Notice before installation

Choose a solid and safe place (Wall or Pole) for CPE installation

1. Choose the best location of the house and the orientation of the CPE to get

the strongest signal reception from base station.

2. The ambient temperature for E500A and E500P series must be within:

E500A series: -10°C to 55°C

E500P series: -40°C to 55°C

NOTE

To have better reception, there are few things you could considerate before

installation. Please see “Important Installation Considerations” on page 8 for

more details.

Prepare two Ethernet cables

Be sure that one of the cables used is an outdoor grade CAT 5e (or above)

Ethernet cable type and the length of the cables are adequate to reach the

location of the CPE and indoor PPoE are.

Prepare wrenches

Prepare two adjustable wrenches or four combination wrenches. (size: 13mm x 2,

8mm x 1, and 19mm x 1)

Important Installation

Considerations

Before installing the outdoor CPE, consider the appropriate location, clearance,

and device orientation.

Location and Cable wiring

1. Consult your operator to find the best location and angle for getting the

strongest signal from the base station.

2. Do a walking test around the house to find the best spot with the strongest

signal if you don’t obtain related information from operator.

3. Mount the CPE at the highest possible location with a clear view of the base

station signal source. Buildings or other obstructions will affect the quality of

the signal you receive.

4. Keep a distance as possible from other devices that may cause interference.

5. Check if you can route the cable through the available ventilation holes to

avoid unnecessary drilling and waterproofing the wall.

6. Disconnect the power cord first before mounting the CPE. Otherwise this may

result in personal injury due to electric shock.

LTE Outdoor CPE

EN-9

Mounting

1. Choose a solid wall/ground to mount the CPE.

2. Mount on a wall/pole that can sustain the CPE dimensions and weight.

3. Mount upright on a vertical surface.

Position Adjustment

1. The CPE must be directed towards the nearest base station. By pointing the

CPE in the proper direction ensures that you receive the strongest signal.

2. Fine tune the signal by adjusting the orientation horizontally or vertically to

increase the CPE signal strength.

3. To verify the signal strength level:

Check the LEDs on the front panel - more lighted LEDs indicates stronger

signal.

Access the web management and go to Basic Mode > Status > Mobile

Internet > Signal Quality to view the Rx signal strength.
