    Thank you for your purchase of this member of the 5.8 GHz Outdoor 100 Mbps family of wireless Ethernet radios. The AW58100HTA is a radio with dual omnidirectional antennas. It serves as an Access Point (master) in a point-to-multipoint network. The AW58100HTS is a radio with a dual flat panel high gain directional antenna.

    Activate the AW58100HTS units one at a time until they can be given distinct IP addresses. Step 1. Gather the parts: In addition to the AvaLAN radios and the accompanying AW-POE Power Over Ethernet Injectors and 12VDC power supplies, you will need at least 2 CAT5 cables and a PC with a LAN connection.

    It is important that the AW58100HTS antennas be pointed toward their Access Point AW58100HTA. Because the 3 dB beamwidth of the flat panel an- tennas is just 8°, careful aiming is very important − especially over long distances.
