Optical Interface

In the copper interface version, power is fed to the Horizon using PonE techniques via the Ethernet
connection to Port 1. In the optical version, this is not possible, so power is fed via the connection to Port
2. Port 2, on the optical interface variant, is equipped with a weatherproof MIL style multi-pin connector,
which incorporates an Ethernet connection and a power feed (NOT PonE) connection.
5.2.1 Using the Composite Cable
A composite cable is available that includes two CAT5E cables and power feed wires and is terminated at
the Horizon end with the MIL style connector compatible with the Port 2 connection. One of the CAT5E
cables (grey) provides an Ethernet connection to Port 2. The remaining CAT5E cable (blue) does not
need to be terminated.
Note that the Ethernet connection (where used) and power feed to Port 2 must be fed via a DragonWave
Lightning Arrestor Unit to protect the network and power systems from transients. Either the Indoor or
Outdoor Lightning Arrestor unit may be used depending on the installation.
