Introduction
The MWS100 is intended for mobile wireless broadband applications and is
desi ned for indoor, outdoor and in-vehicle applications. The MWS100 is a
member of the Strix Access/One
®
Ed e product family, and interoperates with
Strix Access/One
®
Mesh Nodes. Within a re ion where Strix Access/One
®
Mesh
Nodes are deployed, the MWS100 provides broadband data access and
seamless roamin between nodes, even at hi h vehicle speeds.
The MWS100 contains two 802.11-type radios. One is an 802.11 radio that
operates in the 2.4 GHz band. The other is an 802.11a radio that operates in
either the 5 GHz band or the 4.9 GHz U.S. Public Safety band. One of these
radios will operate as a Wireless Station (STA) and be used to connect wirelessly
to s Strix Access/One
®
Mesh Network. The other radio may optionally be used as
a Wireless Access Point (AP). An Ethernet connector is also provided for
connection to other devices.
The MWS100 operates as a brid e between its Station Radio, Access Point
Radio, and Ethernet Port. This brid in function is accomplished usin Layer 2
Network Address Translation (L2NAT). The purpose for this is to allow multiple
client devices, each with a unique IP address, to be supported by a sin le
wireless association with the Access/One® Mesh Network.
Note: Different MWS100 models exist for different regions
and regulatory domains Availability of specific bands,
channels within those bands, and operating modes varies
depending upon the specific MWS100 model

Installation
Note: The MWS100 is desi ned for professional installation. Failure to comply
fully with these instructions may void the MWS100 warranty and/or violate local
safety or radio re ulations.
1.
Select a mountin location for the MWS100. The MWS100 is desi ned for
indoor, outdoor and in-vehicle applications. Mount the MWS100 usin the
chassis mountin holes and hardware suitable for the particular installation.
Note: In the U.S. the 5150-5250MHz band is only available for indoor applications. It is the
responsibility of the installer to confi ure the MWS100 to use this band only when it is
installed indoor.
2. Select antennas with ain specifications accordin to the table below.
Note: The maximum allowable power for each antenna type is noted in the last column. The
installer must set the power correctly for the chosen antennas.

3. Mount the selected antennas securely followin all antenna manufacturer
instructions and recommendations. Provide a suitable len th of LMR-200
type antenna cable between each antenna and the MWS100. If usin only
one antenna, connect it to the port labeled “MAIN”. Connect a second
antenna to the port labeled “AUX”.

4. Usin the supplied fused power cable, connect the BLACK wire to the
system round and then attach the RED wire to the positive DC supply. The
MWS100 is desi ned to operate from a minimum of 11 VDC* to a maximum
of 52 VDC and a maximum current draw of 2 A.
* A low-voltage cut-off circuit will automatically power
down when the DC voltage falls below 10 5 VDC
Operation will be restored once the DC voltage rises
above 11 5 VDC
The MWS100 may also be powered over its Ethernet
port (LAN) by a PoE power injector capable of
sourcing 16 W
5. Provide an Ethernet cable for connectin the MWS100 to a computer or
router.
6. Attach the supplied fused power cable to the PWR connector on the
MWS100 rear panel.

Wireless Station Con iguration
MWS100 confi uration screens may be accessed by connectin its LAN port to a
computer runnin Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 7. The default address of
http://169.254.1.250 may be used. The username for confi uration is “Admin” (without
the quotes). The default password is “Admin” (also without quotes).
Important: After changing any parameter on any
configuration screen, an “Update” button will appear near
the upper-right corner of the screen This must be pressed
for any change to take effect Some changes require that
the MWS100 be re-booted This is indicated by the
appearance of a “Reboot” button, which must be pressed
for the change to take effect
The first step to confi ure an MWS100 is to select which radio will be used as a Wireless
Station to connect to the Strix Access/One® mesh network. The 11a radio is the default
for this. This may be chan ed from the “Confi ure WiFi General” screen.
Press the “Update” button if Station Radio selection is chan ed, followed by the “Reboot”
button.

The next step is to confi ure the selected Station radio to connect to the network. This is
performed on the “Confi ure Wi-Fi Station Confi uration” screen. The default AP
Selection Method is “SSID” and is correct for most applications. Enter the SSID used by
the network for MWS100 applications, and then select the Security Mode and Security
Keys associated with that SSID. This information should be available from the operator
of the Strix Access/One® Mesh network.
After settin the Station radio parameters, press the “Update” button.
