Connecting Ethernet
1. Press down on the indicator arrows and slide the Port
Cover off.
2. Connect a TOUGHCable or other outdoor, shielded
CAT5e/6 cable to the Data port.
3. Create a strain relief for the Ethernet cable by feeding
a cable tie through the tie slot under the cable. Then
wrap the cable tie around the cable and tighten.
4. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable from the
Data port to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the PoE
Adapter.
5. Connect an Ethernet cable from your network to the
Ethernet port labeled LAN on the PoE Adapter.
6. Connect the Power Cord to the power port on the PoE
Adapter. Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a
power source.
Note:
For added protection, we recommend
installing two GigE PoE surge protectors. Install
the first surge protector within one meter of the
airFiber Data port, and install the second surge
protector at the ingress point of the location
housing the wired network equipment.
Below is a diagram of a finished installation with
recommended surge protectors installed.
