13.6 Connecting a WiMag Access Point
For the 3U rack /100 variant, cabling to the access points outside the controller cabinet is
required. An Ethernet connection from the WiMag Rack Assembly provides the AP with
both power and data communication.
1. Access points connect to the WiMag rack assembly via an Ethernet cable. This
cable should be standard Ethernet compatible, outdoor rated, 4-pair CAT5 (or
better) with RJ45 male terminations.
2.
Ethernet cables, from the junction’s access points will enter the controller cabinet
through ducting at its base.
3. The cables will then travel up the cabinet and plugged into a spare PoE port. The
ports will be labelled ports 1 to 8.

to 8)
For the /200 and /300 Flexrack variants the access point
– FlexControl module – is pre-
installed on the rack inside the controller cabinet.
13.7 Additional Standard Interface Cards
Larger installations, with more than twenty detectors, will require additional interface
card(s). The standard interface card kits (667/1/47210/100) are shipped with a
corresponding back plane, link cable and interface cable.
To install the additional card:
1. Add the additional backplane alongside the existing backplane.
2. Set the new backplane with the card address; as per the configuration sheet.
3. Connect the link cable between the two backplanes.
