Each wireless link requires two AN-80i units. One AN-80i is configured as the PTP 
Master and controls the wireless link. This function is transparent to all Ethernet 
operations. The master AN-80i uses a scheduled request/grant mechanism to arbitrate 
requests for bandwidth from the remote unit -- providing non contention-based traffic 
with predictable transmission characteristics. The second AN-80i operates as a PTP Slave 
under control of the master unit. 

 

 

The AN-80i receives DC power and exchanges data with the indoor network through the 
Ethernet port. The AN-80i Ethernet port connects to the PoE Adapter using a 
weatherproof Cat. 5e Ethernet cable. The Ethernet port is a female RJ-45 connector. 

The RF port is used to send and receive RF signal to/from the antenna. A short coaxial 
cable is provided to connect the transceiver to an external antenna. The RF port is a 
female N-type connector. 

There are two mounting brackets available for the AN-80i. The lightweight (two-point) 
antenna bracket provides convenient mounting of one-foot flat panel antennas. The 
heavy-duty (four-point) antenna mounting bracket is available for mounting two-foot flat 
panel and parabolic antennas. 

A ground-lug is provided on the AN-80i chassis. Use this connection to terminate a 
grounding wire. 
Important: Correct grounding is very important for safe operation of wireless 
equipment. Ensure that all grounding connections are made in accordance with 
local and national standards.
