How does it work
- Connect the power supply cable to the PoE.
- PoE injector provides the power to ODU via LAN cable,
- PC connects LAN Cable to PoE, then PC can surf the Internet when ODU accesses the 5G/LTE network.
This quick installation guide shows you how to configure your ODU in order to access the Internet.
Configure hardware
CAUTION
Please make sure that you are familiar with all accident prevention and safety
procedures necessary for working at height and with electricity before
starting to install the device.
DO NOT install the ODU during a lightning storm.
Insert a SIM Card to the Slot
CAUTION
Make sure the ODU is turned off before you insert your SIM card. It is
recommended to NOT connect the PoE cable when you do this step. Otherwise, the
SIM card may be damaged.
Mount the ODU
To connect the CAT6 (or above) Ethernet cable:
See the installation instructions to mount the ODU correctly.
Step 1 CAT6 (or above) cable to thread through the cable glands.
Step 2 Connect the end of the CAT6 (or above) Ethernet cable to the PoE
port of the ODU.
Step 3 Wiring the cable glands into ODU and seal tightly.
NOTE: Make sure you have inserted the SIM card into the ODU.
Header Connection
Mounting Bracket
NOTE: The ODU needs professional
installation.
Connect the protecting ground cable
Put the grounding screw through the hole of the grounding wire, lock it
together at the grounding hole of the metal shell (select one of the two
holes), and connect the other end of the grounding wire to the earth.
Choose Location
The ODU can be mounted on an antenna pole or mast or on a wall using the supplied mounting bracket.
- Choose a mounting point that is sturdy enough to hold the ODU, even during high winds.
- When choosing a location to install the ODU, please note that the ODU’s front panel should point towards your service provider’s nearest base station. You do not need to be able to see the base station from the ODU’s position. However, if you experience difficulties with signal reception, a Line of Sight (LoS) connection may produce better results.
- It is suggested that you transport the ODU to its intended installation location in its original protective package.
To obtain the best radio signal level and connection quality, the CPE antenna should be aimed towards the best eNB or BS directly.To search for the best eNB direction, the user can rotate the CPE slowly and tilt CPE slightly to find the best signal direction. The CPE radio signal strength level can be observed from the RF LEDs mounted on the lower panel as shown below. Different colored LEDs represent different signal strength.
Connect the PoE
Place a CAT6 (or above) Ethernet cable (not included) from the location of
your intended Router to the desired PC location.
If you intend to use cable clamps or other methods to secure the cable, do not
tighten them until you finish installing the Router and ODU.
Step 1 Connect the CAT6 (or above) Ethernet cable to PoE.
CAUTION
Do not connect to a computer or switch directly to the PoE port due to high
PoE power.
Step 2 Connect the power supply cable to the PoE. The POWER LED turns on a
solid green once connected.
Step 3 Connect the included Ethernet cable from the computer to one of the
Router’s Ethernet ports.
LED Behavior
When setting up the Outdoor Unit, the LED will have the following behavior:
ODU
PWR| Steady on| ODU Power on
Off| No power supply
NET| Steady on| Internet available
Off| Internet unavailable
Blinking (500ms interval)| Searching network
SIM| Steady on| SIM ready
Off| No SIM detected
SIG| Green| Signal strong
Yellow| Signal good
Red| Signal weak
Off| No signal
Blinking Green and Red (500ms interval)| Firmware upgrade
Configure the CPE
Login to the website
Use a browser to access the management web page to configure and manage the
CPE.
The following procedure describes how to use a computer running Windows 7 or
above version and Internet Explorer to connect to the CPE webpage.
Step 1 Connect to the CPE correctly.
Step 2 Start Internet Explorer, type http://192.168.225.1 in the
address bar, and press Enter. Step 3 Enter the user name and password, and
click Log In.
You can connect to the management web page after the password is verified.
Configuration of 5G/LTE
Step 1 Connect to the CPE correctly.
Step 2 Go to the management website.
Step 3 Choose Settings » Network » Radio Setting.
Step 4 Set the connection mode and scan mode.
The default setting is automatic connection and full band scanning, if you want to connect to the 5G/LTE network according to your needs, you can set the connection mode as manual, and simply scan a specific band.
Troubleshooting
The POWER indicator does not turn on.
- Make sure that the power cable is connected to the PoE, and the CPE is connected to the right port of the PoE.
Fails to Log in to the web management page.
- Make sure that the CPE is powered on.
- Verify that the CPE is correctly connected to the computer through a network cable.
If the problem persists contact authorized local service center.
The CPE fails to search for the 5G/LTE network.
- Check that the CPE is placed in an open area that is far away from obstructions, such as concrete or wooden walls.
- Check that the CPE is placed far away from household electrical appliances that generate strong electromagnetic field, such as microwave ovens, refrigerators, and satellite dishes.
If the problem persists, contact your Internet Service Provider.
The parameters are restored to default values.
- If the CPE powers off unexpectedly while being configured, parameters might reset to their default settings.
- After configuring the parameters, download the configuration file to quickly restore the CPE to the desired settings.
