Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used according to the instructions, may

cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no

guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this

equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which

is found by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to

correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

• Increase the separation between the equipment or devices

• Connect the equipment to an outlet other than the receiver’s

• Consult a dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for assistance

Chapter 1: Introduction

The Telex Wireless CPE/Outdoor Bridge

Perfect for the home or small office connection to the network, the Telex Wireless CPE

(Customer Premise Equipment) extends wireless connectivity from an access point to any

Ethernet-ready network device, such as a switch, router, desktop or notebook PC. The Wireless

CPE simply and efficiently transmits data between 10Base-T and your wireless LAN or wireless

ISP access point.

The Telex Wireless CPE gives you the freedom to place any standard networked computer

anywhere within range of an access point. A built-in 18 dBi antenna and 200 mW radio means

that you can easily cover distances of up to 12 miles.

Based on signal strength, it dynamically shifts between 11, 5.5, 2 and 1 Mbps network speeds for

maximum reliability of connection. So you’ve got the flexibility and performance you need

from your wireless LAN or wireless ISP.

Wireless data or VoIP is transmitted and received from the CPE to the network access point (AP)

on the 2.4 GHz ISM band. The radio signal path must be line-of-sight (LOS) between the 2

antennas.

Tools and Hardware Needed:

The following tools will be needed to assemble and mount your wireless CPE:

7/16” nut driver or wrench

5/16” nut driver or wrench

3/4” wrench or adjustable wrench for grommet nut

UV-stable plastic cable ties or black electricians tape

Mast pipe or DSS dish mount on which to mount the CPE

Adequate length of exterior CAT-5 cable

RJ45 plugs and crimping tool

Chapter 2: Getting to Know the Wireless CPE

Inside the Wireless CPE

Before you can either test or install the Telex Wireless CPE, you must attach a length of outdoor-

rated (external) CAT-5 Ethernet cable to the unit. Remove the access panel from the rear panel

of the CPE using a 5/16” nut driver or wrench. Loosen the plastic nut on the outside of the

waterproof cable entry grommet, then insert the unterminated end of a length of exterior CAT-5

8-conductor Ethernet cable through this grommet.

Attach a standard RJ45 connector to the end of this cable using standard wiring for a straight

(non-crossover) connection. Plug this connector into the RJ45 socket on the PCB (printed circuit

board) that is attached to the access panel. Tighten down the cable strain relief clamp on the

cable. Do NOT unplug the small antenna cable from the radio card unless absolutely necessary.

WARNING: Before touching the PCB, make sure that you are grounded and have dissipated

any static charge to ground.

You will see a small 2-position slide switch near the RJ45 socket. If you are connecting the

wireless CPE directly to a computer network card or other Ethernet device, then slide this switch

toward the RJ45 socket. If you are connecting the wireless CPE to a hub or switch, then slide

this switch away from the RJ45 socket. Later, when you apply power to the unit, the second

green LED will indicate if this switch position was properly selected.

There are two small pushbutton switches on the PCB. These are only used if you wish to reset

the wireless CPE to factory default settings. (e.g. you forgot or lost the user name and/or

password)

Allow approximately 6 inches of CAT-5 cable between the grommet and the PCB, then tighten

the outside nut of the weatherproof grommet. Also ensure that the inside nut is secure. Make

sure that both the small antenna cable and the CAT-5 cable are secure, then re-attach the access

panel to the CPE rear panel before proceeding.

The Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) injector

The Telex Wireless CPE uses a PoE injector to supply DC power to the device. To test the

wireless CPE, install another RJ45 plug to the other end of your exterior CAT-5 cable and

connect this end to the PoE box in the socket marked ANTENNA. Also connect one end of the

supplied 7 foot CAT5 patch cable in the socket marked COMPUTER. The other end of this 7

foot cable will plug into the Ethernet port of your computer or into a hub or switch port. Plug the

supplied 12 volt 1 amp supply into a standard 110VAC outlet or power strip. Plug the other end

of this DC supply into the PoE box in the socket marked DC.

WARNING: Make sure that the antenna is pointed away from any humans or animals while

power is applied! A safe distance is approximately 18 inches or more.

The PoE injector box may be placed on the floor or mounted anywhere near the computer, hub,

switch or router.
