Overview of ePMP Hardware ePMP Quick Start Guide Overview of ePMP Hardware This section describes the key components of the ePMP Access Point and Station modules. Access Point Hardware External antenna ports (50Ω, SMA) LED Indicators Removable Lower Shell (for Ethernet port access) Access Point LED Indicators Label Function POWER Lit green when power is applied to the device. GPS SYNC Lit green when the AP has acquired a valid synchronization signal from a CMM or from its internal GPS.
Overview of ePMP Hardware ePMP Quick Start Guide Station Hardware LED Indicators Mounting Bracket Removable Lower Shell (for Ethernet port access) Station LED Indicators 2 Label Function POWER Lit green when power is applied to the device. ETH1 Lit green when Ethernet link is established at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, and blinks as traffic is sent over “Main” Ethernet interface.
Powering On the Access Point ePMP Quick Start Guide Installing the Access Point The ePMP Access Point is designed to attach to a Cambium antenna or to be pole-mounted (for use with a nonCambium antenna).
Powering On the Access Point ePMP Quick Start Guide Pole-mounting the Access Point To install an ePMP Access Point with an aftermarket antenna, perform the following steps.
ePMP Quick Start Guide Installing the Station The ePMP Station is designed to be pole-mounted. The Station antenna and networking components are self contained, so an external antenna does not need to be installed.
Connecting to the Unit and Logging into the Web Management Interface ePMP Quick Start Guide Connecting to the Unit and Logging into the Web Management Interface To configure or monitor your ePMP networking equipment, log into the web management interface following the steps below: 4 1 Connect management PC Ethernet cable to power supply LAN port 2 Configure the management PC with an IP address in the 192.168.0.x subnet (for example, 192.168.0.100, subnet mask 255.255.255.0).
Configuring Quick Start Parameters (AP) ePMP Quick Start Guide Configuring Quick Start Parameters (AP) The Quick Start tab contains a simple listing of parameters required to configure a simple radio link and to configure requisite networking parameters. After configuring these parameters on the AP and STA and resetting both devices, the STA will be ready to associate (register) to the AP.

Enabling GPS Synchronization ePMP Quick Start Guide Verifying Radio Connectivity Enabling GPS Synchronization There are two ways in which the AP may receive GPS synchronization signaling: Internal GPS (models C024900A011A, C050900A011A, C058900A112A): The ePMP access point contains an internal GPS chip and antenna for receiving synchronization pulse and data (location, date, and time) from GPS satellites.
Regulatory Compliance ePMP Quick Start Guide Cabling and ligntning protection The following practices are essential to the reliability and longevity of cabled connections: Use only shielded cables and connectors to resist interference and corrosion. For vertical runs, provide cable support and strain relief. Include a 2-ft (0.6-m) service loop on each end of the cable to allow for thermal expansion and contraction and to facilitate terminating the cable again when needed.
ePMP regulatory compliance ePMP Quick Start Guide USA and Canada specific information The USA Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has asked manufacturers to implement special features to prevent interference to weather radar systems that operate in the band 5600 MHz to 5650 MHz. These features must be implemented in all products able to operate outdoors in the band 5470 MHz to 5725 MHz.
