ULNA CPE609 Wireless Bridge User Manual
Overview
Introduce
ULNA CPE412 is a long-distance 5.8G wireless transmission device. It uses
wireless communication technology to transmit network data using air as a
medium to perform long-distance point-to-point or point-to-multipoint
interconnection. The working data link layer realizes the interconnection of
local area networks. The transmission distance can reach up to 3km. CPE412
Video Bridge Transmission usually consists of two devices in AP and Client
mode respectively. On the Client-side (Receiving side) CPE connects with IP
Camera, at the AP side (Transmitting side) CPE connects with a video recorder.
The AP can be receiving wireless data transmitted from multiple Clients, and
it is easy and convenient for centralized management of the remote equipment.
CPE is widely used in highways, reservoir river monitoring, elevator
monitoring systems, site crane monitoring systems, port terminal monitoring
systems, marine aquaculture monitoring systems, and so on. Point to point
extend network WiFi range, extend the network in the house to your barn,
garage, church, warehouse, and even neighbor’s house through wireless bridge
signal transmission. No need to install a new modem and pay for it every
month, saving you money.

Quick Start
PoE Power Supply
The CPE412 wireless bridge adopts a PoE power supply, which is easy to install
and manage while saving costs.
According to the requirements, prepare a long enough network cable Recommended
within 20 meters, must Cat 5e or up)to connect the wireless bridge and the PoE
power supply. The PoE port of the PoE power supply is connected to the WAN
port of the wireless bridge.
The LAN port of the PoE power supply is connected to the PC, router, and
switch.\
Point to Point Pairing Step:
-
Switch one unit to A(Transmitter ) and one unit to B(Receiver)
-
Connect the POE to each unit using the Ethernet cable and plug the POE in;
-
Wait for them to power up, about 2 min;
-
Use the tiny reset button to click through until you get a channel with a letter. 1,2,3,…, A,B,C,…,F, here used C;
-
Then on the other unit do the same. Both units need to be on the same channel;
-
Wait for 2-5 minutes to complete the pairing. When the number of the digital
tube is solid and the signal light on the side turns on, it means the pairing is
successful; -
Finally connect other devices(Router, PC, Switch) and install them to the target location.
(TIPS: Steps 1, 4 and 5 are already pre-set) -
Point to Multipoint Pairing Step:
Pole mount e.g. 1 master bridge with 3 slave bridges
- Switch one unit to A(Master Bridge) and 3 units to B(Slave Bridge);
- Connect the POE to each unit using the Ethernet cable and plug the POE in;
- Wait for them to power up, about 2 min;
- Use the tiny reset button to click through until you get a channel with a letter. 1,2,3,…, A,B,C,…,F, here used C;
- Then on the other 3 unit do the same. 4 units need to be on the same channel;
- Wait for 2-5 minutes to complete the pairing. When the number of the digital tube is solid and the signal light on the side turns on, it means their pairing is successful;
- Finally connect other devices(Router, PC, Switch) and install them to the target location.
Installation
**Pole mount
Wall-mounted
Connect to the device
**
- Choose to pole mount or wall-mounted, adjust the CP bracket is not included in the package. Recommended ULNA Universal Bracket (ASIN: B0B5TWYHWC).
- Please, prepare a long enough network cable to connect the PoE adapter and CPE, the network cable is connected to the LAN port of the CPE, andthe other end is connected to the PoE port of the PoE adapter. Recommend to use a cat 5(or above) shielded network cable with a ground wire.
- Connect the PoE adapter PoE to CPE, and LAN to Camera, PC, Router or Switch based on the network topology. The role of PoE is to provide power and data transmission for CPE.
- The master CPE’s PoE adapter’s LAN connection monitors the Internet, and the slave CPE’s PoE adapter LAN connects cameras or routers and other equipment
Note : For point-to-point installation, the line of sight of the 2 wireless bridge brackets must be clear and cannot pass through the wall. The signal transmission angle of the bridge is 60 degrees. For point-to-multipoint installation, the angle of the slave bridge needs to be adjusted to ensure that it is within the 60-degree signal range of the main bridge. The antenna polarization direction is horizontal 60°/vertical 30
Application Case
Case 1: Point-to-point extended network WiFi range
Case 2: Point-to-point extended of surveillance cameras range
Case 3: Point-to-multiple point extended surveillance cameras range
Case 4: Point-to-point extended surveillance cameras range.

Access to the WEB interface
Tips:
No need to enter the WEB interface wireless bridge can be used normally
-
Computer Access Wireless Bridge, connect the CPE to the computer Refer to the figure left to connect the CPE to the computer through a PoE adapter and an Ethernet cable.
-
Modify your computer’s IP address, make your computer’s IP and the bridge’s IP address be on the same network segment(LAN) so that you can access them.
Step 1 : Find and open “Open Network and Sharing Center” on your computer.
Tips: click the network icon in the lower right corner of the computer.
Step 2 : Find and open the “Change adapter settings”, select “Local Area Connection” to right-click to open the network properties. Refer to the picture above to open.
Step 3 : Find and double-click open the “Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPv4)”, choose the ” Use the following IP address” and enter IP address, subnet mask, Default gateway, Preferred DDS server. -
Change your computer’s IP address to 192.168.255.xxx (192.168.255.xxx cannot be the same as the IP of the CPE), then the entry IP address is 192.168.255.xxx, the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0(Autofill), the Default gateway is 192.168.255.xxx, Preferred DDS server 192.168.255.xxx. You can use 192.168.255.105(xxx=5) in the reference picture to set.

Troubleshooting
Trouble | Reason | Solution |
---|
Packet Latency
| 1. Wireless interference2. Distance is too long, or there are some walls between them3. CPE’s angle in the wrong direction, weak signal| 1. Use WiFi analysis to choose the best channel2. CPE should be in the normal distance, and avoid the wall3. Adjust the angle of CPE according to signal strength
Can not login WEB
| 1. Local IP is not in the same network segment of CPE2. IP is taken by other devices3. LAN connection or ethernet cable has a problem4. Too much cookie, MAC address haven’t update| 1. Ping bridge IP address to see the connection status2. Stop other devices or change to another IP address3. Check LAN connection and Ethernet cable4. Clear cookie, run arp -d to clear MAC address
System LED l ight off
| 1. PoE power supply is not working2. Some problem in CPE’s PoE port3. Ethernet cable is loose,RJ45 port is wrong power current/voltage lower or wrong| 1. Check if the PoE adapter or PoE switch work2. Check if the PoE port of CPE is ok3. Check if Ethernet cable is loose if Ethernet cable plugged into PoE port4. Check if the voltage is normal, if the socket has problem if the input voltage of the PoE adapter is normal
Low transmission Rate
| 1. Packet Latency2. Ethernet cable circuit3. Network virus attack4. Too
much access users5. Network Cables type lower than Cat 5e?| 1. Adjust the
distance, angle and channel to decrease latency2. Check if port isolated to
avoid network virus and broadcast storm4. Decrease the access users.5.
Change use a Cat 5e or above network cable.
---|---|---
Device always dead
|
1. Static electricity2. Running time too long3. Lightning stroke
| 1. Make CPE or PoE adapter need a ground connection2. Running time over 7 days, reboot it3. After lightning, device PoE port broken or unstable better to deploy lightning conductor
