Connecting Cat5e Ethernet cable
Connecting an RJ45 and gland to a unit
Perform this task to connect the Ethernet cable to an AP.
To connect the Ethernet cable with a gland to an AP unit, proceed as follows:
1
Insert the RJ45 cable through the gland components
2
Insert the RJ45 plug into the socket in the unit, making sure that the locking tab snaps
home.
3
Support the drop cable and gently hand screw the gland body into the unit until the
bushing seal is flush to the unit body.
Note
Do not fit the back shell prior to securing the gland body.
4
Once the gland is fully hand screwed into the unit, tighten it one full rotation only with a 1
1/8 inch spanner wrench.
5
When the gland body has been fitted, tighten the gland back shell.
Caution
Do not over-tighten the gland back shell, as the internal seal and structure or RJ45 port
may be damaged.
