Antenna Installation
WARNING
PROFESSIONAL ANTENNA INSTALLATION ONLY
The equipment and antenna must be professionally installed
in accordance with the requirements specified in this
document. See the compliance section for a list of authorized
antennas.
When the equipment is mounted outdoors it must be fixed and mounted on outdoor
permanent structures and the antennas must not be co-located with any other antenna or
transmitter device and have a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons.
Depending on the type used, antennae can be connected directly to Ranger Pro Gateways or
can be mounted remotely. Remote antennae can be connected to Ranger Pro Gateways using
the optionally supplied antenna cables. If the antenna or equipment is mounted outside, a
surge arrester or multiple surge arresters should be used as appropriate and according to local
regulations.
Self-amalgamating tape must be used to seal the connections between gateways, surge
arresters, and antennae.
Plant Network Connection
Ranger Pro Gateways can be connected to the plant network using an appropriate ethernet
cable with the supplied RJ45 cable connector housing or the optional accessory cable supplied
by Bently Nevada. The gateway can be connected to a PoE switch, PoE adapter, or standard
network switch. When connecting to a standard switch, the device must be powered from an
external power supply.
The RJ45 Ethernet connection uses industry standard wiring connections. Either a standard or
cross-over cable may be used when connecting the device.
You must use only compliant (IEEE 802.3at Type 1) power supply equipment that
support Mode B (or midspan) and injects power on the Ethernet cable spare wire pairs
and not on the data wire pairs.
