[8PWR] Sockets and Indication Elements
GSM Slots
There are GSM ANT sockets on a front panel on the left to connect an external antenna and a SIM Card slot to
install a SIM card.
LAN Sockets
Ethernet 10/100 BASE-T port. A device has two such ports: one on a front panel and another one on a back panel.
Together they form a dual port Ethernet-switch. One port is used for a network connection, another one is used for
additional equipment connection (another NetPing device, administrator's laptop, etc.), which gives an opportunity
to avoid installing of an additional switch on a remote site. The ports are equivalent, anyone can be used for a
network connection.
Important! Connecting both ports to an Ethernet switch with a disabled STP protocol will cause to creation of a
loop in an Ethernet segment.
The Ethernet ports have two LEDs. A left one is CPU, its glowing means that a device is turned on, its blinking means
transferring packages to a network. A right one is Link, its lighting means having "link" on this port, its blinking
means receiving packages from a network.
RS485 Socket
An RS485 socket is used to connect RS485 devices. An RS485 port can work in one of two modes: either as an
RS485– Ethernet interface converter by a TCP protocol or in an electricity meter CE102 (Energy meter) protocol
analysis mode.
