5. Подешавање и инсталација
5.1. Физичка инсталација
The CF-E113A supports wall-mounted, pole-mounted, and bracket installations. Use the provided stainless steel ties for pole mounting or appropriate hardware for wall mounting.
Ensure the device is positioned with a clear line of sight to the other bridge unit(s) for optimal signal transmission.
5.2. Напајање уређаја
Connect the PoE power adapter to the WAN/LAN port of the CF-E113A and then plug the adapter into a power outlet. The device will power on automatically.
5.3. One-Click Pairing
The CF-E113A features a simplified pairing process for establishing a wireless bridge connection:
- Подешавање предајника: Set the toggle switch on the first CF-E113A unit to AP (Access Point) mode.
- Подешавање пријемника: Set the toggle switch on the second CF-E113A unit to СТА (Station) mode.
- Упаривање: The devices will automatically attempt to pair. A successful pairing will be indicated by specific LED patterns (refer to the LED indicator section in the full manual for details).
Image: Illustration of the one-click pairing process. One device is set to AP (Transmitter) and the other to STA (Receiver) using toggle switches, leading to a successful wireless connection.
5.4. Signal Alignment
After physical installation and initial pairing, optimize the signal strength by adjusting the angle of the CPE units. The device includes a signal strength indicator to assist with precise alignment.
- Very Strong: All indicator LEDs lit (e.g., green).
- Јака: Most indicator LEDs lit (e.g., green).
- генерално: Some indicator LEDs lit (e.g., red/orange).
- Слабо: Few or no indicator LEDs lit (e.g., red).
Adjust the device angle until the signal strength indicators show the strongest possible connection.

6. Радни режими
The CF-E113A can be configured for various wireless bridge scenarios.
6.1. Веза од тачке до тачке
This is the most common setup, involving two CF-E113A units to create a direct wireless link between two locations. One unit acts as an Access Point (AP) and the other as a Station (STA).
6.2. Point-to-Multi-Point Connection
For scenarios requiring multiple remote locations to connect to a central point, one CF-E113A can act as an AP, and several other CF-E113A units can act as STAs. This is suitable for applications like distributed video surveillance.
Важно: For optimal performance in a point-to-multi-point setup, ensure that the angle between the cameras/CPEs and the central monitoring CPE is less than 60 degrees. This configuration requires careful planning to meet broadband requirements and minimize signal degradation.
Image: Diagram illustrating a point-to-multi-point connection. Multiple cameras connected to individual CPEs transmit wirelessly to a central CPE, which then connects to an NVR and monitoring computer. The diagram emphasizes the 60-degree transmission angle requirement.
6.3. Прample Application: Elevator Monitoring
The CF-E113A can be used to establish wireless links for elevator monitoring systems, providing connectivity between cameras inside elevators and a central security and monitoring center. This eliminates the need for complex wiring within elevator shafts.
