Ethernet Port
TheRJ45Et
hernetportislocatedonthebottompaneloftheremoteunit.ConnectionoftheEthernetportisnot
requiredfornormaloperationoftheDAS.TheportoffersconvenientaccesstothesystemGUIduringinstallation,
commissioningandtroubleshootingoftheDAS.EnsuretheprovidedIP67ratedprotectivecapisre
placedwhenthe
Ethernetportisnotinuse.
IftheEthernetc
onnectionistobelongtermorpermanent,ensurethattheappropriateEthernetpatchcableis
utilizedtopreventtheingressofmoisterintotheport.
TheEthernetportwil
lallowsfortwotypesofconnections.
1. Remoteunitisnotco
nnectedtotheFOIintheMasterUnit
 AccesswillbelimitedtotheRemoteUnit.UsermaychangesettingontheRemoteUnit.
 StaticIPaddressforlocalaccessishttps://169.254.48.1

Fiber Optic Connection
Thefiberc
onnectiononthebottomoftheremotehasanIP67ratedprotectivecap.Theprotectivecapmustremain
inplaceuntilthefiberistobeinserted.Thiswillhelppreventforeignparticlesfromdegradingperformanceofthe
fiber.
Thefi
berco
nnectionhasakeyedslotSC/APCconnection.Caremustbetakentoensurethefiberisinstalled
correctly.Itispossibletoforcetheconnectionsothatthefiberisinstalledata180degreerotationcausing
performanceissues.
Note: TheSC/
APCke
yisatthetopandbottomontheconnectionontheremote.

ItishighlyrecommendedthatonlytheSCRJfibercablesbeusedwiththeremotes.NotonlydoestheSCRJcable
preventtheingressofmoistureanddustintotothefiberportbutthecablealsoinsuresthefibersarecorrectly
alignedintheconnector.SCRJfibercablesareorderedseparatelyfr
