Access Point Tenda OS3 5 GHz Wi-Fi 802.11ac

OS3 5GHz Outdoor CPE is an outdoor access point designed for point-to-point (PtP) and point-to-multipoint (PtMP) video surveillance transmission and wireless broadband access. It uses IEEE 802.11ac technology to provide a maximum wireless rate of up to 867 Mbps and integrates a 12 dBi dual-polarization directional antenna to maintain stable long-range connections. The unit supports 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN and is compatible with standard security protocols including WPA2.

Advantages

The device supports both 12V 1A Passive PoE and 12V 1A DC power options for flexible deployment, and includes auto-bridge technology that allows factory-default devices to connect automatically after power-up, simplifying setup for CCTV or other surveillance links. Centralized management via CPE Assistant enables administrators to manage multiple devices from a single PC. The IP65-rated enclosure and robust hardware design ensure reliable operation in various weather conditions.

Suitable for

• Video surveillance transmission (PtP/PtMP)
• Wireless broadband access in outdoor environments
• Long-range wireless links between buildings or remote sites
• Quick deployments where PoE or DC power is required

How to use

Mount the OS3 unit in a location with clear line of sight toward the remote device or coverage area. Connect the unit to power using either a compatible 12V 1A DC adapter or a 12V 1A Passive PoE injector through the Ethernet port. For initial setup, leave devices in factory-default mode to allow auto-bridge pairing; after power-up the CPE and base station should connect automatically. Use the CPE Assistant software on a PC to perform network configuration, monitor status, and manage multiple devices centrally.

Recommendations

Install with a stable mount and ensure antenna alignment for best long-range performance. For surveillance and critical links, secure the device with recommended network security settings (WPA2) and monitor link quality via the management software. Protect power and Ethernet connections from prolonged water exposure despite the IP65 enclosure.
