User’s Manual

Thank you for your purchase of the AW900m Module.

If you have any questions when configuring your AvaLAN module, please send us an email:

Quick Setup for systems using the AW900m Module:

1. Attach an RPSMA 900MHz antenna to each module.

2. Plug in the AW900m module.

3. Connect an Ethernet cable from each AW900m to a network device.

4. Send Ethernet traffic. For troubleshooting see page 2.

Each AW900m radio automatically selects the best radio channel, encrypts the Ethernet

traffic and transports the data wirelessly to its mate.

Any Ethernet device can be connected to the AW900m. The AW900m 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 AW900m automatically senses the

device (client or switch.

Advanced Settings: Automatic frequency selection mode (DIP switches – all OFF for automatic mode) The AW900m is designed to automatically select and continuously optimize the performance of its radio channel. The radio channel is monitored to ensure it is providing low error rates necessary for successful radio transmission. In the event that the error rate rises, the AW900m will autonomously change to a new channel. There are 12 non-overlapping channels.

FCC-Approved Antennas (900 MHz) Fixed Base Station and Mobile Applications AvaLAN Modules are pre-FCC approved for use in fixed base station and mobile applications. When the antenna is mounted at least 20 cm (8”) from nearby persons, the application is considered a mobile application. Portable Applications and SAR Testing When the antenna is mounted closer than 20 cm to nearby persons, then the application is considered “portable” and requires an additional test be performed on the final product.
