Section 2.9.2
Connecting the Data Adapter
The data adapter included with the base station provides both DC power and an Ethernet connection to the
network over a single Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) cable. It features the following ports:
•
LAN
– A 10/100Base-T RJ45 copper Ethernet port that connects with an IEEE 802.3 compatible network switch
or router. A standard CAT5-e cable is required.
•
ODU I/F
– A 10/100Base-T RJ45 copper Ethernet Power-over-Ethernet port that provides data and power to the
base station. A custom CAT5-e cable is required.
CAUTION!
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment. The power cord provided with the data adapter is
safety certified according to national rules. Do not use a power cord that has not been approved by
Siemens for use with the data adapter.
IMPORTANT!
Only use the supplied data adapter with the base station. Any other type of connection/application of
the base station and/or the supplied adapter is not permitted.
To connect the data adapter to the base station, do the following:
CAUTION!
Crushing hazard – risk of damage to equipment. Route all power supply cables so that people cannot
walk on them or place objects on or against them. This can pinch or damage the cords.
1. Connect a custom indoor-to-outdoor CAT-5e cable to the
ODU I/F
port on the data adapter. For information
on cable requirements, refer to
Section 3.6, “IDU-to-ODU Cable Specifications”
