2 - 26 MPact Location & Analytics Hardware Installation Guide
The charger is designed so a DC power cable can be installed from the rear of the charger housing without removing the base.
The cable and connector do not interfere with the base lying flat on any surface. The DC cord snakes through strain relief
features in the housing to prevent accidental disconnects. The external power adapter DC cable terminates with a right-angle
connector at the charger interface.
