7.3 Weatherproofing the Ethernet and Console Connections
If the CONSOLE port is not to be permanently connected then it should remain tightly capped
for the time-being. A serial cable, a 6” Cat-5 cable, and a DB9 to RJ-45 adapter has been
supplied with the PureWave Quantum Basic DC Installation Kit for bring-up and provisioning
purposes utilizing the CONSOLE port. Please refer to the PureWave Quantum User Manual
for additional information.
A set of three RJ-45 IP67 weatherproof housing assemblies have been supplied as part of the PureWave
Quantum Basic DC Installation Kit for the purpose of weatherproofing the Ethernet and console
connectors. The procedure for installation of the housing onto each cable and connector is provided
below. Note that at least one end of the cable should be crimped with a RJ-45 connector only at the end
of the procedure.
Please refer to Figure 16 during the following procedure, as it shows the interconnection and orientation
of each part in the assembly.
