to do so might allow dust and water to enter the router.
The Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports are now weatherproof and are now ready to use.
In the ACX500 outdoor router, all the management ports (console, ToD, management,
alarm, external clocking 1 PPS, and USB ports) are located in a small chamber on the
front bottom of the router. You can access the management ports to access the router,
to perform tasks such as monitoring, upgrading, and so on. The metal cover locks and
seals the chamber from external environmental factors. See
NOTE: You need access to the management components only when there
is a need to perform any monitoring or upgradation task on the router. Other
than that, the management port chamber must always be kept closed and
sealed to protect the internal ports from dust and water, and to meet the
IP65 requirement.
To access and weatherproof the management ports:
Unscrew and remove the seven screws from the metal cover on the front of the router

that covers the management port chamber. Keep the screws and the cover for later
use.
Perform the management task as required. See
