Introduction
CAREFULLY READ THE ENTIRE
MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING
n InfraRed (IR) link allows connection without any cable between two
distant sites. For that, two identical transceivers, each installed on one site
and aligned to face each other, provide point-to-point connectivity. This
configuration makes possible data transfer from one terminal to the other
through the air over an optical wavelength carrier, the IR link – see picture in
Figure B, below.
Figure B: IR Link
The installation of such a link can be summarized as 4 stages:
♦ Site survey
♦ Installation of the infrastructure
♦
Mounting of the equipment
♦ Aiming (alignment) procedure
Always use appropriate safety equipment and
procedures when working with electrical
equipment and when working on roofs
