Installing The IDU
The IDU can only be mounted indoors. It should be mounted on any horizontal surface, such as a desktop or shelf. Be sure to
select a suitable location for the device within 100 m (328 ft.) of the ODU. Consider these guidelines:
• Select a cool, dry place, which is out of direct sunlight.
• The device must be near an AC power outlet that provides 100 to 240 V, 50 to 60 Hz with proper grounding.
• The device should be accessible for network cabling.
• The overall length of the Ethernet cables from the ODU to the IDU and from the IDU to the PC must not exceed 100m.
You must plan a cable route from the ODU to the IDU indoors. Consider these guidelines:
• Determine a building entry point for the cable.
• Determine if conduits, bracing, or other structures are required for safety or protection of the cable.
• For additional lightning protection, it is recommended to use a lightning arrestor immediately before the Ethernet cable enters
the building.
Connecting the Cables
Outdoor Connections
Connecting the Grounding Cable
Connect a grounding cable between the Ground terminal of the ODU (marked ) and a good ground connection.
Preparing and Connecting the IDU-ODU Cable
Use only Category 5E 4x2x24# FTP outdoor cables from an approved manufacturer. The cable provides pin-to-pin connection on
both ends.
