Installing the ERU
7
Route the RG-6/U coaxial cable through the building and insert it into the
F-connector on the back of the SOMAport.
8
Seal the access point into the building with silicone sealant.
9
Turn on the SOMAport.
The SOMAport takes a few minutes to start and connect to the network.
Make sure the SOMAport is operational. When the Status light turns solid green,
the SOMAport has acquired a radio channel and is operational.
10
Look at the light next to the F-connector on the back of the SOMAport to make
sure it is using the ERU.
If the light is green, the ERU is being used.
If the light is off, the internal SOMAport antenna is being used.
11
Test the equipment that is attached to the SOMAport.
