On the airBridge the Orange LED shows POWER, Green LED indicates Ethernet activity, Blue LED indicates RF Link. By default the airBridge should automatically associate and work with the available Access Point on the network. If you want to select a specific Access Point or configure the additional parameters ( like WEP Keys ) please install the setup Software. Installing setup Software : 1. Insert the CD into the CDROM drive of the PC, the CD will autorun, If it does not autorun , browse the CD and run setup . exe 2. The installation will create the shortcuts in your program Menu at smartBridges/airBridge. o Firmware upgrade utility allows upgrades in firmware. o simpleMonitor which allows configuration of the airBridge. o Documentation shows the user guide in HTML version. o Uninstall the Setup Software. http://www.smartbridges.com/ The factory default parameters for the airBridge are • IP address – 192.168.0.22 • Subnet mask - 255.255.255.0 • Administrator Password : public • User password : public • authentication type : open key • WEP keys - None • Operating Channel : 11 • Regulatory Domain : ETSI. Note : The administrator should change his password so that configuration settings are not modified by unauthorized personnel, User password allows User to view the config settings but doesn’t allow to Change . Only administrator has the authority to change config setting. Hardware restoration of factory settings : Press the “reset” key on the back of the airBridge continuously for 15 seconds to restore back to the factory settings in case of any error or forgotten password. During restoration process the blue LED changes brightness . After restoring the factory settings reconfigure the airBridge again. http://www.smartbridges.com/ Configuring the airBridge The setup software installed on the windows PC will allow the user to modify the configuration and operating parameters of the airBridge and upgrade the latest firmware. It consists of 2 parts. • simpleMonitor – used to modify the configuration and operational parameters of airBridge. • FWUpgrade – used to upgrade the firmware residing inside the airBridge. At the time of installation the shortcuts for the simpleMonitor and FWUpgradeManager are created on your PC. The simpleMonitor The simpleMonitor Utility is provided to allow the user to configure the airBridge through the Ethernet connection. Linux/Unix Users: Though these operating systems are …

smartBridges to the future... www.smartbridges.com Wireless Ethernet Client air Bridge Instant Wireless Access for all Ethernet Equipment smartBridges to the future... www.smartbridges.com Wireless Access Point air Point Higher power, Wider coverage, Lower Cost smartBridges to the future... www.smartbridges.com Go Wireless for less - Less Money, Less Mess, Less trouble... Sharing Broadband Internet access across many computers within a home or office is an established need today. The rapidly decreasing cost of Wireless LANs makes it more cost effective solution as compared with implementing their messy wired counterparts in many cases. Wireless Access points are the essential and perhaps the most important part of a wireless infrastructure and smartBridges brings to you the best in the business. airPoint™ - Wireless Access Point that's making Waves airPoint™ is a high performance, long range and easy to install Wireless Access point for Home and small office infrastructure requirements. airPoint™ provides wireless freedom and flexibility to work anywhere in the office or at home. LongRange™ Radio Performance that goes the Distance airPoint™ features LongRange™ wireless design that provides 100 mW radio power to deliver High data throughput and long operating range. smartBridges' superior design of the radio receiver enhances the sensitivity to incredible -95 dBm level. These superior receiver and transmitter characteristics result in the long-range wireless coverage of up to 800 meters (2640 feet) at 11 Mbps of data rate in free open space. At a lower speed of 1Mbps, the range has been tested up to 1 Mile (1600m). Better range translates directly into lower wireless infrastructure cost when the need is to cover a large area. Industry Standard compliant for Inter-operability airPoint™ is based on the IEEE 802.11b industry standard prescribed for Wireless LANs. Automatic radio tuning technology is used during manufacturing to ensure that the airPoint™ can inter-operate with any standard compliant device. airPoint™ has been tested for reliable operation with the wireless equipment from various leading manufacturers. Multi-Featured Security airPoint™ is equipped with a choice of security levels to protect the data. It comes with standard Wi-Fi prescribed Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security using 40/64 bit Key. Additionally airPoint™ also offers enhanced 128-bit key encryption for superior data protection. Another key security features built into airPoint™ includes MAC level security that restricts the permitted access to pre-registered wireless clients base on their MAC ID. simpleMonitor™ The Intuitive Network Management Tool airPoint™ is supported by simpleMonitor™, an advanced Management tool, which is specifically designed to simplify wireless network management complexities. simpleMonitor™ is designed using Open System architecture. It utilizes popular network management standards (SNMP, MIB) to manage the wireless-centric network parameters such as, Channel selection, Network association, data rate, and site survey. Its graphical user interface is extremely intuitive for navigating, examining, and managing the wireless network. Dynamic Rate Scaling To increase the data range and ensure wireless network connectivity, airPoint™ adopts Dynamic Rate Scaling, thus always seeking to connect at 11 Mbps then automatically scaling to 5.5 Mbps, as well as 2 Mbps and 1 Mbps .When the signal strength increases, its speed also increases until it reaches the optimal rate, ensuring the highest level of service and the best continuity for data transmission. Power over Ethernet option available In many cases multiple access points are required to be installed to cover a certain area. It becomes a problem to find a power point next to many locations where access points are required to be installed for optimum Radio performance. airPoint™ can also be powered through the Ethernet cable by using the optional power injector available from smartBridges.
