User Manual

1) Keep the transmission path as open as possible. Objects such as walls and metallic

objects near the transmission path reflect signals and may reduce the transmission

distance.

2) Do not add additional lengths of cable to connect the to the antenna as significant

losses in signal and reduced transmission range will occur.

3) Mount the transceiver on the dish mounting pole as shown in Figure 1.

4) Connect the antenna cables, paying attention to the polarization shown on the feed.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The transmitter uses a non-standard jack to connect to

the transmitter antenna. Any modification to this jack may void the user’s

authority to operate the equipment and will void the manufacturer’s warranty.

5) Connect the STP run no longer than 150 feet – Use straight through 8 conductor cat 5

cable, making sure that the RJ45 terminations are shielded.

6) Use standard outdoor to indoor drip loop and grounding per National Electrical Code

and electrical conduit if appropriate.

7) Connect the Junction Box to an interior wall near the entry point of the cable.

8) Plug the STP cable into the ODU port of the Junction Box.

9) Plug the wall mount power adapter into the Junction box.

10) Plug the wall mount adapter into the wall outlet.

11) The LEDs on the Junction box should both be on, indicating that the power is coming

into the junction box properly and that the outdoor transceiver is powered up properly.

Check the wiring if this is not the case.

ANTENNA ALIGNMENT

Once the power to the transceiver is verified, align the antenna by aiming it towards the

base station until the yellow LED blinks as fast as possible or turns completely solid. This

indicates a very strong signal from the base station. If the Yellow LED is lit up at all, the

signal is not being received or the antenna is aimed far away from the base station. The

beamwidth of the antenna is about 7 degrees, so small movements of the antenna can

create large changes in signal strength.

CONNECTION VERIFICATION

After the alignment is completed, an Ethernet cable can be connected to the “NET” port

of the Junction Box and then to a switched hub or PC network card. A crossover cable

will be required if connecting to a PC NIC.

CAUTION CAUTION DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE TRANSCEIVER WITHOUT

THE ANTENNA SECURELY ATTACHED.
