Model: CPE510  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

Project : CCTV  8 IP cameras have to fix at 4 Directions (E,W,N,S) of the 1-2 km radius factory site. Each pole has 2 cameras.  CMS (Central Monitoring Station) have to setup inside office (middle of the site). Each camera is 4Megapixel. NVR incoming/Outgoing bandwidth is 160 Mbps.

 

Q: Each pole fix CPE 510 is good enough? What is the exact beam width of this 510? Better use 610 CPE?  CMS location how many 510/610 CPE need to fix? Or suggest me any 360 degree CPE need to be used at CMS location ? Please Advise! 🙏 "Venu@9492321991"

Hello and welcome.

At this ponit, we have CPE 210 510 and 710. 210 is single-band 2.4GHz. While 510 and 710 are 5GHz. 710 is dedicated for super long range. I do not think 710 fit this project. 210 is okay, but 2.4GHz could be interfered. 510 is considered as good in this project. For the detaild specs: please refer to this link.

 

For the CPE510, the beam width is

Built-in 13dBi 2x2 Dual-polarized Directional Antenna
Beam Width: 45° (H-Plane) / 30° (E-Plane)
Note: For more details, please refer to datasheet

 

On how many CPEs can achieve the project, I can give you an example.

First things first, CPE is a directional antenna. Therefore, you have to use two CPEs at the same time to build up the P2P. At this time, there is no 360 degree CPE or long range antenna.

 

For one direction, let's say North, you can set up one at the CMS. This one(we call this AP CPE) will pushing the WiFi to the North and you hook up another CPE(Client CPE) to receive the signal and convert the connection to one Wired(Ethernet port). So, the CMS has communication with the North side. You connect your camera to the Client CPE.(Client CPE can only provides a single Ethernet connection). So, you use two(a pair) for one side.

 

I cannot say that you have to get 4 pairs for each direction. You can do a simple test with two pairs.(4 CPE units). Set up the North side with two, and set up another single CPE as Client CPE at either direciton(west or east). You can test this one see if you can receive the signal from the AP CPE(for North side). If you can, that's great, you don't have to put 4 CPEs at the CMS for four direcitons(N S W E). Two CPEs at the CMS can cover four directions. That's the ideal case.

 

If that's the case, you turn on the Maxtream on your CPE at the CMS. CPE can do Point to Multiple Points(PtMP). Maxtream is a unique technology developed by TP-LINK for PtMP.
