Ethernet Port
The RJ45 Ethernet port is located on the bottom panel of the remote unit. Connection of the Ethernet port is not
required for normal operation of the DAS. The port offers convenient access to the system GUI during installation,
commissioning and troubleshooting of the DAS. Ensure the provided IP67 rated protective cap is replaced when the
Ethernet port is not in use.
If the Ethernet connection is to be long term or permanent, ensure tha
t the appropriate Ethernet patch cable is
utilized to prevent the ingress of moisture into the port.
The Ethernet port allows for two types of connections.
1. Remote unit is not connected to the FOI in the Master Unit
Access will be limited to the Remote Unit. User may change setting on the Remote Unit.
Static IP address for local access is http://169.254.48.1
Username: "extended"
Password: "admin"
2. Remote Unit is actively connected to the FOI in the Master Unit
Full access to all GUI features will be allowed
Access will require the Master Unit IP address: https://172.22.0.1
Username: "extended"
Password: "admin"
Fiber Optic Connection
The fiber connection on the bottom of the remote has an IP67 rated protective cap. The protective cap must remain
in place until the fiber is to be inserted. This will help prevent foreign particles from degrading performance of the
fiber.
The fiber connection has a keyed slot SC/APC connection. Care must be taken to ensure the fiber is installed
correctly. It is possible to force the connection so that the fiber is installed at a 180 degree rotation causing
performance issues.
Note: The SC/APC key is at the top and bottom on the connection on the remote.

It is highly recommended that only the SCRJ fiber cables be used with the remotes. Not only does the SCRJ cable
prevent the ingress of moisture and dust into to the fiber port but the cable also insures the fibers are correctly
aligned in the connector. SCRJ fiber cables are ordered separately from Bird Technologies.
