Cisco Outdoor 1310
We have recently purchased a Cisco 1310 outdoor device.
I have a couple of questions you may help me with please.
We have configured the device to act as an Access Point to provide VOIP (7920), however the range is not very good to provide recommended RSS.
1. What is the typical range of a 1310 acting as an AP?
2. Would it be better to assign this device bridging, backhauled onto a 1200 series AP?
3. Does anyone have some clear documentation explaining the configuration?
Many thanks in advance.
The flexibility of the device allows it to operate as an access point, wireless bridge, or workgroup bridge.Range as such cant be measured.But can be measured in relation to other access points and the data rate supported.For example For example, the range for a Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge in a point-to-point link is 8.5 miles at a data rate of 54 Mbps, versus 1.5 miles at 54 Mbps for the Cisco Aironet 1300 Series (typical range with integrated antennas).Refer URL

Configuration of a Point to MultiPoint link with Cisco Aironet 1310 bridges
Hi All,
The previous problem of which I started another conversation here:
http://forum.cisco.com/eforum/servlet/NetProf?page=netprof&forum=Wireless%20-%20Mobility&topic=General&CommCmd=MB%3Fcmd%3Ddisplay_location%26location%3D.1ddba023
somehow dissapeared. It could have been a problem of interferences.
I have another issue with other (multipoint) wireless WAN link, which I hope has a solution.
On the central node, we have an Cisco Aironet 1310 bridge configured as root-bridge. It has a panel of four vertical polarity 17 dBi panel 90? antennas, with more than enough gain (there is a 250 mWatts 802.11 b/g amplifier, before the 4-way splitter) and excellent line of sight to three remote bridges.
The three (03) remote bridges are also Aironet 1310 models, confidured as non-root-bridges.
The problem we have is that it seems that when the three remote links operate concurrently the amount of lost packets is huge. When I shutdown the radio interfaces of two bridges, the remaining bridge makes an excellent link with the central node.
It seems that some hours are more critical than others, also the links operate much worse when there is some (small) network traffic in them.
I have read the 1310 manuals, and I can't find a sample configuration for point to multi-point links.
Does someone knows what radio interface configuration should I need to use to establish better quality communication?
I mean, perhaps the 1 x root - 3 x no root configuration is not recommendable for the multipoint link configuration.
Any hints will be welcome.
Best Regards,
Igor Sotelo.Hi All,
Thank you for the information. I configured the distance on the root bridges, but the links showed instability.
I'm using a bi-directional amplifier. It has two pieces. According to the manuals, one is installed indoors, the other outdoors. I'm not sure if the indoors piece has the transmition module or it's only the injector.
We could establish connection at 7 km (around 4 milles) distance from the central point, using 24 dBi antennas on the other side.
However, we have issues with a near located point that is only 1.2 Km (around 0.8 milles) away and has a 13 dBi integrated patch antenna. The signal strenght value we get there is in the -62 to -68 dBm range, and is noticiably (5-10 dBm) lower than the strenght we get at other points of the link. And I have trouble establishing a high quality link with that point, using OFDM modulation. I tend to think that if I remove the amplifier I'm not going to reach that point at all. The EIRP on the central iste is 34 dBm / 2.5 watts, without amplifier it would be 26 dBm / 0.4 watts.
On the opposite sites the EIRP is 33 dBm / 2 watts using CCK or 28 dBm / 0.63 watts using OFDM.
When one looks at the central site from that point, an Motorola Canopy with passive reflector (EIRP 48 dBm or around 64 watts) can be seen. It doesn't have the same direction, but the opposite site must be large distance and could interfere with my wireless network. Attached is an amplified photo of the view. It's safe to assume that the Canopy operates in the 2.4 GHz frequency range.
Once I connect the point at 1.2 Km, the multipoint link loses its quality, and soon the lost packets get too frequent.
The CCK seems to be much more interfered than OFDM, I guess because of that canopies.
Another thing I'm wondering about is if the Aironet 1310 can continuosly switch CCK-OFDM over the same point - multipoint link, without losing packets.
What other parameters should I tweak? Is there a way to avoid interferences fromt the canopy?
I would like to apply 100 mWatts local power using the radio with OFDM, but it seems that's not possible.
Best Regards,
Igor Sotelo. -
How many clients can connect through cisco AP 1310 in wireless network ?

hello all,
I have a cisco Aironet 1310 series which am having problem with the signal strength. This box came with 8 dbi Omni antenna gain and am told this can go upto 5km raduis. After configuring this equipment, i could not get a link when i move 500 meters. Please find attached the configs on the box. Any help given would be very much appreciated. Thank YouThis 5KM distance is only going to be applicable in bridging situations. The following link shows how to use the distance calculations based on devices: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps458/products_tech_note09186a008009459b.shtml
In theory, if you had a really strong direction antenna on your client you'd be able to get the 1310 as an access Point from 5km, but you'd need perfect line-of-site and you wouldn't be mobile...
As others had mentioned, if you're looking for an access point situation with that kind of range, then you need WiMax....
but if it is bridging you want, its just a matter of getting the other link to see this one (with a good enough antenna) -

Cisco aironet 1310 Outdoor access point
I am looking at outdoor access points, I want to stick with Cisco aironet, we currently have 6 of them that are 6 years old and running great, one has had a problem because of humidity, dried it out and relocated and we are good again.
I was looking at the Aironet 1310 Outdoor access point, but I can't find much information on it. I am looking to see how many SSIDs can be setup, we currently have 2 one private, and one public, this is done with VLANS. I am also looking at finding out about the power injector, it converts to coaxial cable, it has 2 RJ-45 and 2 Coaxial, does this mean if we get 2 access points, then I only need 1 power injector?
Thanks for any help you can give.Rusty:
AP supports up to 16 SSIDs to be configured.
Multiple SSIDs with VLANs configuration is done almost the same way you do with current Aironet APs.
see here: http://tiny.cc/0qwnkw
You also need one power injector per AP. Each AP should use it's own power injector.
The two coaxial output in the power injector both are used to be connected to the AP (see below image).
The RJ-45 connectors in the power injector one of them is for Console connectivity and the other for network ethernet connectivity.

Dual RG6 Coaxial Cables for Cisco Aironet 1310
Hi All,
I would like to discuss if someone has experience using RG6 cables with "F" connectors (instead of Cisco cables) for the connection of the Aironet 1310 with its Power Injector. I mean, if the Cisco dual RG6 cables have something particular, compared to standard RG6 cables with "F" connectors.
Thanks in advance for any comment.
Regards,
Igor Sotelo.Nothing special, other than it's a reasonably high grade of cabling.
Any replacement that you use should have the same loss per foot/meter (or better), and be capable of carrying the power (some inner dielectric may not be as thermally stable).
If you intend to go a longer distance, keep in mind that the power will dissipate at some distance to the point where the AP may come up, but get flaky under load due to the inability of the cable to pass enough power for the higher processing load.
Good Luck

Lost The Cisco Aironet 1310 Web Interface????
I've been having connection issues with my (2) Aironet 1310, which are setup in a bridge p2p mode. A few weeks ago we had a power outage due to a lighting storm. Well, it knocked out my non-root bridge (not connecting to the root). So I brought it back to check the configurations, but when I try to use the web console all I get is the following page:
When I click the "Web Console" link it takes me to the following page:
Is there a way to get the original web console page back?here is the command..
archive download-sw / force-reload /overwrite tftp:///
Example..
archive download-sw / force-reload /overwrite tftp:///c1310-k9w7-tar.124-21a.JA1.TAR
to get the .TAR, go to the folder where the image is saved and then Tools >> folder options >> view >> check >> show hidden files and folders.
Now click on the image and then copy the image name and then paste the same on the CLI... then this come as IMAGE.TAR that is.. c1310-k9w7-tar.124-21a.JA1.TAR instead of c1310-k9w7-tar.124-21a.JA1
it should be c1310-k9w7-tar.124-21a.JA1.TAR
lemme know how this works out for you!! if you face any difficulties while upgrading please open up a TAC case.. we wil solve this in less than 5 minutes... and the network wil be back up!!

CISCO aironet 1310 integrated antenna poor range
Hi
I am in Canada
I am trying to configure an AIRONET 1310 with INTEGRATED antenna
to work as an access point for clients on a campground
The range I get is awfull (50 feet and I loose the signal completly)
the aironet is outside and no tree are blocking it.
I configured it all by default exept :
-- in network interfaces : Radio0-802.11G Setting
-- I changed DATA RATES from Default to Best RangeHi,
1300 Integrated antenna model comes with a Vertically polarized 13dBi gain antenna. The beam width is 36° E-plane by 38° H-plane.
Following is the range -
Americas
⢠865 feet (260 meters) at 54 Mbps
⢠3465 feet (1055 meters) at 11 Mbps
ETSI
⢠150 feet (45 meters) at 54 Mbps
⢠775 feet (235 meters) at 11 Mbps
TELEC
⢠485 feet (145 meters) at 54 Mbps
⢠1095 feet (330 meters) at 11 Mbps
So the range what you are getting is way too low.
Please check the orientation of the AP, the antenna is Vertically Polarized.
So the AP should be mounted vertically.
Second make a note at the beamwidth 36° E-plane by 38° H-plane. Make sure that all your clients are only in this coverage area. If its an open area and you want coverage for client overall the area probably I won't go with this AP being a sector antenna not providing coverage in all 360° H-Plane.
