Connection Scenario
For outdoor CPE product, it is suggested that the CPE device be installed in a shaded area to avoid direct
sun light exposure and prolong the device life.
For Outdoor CPE product, It is recommended that the installation shall be operated by professional
engineer.
To power on the device, the outdoor CPE must uses a 48V PoE integrated DC power supply adapter. The
power adapters can operate in100-240V AC range and therefore can be used in different country. Once the
device is powered up, the user should wait for about 2 minutes before the device becomes operational. For
CPE with the RUN LED indicator, a slowly flashing light indicates the system has completed the startup
procedure.
To connect PC, LAN switch or other type of IP device to the CPE product, the user should use standard
CAT5 Ethernet cable and connect to the appropriate LAN port. Once connected, the
CPE LAN LED indicator should come on.
To obtain the best radio signal level and connection quality, the CPE antenna should be aimed towards the
best eNB or BS directly. To search for the best eNB direction, the user can rotate the CPE slowly and tilte
CPE slightly to find the best signal direction. The CPE radio signal strength level can be observed from
the RF LEDs mounted on the lower panel as shown below. The more LEDs on, the better the signal
strength.
