Connect the FlightStation with the M12 connector using Cat5e or better 
ethernet cable. It is recommended to use shielded Cat5e cable to protect 
against EMI interference depending on your installation location.   

Seat M12 plug into the FlightStation M12 receptacle then install and tighten 
the connector as shown.  M12 X Code cables can be sourced to 
accommodate longer installation runs.  Alternatively, a shielded, waterproof 
coupler can be installed to extend a cable run to the POE switch/injector 
location.   

Mount FlightStation as high on the pole as possible, preferably at the top 
with an unobstructed 360° view of the sky. 

Secure the ethernet cable to the FlightStation mounting arm or to the pole 
using a zip tie in a drip loop configuration for strain relief.
