Installation Overview We recommend that you configure your airFiber radio before site installation.
airFiber 60 Configuration Connecting Power over Ethernet 1. 2. 3.
Configuring the Settings 1. 2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your computer with a static IP address on the 192.168.2.x subnet. 3. Launch your web browser. In the address field, type: http://192.168.1.20 Then press enter (PC) or return (Mac). http://192.168.1.20 4. 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.
5. Click the icon. 6. Configure the following settings: a. For one airFiber radio, enable Access Point mode. For the other airFiber radio (the Station), keep Access Point disabled. b. Enter a name in the SSID field. This should be the same on both the AP and the Station. c. In the WPA2 Preshared Key field, enter a combination of alphanumeric characters (0-9, A-Z, or a-z). Note: The key is an alphanumeric password between 8 and 63 characters long. 7. Click Save Changes. 8.

Alignment Tips • To accurately align the airFiber radios for best performance, you MUST align only one end of the link at a time. • You may need to use additional hardware to compensate for issues such as the improper orientation of a mounting pole or significant elevation differences between airFiber radios. Establishing a Link Adjust the aim of the AP and the Station to establish a link.
Adjust the elevation: ±20 Note: Do NOT make simultaneous adjustments on the AP and Station. 2. Station Visually aim the Station at the AP. To adjust the Station’s position, adjust the azimuth and elevation as described in step 1. 3. Open the Configuration Interface. Select Tools and then select Align Antenna. 4. Check to see if a link is established. Ensure that the 60G LED or the 5G LED is solidly lit blue. 5. Station Aim the Station at the AP to achieve the strongest signal level on the AP.
6. AP Aim the AP at the Station to achieve the strongest signal level on the Station. 7. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you achieve an optimal link. This ensures the best possible data rate between the airFiber radios. 8. Lock the alignment on both airFiber radios by tightening all the nuts and bolts. 9. Observe the signal level of each airFiber radio to ensure that the values remain constant while tightening the nuts.
Installer Compliance Responsibility Devices must be professionally installed and it is the professional installer’s responsibility to make sure the device is operated within local country regulatory requirements.
