3. Installation Procedure
Follow these steps to install the SpaceLink Home Gateway .
1. Determine the best location for the SpaceLink Home Gateway . Keep
in mind the following considerations:
•
The length of the Ethernet cable that connects the Home Gateway
to the network must not exceed 100 meters.
•
For standard placement, try to place the Home Gateway on a flat,
sturdy surface as far from the ground as possible, such as on top of
a desk or bookcase, keeping clear of metal obstructions and away
from direct sunlight.
•
Try to centrally locate the Home Gateway or its antennas so that it
will provide coverage to all of the wireless mobile devices in the area.
Orientating the antenna vertically should provide the best reception.
•
Use only the power supply that came with this unit. Other power
supplies may fit but the voltage and power may not be compatible.
It is the responsibility of the installer and users of the SpaceLink
Home Gateway to guarantee that the antenna is operated at least
20 centimeters from any person. This is necessary to insure that
the product is operated in accordance with the RF Guidelines for
Human Exposure which have been adopted by the Federal Com-
munications Commission.
2. Place the SpaceLink Home Gateway in the desired location. Wall
mounting or vertical standing is also possible for the SpaceLink Home
Gateway .
3. Attach one end of an RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the SpaceLink Home
Gateway WAN port and attach the other end to your ADSL or Cable
modem.
The SpaceLink Home Gateway does not support 100Base-TX; it only
supports 10Base-T. Hubs or switches that supports both 10Base-T
and 100Base-TX may be used.
4. Attach one end of the AC power adapter, included in the product package,
to the back of the SpaceLink Home Gateway and the other end to a
power outlet.
