Status This shows the current wireless connectivity of the device, similar to the "Status Tab".

Country Code Each country has their own power level and frequency regulations. To ensure the device operates under the necessary regulatory compliance rules, you must select the country where your device will be used. The IEEE 802.11 mode, channel and frequency settings, and output power limits will be tuned according to the regulations of the selected country.

Wireless Profile Select to use 802.11ac or 802.11n. The choice of 802.11n is a combination of 802.11a and 802.11n and operates in the 5 GHz frequency band. The 802.11ac is the latest standard that offers even higher data rates and it also operates in the 5 GHz frequency band.

Channel Spectrum Width Displays the spectral width of the radio channel. You can use this option to control the bandwidth consumed by your link. Using higher Channel width increases throughput. Using lower Channel width reduces throughput.

Channel widths available are 5 MHz, 10 MHz, 20 MHz, and 40 MHz

When the 802.11ac wireless standard is used, the 80 MHz band can be selected. An 80 MHz band can carry twice the amount of data of a 40 MHz band.

Channel – Frequency The default, Auto, allows the device to automatically select the frequency. You can specify a frequency from the drop-down list. The frequency range available depends on the country you select in Country Code. Some countries have DFS regulations which may affect and delay the device when attempting to establish a connection. It can take up to 30 minutes to connect.

Background ACS Scan / ACS Scan Interval This will allow the device to automatically scan and switch to a better channel after a period of time when no client is connected. Default time for the scan is every 60 seconds.

ACS provides an easy way to optimise channel arrangement. It provides an optimal solution only if it is used on all APs in a site. Using ACS on a single AP provides a useful but sub-optimal solution. Once an AP has selected a channel, it remains operating on that channel until the user changes the channel or it scans again (after a reboot). The best way to make the AP always choose the best channel is to enable Dynamic Channel Selection (see below)

Channel Blocking Check to enable. Depending on the availability of channels in the country selected, the operator can select which channels to be scanned. This allows the user to block certain channels if they wish.

Antenna Gain Represents the gain relative to an isotropic antenna. A higher antenna gain results in the transmit power more focused towards a certain direction. You can set this depending on the antenna you have, e.g. PICO 12dBi, MICRO 15dBi, LITE 18dBi, MAX 25dBi. When country code is set, the value of the antenna gain will be considered to limit the selectable transmit power, such that the EIRP limits of the country are satisfied.

Transmit Power The maximum transmit power displayed is determined by the country code and the maximum transmit power of the radio.

Outdoor Channels Limits the available channel frequency selections to 5500-5825 MHz if the country is in the European Union (EU). Based on the EU-Rule 2005/513/EC regulation, only this unlicensed frequency band is allowed for outdoor use.

For non-EU countries, Outdoor Channels option is not applicable.

Distance Optimization If checked the distance will be optimised and the values for Slot Time, ACK Timeout, CTS Timeout will be calculated automatically. To specify the distance value, uncheck the box and manually enter the value.

Distance (metres) Specifies the distance between the AP and the station if the previous option is unchecked. Min: 300, Max: 24000 (40MHz), 48000 (20MHz). This value should be set to slightly more than the physical distance between the AP and the farthest station.

Chainmask Selection Available selections are:

  • 1x1 Left Chain This will force the radio card to operate with 1 spatial stream on the left port of radio card only.
  • 1x1 Right Chain This will force the radio card to operate with 1 spatial stream on the right port of radio card only.
  • 2x2 Dual Chain This will enable the radio card to operate with 2 spatial streams on both radio card ports.

Beacon Interval This value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the router which carries the SSID, channel number and security protocols. We recommend using the default setting of 100. In poor reception areas you may turn this down to 50.

Adaptive Noise Immunity Check to enable. When enabled, it automatically adjusts the signal/noise level for best performance. In a low noise environment, it is recommended you turn off this function.

Dynamic Channel Selection This is a feature to monitor traffic and noise levels. If the noise levels exceed the threshold, the AP will disconnect any associated stations and move to a new channel. The stations are expected to re-associate with the AP on their own. Available selections are:

  • Look for CW Interference Use this feature to detect and avoid continuous wave (CW) interference.
  • Look for WLAN Interference Use this feature to detect and avoid wireless interference

Mode Displays the operating mode of the radio interface. The Pro Range supports four operating modes:

  • Station
  • Station WDS
  • Access Point
  • Access Point WDS

Station If you have a client device to connect to an AP, configure the client device as Station mode.

The SSID of the AP is used, and it forwards all the traffic to/from the network devices to the Ethernet interface. This mode translates all the packets that pass through to its own MAC address, thus resulting in a lack of transparency.

Station WDS This mode is used to create a transparent bridge and can be connected to a device running in Access Point WDS mode.

NOTE Multiple stations or Stations WDS can connect to an AP WDS.

Access Point If you have a single device to act as an AP, configure it as Access Point mode. The device functions as an AP that connects multiple client devices

Access Point WDS This mode connects to a device running Station WDS mode. It is used to create a transparent bridge.

In most cases, we recommend that you use WDS because it enables transparent Layer 2 traffic. The WDS protocol is not defined as a standard, so there may be compatibility issues between equipment from different vendors.

ESSID If the device is operating in Access Point or Access point WDS mode, specify the wireless network name or SSID (Service Set Identifier) used to identify your WLAN. All the client devices within range will receive broadcast messages from the AP advertising this SSID. If the device is operating in Station mode, specify the SSID of the AP the device is to connect to.

BSSID Sets the MAC address of the AP. This option is available for a device operating as a station. This is useful because there can be multiple APs with the same ESSID. Setting the MAC address would prevent the station from roaming to other APs.

Guard Interval This is the space between symbols being transmitted. The Guard Interval is there to eliminate inter-symbol interference. For long distance connections, select Long to give better performance.

Data Rate Data Rates consist of both the legacy rates and the MCS (Modulation Coding Scheme – Only for 802.11n) rates.

6 – 54Mbps are Legacy Rates

MCSO to MCS7 are 802.11n rates

The MCS settings have different rates depending on the Chainmask Selection (see above for Chainmask Selection) that is used.

Chainmask Selection
1x12x2
MCS013.5Mbps27Mbps
MCS127Mbps54Mbps
MCS240.5Mbps81Mbps
MCS354Mbps108Mbps
MCS481Mbps162Mbps
MCS5108Mbps216Mbps
MCS6121.5Mbps243Mbps
MCS7135Mbps300Mbps

When left on auto the data rate will follow an advanced rate algorithm that considers the amount of errors at that data rate and fine tunes to the best data rate it can use.

Hide SSID Once checked, this will disable advertising the SSID of the access point in broadcast messages to wireless stations. This option is only available in Access Point and Access Point WDS mode.

TxCCQ Watchdog check to enable. This will monitor the signal quality of the link and if it falls below a certain threshold the device will reboot.

WIRELESS SECURITY

Interface Configuration

General Setup Wireless Security MAC-Filter Advanced Settings Encryption WPA2-PSK Cipher Auto Key

All the wireless security settings are set under this section.

The operation of the Keys is the same for ALL the Wireless modes.

Security The Pro 95 range supports the following wireless security methods:

No Encryption If you want an open network without wireless security, select No Encryption.

WEP Open System WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is the oldest and least secure security algorithm.

WEP Shared Key WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) with slightly better authentication.

WPA-PSK WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) was developed as a stronger encryption method than WEP. This uses TKIP Temporal Key Integrity Protocol which uses RC4 encryption algorithm.

WPA2-PSK WPA2 was developed to strengthen wireless encryption security and is stronger than WEP and WPA. This is the most secure option. It uses the latest Wi-Fi encryption standard, and the latest AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption protocol.

WPA2-PSK AES+ As above but with 256bit encryption.

WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Mixed Mode This enables both WPA and WPA2 with both TKIP and AES. This provides maximum compatibility with any ancient devices you might have.

IEEE802.1X/WPA-EAP This will require the equipment to be authenticated via a RADIUS server. The RADIUS server must support EAP or be chained/proxied to one that does.

IEEE802.1X/WPA2-EAP This will require the equipment to be authenticated via a RADIUS server. The RADIUS server must support EAP or be chained/proxied to one that does.

WEP

Note: Operating with WEP security will limit AP to maximum wireless link speed of 54Mbps only.

ADVANCED SETTINGS

Interface Configuration

General Setup Wireless Security MAC-Filter Advanced Settings Multipoint Enhancement Mode Disabled Improves Multipoint performance Station Isolation Prevents station-to-station communication Maximum Stations 127 Minimum Stations RSSI 0 WMM Provides Quality of Service features Multicast Enhancement Translating Mode

Multipoint Enhancement Mode Check to improve multipoint performance and show the RTS Threshold option. Enabling this will set the RTS to 538.

RTS Threshold This value is set to 2346 as default, which is the maximum 802.11 packet size. We recommend leaving this setting for Point to Point links, however, for Multipoint setups we recommend setting the RTS Threshold lower (538). The AP device sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. The CTS contains a hold off time that prevents other clients from sending anything whilst the targeted client sends its data. Setting the RTS lower will improve the stability of a Multipoint setup.

Station Isolation When checked, it prevents station-to-station communication. When Station Isolation is disabled, wireless clients can communicate with one another normally by sending traffic through the AP. When Station Isolation is enabled, the AP blocks communication between wireless clients on the same AP.

Minimum Stations Specifies the maximum number of associated stations

Minimum Station RSSI When enabled, if the signal strength of any device connected to the AP falls below the value in this box, the AP will drop the connection.

WMM Provides Quality of Service (QoS) features. This is checked by default. Wireless

multimedia (WMM) enables the classification of the network traffic into 4 main types, voice, video, best effort, and background, in decreasing order of priority. Higher priority traffic has a higher transmission opportunity and would have to wait less time to transmit. As a result, an existing video stream would not be interrupted by additional background processes.

Multicast Enhancement Available selections are:

  • Selective Passthrough Use this feature when no multicast traffic is expected to cross the link aside from SSDP traffic (such as ONVIF) from AP to ST.
  • Tunnelling Mode Use this feature when multicast traffic is only required across the link from ST to AP.
  • Translating mode Use this feature to send out a unicast packet to each of the units on the ST side that are interested in multicast traffic for a particular address.

Multicast Enhancement is designed to limit the proliferation of multicast traffic on a network by only forwarding packets from an AP to an STA if the AP knows there is a unit interested in that traffic on the STA side of the link. All multicast traffic should be passed from an STA to an AP.

If no multicast traffic is expected to cross the link aside from SSDP traffic (such as ONVIF) from AP to STA, Selective Passthrough should be chosen for the Multicast Enhancement setting.

If multicast traffic is only required to travel across the link from STA to AP, Multicast Enhancement Mode should be set to Tunnelling Mode at both ends of a link.

In a situation where multicast traffic is required in both directions, say where a camera is producing a multicast stream and you wish to monitor this via ONVIF, both ends of the link should be set to Tunnelling Mode and an IGMP Querier should be present on the AP side of the network with a query interval of 2 minutes. The IGMP Querier ensures that all multicast capable devices on the local network inform the AP which multicast addresses they are interested in. Most managed switches should have the capability of being an IGMP Querier but in the case where no such switch exists on the network, it is possible to use an additional inexpensive managed switch to provide this functionality.

Multicast enhancement is only available on the Pro Range 95 models.

WARNINGS

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE REQUIREMENTS

The operation of this device in the 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz frequency range is restricted to indoor use. FCC regulations require this product to be used indoors while operating at 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference. However, the operation of this device in the 5.25 GHz to 5.35 GHz frequency range is allowed for both indoor and outdoor use. High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 GHz to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 GHz to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage to this device.

FCC Warning

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. No guarantee exists that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception (determined by turning the equipment off and on), the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

  • Reorient or relocate the radio/TV receiving antenna.
  • Increase the separation between the equipment and the radio/TV receiver.
  • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the radio/TV receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Modifications made to the product, unless expressly approved by SilverNet Limited, could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

RF Exposure Requirements

To ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, the antenna used for this device must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or radio transmitter. Installers and end-users must follow the installation instructions provided in this user guide.

CE Statement

The Pro Range 95 is intended to be used by suitably trained individuals or organisations that are familiar with the requirements of the R&TTE directive. In particular the client must ensure that appropriate antennas and transmit power levels are selected to ensure that all power limits are met. Hereby, SilverNet Limited declares that this device is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of the R&TTE Directive 1999/5/EC. However, the use of the following warning symbol

CE!

Means that this equipment is subject to restrictions of use in certain countries and selection of the correct country of operation (country code) will ensure that the device operates only on the frequencies permissible within that country. It is also the operator's responsibility to ensure that appropriate licenses have been sought when operating on licensed frequencies, for example UK Band C, 5725-5850MHz.

In the UK, all radios operate under the control of Ofcom. Radio use in the 2.4 & 5GHz bands are deemed to be Licence Exempt with the exception of Band C. Band C (5.725 to 5.825GHz) requires registration with Ofcom under a light licensing scheme. While this band is still effectively licence exempt, Ofcom wants to keep a register of all FWA links and charges a small fee. Any user wishing to set up an outdoor link for FWA needs to apply to Ofcom for a site license; the licence is not hard to obtain and is only £50 which includes registration of up to 50 terminals. For every terminal beyond 50 you should add £1 to the cost of your licence.

Further information on the legal implications of Band C usage can be found on the Ofcom website.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you are having problems with your links, then please check the following before calling our support team.

Line of Sight - The radios work best when they have line-of-sight. If the radios do not have line-of-sight, then you will get a very poor signal or no signal at all.

Alignment - If the radios are not aligned correctly the signal quality of the radios will suffer and you may not receive the throughput you require. Run SilverView and use the data test tool.

Power - If the units are not powering on then you will need to test the Ethernet cable and re-terminate it if required. We recommend outdoor shielded grade cable for all installations. Please also check that the PSU is plugged in and turned on.

Interference - Our radios use auto-channel select and should avoid interferences as best as possible. Rebooting the radios will allow a re-scan. If you are experiencing interference problems when using the radios, try setting them on a static channel. Try each channel until you find one that gives you a better signal. Use SilverView and run a data test.

WARRANTY

The Pro Range 95 comes with a 2 year warranty as standard. For full terms and conditions of warranty please go to www.silvernet.com/terms-and-conditions/
