Hyperlink Extended Range WLAN Kit Installation Manual Rev. A Page 6 Introduction The Hyperlink Extended Range Wireless LAN Kit is a direct sequence spread spectrum wireless transceiver providing 11 Mbit/sec data rate to support wireless connections in an IEEE 802.3 LAN. Equipped with a Hyperlink Extended Range Amplified Antenna System, this product offers a high-performance long-range building-to-building wireless networking solution. This kit incorporates Lucent Technologies WaveLAN technology.
Hyperlink Extended Range WLAN Kit Installation Manual Rev. A Page 7 Types of Installations The type of application will determine which type of kit to install: 1. Fixed Point-to-Point (Building-to-Building or Tower-to-Tower): Typically these installations will typically require directional Yagi, Panel or Grid Antenna kits. These devices are authorized for operation in fixed, point-to-point configurations only.

FAILURE TO DO SO MAY VOID THE PRODUCT WARRANTY, AS WELL AS EXPOSE THE END-USER TO LEGAL AND/OR FINANCIAL LIABILITIES.
Hyperlink Extended Range WLAN Kit Installation Manual Rev. A Page 11 Preparing for System Installation Warning: These antennas are designed to be mounted in open areas such as rooftops or building exterior walls. They are designed to be installed at least 6 feet away from areas occupied by people. During system operation, always keep the antenna at least 1 foot away from your head. Warning: Before performing the following steps make certain that there are not any power lines within 50 ft.
Hyperlink Extended Range WLAN Kit Installation Manual Rev. A Page 12 Installing the Amplifier Bracket for mast-mounting: Install the right angle bracket as shown above using two (2) #10-24 screws and split lockwashers as shown. Note the orientation of the label relative to the 90 degree bend in the bracket. Proper positioning will ensure better visibility of the indicator LEDs when installed on the mast.
Hyperlink Extended Range WLAN Kit Installation Manual Rev. A Page 13 Installing the DC Injector Mounting Bracket: Install the bracket as shown above using two (2) #10-24 screws and split lockwashers as shown. For optimal lightning protection, it is recommended that one screw also be used for attachment of a suitable ground wire.
Hyperlink Extended Range WLAN Kit Installation Manual Rev. A Page 14 Mounting and Cabling the Amplified Antenna System: Note: Different model antenna kits have different mounting requirements and procedures. Refer to Appendix A in this manual for antenna mounting details. 1. Attach the mast mounting hardware to a solid structure on your building (e.g., the roof itself, concrete bulkhead, vent pipe). 2.
Hyperlink Extended Range WLAN Kit Installation Manual Rev. A Page 15 10. The DC Power Injector and Power Supply must be installed indoors near the radio. The Injector unit can be wall-mounted using the included bracket if desired. Attach the end of the 50 ft. antenna cable to the “TO AMPLIFIER” connector on the DC Power Injector/Lightning Protector. Attach the 0.5 meter adapter cable between the DC Power Injector’s “TO RADIO” connector and the WaveLAN card. 11.
Hyperlink Extended Range WLAN Kit Installation Manual Rev. A Page 16 Installing the PC Card The method for installing the WaveLAN PC card depends upon the type of host processor used. Follow the basic hardware installation instructions which came with the host processor for installing PC cards. When the PC card basic hardware installation is complete the card can be configured using the WaveLAN PC card configuration utilities software.
Hyperlink Extended Range WLAN Kit Installation Manual Rev. A Page 17 Basic System Operational Checks Using the system’s diagnostic LEDs, some basic system checks can now be performed. When power is applied to the DC Injector the POWER and RECEIVE indicators should illuminate green. In addition, the POWER/RECEIVE indicator will illuminate green on the remote amplifier unit. When the system is transmitting and receiving data the TRANSMIT to RECEIVE indicator LEDs flash on and off.
