5.2.2 Ethernet connections
Connect a CAT5 Ethernet cable between the port on the AWIN GW100 and the network
adapter card on your computer. Use either a crossover (C/O) or 1:1 cable as the radio has au-
tocross functionality. The cable should not exceed 100 m (329 ft.) in length. Alternatively, an
Ethernet switch can be used for connection.
5.2.3 Antenna connections
There is one antenna connector on the AWIN GW100 (see Figure 4 ). A single antenna is used
for the WirelessHART mesh network.
Observe the maximum RF power allowed in your country. Only use antennas
and cables recommended by ABB.
