The products come in two options: the basic DWL-1800B (BU) and DWL-1800R (RB) units
come with a high gain flat antenna integrated on the front cover of the Outdoor unit. In this
model, the front cover also functions as a protective sun cover.
The installation process should follow these general steps:
1.
Select an appropriate locations for the Outdoor unit, the antenna (if using an external
antenna) and the Indoor unit.
2.
Connect a ground cable between the Outdoor unit and an appropriate grounding point.
3.
Remove the service box assembly of the Outdoor unit, unscrew the top nut and route the
indoor-outdoor cable through the top nut and the service box. Assemble an RJ-45
connector on the cable, connect it to the Ethernet connector, replace the service box and
tighten the nut. Make sure that the external jack of the cable is well inside the service
box to guarantee a good sealing. Route the cable to the location selected for the Indoor
unit.

Outdoor Cable
The Indoor-to-Outdoor cable provides
pin-to-pin connection on both sides.
It is supplied open-ended, to allow the
installer to conveniently route the cable
through the service box of the Outdoor
unit and through a wall into the building.
The following diagram shows the wire
pair connections required for the Indoor-
to-Outdoor cable.
4.
Mount the Indoor unit. Assemble an RJ-45 connector with a protective cover on the
indoor side of the Indoor-to-Outdoor cable and connect it to the Indoor unit's Radio
port. Prepare the power cable (if supplied open ended) and use it to connect the Indoor
unit to the AC mains.

The Indoor unit should be connected to the power source only after it has been
