through 11 can be used. Do not operate such products on any other channels.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
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. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
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 receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
RF Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits. This equipment should be installed and
operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
operations. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter. When operated in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency range, this device is restricted to indoor use
to reduce the potential for harmful interference with co-channel Mobile Satellite Systems.

3. Preparing for Installation
Check Installation Environment
Before installing MSR1200, please check the environment to ensure MSR1200 is working in a good
environment. The requirements on the environment include installation position, power supply, network,
temperature, humidity, radio interference, wind force, dust, erosion and etc.

MSR1200 Installation Guide 6
Try to avoid the obstacles in the coverage environment
Stay away from the electronic devices or equipments that may produce radio frequency noise
(such as microwave oven)
Installation Tools
Installation Tools
General Tools
ruler (1m), marker, knife, masonry drill and drill bits
Special Tools
stripping pliers, press pliers, crystal head pressure pliers
Auxiliary Tools
Ladder, rubber hammer
Note: The tool list above is only for reference. Please choose proper tools according to actual installation
environment.
Unpacking
Before unpacking the package, please make sure the package is undamaged. After unpacking, please
pay attention to the following aspects:
If the items in the package box are not the same as the packing list stated, please contact the
device supplier.
If the package box is eroded or water-soaked, you should stop unpacking, find the reason and
contact the device supplier.
4. Power Supply
The MSR1200 supports POE (Power over Ethernet) or local power supply via power adaptor
POE
Connect one end of the twisted pair to the Ethernet interface of the MSR1200, and connect another
end of it to the Out port of the switch or power injector.
Local Power Supply
Connect one end of the power adaptor that is shipped with the MSR1200 in the package to the power
port of the MSR1200, and connect another end of it to the AC power plug.
5. Connecting The Ethernet Cable
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet interface of the MSR1200, and connect another end
of it to the Ethernet interface of the switch.
Note: it requires using shield Ethernet cable and the switch must be properly grounded.
6. Installing The Antenna

MSR1200 Installation Guide 7
Connect one end of the omni antenna that is shipped with the MSR1200 in the package to the antenna
connector, and adjust the omni antenna to ensure it in good direction.
Installing the antenna feeder
If using antenna feeder, you need to use RP-SMA/M - N/F or RP-SMA/M –N/M convertible cable to
connect the antenna interface (RP-SMA/F) of the MSR1200 and the N-type interface of the antenna feeder
or power splitter.
7. Installing MSR1200 on A Wall
Choose the installation position of the MSR1200 and use a pencil to mark the position of four holes on the
wall. Use four expansion anchors (￠6) and screws (M4X30) to fix the MSR1200 on the wall.
