4.0 INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION
4.1.
Cloudport Location Selection
Install Cloudport in a place where rain or harsh environments will not be present. Do not install Cloudport
in a completely sealed chamber, as the device requires ambient air movement for cooling. Cloudport’s
operating temperature range is 0 to 50 degrees C (32 to 122 degrees F).
Cloudport should be installed in a location near where the aircraft will be parked.
An Ethernet cable is provided with the product. If a longer cable is required, use Category 5 Ethernet cable
or better. The Ethernet cable connecting Cloudport to the internet access point must not exceed 300 feet.
To help installers select an optimal location for installation, Gogo has mapped signal strength according to
equipment location within a typical 25,000 square foot hangar. Refer to Figure 4.1.
Refer to the example signal strength map below when selecting a location to install Cloudport. The darker
green shaded areas represent stronger signal strength. Locate Cloudport to maximize signal strength at
aircraft to be serviced. Make sure aircraft maintains line of sight to Cloudport.
