1. NetPoint Pro CPE – AP

2. Full indoor coverage with NPP CPE - AP2
A new approach for indoor coverage: NPP CPE-AP
Place by the window
Pick up the Wi-Fi signal from the outdoor
Retransmit it indoors
High power Wi-Fi radio:
Tx power - 25dbm (for indoor and outdoor)
Similar range as with the USB CPE (WCPE-24HP-USB)
Kit will include:
Window mount
5dbi antenna
Optional PoE adaptor
WCPE-24DZ-SR

3. NPP CPE-AP Use cases (1) Most basic use case: NPP CPE-AP as bridge3
Most basic use case: NPP CPE-AP as bridge
Still two virtual Wi-Fi interfaces on the CPE-AP
The CPE-AP acts as a “bump in the wire”
All user’s MAC addresses are visible to the operator
Sometimes required by the regulator
Provides control to the operator on the service usage

4. NPP CPE-AP Use cases (2) Case 2: CPE-AP in Router mode4
Case 2: CPE-AP in Router mode
NAT and firewall function between indoor and outdoor SSIDs
Router can hide multiple users behind it
Hiding their MAC addresses from the metro network
NPP CPE-AP can perform 8021.x Radius authentication

5. Wire Line Option 5
Wire line connectivity is also available for both modes:
Router and bridge mode
Has advantage over USB based CPE:
Doesn’t require a driver
No compatibility issues with end user’s PC
No profile definition issues with end user’s PC
Can be connected with longer cables
USB cable length is limited to 5-12meters

6. Considerations with CPE-AP6
The CPE-AP has some limitations
The usage of a single frequency repeater halves the capacity of the base station
It is strongly recommended not to allow wireless LAN traffic in the end user’s side
Will eat up the base station capacity
By default, the CPE-AP blocks wireless LAN traffic on the LAN side.
