NetWayG 

- 3 -

Overview:

Altronix NetWay8G, NetWay8GP and NetWay16G Networked Managed Midspans provide PoE/PoE+/Hi PoE 

(up to 60W) power per port, and pass data at 10/100/1000 Mbps at distances up to 100m . Features also include an 

integral battery charger for applications requiring backup and embedded LINQ Technology to monitor, control, 

and report power and diagnostics from anywhere .

Features:

   Installation  Instructions:

Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National 
Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA70), local codes, and the au-
thorities having jurisdiction . NetWayG unit is not intended 
to be connected to outside plant leads . These products are 
for indoor use only and must be installed within the pro-
tected premises . If battery bracket is removed, then the unit 
must be installed in a restricted access area (Fig. 1b, pg. 3) .
1 . Attach mounting brackets to NetWayG unit for rack 
  or wall mount installation (Fig. 5 or 6, pg. 8) .
  Affix rubber pads to NetWayG for shelf installation 
  (Fig. 7, pg. 8) .
2 .  Secure the unit in a rack or on a wall, or place unit on a shelf as desired .
 

Note: The following factors should be taken into consideration when installing these rack mount units:

  a .  The unit is to be installed in a space where the maximum ambient temperature does not exceed 104ºF (40ºC) .
  b .  Take care to ensure that there is sufficient air flow around the unit and that obstructions do not impede it .
  c .  When mounting units in a rack, take care to avoid uneven loading which can cause a hazardous condition .
3 .  Plug the grounded AC line cord (included) into the IEC 320 connector of the NetWayG unit (Fig. 2g, pg. 4) . 
  Plug unit into a reliable earth grounded socket . When using multiple units, the sum of the individual name plate 
  ratings should not exceed the supply circuit rating . 
 

Do not connect to a receptacle controlled by a switch.

4 .  Connect structured cables from port marked [IN] on NetWayG to the corresponding inputs of an ethernet 
  switch or video server (Fig. 2b, pg. 4, Fig. 4, pg. 6) .
 

Note: All cabling and wire must be UL Listed and/or Recognized wire suitable for their application .

5 .  Connect structured cables from port marked [OUT] on NetWayG to PoE compliant camera/edge devices 
  (Fig. 2a, pg. 4, Fig. 3, pg. 5) . 
6 .  When the use of stand-by batteries is required, they must be sealed lead acid or gel type . Connect four (4) 
  12VDC batteries in series to terminals marked [+ BAT –] (Fig. 2h, pg. 4), carefully observing polarity .
 

Note: When batteries are not used a loss of AC will result in a loss of output voltage .
