have a PC Card slot or PCI card slot (printers, scanners, etc.) to support wireless
LAN cards.
Installing the CB3000
Before installing the CB3000, review the guidelines in the sections that follow:
• Prerequisite Requirements
• Verifying the Package Contents
• Verifying the Installation Site.
2
Prerequisite Requirements
The following hardware and software resources are required to install and operate a CB3000 and use
the CB3000 Discovery Tool:
• PC to be used during device configuration. The PC must have an RJ-45 Ethernet port and a
CDROM drive. The PC must be running the following:
• Windows 2000 or XP operating system
• A browser interface running Internet Explore 5.0 (or higher) or Netscape 6.0 (or higher)
• An access point (for infrastructure mode operation) or a networked client (for Ad-hoc mode
peer-to-peer operation).
Verifying the Package Contents
Before installing the CB3000, verify the package contains the following:
• CB3000 Installation Guide (this guide)
• CB3000 Software and Documentation CDROM
• CB3000 Client Bridge (Part No. CB-3000-0010-WWR)
• Ethernet cable
• Power adapter with 4 localized plugs
• Detachable omni-directional 802.11a/b/g antenna.
• Mounting hardware.
CAUTION Only qualified and approved antennas may be used with the CB3000.
NOTE Contact the Symbol Support Center to report any missing or improperly
functioning components.

Verifying the Installation Site
Mounting options for the CB3000 include table top, wall or under a counter mounting using the
keyholes and mounting hardware provided with the unit.
Before installing the CB3000, verify the installation site meets the following requirements:
• The Environmental Specifications as defined in the “Technical Specifications on page -23”
section of this guide.
• The site should have access to a properly rated power source.
• The site should be dry and within 100 meters of the device(s) (hub, telephone, computers,
point-of-sale) to be connected to the CB3000.
• The site should not be near other equipment (transformers, fluorescent lights etc.) that could
interfere with the CB3000’s radio transmissions.
• The site should be within 250 ft. of the wireless access point the CB3000 is targeting
for association.
Installing the CB3000
Cable and test the CB3000 before moving it to its table top, wall or under a counter operational
location. To cable the CB3000:
NOTE A cross-over cable is not required to directly connect the CB3000 to a PC.
CAUTION Do not connect a CB3000 (set to Infrastructure mode) directly to the
LAN supporting the WLAN the CB3000 is using (for example, through
a wall port). Such a connection could cause a transmission loop
between the CB3000 and its associated access point, disrupting
network connectivity.

1. Screw the antenna clockwise onto the antenna connector on the rear of the CB3000.
2. Attach one end of an Ethernet cable to a RJ-45 jack on a computer or hub.
3. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the LAN connector on the rear of
the CB3000.
4. Plug the power adapter into the DC-IN connector on the rear of the CB3000.
5. Connect the plug end of the power adapter into a power outlet.
The power adapter automatically selects and adjusts the power for the appropriate voltage
for worldwide use.
NOTE The back of the CB3000 also contains a Kensington lock mechanism for
attaching the CB3000 to an immovable objects in order to prevent theft.
CAUTION Only use the power adapter supplied by Symbol with the CB3000.
Using an incorrect power adapter could damage the CB3000 and void
the product warranty.
NOTE The CB3000 can use either a crossover or straight through cable.
