1.1IntroductionofWLO-15814N/WLO-15802N
PheeNet outdoor high power WiFi-N Bridge is the point of connection to Wireless Outdoor Network for service provider
deploying last mile services to business or residential broadband subscribers. Network administrators can create multiple
subscriber service tier using per-subscriber rate limiting features, and manage centrally. PheeNet outdoor CPE/AP utilizes
a 200mW output Tx Power connect to the WiFi mesh or WDS infrastructure and provides the subscriber with an Ethernet
connection for a local access.
PheeNet outdoor high power Bridge can be used for nine different purposes in six different modes. In the Router AP
mode, it can be deployed as a gateway with wireless Access Point(AP) and provides WDS link for network extension. In
the AP mode, it can be deployed either as traditional fixed wirelessAccess Point, or combination ofAP and
WDS(AP+WDS). In the WDS mode, it’s only used to expand or bridge Ethernet networks and deployed as a main base,
relay based or remote base station. In the CPE mode, it connects to Wireless Internet Service Provider’s(WISP) outdoor
network via wireless WAN gateway to access Internet. In the Client Bridge + Universal Repeater mode, it connects to
Wireless Internet Service Provider’s(WISP) outdoor network via wireless or wired bridge to access to Internet. In the CPE
+ AP mode, it connects to Wireless Internet Service Provider’s(WISP) outdoor network via wireless WAN gateway to
access Internet, and it also can provide wireless clients associated via Access Point.
1. Router AP+WDS : It can be deployed as a gateway with wireless Access Point and provides WDS link for
network extension.
2. Access Point : It can be deployed as a traditional fixed wirelessAccess Point
3. Repeater : To expand wireless service by repeating priorAP
4. WDS : It can be used to expand Ethernet network via wireless WDS Link
5. AP+WDS : Not only to extend Ethernet network, but also provide wireless access to the expanded network
6. CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) : It is a wireless gateway with NAT and DHCP Server functions to
connects to Wireless Internet Service Provider's (WISP)
7. Client Bridge + Universal Repeater : It is a wireless repeater or bridge to connects to Wireless Internet Service
Provider's (WISP)
8. CPE+AP: It is a wireless repeater or gateway with NAT and DHCP Server functions to connects to Wireless
Internet Service Provider's (ISP)

1.2SystemConcept
The WLO-15814N / WLO-15802N is not only designed and used as traditional outdoorAP, but also with rich features
tailored for WISP applications. The two-level management capability and access control ease WISP and owners to
maintain and manage wireless network in a more controllable fashion. Main applications are listed as follows with
illustration:
Wireless CPE for Multi Dwelling Unit/Multi Tenant Unit(MDU/MTU) complexes including apartments, dormitories, and
office complexes.
OutdoorAccess Point for school campuses, enterprise campuses, or manufacture plants.
Indoor Access Point for hotels, factories, or warehouses where industrial grade devices are preferred.
Public hotspot operation for café, parks, convention centers, shopping malls, or airports.
Wireless coverage for indoor and outdoor grounds in private resorts, home yards, or gulf course communities.

WLO-15814N / WLO-15802N is a multiple mode system which can be configured either as a wireless gateway or an
access point as desired. It also can be used as a WDS link for Ethernet network expansion. This section depicts different
applications on Router AP Mode, AP Mode, WDS Mode, CPE Mode, Client Bridge + Universal Repeater Mode and
CPE + AP Mode.
Configuration on Router AP Mode (Gateway + Access Point + WDS)
ÎExample 1 : Router AP without WDS
9It can be deployed as a gateway with wirelessAccess Point
ÎExample 2 : Router AP with WDS
9It can be deployed as a gateway with wirelessAccess Point and provides WDS link for network extension.

Configuration in AP Mode (including Access Point + WDS)
An access point can be either a main, relay or remote base station. A main base station is typically connected to a
wired network via the Ethernet port.A relay base station relays data between main base stations and relay stations or
remote base stations with clients. A remote base station is the end point to accept connections from wireless clients
and pass data upwards to a network wirelessly.
ÎExample 1 : Access Point without WDS
9It can be deployed as a tradition fixed wirelessAccess Point
ÎExample 2 : Access Point with WDS
9It can be deployed as a tradition fixed wirelessAccess Point and provides WDS link to expand network
Configuration in WDS Mode (Pure WDS)
An access point can be either a main, relay or remote base station. A main base station is typically connected to a
wired network via the Ethernet port.A relay base station relays data between main base stations and relay stations or
remote base stations with clients. A remote base station is the end point to accept connections from wireless clients
and pass data upwards to a network wirelessly. In this mode, it can support single or multiple WDS links and no
wireless clients can associate with it.

Configuration in CPE Mode
It can be used as an Outdoor Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) to receive wireless signal over last mile
application, helping WISPs deliver wireless broadband Internet service to residents and business customers. In the
CPE mode, WLO-15814N / WLO-15802N is a gateway enabled with NAT and DHCP Server functions. The wired
clients connected to WLO-15814N / WLO-15802N are in different subnet from those connected to Main Base Station,
and, in CPE mode, it does not accept wireless association from wireless clients.
