7.3 A Cost-Effective Wireless Solution to Extend and Expand an Existing Network

he following list describes the solutions that the ENH700E%> offers as a flexible, robust and powerful Outdoor Access +oint or Bridge:

- Difficult-to-Wire Environments - In outdoor environments sometimes extending a network by laying Ethernet or fiber cabling is either cost prohibitive or physically not possible. >he ENH700E%>, enables the extension of an existing company network via the propagation of a wireless signal rather than cable as a much more cost-effective alternative.

- Temporary Workgroups – Creating a wired network infrastructure for a temporary outdoor worksite/workgroup or special event venue may not be a cost- or time-efficient solution and may present deployment issues if trenches for cabling cannot be dug in existing landscaping. >he ENH700E%> enables companies, in a matter of minutes, to create an outdoor wireless network that can provide Internet access (based on an existing broadband connection) or access to the company’s networked resources like printers, hard drives and databases.

- Wireless Extensions of Ethernet Networks – >he range of a wired network is typically limited within the confines of a single building. In situations where there are multiple buildings on a campus or another company building very remote from the main building then a Wireless Access +oint or Bridge deployment using the ENH700E%> provides a very cost-effective way to cover large outdoor areas around a company office or even connect to other company buildings.

- Expanding User Capacity and Connectivity To Additional Devices – >he ENH700E%> is designed specifically to extend and expand existing company networks. Its high transmit power capability and enhanced receive sensitivity results in the ability for a company to connect to more employees, company guests or other wireless clients. >he ENH700E%>’s additional 5GHz frequency radio can be act as a separate A+ or bridge to either provide 5GHz wireless access to 5GHz clients; Or connect to other 5GHz devices to provide backhaul service.

- Redundancy – In situations where a portion of an existing wired network may fail, the ENH700E%> offers a measure of stability and redundancy to other employees can continue to communicate with one another or access mission critical databases.

2 Installation and Setup

his chapter will describe how to assemble and set up the ENH700EX>. It will also cover where to place the ENH700EX> to allow for maximum range and signal.

2.1 Installation Considerations

here are many considerations on where to place the ENH700E%>. >he followings are the main considerations on where to mount the device. >he first consideration is available line of sight to the area or building that you wish to provide wireless network connectivity. Other buildings, mountains, hills, trees, thick brush can all attenuate the or inhibit the wireless signal.

he second consideration is distance. You should calculate the EIR+ (Effective Isotropic Radiated +ower) correctly to properly configure the ENH700E%> using this calculation for the distance you intend to build the wireless link (see Glossary at the end of this manual for the EIR+ formula). Don't place multiple ENH700E%>’s too far away from one another since the A+ uses default Omni directional (not directional) antennas. If you plan to have a longer range connection, you can consider identically-matching directional antennas to connect to the ENH700E%> on both transmit and receiving ends.

2.2 Assembling the EN>700EXT

Carefully remove the ENH700E%> unit, the Omni 5dBi and 2.4dBi Antennas(two each), E+E-48GR +oE Injector, and power adaptor. As mentioned earlier in this Manual, the Ethernet cables are required and not provided within the ENH700E%> package.

  1. Install all 4 antennas onto the ENH700E%> by screwing them toward the ENH700E%> until the threads on the screw are not visible.

2.

ENGENIUS ENH700EXT - Assembling the EN&gt;700EXT - 1

Ensure that all antennas screw on straight. Failure to do so may damage the ENH700E%> antenna connectors

  1. Insert a shielded Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 port on the ENH700E%>. You need to consider the length of this cable based on the distance from where the +oE injector is which in a weather protected place such as indoor or a water tight box to the ENH700E%>. Use high quality cable is highly recommended.

  2. Insert the other end of the Ethernet cable to the E+E-48GR +oE Injector on the port labeled AP9Bridge.

  3. ake a second Ethernet cable and connect it to the Network port of the E+E-48GR +oE Injector.

  4. Insert the other end of the second Ethernet cable into the Ethernet controller of the computer system in which the ENH700E%> will be set up.

  5. +lug the power cord of the power adapter into the E+E-48GR port labeled -C [N.
  6. +lug the power adaptor into the power outlet.

3.3 WDS Mode

In WD< (Wireless Distribution connects multiple networks wirelessly without being just an Access +oint. It maximizes range of service but at a loss of throughput speeds.

1) WD< with Access +oint – Expands the WD< through the use of Access +oints. Clients can connect to the device as a normal Access +oint.
2) WD< <tation – Expands the WD< by receiving a wireless signal/service and sharing through the Ethernet port.

In the WD< Bridge mode, the ENH700E%> can wirelessly connect different LANs (Local Area Networks) by applying a device's MAC address to its associated security settings as prescribed by the network administrator. WD< Bridge mode can bridge up to four local wired networks together as one logical network. Every computer on this logical network can see each other, sharing files as if they are in the same location. With high output power and MIMO antenna technology, the connection distance can extend beyond 1000 feet with great performance, assuming the antennae are within line of sight. >he WD< bridge network is a MAC-based network that provides transparent bridging

Appendix D - #lossary

Here is a selection of terms and definitions that may help reader to be more familiar with WLAN technologies and understand the user manual better.

Ad >oc Network

A short-term WLAN framework created between two or more WLAN adapters, without going

through an Access +oint. An ad hoc network lets computers send data directly to and from one another. For an ad hoc network to work, each computer on the network needs a WLAN card installed configured for Ad Hoc mode.

Access point

A base station in a WLAN that acts as a central transmitter of data throughput and receiver of WLAN radio signals.

Antenna

A device that sends and receives radio-frequency (RF) signals. Often camouflaged on existing buildings, trees, water towers or other tall structures, the size and shape of antennas are generally determined by the frequency of the signal they manage.

Authentication

A process that verifies the identity of a wireless device or end-user. A common form of authentication is to verify identities by checking a user name and password to allow network access.

Backbone

A high-speed line or series of connections that form a major pathway within a network.

Bandwidth

he part of the frequency spectrum required to transmit desired information. Each radio channel has a center frequency and additional frequencies above and below this carrier frequency that carry the transmitted information. >he range of frequencies from the lowest to the highest used is called the bandwidth.

Bridge

A wireless device that connects multiple networks that are physically separate or use different media, but which use similar standards.

Bridge Mode

An Access +ointy in bridge mode can operate as a WLAN bridge that connects two wired network segments. >he peer device also must be in bridge mode. >his wireless bridge connection is equivalent to a Wireless Distribution <ystem (WD<).

C>AP

Challenge Handshake Authentication +rotocol. An alternative protocol that uses a challenge/response technique instead of sending passwords over the wire.

Collision

Interference resulting from two network devices sending data at the same time. >he network detects the collision of the two transmitted packets and discards both of them.

Coverage

he region within which a paging receiver can reliably receive the transmission of paging signals.

Coverage Area

he geographical area that can be served by a mobile communications network or system.

Coverage >ole

An area within the radio coverage footprint of a wireless system where the RF signal level is below the design threshold. +physical obstructions such as buildings, foliage, hills, tunnels, and indoor parking garages are usually the cause of coverage holes.

Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)

A common technique for detecting data transmission errors.

Dynamic >ost Configuration Protocol (D>CP)

A protocol that assigns temporary I+ addresses automatically to client stations logging onto an I+ network, so the I+ addresses do not have to be assigned manually. >he ENH210E%> contains an internal DHC+ server that automatically allocates I+ address using a user-defined range of I+ addresses.

Dead Spot

An area within the coverage area of a WLAN where there is no coverage or transmission falling off. Electronic interference or physical barriers such as hills, tunnels, and indoor parking garages are usually the cause of dead spots. <ee also coverage area.

802.11

A category of WLAN standards defined by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

802.11a

An IEEE standard for WLANs that operate at 5 GHz, with data rates up to 54 Mbps.

802.11n

An IEEE standard for WLANs that operates at 2.4 GHz, with 5GHz band as option and data rate of 300 Mbps. >he new standard also raises the encryption bar to W+A2. >he 40 H> option can be added to increase the data rate.

Encryption

ranslates data into a secret code to achieve data security. >o read an encrypted file, you must have a secret key or password for decryption. Unencrypted data is referred to as plain text; encrypted data is referred to as cipher text

&SS [D

he unique identifier for an E<<. All Access +oints and their associated wireless stations in the same group must have the same E<<ID.

Footprint

Geographical areas where an entity is licensed to broadcast its signal.

#ateway

A computer system or other device that acts as a translator between two systems that use different communication protocols, data formatting structures, languages, and/or architecture.

>T mode

In the 802.11n system, two new formats, called High >hroughput (H>), are defined for the +hysical Layer, Mixed Mode, and Green Field. If a system runs 40 H>, two adjacent 20 MHz channels are used. >he larger 40 MHz bandwidth can provide better transmit quality and speed.

Keys

Like passwords, keys open (decrypt) and close (encrypt) messages. While many encryption algorithms are commonly known and public, the key must be kept secret.

Local-Area Network 2LAN3

A small data network covering a limited area, such as a building or group of buildings. Most LANs connect workstations or personal computers. LANs let many users share devices such as printers as well as data. LANs also facilitate communication through e-mail or chat sessions.

Media Access Control 2MAC3 Address

Address associated with every hardware device on the network. Every 802.11 wireless device has its own specific MAC address. >his unique identifier is hard-coded into the device and can be used to provide security for WLANs. When a network uses a MAC table, only the 802.11 radios that have their MAC addresses added to that network's MAC table can access the network.

Network Address Translation 2NAT3

An Internet standard that lets a LAN use one set of I+ addresses for internal traffic and a second set of addresses for external traffic.

Network Time Protocol 2NTP3

A protocol that lets devices synchronize their time with a time server. N>+ uses >C+ or UD+ port 123 by default.

Passphrase

A text string that automatically generates WE+ keys on wireless client adapters.

Power 'ver &thernet 2Po&3

A +oE provides power to +oE-enabled devices using an 8-pin CA> 5 Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for a power source.

Preamble

< synchronizes transmissions in a WLAN. >he preamble type defines the length of the Cyclic Redundancy Check block for communication between a device and roaming wireless stations.

Protected &xtensible Authentication Protocol 2P&AP3

Authentication protocol of IEEE 802.1x used to send authentication data and passwords over 802.11 WLANs.

Quality of Service 2QoS3

A network's ability to deliver data with minimum delay. Qo< also refers to the networking methods used to provide bandwidth for real-time multimedia applications.

Remote Authentication Dial-[n User Service 2RAD[US3

Networking protocol that provides centralized authentication, authorization, and accounting management for computers to connect and use a network service. Because of its broad support and ubiquitous nature, the RADIU< protocol is often used by I<+s and enterprises to manage access to the Internet or internal networks, WLANs, and integrated e-mail services.

Service Set [identifier 2SS[D3

Name of a WLAN. All wireless devices on a WLAN must use the same <<ID to communicate with each other.

Simple Network Management Protocol 2SNMP3

An Internet-standard protocol for managing devices on I+ networks.

Snooping

+assively watching a network for data, such as passwords, that can be used to benefit a hacker.

Temporal Key [ntegrity Protocol 2TK[P3

An encryption protocol that uses 128-bit keys. Keys are dynamically generated and distributed by the authentication server. >KI+ regularly changes and rotates encryption keys, with an encryption key never being used twice.

Transmission Control Protocol9[nternet Protocol 2TCP9[P3

A protocol that allows communications over and between networks. >C+/I+ is the basis for Internet communications.

Weighted Fair Queuing 2WFQ3

WFQ services queues are based on priority and queue weight. Queues with larger weights get more service than queues with smaller weights. >his highly efficient queuing mechanism divides available bandwidth across different traffic queues.

Wired & equivalent Privacy 2W&P3

<security protocol that provides a WLAN with a level of security and privacy comparable to that of a wired LAN. WE+ encrypts data sent between wired and WLANs to keep transmissions private.

Wireless Local-Area Network 2WLAN3

WLANs use RF technology to send and receive data wirelessly in a certain area. >his lets users in a small zone send data and share resources such as printers without using cables to physically connect each computer.

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA 3

A subset of the IEEE 802.11i standard. W+A applies IEEE 802.1x and Extensible Authentication +rotocol (EA+) to authenticate wireless clients using an external RADIU< database. W+A uses >emporal Key Integrity +rotocol (>KI+), Message Integrity Check (MIC), and IEEE 802.1x to encrypt data. <ee also W+A-++K (W+A -+re-<hared Key).

Wi-Fi MultiMedia (WMM3

+art of the IEEE 802.11e Qo< enhancement to the Wi-Fi standard that ensures quality of service for multimedia applications in WLANs.

Wireless Client Supplicants

<software that runs on an operating system, instructing the wireless client how to use W+A.

WPA -Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK3

W+A-+<K requires a single (identical) password entered into each Access +oint, wireless gateway, and wireless client. A client is granted access to a WLAN if the passwords match.

WPA2

A wireless security standard that defines stronger encryption, authentication, and key management than W+A. It includes two data encryption algorithms, >emporal Key Integrity +rotocol (>KI+) and Advanced Encryption <standard (AE<), in the Counter mode with Cipher block chaining Message authentication Code +rotocol (CCM+).

Wireless Distribution System (WDS3

A technology that lets Access +oints communicate with one another to extend the range of a WLAN.
