Hardware Overview Bottom View Radome Antenna Feed Technology Ethernet Port Reset Button Release Button Reflector Mounting Bracket Alignment Pins Rear Housing Release Button Slot Cable Door Reset Button To reset to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset button for more than 10 seconds while the PowerBeam is already powered on. Alternatively, the PowerBeam may be reset remotely via a Reset button located on the bottom of the Gigabit PoE adapter.
LEDs Signal In airOS®, you can modify the wireless signal strength threshold values for each LED on the Wireless tab under Signal LED Thresholds. The default values are shown below: LED will light blue when the wireless signal strength is equal to or above -65 dBm. LED will light blue when the wireless signal strength is equal to or above -73 dBm. LED will light blue when the wireless signal strength is equal to or above -80 dBm.
Application Examples The PowerBeam mounted outdoors with the Dish Reflector installed provides directional outdoor coverage (gain is reflector‑dependent). The PowerBeam mounted outdoors without the Dish Reflector installed provides outdoor-to-indoor coverage using the 3 dBi Antenna Feed only. Installation Requirements • 13 mm wrench • 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.
Installation 1. Align and insert the tabs of the Mounting Bracket into the slots of the Reflector. Rotate the Mounting Bracket counterclockwise until the alignment holes in the dish and bracket align with each other. 2. For added support in high-wind environments, insert four Screws with Washers into the holes of the Reflector and Mounting Bracket, and secure each screw with a Washer and a Nylon Insert Lock Nut.
3. Line up the Alignment Pins of the Rear Housing with the alignment holes of the Mounting Bracket. Push the Rear Housing into the Mounting Bracket. 4. View the Reflector from the front. Ensure that the three hooks (indicated below) of the Rear Housing are fully engaged with the inner wall of the Reflector and locked into place. Important: Before proceeding, lightly pull the Rear Housing to confirm that it is locked into place.
5. Push in the sides of the Cable Door and detach it from the Rear Housing. 6. Attach the Antenna Feed. a. Insert the Antenna Feed into the Rear Housing, and push until it locks into place with a click. b. Lightly pull the Antenna Feed to ensure that it is locked into place and the Release Button is fully engaged.
7. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet Port of the Antenna Feed. Then re-attach the Cable Door. 8. Attach the Pole Clamps to the Adjustment Bracket. a. Hold the Adjustment Bracket with its clamps facing you and the Elevation Indicators towards the top. b. Insert the Carriage Bolts through the holes of the Adjustment Bracket. c. Place the Pole Clamps on the bolts on one side of the bracket by sliding the hole of the clamp over the bolt. d. Place one Flange Nut on each bolt.
9. Mount the Adjustment Bracket on the pole and secure it. a. Place the Adjustment Bracket against the pole. b. Slide the slot of each Pole Clamp over each Carriage Bolt. c. Tighten the Flange Nuts on the bolts to 25 N-m to secure the Adjustment Bracket to the pole. 25 N-m 25 N-m Note: The mounting assembly can accommodate a Ø 40 - 80 mm pole.
10. Insert the Pivot Pins on the inside of the Adjustment Bracket into the Mounting Bracket Slots.
11. Secure the Adjustment Bracket to the Mounting Bracket using the four Hex Bolts with Washers.
12. Align the arrows on the bottoms of the Radome and Reflector so the Drain Holes on the Radome point downward. Snap the Radome onto the Reflector. 13. Adjust the elevation angle. a. Loosen the four Hex Bolts on both sides of the PowerBeam. b. Pivot the PowerBeam until the Elevation Indicator shows the desired elevation angle. c. Tighten the four Hex Bolts.
. Connect the Ethernet cable from the PowerBeam’s Ethernet port to the POE port of the Gigabit PoE adapter. 15. Connect an Ethernet cable from your LAN to the adapter’s LAN port. 16. Connect the Power Cord to the adapter’s power port. Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a power outlet. Mounting the PoE Adapter (Optional) 1. Remove the PoE Mounting Bracket from the adapter, place the bracket at the desired location, and mark the two holes. 2.
Accessing airOS Verify connectivity in the airOS Configuration Interface. 1. Make sure that your host system is connected via Ethernet to the PowerBeam. 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. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac). 4. The login screen will appear. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Select your Country and Language.
