WES CONNECTION DIAGRAMS 

 
The  following  wiring  schemes  represent  the  configurations  that  have  been  tested  and 
verified by KBC based on typical Ethernet wiring solutions. Other wiring configurations 
could be possible based on the application. A bench test is recommended to verify the 
designs below.

* Type of Cat5 configuration may be determined by LAN port of the Ethernet device. 

If the port is a 10/100 port, you may require a crossover cable. Most cables used 

to the connect the WES system are configured using a straight-through color 

code.

WEM INSTALLATION & OPERATION 

 

A.

 

SELECT CHANNEL 

1.

 

Remove the ½ inch plastic cap on the side of the Host/Client.  

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

2.

 

The rotary switch inside features a small black arrow pointing at the 
selected channel indicator. The switch has 8 positions. 

Channels 0 

through 3 are all 5745 MHz.

 To select a different frequency, select 

channel 4 or higher then power cycle the WEM device. 

 

Default set to channel 0 (5745 MHz) as shown in the 
diagram to the left. 

 
 

 

 

3.  Power cycle device to implement channel change 

 
 

 

 

4.  Reseal port by replacing weatherproof plug 
 

B.

 

MOUNT DIRECTIONAL HOST/CLIENT 
Mount  the  Host/Client  using  the  included  wall/pole  mount  bracket  and 
hardware.  Connect  the  black  mounting  assembly  with  adjustment  swivel  to 
mounting  L-shaped  bracket  with  the  ¼-20  button  head  screw.  Connect  the 
unit  to  the  mounting  assembly  using  the  ¼”  mounting  hole  in  the  case 
(diagram B-1). Position the Host and point it in the direction of the Client (or 
Client to Host) and tighten the swivel mount. Lock in the antenna upon a solid 
green Signal Level LED (Multipoint Host green LED will flash).  
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

Diagram B-2, above right, shows strain relief weatherproof plug. RJ-45 port 

protected when plug in use. Tighten snug to case bottom (section A) but 

leave open enough (section B) for slight cable movement and condensation 

release.

FAQ: To which port on the PIM does the WES connect? 

The “P+Data Out” always connects to the WEM. 

FAQ: How far from the Ethernet device can I mount the 

WEM? 

The cable from the Ethernet device to the WEM cannot exceed 
100 meters (326 feet). The PIM can be situated anywhere along 
that 100m length of cable.
