1 Product Overview
Thank you for using EOC5510. It is a powerful, enhanced, enterprise scale product with 4+1
multi-functions Access Point, Access Point with WDS function, Client Bridge, WDS Bridge, and Client
Router.
EOC5510 is easily to install almost anywhere with Power over Ethernet for quick outdoor installation.
External N-type antenna provides better wireless signal quality and the antenna is upgradeable.
EOC5510 uses 5G band of wireless signal to avoid interference of most digital signal such as mobile
phone.
EOC5510 can manage power level control, Narrow bandwidth selection, Traffic shaping and Real-time
RSSI indicator. EOC5510 is fully support of security encryption including WI-Fi Protected Access
(WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK), 64/128/152-bit WEP Encryption and IEEE 802.1x with RADIUS Accounting.
1.1 Feature
The following list describes the design of the EOC5510 made possible through the power and
flexibility of wireless LANs:
a) Difficult-to-wire environments
There are many situations where wires cannot be laid easily. Historic buildings, older
buildings, open areas and across busy streets make the installation of LANs either
impossible or very expensive.
b) emporary workgroups
Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibition centers, disaster-recovery,
temporary offices and construction sites where one wants a temporary WLAN established
and removed.
c) he ability to access real-time information
Doctors/nurses, point-of-sale employees, and warehouse workers can access real-time
information while dealing with patients, serving customers and processing information.
d) Frequently changed environments
Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where frequently
rearrange the workplace.
e) Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks

4
Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused by moves,
extensions to networks, and other changes with wireless LANs.
f) Wired LAN backup
Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for mission-critical
applications running on wired networks.
g) raining/Educational facilities
Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless connectivity to ease
access to information, information exchanges, and learning.

1.2 Benefits
Access Point Mode Use this feature to setup the access point’s configuration information.
It has support adjusting transmit power and channel. Client can access
the network with different regulatory settings and automatically
change to the local regulations.
Client Bridge Mode Use this feature to connect to an Access Point and enjoy the great
speed of surfing internet.
WDS Bridge Mode Use this feature to link multiple APs in a network, All clients associated
with any APs can communicate each other like an ad-hoc mode.
Client Router Mode This feature functions completely opposite but similarly with AP
Router Mode. Client Router connected to an AP wirelessly and
transmit internet connection protocol through AP to access the
internet.
Multiple SSIDs EOC5510 supports up to 4 SSIDs on your access point. The following
options can be set to each SS to each SSID:
-SSID for public or private network
-Authentication is fully supported
-VLAN identifier
-Radius accounting identifier
-Profile isolation for infrastructure network
VLAN Specify a VLAN number for each SSID to separate the services among
clients.
QoS Use this feature to limit the incoming or outgoing throughput.
Wi-Fi Protect Access Wi-Fi Protect Access is a standard-based interoperable security
enhancement that increases the level of data protection and access
control for existing and future wireless LAN system. It is compatible
with IEEE 802.11i standard WPA leverages TKIP and 802.1X for
authenticated key management.

2 EOC5510 Multi-Function Instruction Guide
2.1 Access Point
In the Access Point Mode with WDS Function, EOC5510 function likes a central connection for any
stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11a network. Stations and Client must configure the same
SSID and Security Password to associate within the range. EOC5510 supports 4 different SSIDs to
separate different clients at the same time.
2.2 Access Point with WDS Function
EOC5510 also supports WDS function in Access Point Mode without losing AP’s capabilities.
Configure others Access Point’s Wireless MAC Address in both Access Point devices to enlarge the
wireless area by enabling WDS Link Settings. WDS function can support up to 8 different AP’s MAC
addresses.
Auction: Not every Access Point device has support WDS in Access Point Mode. It is recommended
using EOC5510 if you would like to use this service.

9
2.3 Client Bridge
In the Client Bridge Mode, the EOC5510 function likes a wireless dongle. Connected to an Access
Point wirelessly and surf internet whenever you want. Using Site Survey to scan all the Access Point
within the range and configure its SSID and Security Password to associate with it. Connect you
station to the LAN port of the EOC5510 via Ethernet.
2.4 WDS Bridge
In the WDS Bridge Mode, the EOC5510 can wirelessly connect different LANs by just simply configure
each other’s MAC Address and Security Settings. This mode is used when two wired LANs locate in
small distance and want to communicate each other. The best solution is using EOC5510 wirelessly
connect two wired LANs. WDS Bridge Mode can establish 16 WDS links. The connection diagram is
like a Star.
Auction: WDS Bridge Mode is not function like Access Point. APs linked by WDS are using the same
frequency channel, more APs connected together may lower throughput. Please be aware to avoid
loop connection, otherwise you may enable Spanning Tree Function.

10
2.5 Client Router
In the Client Router Mode, the EOC5510 has DHCP Server build inside that allows many LANs
automatically generate an IP address to share the same Internet. Connect an AP/WISP Wirelessly and
connect to LANs via wired. Client Router Mode is act completely opposite to the AP Router Mode.

11
3 Computer Settings
3.1 Assign a Static IP
In order to configure EOC5510, please follow the instruction below:
1. In the Control Panel, double click Network
