Installation
Installation Options
The FerIT Node and the FerIT Solar Node are mounted on a pole using a suitable mounting bracket.
You can mount the FerIT to an existing pole, or use the optional star picket or ground screw
mounting options. The FerIT should be mounted at least 1.5m off the ground, and above nearby
crops or objects where possible.
FerIT Node Installation
The FerIT Node can be connected to a mounting bracket using one of the following options
depending on the bracket design:
• Two M5 bolts on the base of the FerIT Node. This is the most common mounting option.
• Two button head bolts on either side of the antenna. Remove the FerIT Node cover to access
these mounting screws.
