QUICK START USER GUIDE
NW8/NW8E
TECH SUPPORT: 1.888.678.9427
Step 1.
Unpack the mounting hardware from the box. Determine if this will be a pole or wall mount application.
The included Mounting kit is designed to support poles up to 3 in (7.6 cm) in diameter. If surface or wall mounting, the optional
NWBKT1 hardware will be required.
Step 3.
Slide the weather proof assembly over the cable so it can be
screwed into the enclosure gland. Make sure the rubber sealing
ring is in place as shown in step 2B.
Tighten the weather proof assembly into the enclosure and also
tighten the cap that squeezes the rubber washer over the Ethernet
cable as shown.
Step 2.
A. Route the RJ45 connectorized Ethernet cable through the
weather tight gland connection as shown at left.
Note: The slit rubber washer allows a pre-terminated
Ethernet cable to be used.
Once the cable has been routed through the weather
connection as shown above, push the split rubber gasket
into place and loosely screw the cap that goes over the
rubber washer.
B. Snap the RJ-45 connector in place as shown

Step 4.
A. Connect one end of an RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the OUT
port of the Power Injection Module (PIM) and the other end
to LAN of the access point.
Maximum length of the RJ-45 CAT5 cable is 100 meters
when powering only the Access Point. Maximum length
is 30 meters if Access Point powers an external Powered
Device.*
B. Connect the RJ-45 Ethernet cable attached to the PIM to a
network device, such as to a switch or to the PC you will use
to configure the access point.
C. Connect the power cord to the main electrical supply and
the IEC plug into the socket of the PIM.
PoE power input: Passive PoE (range 48 to 57 VDC)
The NW8[E] can also be powered by a suitable IEEE
802.3af/at PSE device such as a PoE switch or the included
CNGE1IPS injector.
D. Connect the RJ-45 cable from Port 2 on the access point to
an external PoE device, typically a camera as shown.
E. A Drip Loop is recommended as additional precaution
against moisture.
* Up to 200mW radio. For higher power radio upgrade to higher rating
power adapter.
