Chain 0 / Chain 1

Signal LEDs

Low-Band Duplexer

High-Band Duplexer

When the Chain 0 or Chain 1 duplexer is installed, its N-type connector is located here,

allowing connection to an RF cable (Chain 1 is covered by the removable duplexer cap).

Signal 4

LED will light blue when on.

Signal 3

LED will light green when on.

Signal 2

LED will light yellow when on.

Signal 1

LED will light red when on.

Bootup to airOS

When powering on, the Power, MIMO, LINK, and Signal 1-4 LEDs light

on. Once the CPU code takes over, the MIMO, LINK, and Signal 1-3 LEDs turn oﬀ. Signal 4
