4.1.5 IP Backhaul Cable Installation
A backhaul cable must be routed from the backhaul device to the microBTS enclosure. The
backhaul cable must be terminated with a hardened RJ-45 male connector for connection to the
microBTS backhaul port. The maximum cable length is 300 feet (91.4 m).
Use the following procedure to install the backhaul cable:
1 Remove the dust cap from the RJ-45 connector located at the bottom of the enclosure as
shown in Figure 4-3.
2 Route the backhaul cable from the backhaul device to the underside of the enclosure.
3 Align the plug end of the RJ-45 cable connector with the RJ-45 port receptacle and then
insert the cable plug into the port receptacle.
4 Slide the connector nut up to the port until it engages the connector locking mechanism.
5 Tighten the connector nut in a clockwise direction (if necessary, use a wrench or pliers to
grip the connector nut) until it snaps past the detent position and locks into place.
