Getting Started • Connect a Cat-5 (straight through) Ethernet cable (we recommend shielded twisted pair) between the ODU (out door unit) port of the J-box and the RJ-45 connector on the radio. Note that this cable will carry power-over-Ethernet (PoE). • If connecting to a COMPUTER, use a Cross-Over Ethernet cable from the NET port of the J-box to the computer’s Ethernet port. If connecting to a HUB, SWITCH, or ROUTER, use a Straight-Thru cable. • Plug the AC adapter into an AC

Getting Started APs and SUs can be in one of two Opmodes (“ON” or “OFF”). When in Opmode “OFF,” the AP is not transmitting and it is not attempting to associate with SUs. Alternatively, when in Opmode “ON,” the radio is transmitting and is attempting to associate. Several functions, such as the site survey function and the SU RSSI function, can only be performed while the radio is in a particular Opmode. See Appendix A – Command Set Reference for a complete listing of commands,

Basic Configuration via Browser Interface Link Control Page The radio’s firmware includes several useful tools to assist in determining which SUs are associated and the quality of each link. One method for verifying link quality is by using the Link Control page. On this page the user can immediately see which SUs have associated. In the page shown, SU ID# 1 is associated, and SU ID 17 is not. Consider "Power Off" status synonymous with "not associated." RF Link Loopback
