RUGGEDCOM WIN5123 Chapter 2 Installation Guide Installing the Device A single output RJ45 connector provides 10/100 Base-T data and power to the outdoor unit over a Category 5e cable. This cable provides for the bi-directional transfer of data and signaling as well as a power feed to the outdoor equipment.
When the CPE is connected to a RUGGEDCOM RP100 or RP110, make sure there is a solid connection between the lightning protector and the CPE. The following illustration details a typical installation: NOTE A shielded cable must be used and connected to local ground at both the RUGGEDCOM WIN5123 and CPE. NOTE The lightning protector must meet the necessary requirements of IEC/UL/CSA 60950-1.

Most outdoor CPE, antenna or cable problems are caused by coaxial cable connections loosened by vibration, allowing moisture to penetrate the connector interface. Siemens strongly recommends weatherproofing all outdoor cable connections to prevent the ingress of water and help secure connections.

RUGGEDCOM WIN5123 Chapter 2 Installation Guide Installing the Device Make sure the connection is secure and the cable extends below the connector to provide a path for water to flow away from the base station. Starting as close to the base station as possible, stretch and wind rubber splicing or self-amalgamating tape around the connector and cable.
Section 2.9 Configuring the CPE Once the CPE is installed and connected to the network, it must be configured. The RUGGEDCOM WIN5123 features a Web-based User Interface (UI) for all configuration management. For more information about configuring the base station, refer to the RUGGEDCOM WIN CPE User Guide associated with the device and the installed software release.
