Chapter 3 - Hardware Installation Wi² Extender
3.5
The Power Injector IDU
The Wi² Extender receives power through its network cable connection using power-over-Ethernet
technology. A power injector IDU is included in the Wi² Extender package and provides two RJ-45
Ethernet ports, one for connecting to the Wi² Extender (Radio), and the other for connecting to a
local LAN switch (Ethernet).
The Ethernet port uses an MDI (i.e., internal straight-through) pin configuration. You can therefore
use straight-through twisted-pair cable to connect this port to most network interconnection devices
such as a switch or router that provide MDI-X ports. However, when connecting the Wi² Extender to
a workstation or other device that does not have MDI-X ports, you must use a crossover twisted-pair
cable.
AC Power Socket
(Hidden)
The Wi² Extender does not have a power switch. It is powered on when its Ethernet port is
connected to the power injector module, and the power injector module is connected to an AC power
source.
The Power LED indicates whether AC power is applied. The Link LED does not function in current
release of Wi² Extender.
In the current release, the Reset button does not function.
The power injector module automatically adjusts to any AC voltage between 100-240 volts at 50 or
60 Hz. No voltage range settings are required.
WARNING
The power injector module is designed for indoor use only. Never mount the power injector outside
