RF Cable Installation
The Kona Micro Outdoor Gateway installation requires connection to a LoRa RF antenna. The
RF cable attaches to the N-Type connector located on the bulkhead of the Gateway. Torque the
connector to 1.7 to 2.3 Nm (15 to 20 in·lbs). The N-Type connector interface to a cable is not
water proof and must be taped to be used outdoors. TEKTELIC recommends taping with Scotch
Wireless Weatherproofing Kit, WK-101. Follow the taping procedures outlined by the supplier
of this tape system.
Note that the 3G/4G modem antenna is internal to the Kona Micro Outdoor Gateway.

Copper Ethernet Cable Installation
The Kona Micro Outdoor Gateway Ethernet port may be used on a temporary basis for
commissioning and maintenance or may be permanently connected for backhaul. When the
port is not in use, the weatherproof protective cap must be installed. When the port is
permanently connector for backhaul, the proper water-tight mating connector specified in
Table 2 must be used.
The Ethernet cable must have minimum 24 AWG conductors and shall be rated for outdoor
application according to local and national electrical codes.
