1 Introduction

This Canopy 400 Series OFDM AP and SM Supplement to the Canopy System Release 8 User
Guide includes product description, planning, configuration, and installation information specific to
the Canopy 400 Series products. It should be especially useful for the experienced Canopy

and assumes significant experience with general Canopy equipment and operation.
This supplemental guide is intended to be used along with the Canopy System Release 8 User
