Indoor ROCK Pi Hotspot FAQs

 

 

What is the antenna connector on the Hotspot?

 

 

Can I add 4G connectivity to my Indoor Hotspot?

 

 

How much internet data per month does the Hotspot use?

 

 

What antenna is included with the Hotspot?

 

 

How long does it take for my Hotspot to sync with the network?

 

 

I have an issue but not listed here?

 

 

What is the antenna connector on the Hotspot? 

The indoor unit has a 

RP-SMA Female

 Connector on.

 

Can I add 4G connectivity to my Indoor Hotspot? 

No, the indoor unit does not have the ability to have a 4G Modem added, you could use a solution like a 
MiFi or 4G to Ethernet module to achieve the same result. 

How much internet data per month does the Hotspot use? 

Currently we are roughly estimating 30-50GB per month. 

The actual usage may be slightly less or more and will be something we up-date over time as we start 
measuring more units. 

Once all hotspots become "light hotspots" this data usage will reduce. 

What antenna is included with the Hotspot? 

A 3dBi Omni-directional antenna is included with the Nebra Indoor Hotspot, specifications can be found in 
this manual 

Upgraded antennas can be 

purchased separately from our website

Can I use PoE with the Indoor Hotspot? 

If you wish to use PoE with the Indoor Hotspot you will require an active PoE splitter that outputs 12V to 
the unit. Alternatively you can use passive PoE adapters as long as the power provided to the unit is 
between 9 and 16 Volts and can provide 15W of power. 

 

How long does it take for my Hotspot to sync with the network? 

This can vary depending on your internet connection speed. However, in our testing it takes approximately 
24-48 hours for the initial synchronisation to be completed.
