There is one black connector coming out of the ZipLine. This
weatherproof connector is for the 4 pair Cat5e outdoor rated data cable
that is included.
Each outdoor ZipLine radio should be electrically grounded by use of a
ground lug installed on one of the bolts used to hold the ZipLine on the
pole mount brackets and run to a proper electrical ground. This is not
only a safety requirement for lightning dissipation purposes, but also
improves system radio performance, since the enclosure provides radio
shielding against unwanted radio and electrical noise on the Ethernet
connection.
Assuming that the outlet which the Teletics Power Injectors power
supply is properly installed according to electrical codes, no further
grounding points in the system is required. The electrical circuits for the
ethernet/data connections should NEVER be grounded. This includes all
connections in the power injector. Ethernet connections must “float”.
Cable Gland Assembly
Inside the accessory box that came with the
ZipLine, you will find 2 black cable glands that look
like this:
You should unscrew the two parts. You should
leave the small rubber O-ring where it is.
You will notice that the O-ring has a slit in it. This is to
allow the ethernet cable to be completely assembled on
the ground, prior to installing it on the radio.
