IR510 WPAN Gateway and IR530 WPAN Range Extender Hardware Installation Guide
IR510 Installation
The IR510 WPAN Gateway and IR530 Range Extender can be installed at any height, but best throughput is achieved when all the
WPAN gateways and WPAN range extenders are mounted at the same height. We recommend installing the devices no higher than 40
feet to allow support for wireless clients on the ground.

IR510 Hardware Overview
The IR510 operates within a wireless mesh network, providing intelligent control over Cisco Resilient Mesh Endpoints (RMEs) devices
that use Serial (RS232/RS485), USB (LS/FS/HS), or Fast Ethernet (10/100 Fast Ethernet) ports. Additionally, the gateway employs GPS
for time synchronization and location tracking.
The IR510 works with the CGR1000 series of routers, primarily in the electrical grid to provide a low cost, low power, small size DA
solution. The IR510 Gateway (
Figure 1 IR510 in IP30 Enclosure, page 7
) comes within a ruggedized IP30 enclosure. The enclosure allows
installation of IR510 within outdoor cabinets.
