Hardware Connection Site Consideration • Mounting Height Ensure a clear line of sight between the wireless devices for optimum performance. An elevated location is recommended as obstacles like trees, buildings and large steel structures will weaken the wireless signal. See ‘Q2’ in ‘FAQ’ for details about how to calculate the minimum mounting height of the devices. - Page 8 Install the CPE devices and make sure that they point towards the devices that will receive the signal. You can orient the devices with the help of Google Maps, GPS and some landmarks. The horizontal bandwidth of CPE605/CPE710 is 7°. shenzhen...

Q1. How to restore the CPE to its factory default settings? Method 1: With the CPE powered on, press and hold the RESET button on the CPE for about 5 seconds. RESET Button: Press & hold for about 5 seconds Method 2: With the CPE powered on, press and hold the Remote Reset button on the passive PoE adapter for about 5 seconds. - Page 25 Q2. How to calculate the minimum mounting height of the devices? In order to maximize the received signal strength of the devices, installers need to minimize the effect of the out-of-phase signals, which is caused by obstacles in the path between the transmitter and the receiver.
- Page 26 Q3. What is Pharos MAXtream? Pharos MAXtream is a proprietary protocol developed on the basis of Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) by TP-Link. The MAXtream technology has the following advantages: • Eliminates hidden node collisions and improves channel efficiency. • Lower latency, higher throughput, larger network capacity and more stability.
- Page 27 indicates less radio noise. Here, we use the figure below as an example. 3. When choosing channel/frequency, you should avoid the spectrum with large radio noise. In this example, the recommended channel/ frequency is 112/5560 MHz.
