5. SAFETY AND HAZARD

Do not operate your Yacht Router with WIFI Extender:

• In areas where blasng is in progress.

• Where explosive atmospheres may be present including refuelling points, fuel depots, and chemical plants.

• Near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any equipment which may be suscepble to any form of radio interference.

In such areas, the Yacht Router and WIFI Extender MUST BE POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the Yacht Router and WIFI Extender can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment.

In an aircra, the Yacht Router and WIFI Extender MUST BE POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the Yacht Router and WIFI Extender can transmit signals that could interfere with various on-board

systems and may be dangerous to the operaon of the aircra or disrupt the cellular network. Use of cellular and WIFI equipment in an aircra is illegal in some jurisdicons. Failure to

observe this instrucon may lead to suspension or denial of cellular services to the oender, or legal acon or both.

Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircra is on the ground and the door is open. The Yacht Router and WIFI Extender may be used normally at this me.

IMPORTANT: Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiaon.

63 cm minimum distance has to be maintained between the WIFI Extender and the occupaonal user and 142 cm to general public. Under such conguraon, the FCC radiaon exposure

limits set forth for an populaon/uncontrolled environment can be sased.

WIFI EXTENDER INSTALLATION: WIFI Extender MUST NOT BE COLLOCATED within 20 cm range to other WIFI Extender or Yacht Router to sasfy FCC regulaons.

WARNING: The installer should congure WIFI Extender transming output power level according to country regulaons.

6. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

7. ABOUT WIFI EXTENDER

WIFI Extender is a device that will help you to extend Vessel Network WIFI coverage on larger boats or yachts. It is connected to Yacht Router via single PoE (Power over Ethernet) cable for

simultaneous power and data transfer. Each WIFI Expander is equipped with four addional LAN ports so you can easily connect more WIFI Extenders or other devices. If you need mulple

WIFI Extenders you can use star or chain topology to provide connecvity no maer the size of your vessel. WIFI Extender is essenal part of Yacht Router network infrastructure soluon.

Fuse (1.5A) that protects

DC OUT outputs.

LAN PORTS 1-5 for TCP/IP equipment connecon. LAN PORT 1 is PoE

(Power over Ethernet) capable and it can be used instead of DC power

input. LAN PORT 1 is Backbone port. Backbone port is used for internal

communicaon between Yacht Router devices (WIFI Extenders,

Expanders, Booster etc) via Backbone network. LAN PORT 2-4 can be

congured to become part of the same or dierent Vessel Networks or

Backbone Network.

DC OUT outputs. All outputs are

internally connected so it is not

important which one you choose.

12. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Install WIFI Extender in a dry indoor space that will meet Operang environment range specicaons (chapter 9.6 on page 7). Follow the installaon procedure as specied in this chapter.

WARNING: EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY RADIATION!

63 CM MINIMUM DISTANCE HAS TO BE MAINTAINED BETWEEN WIFI EXTENDER AND THE OCCUPATIONAL USER AND 142 CM TO GENERAL PUBLIC.

WIFI Extender is very powerful WIFI access point so you should not install to many units on a vessel.

As a general rule for GRP (Glass Reinforced Plasc) build vessels you can use following rule:

20-30 m vessel: 1-3 WIFI Extenders

30-40 m vessel: 3-5 WIFI Extender

40+ m vessel: 5+ WIFI Extenders

Number of WIFI Extenders also depends on the vessel type, deck and cabin quanty etc. The above given numbers are for motor yachts. For steel, aluminium or carbon build vessel you will

probably need larger number of WIFI Extenders but exact number is very hard to calculate in advance.

Always try to install WIFI Extenders in the locaons with minimum quanty of metal parts or cables following rules in the following chapters.

12.1. How to use WIFI Extender

WIFI Extender is not just a simple WIFI access point. It can be used as a backbone for complete network infrastructure installaon.

Each Ethernet (LAN) port on WIFI Extender can be programmed to become part of Vessel Network of your choice.

For example, if you are connecng mulple WIFI Extenders to Yacht Router Standard you will have three Vessel Networks (e.g. Owner, Guest, Crew) that will be spread around your vessel

through all WIFI Extenders. Each Vessel Network has WIFI and a cable (LAN) component. It means, for example, that you can connect your laptop computer to Vessel Network 1 (Owner

network) via WIFI or via LAN cable plugged into Vessel Network 1 port on Yacht Router. But you can also use any LAN port on any WIFI Extender to connect to Vessel Network 1. All you have

to do is to congure LAN port on WIFI Extender to become part of Vessel Network 1. Described feature can be very useful when you want to connect, for example, LAN socket in owner’s

cabin to Vessel Network 1 (Owner network).

To recongure ports on WIFI Extender you will have to contact Locomarine Support or your local dealer.

Each WIFI Extender will transmit all Vessel Networks.

For example, if you connect mulple WIFI Extenders to Yacht Router Standard, each WIFI Extender will transmit three Vessel Networks (e.g. Owner, Guest, Crew). For end-user it means that

he will have uninterrupted connecon all around the vessel no maer which Vessel Network he is connected to.
