AW900i User’s Manual
Quick Setup:
1. Plug in the AW900i.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from each AW900i to a client device.
Each AW900i radio automatically selects the best radio channel, encrypts the Ethernet traffic and transports the data wirelessly to its matched pair
Any Ethernet device can be connected to the AW900i. The AW900i functions in place of an Ethernet cable and provides a transparent wireless point to point Ethernet cable replacement. Cross-over cables are not necessary as the AW900i automatically senses the device (client or switch).
The AW900i has three user selectable modes; Site Survey, Manual Frequency Select and MAC filter. These modes are enabled by the 8 position DIP switch on the master. These settings are automatically shared between the units and only need to be set on one unit for both to be activated in these user selected modes. Site survey mode ( DIP switch 4 - default is OFF for normal operation )
In this mode the AW900i can perform a site survey. When activated, the Link Quality LEDS will be continuously updated to allow the installer to optimize antennas orientation and perform a channel quality assessment. In this mode the Radio link is flooded with simulated Ethernet traffic to stress the link and increase the accuracy of the Link Quality display. Regular Ethernet traffic does not get transported while the radios are in this mode. Manual frequency selection mode (DIP switches 2,3,5-8 – default is OFF for automatic mode)
The AW900i was designed to automatically select the best frequency for radio transmission. There may be circumstances when the user wishes to restrict the operation of the AW900i to a subset of the 902-928 band. The user may activate a manual selection mode that will allow the radio to automatically choose the best channel within a grouped subset of the 12 available channels…
