Getting to know AT&T MetroCell
The AT&T MetroCell is an Alcatel-Lucent 9962 Multi-
standard Enterprise Cell v1.
Assembly
Find the 2 "stick" antennas in Box 2/5, each about 6 inches
long, and screw them into the connection points on the top
of the MetroCell.
Step 1: Mount AT&T MetroCell
To mount AT&T MetroCell to a wall:
The MetroCell is mounted on a wall with the aid of a
mounting plate. The mounting plate is first attached to the
wall with screws and anchors. The MetroCell is then hooked
onto the mounting plate and secured with 4 provided
screws. Additional details are provided in the MetroCell
9962 Installation Guide.
Step 2: Connect AT&T MetroCell
The following instructions explain how to set up an AT&T
MetroCell using the Power over Ethernet (4p PoE) injector.
Note: When PoE is used, the Ethernet cable which connects
the MetroCell to the PoE injector must be as provided:
shielded Cat5e, with metallic "boots" at each end.
• Secure the PoE injector to an equipment rack (if available,
customer-provided) or other fixture.
• Connect the PoE injector to an available port on your
router or Ethernet switch, using the 10-foot Ethernet
cable provided in the kit.
• Connect the MetroCell to the PoE injector using the 150-
foot Ethernet cable.
• Connect the GPS antenna cable to the MetroCell, using
the provided 70 ft. extension if needed. Do not use your
own cable or more than one extension.
• Route the GPS antenna towards the nearest window and
secure the end to a horizontal surface to hold it in place.
• Secure all cables.
• Connect the PoE power supply cord to the PoE injector
and plug the cord into a 110V power outlet.
AT&T MetroCell 9962 Quick Start Guide, April 2016
The MetroCell MUST be powered by one of the
provided options: either the Power over Ethernet
(4p PoE) injector or the AC/DC power adaptor. Do
NOT use both at the same time, and do NOT use
Power over Ethernet from a router or switch.
