Ultra-Link Processing™ - Access Point Product Overview Each Access Point supports tens of thousands of sensors and can simultaneously demodulate signals from up to 1000 sensors using a unique patented multiple access scheme. With 172 dB of total allowable path loss (FCC/IC regulatory regions) the ULP network can easily be deployed using a star topology configuration, overcoming the limitations of legacy wireless sensor networks (802.11, 802.15.
Ultra-Link Processing™ - Access Point Environmental/Operational Parameters The Access Point was tested to ETSI EN 300 019-2-4 Specification T4.1 for non-weatherprotected locations.
Ultra-Link Processing™ - Access Point Installation Professional Installation The ULPAP110, and any associated equipment requires professional installation; a) installation of the equipment must be controlled, b) Installation must be performed by licensed professionals, c) installation of the equipment requires special training (special programming, field strength measurements and transmit power calculations) to meet FCC/IC guidelines.
Ultra-Link Processing™ - Access Point Note: Mount the AP directly to non-metallic wall studs if possible; do not secure the AP to a drywall surface. When stud spacing exceeds the AP’s mounting dimensions, secure ½” plywood to the studs and secure the AP to the plywood mount. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Place the AP against the mounting location. Drill a 3/16” hole through each of the mounting tabs and into the mounting surface. Insert a ¼” x 1” wood screw thru each mounting tab and into the mounting surface.
Ultra-Link Processing™ - Access Point a. It may be necessary to offset the vertical orientation a few degrees from 0 vertical in order to align the mounting tabs with available thru holes in the rack tray. 7. Slide rack tray half way out of the rack. 8. Place the AP on the rack tray and align the mounting tabs so that they offer a clear mounting point. 9. Orient the unit so that the antenna connectors are facing you. 10. Place a ¼” x ½” screw into each mounting tab. 11.

Ultra-Link Processing™ - Access Point Antenna Parameters The FCC sets maximums transmit power limits. The AP’s maximum TX power capability is 30dBm. Maximum allowable Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) for the professionally installed Access Point 36 dBm (4 watt). The Access Point transmit output power is adjusted, if required as part of a professional installation, using On-Ramp Wireless’ Network Management Software.
Ultra-Link Processing™ - Access Point To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (E.i.R.P.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication. The responsibility for staying within these power limits falls on the professional installer.
