G-1000 User’s Guide

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Initial Setup 35

2.2.4 Antennas

The G-1000 is equipped with two reverse SMA connectors and two detachable omni-

directional 2dBi antennas to provide clear radio signal between the wireless stations and the

access points. Refer to the Antenna Selection and Positioning Recommendations appendix for

more information.

The following table shows the G-1000’s coverage (in meters) using the included antennas. The

distance may differ depending on the network environment.

Refer to the Quick Installation Guide for instructions on how to attach the antennas to the G-

1000.

2.3 Hardware Mounting Options

The G-1000 may be placed on a flat surface or wall mounted.

In general, the best place for the access point is at the center of your intended wireless

coverage area. For better performance, mount the G-1000 in a high position free of

obstructions.

Refer to the Quick Start Guide for hardware mounting procedure.

2.4 Additional Installation Requirements

• A computer(s) with an installed network card or an IEEE 802.11b-compliant PCMCIA

wireless LAN card.

• To enable remote RADIUS authentication for wireless clients, you need

• A wireless client computer running IEEE 802.1x-compliant client

software. Currently, this is bundled with Windows XP.

• A network RADIUS server for remote user authentication and

accounting.

2.5 Configuring Your G-1000

Configure your G-1000 using the Web configurator or SMT (System Management Terminal).

You can access the SMT using Telnet.
