Product Usage Instructions

  1. Standalone Configuration:

The PMP-SIV1 can be used as a standalone access point or in CPE mode. To use it in standalone mode:

  1. * Ensure you have a compatible power over ethernet (PoE) injector (48v .5A, 4,5+:7,8-).
    • Connect your computer to the LAN port on the PoE injector using a Cat cable.
    • Connect the provided Cat6 cable from the CUB to the PoE port on the PoE injector.
  2. Link Planning:

Prior to installation, it is important to plan the network-wide frequency and consider factors such as topography, climate, interferences, and other challenges.

  1. * Coordinate a network-wide frequency plan.
    • Consider topography, climate, interferences, and other challenges.
  2. Installation:

Follow these steps for installation:

  1. * Ensure you have the necessary tools: Hose Clamp and Flathead Screwdriver.
    • Use a typical J-Arm installation or a 50mm pole for mounting.
    • Ensure all mounting hardware is properly grounded according to local building codes.
    • Do not use the product on aircraft or satellites.
