Introduction
The ENH710EXT is a high-powered, long-range 2x2 Dual-
Band Wireless 802.11a/b/g/n Outdoor Access Point with
speeds up to 450 Mbps on both its high-powered 2.4
GHz and 5 GHz radios. It can be configured as an: Access
Point, Client Bridge or WDS (AP, Station & Bridge). The
ENH710EXT is designed to operate in a variety of outdoor
environments. Its high-powered, long-range characteristics
make it a cost effective alternative to ordinary Access
Points that don’t have the range and reach to connect to
a growing number of wireless users who wish to connect
to a business network. The ENH710EXT supports the 2.4
GHzfrequencybandunder802.11b/g/nmodewhileatthe
same time providing the 5 GHz band for communicating to
and from other 5 GHz capable computers, tablets or smart
phones or transferring files. Several ENH710EXTs can be
deployed in a campus setting using the 5 GHz band as
Maximum data rates are based on IEEE 802.11 standards. Actual throughput and range may vary depending on many factors including environmental conditions,
distance between devices, radio interference in the operating environment, and mix of devices in the network. Features and specifications subject to change without

PoE injector and plug the other end in to an electrical
outlet.
3. Connect the second Ethernet cable into the LAN port of
the PoE injector and the other end to the Ethernet port
on the computer.
4. Screw on the provided antennas to the device. Once
both connections are secure, verify the following:
a) Ensure that the POWER light is on (it will be green).
b) Ensure that the 2.4 GHz/5 GHz WLANlightis on (it will
be green for both 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz).
c) Ensure that the LAN (Computer/ENH710EXT
Connection) light is on (it will be green).
d) Once all three lights are on, proceed to set up the
Access Point using the computer.
