2.3.5 900 MHz Unlicensed Operation
An Orbit device configured as an MCR-900 provides
next-generation LAN extension operating in the FCC 900 MHz ISM
band. Similar to the older MDS iNET-II 900 transceivers, it supports
connection of Ethernet and/or Serial devices in the field in a
Point-to-Multipoint or Point-to-Point wireless network topology.
In its simplest configuration, the Network Name (3rd item down)
must be changed in all units. For the AP, you must change Device
Mode to AP and change Network Name to a valid entry. All other
parameters can remain at their default settings.
Figure 7. Orbit MCR-900 -Remote Setup
Configure the remote to match the AP:
1. Set Device Mode to Remote.
2. Set Modem Mode - choices: 125kbps, 250kbps, 500kbps,
1000kbps, 1000Wkbps - 1250kbps, or auto.
3. Set Network Name - The name of the network.
4. Set Radio Mode to Mac 1.
5. Set Power - Valid values: 20 to 30 dBm.
6. Set Data Compression - LZO or none.
Review settings for the required application. Press the green Save
button at the top of the window.
NOTE: For MCR-900 MHz configurations, DHCP is typically
disabled to allow for configuration of a specific IP address. On the
Web UI, navigate to Home /Services /Dhcp, click on the Enabled
box and press the green Save button at the top of the window.
