1 Read through these instructions fully before doing anything!

2 Using the instructions provided, configure the radio settings before installing outdoors.

3 Mount the optional mounting arm to an earth-grounded mast measuring approximately 1.5

to 2.5 inches in diameter. The mast must be securely mounted to the mast.

4 Attach the radio to the dish antenna mounting arm using the supplied “V” brackets and

nuts. The unit case must be grounded to earth via the bracket hardware.

WARNINGWARNING

USE EXTREME CARE WHEN INSTALLING ANTENNAS NEAR POWER LINES.

5 Construct or purchase a shielded twisted-pair (STP) CAT5 straight-through eight-conductor

Ethernet cable terminated with shielded RJ45 connectors long enough to go from the radio

along the mast or wall to the building entry point. Use conduit and a drip loop as

appropriate in accordance with the National Electrical Code.

6 Carefully connect the cable to the unit RJ45 input, tightening the flange around the cable

or conduit.

7 Install the Junction Box indoors near the entry point into the building. Plug the Ethernet

cable going to the radio into the ODU port (located above the power input). Plug the 20 V

wall mount adapter into the wall and then into the power input. This step will be

completed successfully when both LEDs illuminate steadily after approximately thirty

seconds.

8 Align the antenna for the desired coverage pattern. The elevation beamwidth is 10

degrees and the azimuth beamwidth is 60 degrees.

9 After the alignment is completed, fasten all nuts and bolts securely. Use cable ties on all

cables to prevent movement in windy conditions.

10 For protection against potential lightning damage, use an Ethernet lightning surge arrestor

in line with the STP cable at the entry point to the building. Install according to

manufacturer’s instructions.

CAUTIONCAUTION

DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE TRANSMITTER UNTIL THE ANTENNA IS

CONNECTED. PERMANENT DAMAGE MAY RESULT.
