NetMetal series
Quick Setup Guide and Warranty Information
The NetMetal is a solid and waterproof outdoor device based on the RB92x wireless router model. It has high power wireless,
and one Gigabit Ethernet connector, which support MDI-‐X auto detection. The device has
two
or
three
RP-‐SMA connectors
for connecting external antennas (depends on model). The device is packaged with a 24V power adapter, a PoE injector and
two mounting loops. There are four models available – two Three-‐chain devices (with miniPCIe slot and without), and two
Dual-‐chain models (with miniPCIe slot and without). Extra places for more RP-‐SMA connectors are available on the unit in this
case.
First use
1.
Remove the lid, and connect the antenna to the RP-‐SMA connectors. Bend the cable with a large radius, so that it
will be able to exit through the cable openings in the bottom of the lid. Put the lid back
2.
Open the product bottom door, to reveal the Ethernet connector
3.
The device accepts 12-‐28V Passive PoE from a PoE injector (please compensate voltage for loss due to cable length)
4.
The default IP address from Ether1 is 192.168.88.1 for configuration
Username is
admin
and there is
no password
5.
Depending on the antenna used, you must set its gain in the RouterOS software to ensure that EIRP meets the limit
set by authorities. This is done in the Wireless menu.
Powering
The board accepts powering from the Ethernet port (Passive PoE):
•
Ethernet port accepts passive Power over Ethernet 12-‐28V DC.
Package contains a 24V adapter and a PoE injector.
Maximum power consumption of the device is 23W at 24V.
Booting process
Connect to wireless SSID “MikroTik” and open
192.168.88.1
in your web browser.
Username is
admin
and there is no
password. In case IP connection is not available, Winbox can be used to connect to the MAC address of the device. In case
your SSID is password protected, use the serial number as the wireless password.

In case you wish to boot the device from network, for example to use MikroTik Netinstall, hold the RESET button of the
device when starting it until the LED light turns off, and Metal will start to look for Netinstall servers.
Mounting
To tighten the device to a pole, use the provided metal hose clamp. Guide the loop around the device through the provided
holes, and around the pole where it will be mounted. You should avoid connecting a loose Ethernet cable to the Ethernet
port -‐ secure the cable to a wall or the pole, so that the cable weight is not pulling the port. It is recommended to secure the
Ethernet cable less than 2m from the device. This is to ensure that the cable doesn't damage the port by its weight, or
doesn't fall out. It is possible to connect grounding wires to the PCB board mounting holes, but to do this, you must remove
the PCB from the case.
Expansion Slots and Ports
•
Built in 5GHz 802.11ac wireless, AP/station/bridge modes supported
•
One 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet port, supporting automatic cross/straight cable correction (Auto MDI/X), so you
can use either straight or crossover cable for connecting to other network devices. The Ethernet port accepts 8-‐30V
DC powering from a passive PoE injector.
