1.0 Introduction

The NetWave® NW7[E]/M industrially hardened high throughput (HT) wireless Ethernet

transmission link from ComNet can be configured through the embedded User Interface as a

Client or as an Access Point. This point-to-multipoint model allows multiple Ethernet endpoints

to be connected to a central Access Point. Up to 15 endpoints can be linked to a central access

point. The NW7/M and NW7E/M support up to 240 Mbps throughput using MIMO technology.

An easy to read LED array displays unit operational status along with received signal strength

ensuring optimal installation and operation. The units can be powered by an 802.3af/at PoE

Compliant device or through an optional Midspan Power Injector. The NW7/M is FCC certified and

the NW7E/M is ETSI, DFS and TPC certified.

This user manual is a guide for the NetWave NW7[E]/M wireless Ethernet device as well as the

NWK7[E]/M preconfigured kits. ComNet NetWave Wireless offers OpenWRT with the most

advanced Qualcomm Atheros 10.1.x wireless drivers. NetWave now includes a new user-friendly

LuCI web interface for configuring the device. OpenWRT is an extensible GNU/Linux distribution

for embedded devices. It is built from the ground up to be a full-featured, easily modifiable

operating system. It is powered by a Linux kernel that's more recent than most other distributions.

LuCI is a free, clean, extensible and easily maintainable web user interface for embedded devices.

It has high performance, small installation size, fast runtimes, and good maintainability. The units

come configured for either point to point or point to multipoint applications.

This manual contains detailed operational and configuration information not covered in the quick

start guides.

This guide applies to the following models:

NW7/M - Industrial Multipoint, FCC Version, User Configurable

NW7E/M - Industrial Multipoint, ETSI Version, User Configurable

NWK7/M - Industrial Multipoint Kit, FCC Version (Includes NWK7/M_AP and NWK7/M_CL)

2.0 Point to Multi-Point

These individual units allow the user to configure for either multipoint access point or client operation.

There is a MAC address lock feature that can be enabled through the user interface but is not enabled

by default. The NW7[E]/M includes a 16dBi 30° internal antenna and there is an optional 8dBi 70°

internal antenna. See the ComNet website for the latest information regarding antenna support.

Preconfigured NWK kits do not support point-to-multipoint topologies.

4.0 Cabling Requirements

Shielded CAT 5 or better should be used for all out of plant Ethernet connection and should

be properly grounded through the PoE AC ground. Industrial grade shielded Ethernet cable is

recommended to help prevent ESD damage commonly experienced with outdoor installations.

5.0 Hardware Installation

5.1 Outdoor Ethernet Gland Installation

There will be at least one cable gland included with each outdoor enclosure. Below is an image of

the individual parts of the gland with an Ethernet cable routed through.

Note: The split rubber washer allows a pre-terminated Ethernet cable to be used.

Once the cable has been routed through the weather connection, and the RJ45 connection has

been made, screw in the gland into the housing making sure it is tight enough for a water tight

seal. Push the split rubber gasket into place and loosely screw the cap that goes over the rubber

washer.

Once the gland is tight in the housing, tighten the outer nut/cap making sure the rubber seal

squeezes and seals the Ethernet cable to the gland as shown below.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL NW7[E]/M

TECH SUPPORT: 1.888.678.9427

Connect one end of an RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the LAN OUT port of the Power Injection

Module (PIM) and the other end to LAN of the access point – as sown below.

Note: Maximum length of the RJ-45 CAT5 cable is 90 meters.

Connect the RJ-45 Ethernet cable attached to the PIM to a network device, such as a switch or

to the configuration PC. Then plug the power adaptor to an AC power outlet and power plug

into the socket of the PIM – as shown in the diagram below.

Note: DC Passive PoE input for the NW7[E]/M and NWK7[E]/M is 48 VDC.

A. Connect one end of an RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the OUT

port of the Power Injection Module (PIM) and the other end

to LAN of the access point.

Maximum length of the RJ-45 CAT5 cable is 100 meters.*

B. Connect the RJ-45 Ethernet cable attached to the PIM to a

network device, such as to a switch or to the PC you will use

to configure the access point.

C. Connect the power adaptor to the main electrical supply

and the power plug into the socket of the PIM.

PoE power input: Passive PoE (range 42 to 56 VDC).

The unit can also be powered by a suitable IEEE 802.3af/at

PSE device such as a PoE switch or injector.

D. A Drip Loop is recommended as additional precaution

against moisture entering the Access Point housing.

* Up to 200mW radio. For higher power radio upgrade to higher rating

power adapter.
