Line Protector Unit Wiring
This section describes the steps required to install the Ethernet line protector. The
primary unit should be mounted as close as possible to where the Ethernet cable enters
the building/shelter, on a plate or bulkhead panel that is bonded to an earth-ground
system. It is recommended to pre-wire the LP device and test all connections before final
outdoor installation.
Do not install during adverse weather conditions when the threat of a
lightning strike is possible.
Connect the LP unit according to the direction it is labeled:
SURGE:
Connection to outdoor RDL-3000
PROTECTED:
Connection to indoor PoE.
Do not switch Ethernet wires coming in and going out. For
–IG (isolated ground) units,
the connections are marked 2 X FEED and 2 X RTN (RETURN). The LP unit may be
mounted/grounded on a nearby plate or bulkhead panel that is bonded to an earth-
ground system.
1. Ground the chassis of the line protector with the provided 2 X 8-32 screws.
2. Terminal Block:
Wire gauge: 22-26 AWG
Wire strip length: 0.25”
Impact Tool (110 Connect): AMP 569994-1, AT&T D-814, or Krone universal wire
insertion tool.
Screw-type terminal block: Use tightening torque 0.25 N-m (2.21 lb-in).
3. Lid:
Gasket: Ensure neoprene gasket is not loose and is properly fitted in groove.
Fasteners: 4 X M4 X 20 mm screws
Tightening torque 1.24 N-m (11 lb-in).
4. Outdoor Units:
