Chapter 1: Introduction
The OD200 WiMAX Residential Gateway is a WiMAX subscriber station designed to
provide Internet access for a home or small office. The unit provides a gateway
function between a WiMAX service provider and a local Ethernet LAN. The device
enables a service provider to deliver last mile broadband wireless access as an
alternative to wired DSL or cable modems.
The OD200 is a combination of an indoor unit (IDU) and an outdoor unit (ODU).
There are different ODU units for each of the 2.3, 2.5, and 3.5 GHz WiMAX
frequency bands. Which ODU unit you use depends on the frequency band of your
service provider’s WiMAX service.
The OD200 IDU includes four RJ-45 Ethernet switch ports for LAN connections and
two RJ-11 Voice over IP (VoIP) phone ports. An 802.11b/g Wi-Fi module is included
that provides a local Wi-Fi access point service. The IDU also includes a dedicated
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) RJ-45 port that connects to the ODU.
The following table lists the available OD200 models.
The OD200 offers a user-friendly web-based management interface for the
configuration of all the unit’s features. Any PC directly attached to the unit can
access the management interface using a web browser, such as Internet Explorer
(version 6.0 or above) or Firefox (version 1.5 or above).
The initial configuration steps can be made through the web browser interface using
the Setup Wizard. It is recommended to make the initial changes by connecting a
PC directly to one of the IDU’s LAN ports.
