Brief Overview
The 804Mesh offers the following key features:
Extremely User-Friendly Installation - The subscriber pairs the 804Mesh to the Gi-
gaCenter or GigaHub by initiating the WPS feature on both devices at the same time.
The GigaCenter (or Gigahub) and 804Mesh begin the pairing process and once com-
plete, discovery, configuration, and synchronization steps are completed automatically.

Wi-Fi Backhaul Signal Strength - The 804Mesh has a signal strength bar (Wi-Fi
Backhaul LED) to indicate the relative 5 GHz backhaul signal associated with that
particular 804Mesh device.
Note: When deploying the 804Mesh device, avoid placing the 804Mesh too close
to the host GigaCenter or GigaHub. If the signal strength indicator has 3 Green bars
illuminated with 1 Red bar, it means the 804Mesh is too close to the GigaCenter/
GigaHub. Calix recommends placing the 804Mesh at a distance such that 2 or 3 green
LEDs are lit.
Lastly, if only the 1st signal bar flashes, it indicates the 804Mesh is too far from the
GigaCenter/GigaHub and the performance may be less than expected.

For advanced user, the 804Mesh can be configured as an Ethernet Wireless Access
Point (WAP) with an Ethernet cable (not provided) connected between a GigaCenter/
GigaHub and the 804Mesh. While using Ethernet WAP use case, the Wi-Fi Backhaul
LED will not be lit indicating the 804Mesh is under Ethernet WAP control.

 Mounting the 804Mesh
The 804Mesh can be placed in one of two configurations:
1.   Placed on a tabletop or shelf in an upright orientation.
2.   The 804Mesh also supports wall or ceiling mount using the optional mounting
     bracket (ordered separately).

 Powering the 804Mesh
To power the equipment:
1.   Remove any protective packaging or films prior to powering up the 804Mesh.
2.   Plug in the power adapter to an available wall socket and attach the other end to
     the 804Mesh’s power port. Note the power cord is 5 feet (1.5 meters) long.

804Mesh Management
The 804Mesh can be managed via a Calix Cloud/Consumer Connect Plus application.
With this interface, service providers or subscriber’s can view statistical information
and/or troubleshoot various service delivery problems. The 804Mesh is part of the
entire GigaFamily eco-system.

Home Gateway Settings
To complete the network connection, two options are available:

1.   The 804Mesh is connected to the upstream GigaCenter via the WPS functionality
     built into both products. When initially powered up, the 804Mesh associates with
     the GigaCenter.
2.   The 804Mesh is hard-wired to the upstream GigaCenter. Once the Ethernet
     cable is connected, the 804Mesh automatically learns the network topography.

 About Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)
Backhaul signal strength can be monitored via the bank of LED’s located on the top
of the 804Mesh. This four LED array provides information as to the relative signal
strength of each 804Mesh in the network. The following table displays possible LED
states as it pertains to RSSI.

Power Supply
•   Ensure that a suitable AC power outlet is situated near the 804Mesh and easily
    accessible.
•   Connect the power supply cord only to the AC power outlet that meets the speci-
    fications marked next to the appliance AC power inlet on the 804Mesh.
•   Never alter the AC power cord. If necessary have the correct outlet installed by a
    qualified electrician or call your service provider for assistance.
•   To reduce the risk of damage to the electric cord, remove it from the outlet by
    holding onto the AC power adapter rather than the cord. Make sure the cord is
    positioned so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to
    damage or stress.

             WARNING! Do not use any other power adapter except the one that
             accompanies this unit or a power supply identified in the list below. Use
             of another adapter could result in damage to the unit. To prevent elec-
             trical shock, please do not open the cover. The following power adapter
             is qualfied for use with this 804Mesh.


                  This GigaHub must be powered by Frecom
     F18L10-120150SPAU or equivalent UL Listed LPS power source rated at:
                      Input: 90-264 VAC, 47/63 Hz, 1.0A,
                Output: Nominal 12 VDC, 1.5A Minimum, 18W

Alimentation électrique
•   Assurez-vous qu’une prise de courant C.A. appropriée est située près du
    804Mesh et qu’elle soit facile d’accès.
•   Connectez le câble d’alimentation uniquement à une prise de courant qui corre-
    spond aux spécifications indiquées à côté de l’entrée d’alimentation du 804Mesh.
•   Ne modifiez jamais le câble d’alimentation. Si nécessaire, faîtes installer la bonne
    prise de courant par un électricien qualifié ou Contactez votre prestataire de
    services pour assistance.
•   Pour réduire le risque de dommage au câble électrique, retirez-le de la prise de
    courant en tenant l’adaptateur secteur plutôt que le câble. Assurez-vous que le
    câble est positionné de manière à éviter qu’il soit possible de marcher ou trébu-
    cher dessus, ou de l’endommager.
