Installation Requirements The NanoBeam can be mounted on a pole or to a wall. A Metal Strap (included) is used for pole-mounting. For wall-mounting, a suitable fastener such as a screw or bolt (not included) is required. • 7 mm socket wrench or screwdriver (for pole‑mounting) • Wall fastener (for wall-mounting) • Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling should be used for all wired Ethernet connections and should be grounded through the AC ground of the PoE.
Reset Button To reset to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset button for more than 10 seconds while the NanoBeam is already powered on. Alternatively, the NanoBeam may be reset remotely via a Reset button located on the bottom of the PoE Adapter. Ethernet Port The Ethernet port is used to connect the power and should be connected to the LAN and DHCP server.
Hardware Installation The NanoBeam can be mounted on a pole or to a wall. Perform the steps for the appropriate installation: Pole-Mount 1. Insert the Ball Joint Mount into the Lock Ring with the threads of the Lock Ring facing the ball joint. 2. Open the Metal Strap and feed it through the base of the Ball Joint Mount.
3. Wrap the Metal Strap around the pole. Use a 7 mm socket drive or screwdriver to turn the screw clockwise and securely fasten the strap to the pole. 4. Attach the NanoBeam to the Ball Joint Mount and turn the Lock Ring to secure it. Keep the Lock Ring loose enough to allow the NanoBeam to pivot for aiming.
Wall-Mount The NanoBeam must be mounted directly to a wood stud or other structurally stable surface to avoid damage to the mounting hole when you adjust the aim. Optional Accessory To enhance stability, you can use the NanoBeam Wall Mount Kit, model NBE-WMK (sold separately). Note: Center screw included. Two optional screws (not included) provide additional stability. Installation Instructions 1. Mark the desired location of the mounting point. 2. If needed, drill a pilot hole for the fastener. 3.
4. If you are using the optional NanoBeam Wall Mount Kit, skip to step b. a. To attach the Ball Joint Mount to the wall, insert a fastener (not included) through the center of the ball joint, and into the wall. Securely tighten the fastener. Proceed to step 5. b. To attach the Ball Joint Mount to the wall, insert the Wall Mount Kit screw through the center of the ball joint, through the Wall Mount Kit plate, and into the wall. Securely tighten the screw.
5. Attach the NanoBeam to the Ball Joint Mount and turn the Lock Ring to secure it. Keep the Lock Ring loose enough to allow the NanoBeam to pivot for aiming. Aiming 1. Ensure the opening of the Ethernet cable is pointed towards the ground. 2. Aim the front of the NanoBeam towards the other end of the wireless link. 3. Hand-tighten the Lock Ring to lock the aim. Note: Do not use a tool to tighten the Lock Ring. Tighten the Lock Ring by hand only.
Connecting to the PoE Adapter 1. Remove the port cover by pressing down the center of the cover and sliding the cover out. 2. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port. 3. Replace the port cover.
4. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable from the NanoBeam to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the PoE Adapter. 5. Connect an Ethernet cable from your LAN or computer to the Ethernet port labeled LAN on the PoE Adapter. 6. Connect the Power Cord to the power port on the PoE Adapter. Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a power outlet.
Accessing airOS Verify connectivity in the airOS Configuration Interface. 1. Make sure that your host machine is connected via Ethernet to the NanoBeam. 2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet. 3. Launch your web browser and type https://192.168.1.20 in the address field.
