See the guide included with your AP and configure the AP before you connect the Luxul
Range Extender System. Once the AP is configured, disconnect all power and connect the
Luxul Range Extender System.
CAUTION: Disconnect all power before connecting or disconnecting any cables
or coax to or from this device. Failure to do so will void your warranty.

1. Connect the X-WAV antenna to the Shock-WAV Wi-Fi
Signal Booster using the N-Male to N-Male cable. Be sure
to connect the cable to the side of the Shock-WAV Wi-Fi
Signal Booster labeled “Antenna”.
2. Remove the stock antenna from your AP. Set aside the
stock antenna, you will not need it for this installation.
3. Using the included N-Male to RP-SMA cable connect
the Shock-WAV Wi-Fi Signal Booster to the antenna port
of your AP. Be sure to connect the cable to the side of
the Shock-WAV Wi-Fi Signal Booster labeled “INPUT”.
4. Mount the AP to the enclosure using the included Velcro
mounting strips.

For maximum flexibility you may power the Pro-WAV Range Extender System by Direct
Power or POE using the Luxul Wireless POE Injector or a POE injector that supports legacy
mode. The Luxul Wireless Signal Booster does not support 802.3af POE power. (Check
POE’s documentation).
1. Decide where your Ethernet source will enter the Pro-WAV enclosure, left, right or
bottom, and place the Ethernet pass through in that location.
2. DO NOT connect your external Ethernet source or power source at this time.
Direct Power: (Figure 2)
NOTE: If powering the Shock-WAV Signal Booster directly the
“POE OUT” port is disabled.
1. Connect the Ethernet cable from the Ethernet pass through to the “10/100M” port of
your Netgear AP, (See AP’s documentation).
2. Attach the Luxul power supply (48VDC) to the “48V DC IN” port of the Signal Booster.
3. Connect Netgear power supply to the AP’s power port (See AP’s documentation).
4. Plug the power supplies into your power source.

2. Connect the next Ethernet cable from the “POE OUT” of the Wi-Fi Signal Booster to the
“10/100M” port of your Netgear AP, (See AP’s documentation).
3. Be sure all cables are connected securely and power up your POE injector.
4. You may now power your POE injector.

Install the optional POE injector where you have
access to your data/network source Ethernet cable and
power sources.
NOTE: The POE-1Port is a non 802.3af/at

DEPLoymEnT
The Pro-WAV 100 Wi-Fi Range Extender System is designed to placed at the center of the
desired coverage area. For best results, the System should be deployed where the maximum
amount of signal can be sent throughout the desired coverage area. The flat panel antenna
included in the Wi-Fi Range Extender System is a directional antenna and should be pointed
toward the desired coverage area, similar to aiming a flash light.
Placement Within Your Coverage Area
Luxul Wireless products, particularly those implementing our patented booster products,
are often capable of emitting enough signal strength to cover an entire home regardless
of orientation. However, for best results, the deployment suggestions, figure 5,
are recommended.

Large or Unusually Shaped Coverage Areas
If installing the Wi-Fi Range Extender System in a large or unusually shaped coverage area
you may want to consider using the Pro-WAV 200-24-FC2. Figure 7 demonstrates how two
antennas can more effectively cover large or unusually shaped coverage areas.
FIGURE 6

Results may vary depending on building layout, type of construction and other environmental factors
including Wi-Fi traffic, Microwave Ovens, Cordless Phones etc.
FCC NOTICE: The use of all radio equipment is subject to regulations in each country. To comply with FCC part
15 rules in the United States, radio equipment must only be used in systems that have been FCC certified. It is the
responsibility of the user/professional installer/operator to ensure that only approved equipment/systems are
deployed. To ensure FCC part 15 compliance, Luxul amplifier products should only be installed in certified systems
by licensed professionals.
FCC Certification Support for OEMs: Luxul Wireless offers FCC certification assistance and engineering support

Weak or non-existent coverage.
• Make sure the cables are properly connected and that there is power to the Shock-WAV
Wi-Fi Signal Booster and your WAP (Wireless Access Point).
• If the Signal Booster is powered the Power and TX/RX indicators will be solid green. If
data is passing through the signal booster the TX/RX indicator will be Green with flashing
Red. If there is no indication of data pass through remove the Luxul unit and test with
the WAPs stock antennas to make sure the WAP’s radio is transmitting. If the WAP is not
transmitting check your WAP’s documentation for possible causes.
• Sometimes, WAP’s with multiple antennas have primary and secondary antenna ports.
Be sure to connect the signal booster to the primary antenna port of the WAP as many
secondary ports are receive only, or do not transmit at the same power level as the
primary antenna port. If your WAP has more than one antenna port, try connecting
to a different port and/or, if available, change the administration settings disable the
secondary antenna port. (See your WAP’s documentation).
• Ensure the X-WAV antenna is properly positioned. Directional antennas should face the
direction of the area to be covered. Omni antennas should be centered in the desired
coverage area. Antennas should have minimum of 2 feet (.6 meters) of clearance with
no obstructions.
• The Luxul Wireless Circular Polarized signal is superior for penetrating wood, concrete,
and stucco, but all wireless signals can be disrupted by certain obstructions, including
large metal objects, or strong magnetic fields. Try orienting the antenna where line-of-
sight access to the desired coverage area is available.
