Through the EMS, the network administrator can manage and monitor both the base
station/hub devices and the WMUs located at the subscriber premise. The client/server
architecture of the EMS provides the facilities to manage the system from various locations
over the Internet. Because the Axity EMS provides this user-friendly Web interface,
technicians attempting to troubleshoot problems at remote locations can easily access network
management data and interfaces necessary to perform their tasks.

The hardware configuration for the CPE consists of outdoor transverter/antenna assemblies, an
indoor WMU, indoor power supplies, and associated coaxial cabling as shown in Figure 1-2
for the single user CPE configuration and Figure 1-3 for the multiple user CPE configuration.
A single coax interconnect provides the DC and IF (intermediate frequency) signal handling
between the transverter and indoor equipment. Typically, a 17 dBi integrated planar
antenna/transverter will provide sufficient signal gain. Other antennas can also be used with a
standalone transverter for locations that require a different gain.
