Setup Instructions

1. Initial Pairing and Configuration (Bench Setup)

Before outdoor installation, it is recommended to pair and configure the two bridge units indoors to ensure proper functionality.

1. Unpack and Connect Power: Open the back cover of both CPE620-2000 units. Connect one end of a network cable to the PoE port of each unit and the other end to the PoE port of the respective PoE power adapter. Plug the power adapters into an electrical outlet.
2. Connect to LAN: Connect a second network cable from the LAN port of the first PoE adapter to your router or network switch. Connect a second network cable from the LAN port of the second PoE adapter to a computer or another network device.
3. Set Channels:
   • On one bridge unit, set the channel switch to 'A' (Master device).
   • On the other bridge unit, set the channel switch to 'B' (Slave device).
4. Initiate Pairing: Press and hold the black button on both units simultaneously. Continue holding until both LED lights blink simultaneously.
5. Observe Pairing Status:
   • If no blinking/display persists, switch channels or restart the device.
   • The LED displaying a dot indicates the master device, while the other is the slave.
   • Wait until either LED stops blinking.
   • Press the black button on the other bridge to switch to the same channel.
   • Synchronized blinking on the same channel indicates handshake in progress.
   • When the flashing stops and the green light turns on, the connection is successful. After successful connection, if the device is restarted, it will automatically connect.

2. Physical Installation

The CPE620-2000 units can be mounted on roofs, walls, or poles. Ensure a clear line of sight between the two units for optimal performance.

• Mounting: Use the provided mounting brackets, screws, bolts, nuts, and hose clamps to secure the units.
• Angle Adjustment: The brackets allow for flexible angle adjustments to ensure precise alignment between the master and slave units.
• Environmental Considerations: The IP65 rating ensures resistance to rain, snow, and dust, making them suitable for various outdoor conditions.

Operating Modes and Applications

The bluedery CPE620-2000 supports various operating modes to extend network connectivity.

Point-to-Point Network Extension

This is the primary mode for extending network signals between two distinct locations up to 3KM apart.

• The Master unit connects to your main network (e.g., router).
• The Slave unit receives the signal and provides network access at the remote location.
• Ideal for connecting separate buildings, offices, or homes.

Point-to-Multiple Point Network Extension

One Master unit can connect to multiple Slave units, extending network access to several remote locations. Ensure the angle between slave units does not exceed 60 degrees for optimal signal integrity.

• Useful for farms, large properties, or industrial sites with multiple remote buildings.

IP Camera Network Extension

The bridges can be used to extend the range of IP camera surveillance systems.

• A Transmitter unit (configured as Slave) connects to IP cameras via a switch.
• A Receiver unit (configured as Master) connects to an NVR or computer for video recording and monitoring.

Starlink Internet Extension

Extend Starlink internet coverage to additional locations, compatible with both Gen 2 and Gen 3 Starlink routers.

• Connect the LAN2 port of the master bridge to an RJ45 port of the Starlink router (Gen 3) or the Starlink Gen 2 Ethernet adapter.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your bluedery CPE620-2000 wireless bridges.

• Physical Inspection: Periodically inspect the units and cables for any signs of damage, wear, or corrosion. Ensure all connections are secure.
• Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior of the units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the units are dry before re-applying power.
• Clear Line of Sight: Regularly check that there are no new obstructions (e.g., growing trees, new structures) blocking the line of sight between the two units. Trim foliage if necessary.
• Firmware Updates: Check the manufacturer's website (bluedery Store) for any available firmware updates. Follow the instructions provided with the update carefully.
