Chapter 3: Installation
3.4.5 Connect to the Extender
To be able to configure and manage the extender, do the following:
1. Open the ferrite core by unsnapping the connector latches. The core will open, revealing a concave surface.
Figure 3-10. Open the connector latches.
2. Lay the Ethermet cable into the core, usually within 2 to 3 inches of the connector.

3. Loop the cable around and through the core. This helps “lock” the core in place, and may be required in circumstances with
severe interference.
