! WARNING
AUTHORIZED ANTENNAS ONLY
Do not use unauthorized antennas with this equipment. Only the specified antennas
as outlined are permitted. Approval to operate the equipment is conditional upon use of authorized
antennas and correct installation.
Antenna Installation
Warning! The equipment and antenna must be professionally Installed in accordance with the
requirements specified in this document. See compliance section for list of authorized antennas.
When the equipment is mounted outdoors it must be fixed and mounted on outdoor permanent
structures and the antennas must not be co-located with any other antenna or transmitter device and
have a separation distance of at least 20cm from all persons.
Depending on the installation type used, the antenna can be connected directly to equipment or can be
mounted remotely. The remote antenna can be connected to the equipment using the optionally supplied
antenna cables. If the antenna or equipment is mounted outside, a surge arrester or multiple surge
arresters should be used as appropriate and according to local regulations.
Self-amalgamating tape must be used to seal the connections between gateways, surge arresters, and
antennas.
Plant Network Connection
NG Series Industrial Wireless Gateways can be connected to the plant network using an appropriate
ethernet cable with the supplied RJ45 cable connector housing or the optional accessory cable supplied
by Divigraph. The gateway can be connected to a PoE switch, PoE adapter or standard network switch.
When connecting to a standard switch, the device must be powered from an external power supply.
The RJ45 Ethernet connection uses industry standard wiring connections. Either a standard or cross-over
cable may be used when connecting the device.
You must use only compliant (IEEE 802.3at Type 1) power supply equipment that supports Mode B (or
midspan) and injects power on the Ethernet cable spare wire pairs and not on the data wire pairs.
When installing the gateway outdoors, you need to provide adequate UV protection for the network cable
connector. This can be done by making use of a suitable enclosure or by mounting the gateway upright
and using the optional network and power cable connection guard.
