Chapter 1. System Overview
1.1 Introduction
Airlink101® Wireless N/A 5GHz 200mW Outdoor Access Point, APO1200 / Wireless N/A 5GHz 200mW Outdoor Access
Point with 15dBi Patch Antenna, APO1215 is the point of connection to Wireless Outdoor Network for service provider
deploying last mile services to business or residential broadband subscribers. Network administrators can create multiple
subscriber service tiers using per-subscriber rate limiting features, and manage centrally. Airlink101® Outdoor AP utilizes
a 200mW output Tx Power connecting to the WiFi mesh or WDS infrastructure and provides the subscriber with an
Ethernet connection for a local access.
Airlink101® Outdoor AP can be used for nine different purposes in six different modes. In the Router AP mode, it can be
deployed as a gateway with wireless Access Point(AP) and provides WDS link for network extension. In the AP mode, it
can be deployed either as traditional fixed wireless Access Point, or combination of AP and WDS(AP+WDS). In the WDS
mode, it’s only used to expand or bridge Ethernet networks and deployed as a main base, relay based or remote base
station. In the CPE mode, it connects to Wireless Internet Service Provider’s (WISP) outdoor network via wireless WAN
gateway to access Internet. In the Client Bridge + Universal Repeater mode, it connects to Wireless Internet Service
Provider’s (WISP) outdoor network via wireless or wired bridge to access to Internet. In the CPE + AP mode, it connects
to Wireless Internet Service Provider’s(WISP) outdoor network via wireless WAN gateway to access Internet, and it also
can provide wireless clients associated via Access Point.
1. Router AP+WDS : It can be deployed as a gateway with wireless Access Point and provides WDS link for
network extension.
2. Access Point : It can be deployed as a traditional fixed wireless Access Point
3. Repeater : To expand wireless service by repeating prior AP
4. WDS : It can be used to expand Ethernet network via wireless WDS Link
5. AP+WDS : Not only to extend Ethernet network, but also provide wireless access to the expanded network
6. CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) : It is a wireless gateway with NAT and DHCP Server functions to
connects to Wireless Internet Service Provider's (WISP)
7. Client Bridge + Universal Repeater : It is a wireless repeater or bridge to connects to Wireless Internet Service
Provider's (WISP)
8. CPE+AP: It is a wireless repeater or gateway with NAT and DHCP Server functions to connects to Wireless
Internet Service Provider's (ISP)

1.2 System Concept
The APO1200/APO1215 is not only designed and used as traditional outdoor AP, but also with rich features tailored for
WISP applications. The two-level management capability and access control ease WISP and owners to maintain and
manage wireless network in a more controllable fashion. Main applications are listed as follows with illustration:
Wireless CPE for Multi Dwelling Unit/Multi Tenant Unit(MDU/MTU) complexes including apartments, dormitories, and
office complexes.
Outdoor Access Point for school campuses, enterprise campuses, or manufacture plants.
Indoor Access Point for hotels, factories, or warehouses where industrial grade devices are preferred.
Public hotspot operation for café, parks, convention centers, shopping malls, or airports.
Wireless coverage for indoor and outdoor grounds in private resorts, home yards, or gulf course communities.

1.3 Applications in Wireless Network
APO1200/APO1215 is a multiple mode system which can be configured either as a wireless gateway or an access point
as desired. It also can be used as a WDS link for Ethernet network expansion. This section depicts different applications
on Router AP Mode, AP Mode, WDS Mode, CPE Mode, Client Bridge + Universal Repeater Mode and CPE + AP
Mode.
Configuration on Router AP Mode (Gateway + Access Point + WDS)
ÎExample 1 : Router AP without WDS
9It can be deployed as a gateway with wireless Access Point
ÎExample 2 : Router AP with WDS
9It can be deployed as a gateway with wireless Access Point and provides WDS link for network extension.

Configuration in AP Mode (including Access Point + WDS)
An access point can be either a main, relay or remote base station. A main base station is typically connected to a
wired network via the Ethernet port. A relay base station relays data between main base stations and relay stations or
remote base stations with clients. A remote base station is the end point to accept connections from wireless clients
and pass data upwards to a network wirelessly.
ÎExample 1 : Access Point without WDS
9It can be deployed as a tradition fixed wireless Access Point
ÎExample 2 : Access Point with WDS
9It can be deployed as a tradition fixed wireless Access Point and provides WDS link to expand network
Configuration in WDS Mode (Pure WDS)
An access point can be either a main, relay or remote base station. A main base station is typically connected to a
wired network via the Ethernet port. A relay base station relays data between main base stations and relay stations or
remote base stations with clients. A remote base station is the end point to accept connections from wireless clients
and pass data upwards to a network wirelessly. In this mode, it can support single or multiple WDS links and no
wireless clients can associate with it.

Configuration in CPE Mode
It can be used as an Outdoor Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) to receive wireless signal over last mile
application, helping WISPs deliver wireless broadband Internet service to residents and business customers. In the
CPE mode, APO1200/APO1215 is a gateway enabled with NAT and DHCP Server functions. The wired clients
connected to APO1200/APO1215 are in different subnet from those connected to Main Base Station, and, in CPE
mode, it does not accept wireless association from wireless clients.

Configuration in Client Bridge + Universal Repeater Mode
It can be used as an Client Bridge + Universal Repeater to receive wireless signal over last mile applications, helping
WISPs deliver wireless broadband Internet service to new residential and business customers. In this mode,
APO1200/APO1215 is enabled with DHCP Server functions. The wired clients of APO1200/APO1215 are in the
same subnet from Main Base Station and it accepts wireless connections from client devices.
Configuration on CPE + AP Mode (Router Client + Access Point)
It can be used as an Outdoor Customer Premised Equipment(CPE) to receive wireless signal over the last mile,
helping WISPs deliver wireless broadband Internet service to new residential and business customers. In this mode,
the APO1200/APO1215 is a gateway with NAT and DHCP Server functions. The wireless and wired clients of
APO1200/APO1215 are on the different subnet from Main Base Station and it accepts wireless connections from
client devices.
