1.1 Introduction
This user manual covers the operation of the Altum
AC wireless radio user interface. The radio can be
operated as a point‐to‐point (PtP) system, a point to

GHz Wifi hotspot. The radio settings and mode of
operation are controlled with a web based user
interface that is run from any standard web browser.
This manual is organized the same way as presented
on the radio web interface. After the Login and

the radio to the PoE port of the PoE Injector
using a Cat5e Ethernet cable. Plug the PoE into
the AC power source. The rightmost LED on
the radio should illuminate, indicating the unit
is booting up.
