Hardware Installation

1. Put an Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connector through the water-tight joint. Make the RJ-45 connector as a 568B
wiring configuration:

















2. Using the hardware provided mount the Mesh unit in position. Make sure that the antenna connection is facing
down. Keep in mind that the antenna cable needs to be as short as possible for maximum performance. Refer to
separate mounting guide sheet for illustrations of hardware assemble.

3. Plug water-tight joint side of the Ethernet cable into the Mesh unit. Connect the other end of the cable to the
power injector supplied with the unit. Also connect a standard RJ-45 network cable for the power injector to a hub
or a terminal.

3. There is a ground connection on the Mesh unit located near the antenna port. The ground connection should be
connected to a proper earth ground point.

4. Mount the external antenna for the Mesh unit. It is recommended that the antenna cable be as short as possible.
3 feet would be the most common length. Due to the limited RF power of the Mesh unit any added cable length will
lower the maximum system range.


Warning Do not mount Mesh unit or antenna near electric power lines,
electric lights or near strong electric power signals


5. Power the unit using the supplied POE inserter.
