Installation Overview We recommend that you configure your paired airFiber radios before mounting. Below is an overview of the installation with specific details on the following pages: Connect Power over Ethernet to the DATA port, and connect an Ethernet cable between your computer and the MANAGEMENTport. Configure the device settings in the airFiber Configuration Interface. Once configuration is complete, disconnect the cables to move the airFiber radios. Reconnect at the site.
PAGE 5
Connecting Power over Ethernet Push the button in the Port Cover and slide the Port Cover down to access the RJ45 connectors. Connect an Ethernet cable to the DATA port. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable from the DATA port to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the PoE Adapter. Connect the Power Cord to the power port on the PoE Adapter. Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a power source.
PAGE 6
Configure the Ethernet adapter on your computer with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet (for example, 192.168.1.100). Launch your web browser. Type http://192.168.1.20 in the address field and press enter (PC) or return (Mac). The login screen will appear. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Select your Country and Language. You must agree to the Terms of Use to use the product. Click Login. Note: U.S. product versions are locked to the U.S.
PAGE 7
Configure the Wireless Security: Select the AES Key Type, HEX or ASCII. For the Key field: HEX Enter 16 bytes (eight, 16‐bit HEX values: 0‐9, A‐F, or a‐f). You can omit zeroes and use colons, similar to the IPv6 format. Note: The airFiber Configuration Interface supports IPv6 formats excluding dotted quad and "::" (double colon) notation. ASCII Enter a combination of alphanumeric characters (0‐9, A‐Z, or a‐z). Click Change and then click Apply.
PAGE 8
Connecting Ethernet Turn the Cover Lock to the Unlocked icon. Slide the Port Cover down to remove it. Connect a TOUGHCable or other outdoor, shielded CAT5e/6 cable to the DATA port. Create a strain relief for the Ethernet cable by feeding a Cable Tie through the tie slot alongside the cable. Then wrap the Cable Tie around the cable and tighten. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable from the DATA port to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the PoE Adapter.
PAGE 9
For the Master and Slave, ensure the Azimuth (AZ) and Elevation (EL) Adjustment Bolts are in the middle of their adjustment ranges. Master Aim the Master at the Slave. If necessary, adjust the Master's position on the pole: Loosen the Hex Nuts. Adjust the Pole Mount Bracket and Pole Clamps. Tighten the Hex Nuts. Slave Aim the Slave at the Master to achieve the strongest received signal level on the Slave's numeric LED Display, which is located next to the MANAGEMENT port.
