Hmmm. The unit seems to have a 3db (or so) antenna. Where are the
antennas available? Or does it matter if most probably won't be good
for more than 1-2000 feet?
A good antenna *is* important. Here is one similar to what I use:

You will also need a short jumper cable with a Type "N" male connector
and a RPC-SMA male connector:

The POE injector inserts power into the ethernet cable to operate the
bridge. It consists of a small wall wart transformer going to an
even smaller box with ethernet in/out jacks.
So that looks like it comes with the EOC-3610s/8610/s series (mostly
saying that so I can fid it again.)
Yes, the POE injector comes with the 3610
Looking at the quick-start and users guides, this isn't quite as simple
as setting up a Mac wireless network. ;-)
Unfortunately there is a bit of a learning curve. It's really not all
that difficult however if you know how to manually configure an
ethernet connection on your laptop.
I can talk you through configuring the 3610 but you are on your own
with the Apple laptop.
