Attach The Gateway to the Bracket
Use the provided mounting bracket and appropriate length
¼“diameter screws that are provided in the accessory kit to
attach the SecureMesh Gateway to the mounting pole (see
the figure on the right).
Before tightening, rotate the device to ensure there is ample
room for the omnidirectional antennas to clear the mount
stand and streetlight pole.
Attach the Ground Wire
•
Connect the Ethernet PoE cable to the Ethernet port at
the base of the Gateway, pushing the 8P8C into the
socket on the bottom of the Gateway until it locks into
place (as shown on the right). The Ethernet PoE cable
should be routed through the water protection gasket.
•
Loosen the ground screw at the base of the Gateway.
Remove a section of the insulation on the ground wire
that will attach to the ground point on the streetlight, and
wrap this section around the ground screw and tighten the
screw.
•
If the streetlight is completely metal, attach the other end
of the ground wire to the mounting hardware. If the
streetlight is a metal arm attached to a wooden pole the
ground wire must extend to a proper ground location.
