Altronix NetWay8 Installation Instructions - Manual (Page 2)

- 2 - NetWay8/NetWay16
Overview:
Altronix NetWay8/NetWay16 Midspans provide power and pass data for PoE compliant cameras/edge devices. Cameras/
edge devices may be located up to 100m (328 ft.) from the NetWay unit. A NetWayXT repeater module can be utilized to
extend the distance an additional 100m (328 ft.) for a total range of up to 200m (656 ft.). A maximum range of
600m (1968 ft.) is possible using multiple repeaters, based on camera/device port requirement. NetWay Midspans are
capable of supporting non-PoE compliant fixed and PTZ IP cameras utilizing NetWay1512 or NetWay3012 adapters.

Installation Instructions:
NetWay is not intended to be connected to outside plant leads.
1. Attach mounting brackets to NetWay unit for rack or wall mount installation (Figs. 7 or 8, pg. 10).
Affix rubber pads to NetWay for shelf installation (Fig. 9, pg. 10).
2. Secure the unit in a rack or place unit on a shelf as desired.
Note: The following factors should be taken into consideration when installing these rack mount units:
a. The unit is to be installed in a space where the maximum ambient temperature does not exceed 104ºF (40ºC).
b. Take care to insure there is sufficient air flow around the unit and that obstructions do not impede it.
c. When mounting units in rack, take care to avoid uneven loading which can cause a hazardous condition.
3. Set illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the (OFF) position (Fig. 1d, pg. 3).
4. Plug the grounded AC line cord (included) into the IEC 320 connector of the NetWay unit
(Fig. 1e, pg. 3). Plug unit into a reliable earth grounded socket. When using multiple units the sum of the individual
name plate ratings should not exceed the supply circuit rating.
5. Connect structured cables from port marked [IN] on NetWay to the corresponding inputs of an ethernet switch or
video server (Fig. 1b, pg. 3, Fig. 4, pg. 5).
6. Connect structured cables from port marked [OUT] on NetWay to PoE compliant camera/edge
devices (Fig. 1a, pg. 3, Fig. 4, pg. 5).
7. Upon completion of wiring set illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the RESET (ON)
position (Fig. 1d, pg. 3).
8. Port status LEDs on the NetWay will initialize when PoE devices are connected as follows:
- LED will illuminate when devices are IEEE 802.3af compliant.
- LED will blink once and illuminate when devices are IEEE802.3at compliant (PoE Plus).
