You will see a small 2-position slide switch near the RJ45 socket. If you are connecting the
wireless CPE directly to a computer network card or other Ethernet device, then slide this switch
toward the RJ45 socket. If you are connecting the wireless CPE to a hub or switch, then slide
this switch away from the RJ45 socket. Later, when you apply power to the unit, the second
green LED will indicate if this switch position was properly selected.
There are two small pushbutton switches on the PCB. These are only used if you wish to reset
the wireless CPE to factory default settings. (e.g. yo u forgot or lost the user name and/or
password)
Allow approximately 6 inches of CAT-5 cable between the grommet and the PCB, then tighten
the outside nut of the weatherproof grommet. Also ensure that the inside nut is secure. Make
sure that both the small antenna cable and the CAT-5 cable are secure, then re-attach the access
panel to the CPE rear panel before proceeding.
The Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) injector
The Telex Wireless CPE uses a PoE injector to supply DC power to the device. To test the
wireless CPE, install another RJ45 plug to the other end of your exterior CAT-5 cable and
connect this end to the PoE box in the socket marked ANTENNA. Also connect one end of the
supplied 7 foot CAT5 patch cable in the socket marked COMPUTER. The other end of this 7
foot cable will plug into the Ethernet port of your computer or into a hub or switch port. Plug the
supplied 12 volt 1 amp supply into a standard 110VAC outlet or power strip. Plug the other end
of this DC supply into the PoE box in the socket marked DC.
WARNING
: Make sure that the antenna is pointed away from any humans or animals while
power is applied! A safe distance is approximately
10
inches or more.
The PoE injector box may be placed on the floor or mounted anywhere near the computer, hub,
switch or router.
