Connecting Power over Ethernet
1. Lift the release latch on the bottom of the airFiberX
radio and slide the Port Cover off.
2. Connect an outdoor, shielded Ethernet cable to the
DATA port.
3. Connect the other end of the cable from the DATA port
to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the airFiber PoE
Adapter.
WARNING: Use only the included airFiber PoE
Adapter, Model: GP-H240-100G-4. Failure to do
so can damage the unit and void the product
warranty.
4. Connect an Ethernet cable from your LAN to the
adapter’s LAN port.
5. Connect the Power Cord to the adapter’s power port.
Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a power
outlet.
Mount the PoE Adapter (Optional)
1. Remove the Mounting Bracket from the adapter, place
the bracket at the desired location, and mark the
two holes.
2. Pre-drill the holes if necessary, and secure the bracket
using two fasteners (not included).
3. Align the adapter’s slots with the tabs of the Mounting
Bracket, and then slide the adapter down.
Surge Protection
For added protection, install two surge suppressors, such
as the Ubiquiti Ethernet Surge Protector, model ETH-SP,
at the end of each link. Install the first surge protector
within one meter of the airFiber DATA port, and install the
second surge protector at the ingress point of the location
housing the wired network equipment.
