8.Network/Power Injector

The network /power injector is used to combine the data stream and power into one cable. It has three ports. The port named POWER is for 48V power from the switching power adapter. The port named TO LAN is connected the customer premises equipment (CPE) by Cat-5 cable. The port named TO RADIO is connected to the outdoor unit by the cable described in item 5.

9.Antenna Alignment Kit (Option)

Two ExpWave 240B with the flat panel antennas should perform antenna alignment before the normal operation. If the antenna alignment is not done well, the received signal strength will be smaller and the link quality will be not good enough to support high-speed data communication. The antenna alignment kit is connected to the outdoor unit through the RS-232 cable. You should modify the vertical and horizontal angle of the panel antenna according to the signal strength indication of the antenna alignment. The physical appearance of the antenna alignment is shown below.
