Radio frequency Interference Requirements
The operation of this device in the 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz frequency range is
restricted to indoor use. FCC regulations require this product to be used indoors
while operating at 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful
interference. However, the operation of this device in the 5.25 GHz to 5.35 GHz
frequency range is allowed for both indoor and outdoor use. High power radars
are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 GHz to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 GHz to 5.85
GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage to
this device.
FCC Warning
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. No guarantee exists that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception (determined by turning the
equipment off and on), the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the radio/TV receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the radio/TV receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the radio/TV receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modifications made to the product, unless expressly approved by SilverNet
Limited, could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
RF Exposure Requirements
To ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, the antenna used for
this device must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm
from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or radio transmitter. Installers and end-users must follow the
installation instructions provided in this user guide.
ECHO MANUAL-M5 v1.0 Page 3 of 44
CE Statement
The Pro Range 95 is intended to be used by suitably trained individuals or
organisations that are familiar with the requirements of the R&TTE directive. In
particular the client must ensure that appropriate antennas and transmit power
levels are selected to ensure that all power limits are met. Hereby, SilverNet Limited
declares that this device is in compliance with the essential requirements and other
relevant provisions of the R&TTE Directive 1999/5/EC. However, the use of the
following warning symbol
Means that this equipment is subject to restrictions of use in certain countries and
selection of the correct country of operation (country code) will ensure that the
device operates only on the frequencies permissible within that country. It is also
the operator’s responsibility to ensure that appropriate licenses have been sought
when operating on licensed frequencies, for example UK Band C, 5725-5850 MHz

1. Installing the radio
1.1 Instructions before installing
You will need clear Line-Of-Sight for the units to work correctly. Locate a suitable mounting location with
a pole between 30 and 60mm. Do not install anywhere that is illegal and please ensure you obey the local
regulatory rules.
You may need the following tools,
ECHO MANUAL-M5 v1.0 Page 7 of 44
1.2 Installation
1. Attach center Pillar to the Dome and the other end of the pillar to the Magnabase
2. Place the Magnabase onto and metal face that is smooth, such as a Vehicle room
3. Route the network cable to the supplied PoE injector
If you are using our 5GHz radios these should be connected with a Cat 5 or Cat 6 outdoor shielded
grade Ethernet cable.
ECHO MANUAL-M5 v1.0 Page 8 of 44
1.3 Powering up the Radio
Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the PoE port of the provided PoE adapter. Then
connect the LAN port of the PoE adapter to a PC or switch using a separate Ethernet cable.
Finally, plug the PoE adapter into a standard electrical wall socket.
If you use a PoE adapter which is not provided by SilverNet, we cannot provide warranty cover if the
radio is damaged.
ECHO MANUAL-M5 v1.0 Page 9 of 44
1.4 Accessing the radio
1. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your computer with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet
(for example, IP address: 192.168.1.100 and subnet mask:
255.255.255.0
2. Launch your web browser and enter the default IP address of your device (192.168.1.1) in the
address field. IP Address
3. Enter admin in the Username field and password in the Password field, and click Login.

2.1.1 Status-WIRELESS
The Radio status window displays a summary of the link status information
▪ Wireless mode: The mode the unit is currently set to, there are 4 modes the unit can run in. AP
Mode, Station Mode, AP WDS Mode and Station WDS Mode.
▪ Radio mode: The working mode of the radio, which supports 802.11a/an which are two separate
wireless transmission standards.
▪ Channel/Frequency: The radio’s current working channel and working frequency.
▪ Channel Width: Displays the spectral width of the radio channel. A 40 MHz channel in a minimal
interference environment will give up to twice the bandwidth of a 20 MHz channel.
▪ Country Code: set the country to which the unit is operating this will affect the channels you can
use and the power of the radio in order to comply with the countries regulations.
▪ Tx Power: The transmission power of the radio. The higher your transmission power the more
signal strength you will receive on a link.
▪ Max Rate: The max transmission rate of the radio. Different channel bandwidth’s have different
max rates. A 40 MHz channel max rate is 300Mbps. The higher this rate on both ends of the link
the better the transmission of the link.
▪ TDMA: The status of TDMA - ‘enabled’ or ‘disabled’.
Station status box shows the unit working in Station Mode.
Figure 2-3 Wireless Station Status
▪ Up/Down: UP means the Station has successfully connected with the AP. Down means there is
no link.
▪ SSID: This is the name of the wireless network the AP is transmitting
ECHO MANUAL-M5 v1.0 Page 12 of 44
▪ BSSID: BSSID is the Mac address of the remote device. Use this to lock stations to AP’s.
▪ Signal Strength: When there is a link between an AP and Station there will be a signal strength
value. This is displayed as a negative so the smaller the value the better the signal strength.
▪ Security: This is the level of security on the device
Wireless 1 (2, 3 and 4 only appear in the AP). The device can support up to 4 wireless services 1 to 4.
Figure 2-4 Wireless Access Point Status
▪ Up/Down: UP states the interface is enabled and providing wireless services. Down means it is
disabled.
▪ SSID: This is the name of the wireless network the AP is transmitting
▪ BSSID: BSSID is the Mac address of the remote device. Use this to lock stations to AP’s.
▪ Signal Strength: When there is a link between an AP and Station there will be a signal strength
value. This is displayed as a negative so the smaller the value the better the signal strength.

ECHO MANUAL-M5 v1.0 Page 13 of 44
Figure 2-5 Network
Network Mode
▪ Mode: The device supports 3 different network modes Bridge Mode, SOHO Router Mode and
WISP Mode.
A brief introduction to those modes:
1. Bridge Mode: Bridge Mode is a 2-layer network mode. The unit ETH port and wireless interface
are working at layer-2.
2. SOHO Router Mode: This mode is typically a network router mode. The ETH port works as a
WAN interface by connecting it to another network via an ETH port such as the Internet or
personal network.
The network mode can only be set as SOHO Router Mode when the unit is in AP Mode or AP WDS
Mode.
3. WISP Mode: This mode is opposite to the SOHO Router mode. It uses the wireless interface
as a WAN to connect to a public network and the ETH port operates as a 2-layer access port.
The network mode can only be set as WISP Mode when the unit is in Station Mode or Station WDS
Mode.
