Power Supply
Portal Gateways must be located where they can receive 12 VDC power from a
transformer plugged into a dedicated power source. If this is not possible, ensure
they are plugged in to a 24/7 power circuit that cannot be turned off at a switch,
such as a light switch that might be turned off by a cleaning crew.
To make your final determination, you must also consider the following:
 Access to Ethernet 10/100 Base T network connection.
 Proximity to other I/O device(s) if used.
 Placement within range of controllers.
Note Actual distances will vary based on building construction.
