Quick Start Guide
To create a point-to-multipoint system, you need one AW58300HTA Access Point and one or more
AW58300HTS Subscriber Units. We recommend connecting and powering up the units on the bench
before deploying in the field because it is much easier to troubleshoot problems and to adjust the
configuration if necessary without having to climb poles to do it. Activate the AW58300HTS units one
at a time until they can be given distinct IP addresses.
Step 1. Gather the parts: In addition to the AvaLAN radios and the accompanying AW-POE18i Power
Over Ethernet Injectors, you will need at least 4 CAT5 cables and a PC with a LAN connection. If de-
sired, you may also want a data source such as a surveillance camera with a TCP/IP interface. (You
can determine that the radios are communicating without an external data source by browsing to the
radio on the other side of the RF link from your PC.)
Step 2. Make the connections: Connect the devices as shown in the diagram. Do not point the two
radio antennas directly at each other because their close proximity will overload the radio receivers.
Place the radios at least 10 feet apart with their antennas pointing in different directions. Plug in the
power supplies to turn on the radios.
Step 3. The default IP addresses of the radios are written on their product labels. The address of the
Access Point (master) is 192.168.88.12. The address of the Subscriber Unit (client) is 192.168.88.10.
You must configure your PC’s wired LAN port to the same subnet and an IP address different from ei
-
ther of the above. With this configuration in place, you should be able to use a web browser on your
PC to log in to each radio’s interface.
