CAUTION!
The ADTRAN Enterprise LoRaWAN gateway is intended for indoor use only. Ethernet, PoE cables, and attached equipment are intended for use within
the same building with equipotential bonding, and not intended to be placed in separate buildings or structures. Failure to deploy as described could result
in permanent damage from lightning or other electrical events and voids the warranty.
Prior to Installation
Before installing the equipment, inspect the gateway. If damage has occurred during shipping, file a claim with the carrier, and then contact ADTRAN
Customer Support. For more information, refer to the product warranty available online at https://adtran/wp_support_warranty.
Installing the Antenna
To install the provided antenna onto the LoRaWAN gateway, attach the external antenna onto the antenna port on the left side of the gateway (as shown
in
Figure 1
on page 1).
Mounting the LoRaWAN Gateway to a Ceiling or Wall
The LoRaWAN gateway should be positioned for maximum coverage and range between other gateways and wireless client devices. Follow these
instructions to mount the LoRaWAN gateway to an interior ceiling or wall using the enclosed ceiling/wall mounting kit:
1. Drive the short screws into the metal screw receptacles on the bottom of the LoRaWAN gateway until they are inserted into the keyed slots on the
mounting bracket. If extra space is required, use the spacers and long screws provided with the T-rail mounting hardware kit to increase the space
between the unit and the mounting bracket. Leave enough of the long screws exposed above the spacer to ensure they can be inserted into the
keyed slots on the mounting bracket.
2. Using the plastic mounting bracket as a template, mark the location to insert the screw anchors.
3. Press the point of the screw anchors into the sheetrock at the marks and drive them into the wall using a Phillips-head screwdriver.

NOTE
When installing the LoRaWAN gateway into the wall, be sure that the wall anchors are oriented vertically so that the cables will be pointing downward in
the final installation.
4. Insert the long screws through the recessed holes in the plastic mounting bracket and drive them into the metal anchors.
5. Mount the LoRaWAN gateway on the mounting bracket by inserting the screws on the back of the gateway into the keyed slots on the mounting
bracket and rotating the unit counterclockwise 45 degrees to secure it on the bracket.
