Model: CPE220  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version:

im planning to use multiple cpe for the first time..

 

1. can i use 1 cpe220 as a.p. (receiver from office) for 2 cpe220 client (from the field machine area)..?

 

2. or do i really need to use wbs + sector antenna as receiver if will have 2 or 4 cpe as client?

 

3. will the cpe220 as a.p. (receiver from office) able to received signal if we put a cpe from the back side?

@RMDG 

 

Hey,

 

For your questions, hope my answers can give you some insights.

 

1. can i use 1 cpe220 as a.p. (receiver from office) for 2 cpe220 client (from the field machine area)..?

Normally yes. But you have to make sure 2 CPE220 clients are within the coverage angle of the AP.

 

 

2. or do i really need to use wbs + sector antenna as receiver if will have 2 or 4 cpe as client?

Nope. WBS + sector antenna is basically designed for ISP with large network deployment. For most home users and small business, CPE can do a good job.

 

 

3. will the cpe220 as a.p. (receiver from office) able to received signal if we put a cpe from the back side?

CPE uses built-in directional antennas. You need to face to the front of it. The signal of the back will be much weaker or even no signal if the distance is too far.

Hope it helps!

@Somnus 

Thank you very much! 

Appreciate your help.

I thought it really need to be 1 CPE is to 1 CPE ,

now I can go with

Facing the front entrance

1 CPE 220 receiver (office) to 2 CPE

220 sender those two will surely be at the dispersion angle of CPE 220

then 

Facing the back area 

1 CPE 220  2nd receiver  (office) to 2 CPE220 sender also surely at the dispersion angle of CPE220

 

***I'll be using this for cctv.. the office is somewhat in the middle area.. (where we have the NVR)

we got some IP Cam on the front area of the farm then some IP Cam at the back area.

That's why I refer the 2 CPE220 as receiver 

and the other 4-CPE 220 as sender (2-CPE220 at the front area and 2-CPE220 at back area)
