Installation
The TPWLR58B1 Base Station must be installed by professional installation
contractors, trained by TruePath Wireless, LLC. The FCC Part 15 requirements will be
followed by the professional installers.
To install the system, first the Internet Service Provider (ISP) needs to procure tower
space for base station sectors and connect them to an Internet backhaul provider. Next,
the back office consists of a webserver/payment gateway hosted by a 3
rd
party provider,
while a radius/User manager, network management system (NMS) client and server are
needed to support, provision, and configure the network. Finally, an embedded client is
installed at the target facility.
