Configuració i instal·lació

1. Understanding PTP and PTMP Configurations

The CPE362 supports both Point-to-Point (PTP) and Point-to-Multipoint (PTMP) network extensions. In a PTP setup, two bridges create a direct wireless link. In a PTMP setup, one master bridge connects to multiple slave bridges.

2. Instal·lació física

The CPE362 wireless bridges are designed for outdoor use and can be mounted on poles or walls using the included bracket mounts. Ensure a clear line of sight between the master and slave bridges for optimal performance.

The devices are weatherproof, designed to withstand sun, wind, sand, thunderstorms, and freezing temperatures.

3. Connecting the Bridges

The CPE362 bridges are designed for plug-and-play operation with automatic pairing. Each bridge has a switch to designate it as a Master (AP) or Slave (STA).

For initial setup, connect the Master bridge to your network source (e.g., router, NVR) via the POE adapter and LAN port. Connect the Slave bridge to the device you wish to provide network access to (e.g., security camera, computer) also via its POE adapter and LAN port. The bridges will automatically pair.

Operating the Wireless Bridge

Network Extension Applications

The CPE362 is versatile and can be used in various scenarios to extend your network:

• Security Camera Systems: Extend network connectivity to remote IP cameras without running long Ethernet cables.
• Home/Office Network Extension: Provide internet access to outbuildings, garages, or distant parts of a property.
• Integració Starlink: Seamlessly integrate with Starlink systems to extend satellite internet connectivity.

Suport VLAN

The CPE362 supports VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) functionality, allowing for network segmentation and improved security or traffic management. This advanced feature enables you to create separate logical networks over the same physical infrastructure.

Manteniment

The AdaLov CPE362 is built for durability and minimal maintenance, especially in outdoor environments. Its IP65 rating ensures protection against dust and water ingress. Regular visual inspections are recommended to ensure the physical integrity of the units and mounting brackets, especially after severe weather conditions.

Keep the lenses and surfaces clean from dirt, dust, or debris to maintain optimal signal transmission. Use a soft, damp drap per netejar. No utilitzeu productes químics agressius ni materials abrasius.

Resolució de problemes

• Sense connexió/Senyal deficient:
  • Ensure clear line of sight between master and slave bridges. Obstructions like trees or buildings can significantly degrade signal.
  • Verify that both bridges are powered on and the indicator lights are functioning correctly.
  • Check all Ethernet cable connections. Ensure they are securely plugged into the correct ports (LAN/POE).
  • Confirm that the Master/Slave switch on each unit is set correctly (one Master, one or more Slaves).
  • If manually configuring IP addresses, ensure they are within the same subnet and do not conflict with other devices on your network. The default IP and login info are typically found on the back of each bridge.
• Velocitat lenta:
  • Check for potential interference from other 5.8GHz devices.
  • Ensure the bridges are aligned properly. Minor adjustments can significantly improve performance.
  • Reduce the distance between bridges if possible, or ensure no new obstructions have appeared.
• Dispositiu no detectat:
  • Verify the network cable connecting the device to the bridge is working.
  • Check the device's own network settings (e.g., DHCP enabled or static IP configured correctly).
