Connect to Your Computer
Now that you have successfully powered on the SkyConnector, found your service provider’s network and decided
upon the optimal mounting solution, it is time to connect your computer to the SkyConnector and configure it
according to your service provider’s guidelines.
1.
Insert one end of the 7-foot CAT5 cable (I) into the Computer port of the Power Injector (B).
2.
Insert the other end of the 7-foot CAT5 cable (I) into the RJ-45 Ethernet port of your personal computer or
other Ethernet-capable network device such as a router, switch, or wireless access point.
Note:
Some service
providers may only allow use of a single computer on their network. Check with your service provider for the
terms and conditions of your specific service.
3.
If connected properly, the LAN Link light on the SkyConnector will appear to indicate an Ethernet link has
been established between the SkyConnector and your computer.

You have now successfully connected your computer and are ready to configure it for service. Please refer to your
service provider’s documentation or to your service provider for instructions on completing the configuration and
accessing the Internet and other services like Voice-over-IP (VoIP) that may be available on their network.
Important:
The SkyConnector, the Power Injector, and your computer all utilize RJ-45 connections for Ethernet. Do
not attempt to plug the CAT5 cable that is connected to the CPE port on the Power Injector into any device other than
the SkyConnector or plug the CAT5 cable that is connected to the Computer port on the Power Injector to into any
device other than your computer. Any other connection risks damage to the device being connected.
