3) Installing the Equipment

Device Logic connection
For outdoor CPE product, it is suggested that the CPE device be installed in a shaded area to
avoid direct sun light exposure which may cause over heat in certain extreme weather
condition. The CPE should be properly grounded for proper protection against lighting or
power surge.
To power on the device, the outdoor CPE must use a 48V PoE integrated DC power supply
adapter. The power adapters can operate in 100-240V AC range and therefore can be used
in different country. Once the device is powered up, the user should wait for about 2 minutes
before the device becomes operational. For CPE with the RUN LED indicator, a slowly
flashing light indicates the system has completed the startup procedure.
To connect PC, LAN switch or other type of IP device to the CPE product, the user should use
standard CAT5 Ethernet cable and connect to the appropriate LAN port. Once connect the
CPE LAN LED indicator should come on.

Grounding
Make sure that the installation of the outdoor unit, antenna and cables is performed in
accordance with all relevant national and local building and safety codes. Even where
grounding is not mandatory according to applicable regulation and national codes, it is
highly recommended to ensure that the outdoor unit and the antenna mast are grounded and
suitable lightning protection devices are used so as to provide protection against voltage
surges and static charges. In any event, Telrad is not liable for any injury, damage or
regulation violations associated with or caused by installation, grounding or lightning
protection.
The Grounding screw is located on the lower part at the back of the unit (see Figure below).
Use 10 AWG cable for grounding.

Page 9
Connect one of a grounding cable to the grounding screw and firmly tighten the grounding
screw. Connect the opposite end of the grounding cable to a good ground(earth) connection.


RF Signal Adjustment
After the CPE outdoor unit has installed, the direction of antenna’s azimuth and pitch angle
needs to adjust for the best signal strength. In near line of sight condition, the CPE will have
the best signal when the antenna is directly pointing the base station.
User can adjust the holder to change the direction and angle of the antenna while observing
the RF LED on the outdoor unit which indicates the signal strength.

Managing CPE Device
CPE8100 is a user-friendly LTE CPE, and very easy to configure and setup. Subscribers can
just connect the device to their computer or home switch/router and the device is ready to
provide Internet Services.

WEB Login
It is a preferred to setup the CPE using a Web browser from a local PC connected to device
LAN port. The user should ensure that the connected PC have acquired IP address via DHCP
from the device. After IP connectivity is established between the PC and CPE device, the
user may launch a Web browser and specify http://192.168.254.251 in the address bar. A
window will pop up requesting password. Input the user login password and then click the
“Log in” button. After successful log on, the default home page of the WEB GUI interface will
appear. Note that the default user password is “admin”.

FAQ and Troubleshooting
1)
My PC cannot connect to the CPE.
Re-plug the PC Ethernet cable and check if the PC LAN connection is up or showing
activity.
Check if the PoE power adapter LED is on. If it is not, check the power cord and make
sure it is connected properly. Also verify that the AC power supply is available.
If the PC LAN shows no activity and PoE adapter LED is off but the power cord is
connected properly and there is AC supply, then it is likely the PoE adapter is
damaged. Please contact distributor to obtain replacement part.
2)
My PC cannot acquire IP from the CPE.

Page 12
First check if the NIC is up and working properly. Then check the PC NIC configuration
and make sure the DHCP is enabled.
Open the MS-DOS window, enter “ipconfig /release” and “ipconfig /renew” commands
and see if PC can obtain IP correctly.
If the problem persists, please contact the operator or distributor for further diagnose.
3)
My CPE networking is not working properly.
You may want to check if the LT E connection is up and running properly. You can do
this by login the WEB GUI and check the Interface Info page.
You may want to perform a factory reset and see if the problem is being corrected.
You can do this by log into the WEB GUI using “admin” password and perform restore
the unit to default factory setting.
If the problem cannot be corrected by factory reset, please contact the operator or
distributor for further diagnose.
4)
I forget the login password and like to reset the unit to factory default.
Please contact the operator or distributor and give them the IMEI of the unit. The
operator or distributor can issue you a RESET password for you to enter in the WEB
login window.
After the unit is reset to factory default, you can login using the default password.
