How Does it Work

How does it work

  1. The CPX80P is a radio.  It connects the subscriber’s network to our WISP network. 

  2. The CPX80P uses a network cable to provide both data and power to the device.  It’s powered via a PoE (Power over Ethernet) protocol. This means you can use a PoE injector in line with the network cable to provide power.  There is a PoE injector included in the box in which the CPX80P is shipped.  

  3. If you’re using a BTI CR650 router to provide Wifi to the subscriber, you don’t need a PoE injector.  The red port on the back of the CR650 provides power on its own. 

  4. The outdoor CPX80P connects to the tower to transmit and receive signals.


FAQs / Troubleshooting    

1. The power indicator does not turn on 

  • Check the cable from the LAN port on the outdoor CPE and the connection to the red port on the CR650 is fully connected

  • Make sure the CR650 is plugged in and has power

2. My internet stopped working 

  • Try rebooting the Outdoor CPE by unplugging the CR650 from the wall, waiting 10 seconds, and then plugging it back in.
