The AU-EZ Access Unit
The Access Unit provides all the functionality necessary to communicate with the
Subscriber Units and to connect to the backbone of the Service Provider.
The standalone AU-EZ Access Unit includes the following components:
Indoor Unit (IDU)
Outdoor Unit (ODU)
Antenna
The IDU connects to the network through a standard IEEE 802.3 Ethernet
10/100BaseT (RJ 45) interfaces and is powered from the 110/240 VAC mains.
The IDU is connected to the ODU via a Category 5 Ethernet cable. This cable
carries Ethernet traffic between the indoor and the outdoor units, and also
transfers power (54 VDC) and control from the indoor unit to the outdoor unit.
The ODU outdoor unit contains the processing and radio modules and connects
to an external antenna using a short RF cable.
The following antennas are available:

AU-Ant-5G-16-60
AU-Ant-5G-17-90
AU-Ant-5G-15-120
AU-Ant-5.4G-8-Omni
AU-Ant-5.8G-8-Omni
* In certain countries the AU-EZ may be certified only with specific antenna(s).
