The Top-Panel LED
The radio node has one top-panel tricolor (RGB) LED to indicate power and status. This is the only LED
visible under normal operating conditions. When the radio node initially boots the LED cycles through a
number of colors and flashing behaviors until it is fully operational. Status indications: boot, normal,
disabled, fault, emergency call, radio node tracking.

Input Power
The radio node receives its power from a standard Power Over Ethernet (PoE+) switch (typical) or injector.
The radio node is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ specification.
Per IEEE 802.3at, use standard Cat 5e or better twisted-pair cable with a maximum length restriction of
100 meters (328 feet) for PoE+. This restriction minimizes power loss between the PoE+ power source
and the radio node.
When connecting the radio node to a PoE+ switch, ensure that the switch port is statically configured to
deliver minimum 25W of power.
Power is distributed over two pairs of the four available pairs in Cat 5e or better cables. The
radio node can accept power on either used or un-used pairs.
Some PoE switches may be factory configured to deliver lower power per port. If this is the
case change the configuration during installation.
