Preparing the Base Station's Ethernet Cable

Use only Category 5e (or higher) outdoors Ethernet cable.
NOTE!
Use only shielded RJ-45 8-pin modular plugs.
Make sure that the length of the Ethernet cable is sufficient for reaching from the intended location of
the base station to the intended location of the indoor equipment.
The combined length of the outdoor Ethernet cable (from the base station to the PoE Injector) and the
Ethernet cable connecting the PoE Injector to the data networking equipment should not exceed 100
meters.
1
The unit is supplied with the sealing gland attached to the Ethernet (ETH) connector.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to remove the sealing gland base from the unit.
The USB port is for engineering purposes only. Ensure that the USB port is always properly sealed with
the plastic cap.
2
Unscrew the nut (use the extraction key supplied with the unit or an equivalent tool) and remove it
from the base.
3
Remove the rubber bushing (inner sleeve) from the base of the gland.
4
Remove the plug from the nut and feed the Ethernet cable through the nut and rubber bushing.
