and Fast Data Switching technology from E-Rake .
This series is the most ideal solution for Service Providers to deliver carrier-grade wireless
services to multiple market segments such as campuses, hospitality, healthcare, warehousing
and wider metropolitan area deployments. Even in the NLOS environments, this series shows
incredible efficiency on multi-hops repeating –truly throughput ≧100Mbps and only ≦15
ms total latency after 10 extended hops.
Much different from the traditional Wi-fi that dropped 50% throughput per each extended
hop and can’t get reply from remote device after 5~6 hops for too long latency.
1-1 Features and Benefits
Integrated Multi-radios interfaces on E-Rake Seriesplatform.
Multiple radios interfaces were integrated by “Fast Data Switching” technology from
E-Rake inside the E-Rake Seriesplatform. There are 3 models for options: EAH2001
(1*radio) / EAH2002 (2*radios) / EAH2003 (3*radios) and each radio interface can be
configured independently to run different wireless connectivity missions.
High efficiency transmission in multi-hops repeating
The backbone throughput will remain in a high level even after several hops repeating.
(≧100 Mbps @ 10 hops), and the total latency is short as well (≦15 ms @ 10 hops)
Flexible wireless backbone deployment options
Except the Fast data switching and integrated multi-radios interfaces, high output power
MIMO-OFDM technology is also a key factor to support Eagle Multi-MIMO OFDM
outdoor radio series to be the most Flexible wireless backbone deployment options
Secure and efficient client connectivity
The nimble QoS (Quality of Service) configuration provides flexible management of user’s
access bandwidth of wireless connectivity. Perfect integrated with central RADIUS server
and data encryption (WEP/WPA/WPA2), the Eagle Multi-MIMO OFDM outdoor radio
series provide a secure wireless connectivity for each client device.

2-4 Hardware Installation
The E-Rake Series–Multi-MIMO OFDM outdoor radio is a radio device, so it is susceptible to
common causes of interference that can reduce throughput and range. Follow these basic
guidelines to ensure the best possible performance:
IF there is any other 2.4 / 5GHz RF device deployed around the outdoor radio, try to set
the channel to the non-overlapping one.
Install the bridge at a height sufficient place where structures, trees, or hills do not
obstruct radio signals to and from the unit. A clear line-of-sight path can guarantee the
performance of the RF link.
Site Surveys
Clear and flat area provide better RF range and data rate, on the contrary, physical
obstructions such as trees, electric tower, hills or buildings can reduce the performance
of RF devices. Do not deploy your radios in the location where there is any obstacle
between the antennas.

IP Setup (Bridge Mode)
IP Assignment System allows user to assign the device IP address dynamically from
existing DHCP server or set a static IP address manually.
IP Address Once Static IP was selected, the IP Address field will allow you to set the
bridge device IP address manually. This IP address of the bridge is used as the base
for all of your local network settings.
Subnet Mask This is the subnet mask address for your bridge device. Set the IP
subnet mask manually.
Default Gateway Set the default gateway IP address manually.
DNS 1 & 2 The Domain Name System (DNS) is how the Internet translates domain or
website names into Internet addresses or URLs. Your ISP will provide you with at least
one DNS Server IP Address. If you wish to use another, enter that IP Address in DNS 2
fields.

mode. This IP address will be the default gateway IP address for all client devices
which connects from LAN network.
Subnet Mask (Router Mode) An IP mask defines the LAN IP scope.
Spanning Tree Protocol
STP The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a network protocol that ensures a loop-free
topology for any bridged Ethernet local area network. The basic function of STP is to
prevent bridge loops and ensuing broadcast radiation. Spanning tree also allows a
network design to include spare (redundant) links to provide automatic backup paths
if an active link fails, without the danger of bridge loops, or the need for manual
enabling/disabling of these backup links.
Ethernet Link Speed
Link The link speed of Ethernet port can be changed manually into 10 / 100 Half / Full
duplex. When you set it to “Auto”, it’s auto negotiation for 10 / 100 / 1000 and half /
full.

DHCP Server Allows you to enable or disable the DHCP server function in system.
IP Start / End The IP Start and End Address specify the range of addresses assigned
by your device when it functions as a DHCP server.
Primary & Secondary DNS Set the primary and secondary DNS server IP address
which DHCP server is going to assign for DHCP client devices.
Default Gateway Default gateways IP address assign for DHCP client devices.
Management VLAN
Management VLAN Management VLAN is a secure VLAN which divides Internet
users from device IP access. Administrators can management network devices under
the Management LAN network without betrayal of secrets.
RIP Setting (Router Mode)
RIP The Routing Information Protocol is a distance-vector routing protocol, which
employs the hop count as a routing metric. RIP prevents routing loops by
implementing a limit on the number of hops allowed in a path from the source to a
destination.
Both WAN and LAN interfaces support unidirectional and bidirectional routing
information update. When RIP “IN” was selected, routing table will be updated by
connecting router device but won’t update the routing table itself to connecting
router device. Otherwise, when RIP in “OUT” status; system will update its own

1x1 1-steram and 2x2 2-stream for antenna attached. The maximum data link rate at
1-steram and 2-stream will be 130Mbps and 300Mbps.
Short Guard Interval The guard interval is the space between symbols (characters)
being transmitted. Adding time between symbol transmissions allows these echoes
and reflections to settle in before the next symbol is transmitted. In normal 802.11
operations, the guard interval is 800 ns. A short guard interval will short the time
between symbol transmissions into 400 ns to enhance the efficiency of data
transmission.
Aggregation Frame aggregation is a feature of the 802.11n wireless LAN standards
that increases throughput by sending two or more data frames in a single
transmission.
Distance To assign a distance between nodes in a point to point transmission will
improve the success rate of data transmit.
