Below is an image illustrating the correct connection points of the device. If you ordered more then one (1) Cambium device you can connect extra devices in strategic locations of your facility to expand the coverage. These devices are mesh enabled so wifi connections should remain fluid throughout your facility from a single guest wifi network.

Cambium Networks Connections

Here are the detailed steps:

  1. Plug the power cord into an AC wall outlet and then plug the other side to the powerinjector.
  2. Connect the blue Network Cable into an available port on your existing Internet Modem or router, the other side connects to the Gigabit Data port on the Power Injector.
  3. Connect the other blue Network Cable into the port on the Access Point labeled “ETH1”.  Connect the other side of the cable to the open port on the power injector labeled Gigabit Data+Power.(The LED indicator should illuminate now).
  4.  After a few minutes, the WiFi Access Point hotspot should have completed all its initial booting and be broadcasting your branded WiFi signal.
  5. Using your phone or a tablet, connect to your new guest WiFi network from your device. Your device should soon be displaying the WiFi splash connect page branded for your business. 
  6. NOTE: Certain Android devices may need to attempt to surf the web before being presenting thesplash page.

Upon successful setup, your business is ready to start collecting valuable marketing data (e.g., First Name, Last Name, Email Address, Mobile Number and Birthday) the first time new guests connect to guest WiFi!

Once the patron signs up and successfully connects to WiFi the system will remember that patron's device and not ask them to sign in again on future visits.  Your returning guests will simply tap a CONNECT button to start their new WiFi session.

Please remember to disable legacy guest WiFi networks to avoid broadcasting a competing signal to guests.
