2.1.2 Power Injector-LR (Long Reach)
The Power Injector-LR is a self-contained functional unit suitable for indoor installation. It provides a
100 Base-T Ethernet link between the In-building LAN and the outdoor wireless unit (ODU). The
main function of Power Injector is to provide power onto the Ethernet connection to the ODU. The
Ethernet connection to the ODU is via two 75-ohm coax cables, the coaxial cables can be RG6,
RG59 or higher quality 75-ohm cable with a maximum length up to 100 meters. The indoor connection
to the local LAN uses standard category 5 twisted pair copper and can provide connectivity at lengths
up to 100 meters. The Power Injector is powered by the power adapter and supplies the DC voltage
into both coaxial cables powering the ODU.
Please note that these coaxial cables do not carry any RF (radio frequency) energy. All the RF is
contained within the Outdoor Unit or Bridge.
The Power Injector has three external interfaces:
1.
RJ45 connector for internal 100 baseT LAN interface.
2.
A pair of 75 ohm F-type coaxial connectors for 100 baseT interface to the wireless bridge
(ODU).
3.
DC power connector interfaced to the power adapter.
