2.2 Wall Installation

Step 1:

Once you have completed steps 1 to 12 in section 2.1, find a suitable installation location on the wall.

Step 2:

After the aforementioned location has been found, use four screws to affix the wall mounting bracket to the wall.

Visual description: An image shows a wall mounting bracket, which is an angled arm with a base plate, ready to be attached to a wall.

Step 3:

Adjust the mounting pole until the desired angle is achieved, then tighten the hinge screws on the pole to 100 ± 10 kgf-cm torque. Note: Use a spirit level to ensure that the mounting pole is perpendicular to the ground.

Visual description: A diagram shows the mounting pole being adjusted at an angle against a wall, with a spirit level indicating perpendicularity. Arrows show hinge screws.

Step 4:

Align the mounting pole with the mounting slot on the rear cover of the Gateway's waterproof enclosure, then slide the pole into the slot.

Once the pole is in the slot, place two M10-1.5 screws into the screw holes shown in the image below, then tighten the screws to 60 ± 10 kgf-cm torque.

Visual description: A diagram shows the pole attached to the enclosure, with arrows pointing to two screw holes where M10-1.5 screws should be inserted and tightened.

Step 6:

Use the cable management clips on the mounting pole and wall mounting bracket to route the Ethernet cable (refer to images below).

Visual description: Two images show cable management clips on the pole and bracket, with an Ethernet cable being routed through them.

Step 7:

Use a M4-0.7 screw to attach the grounding cable to the rear cover of the enclosure. Tighten the screw to 10 kgf-cm torque.

Visual description: A diagram shows a grounding cable being attached to the rear cover of the enclosure with a screw.

Step 8:

Route the grounding cable through the cable management clips on the pole (refer to the image below).

Visual description: A diagram shows the grounding cable being routed through clips on the mounting pole.

Step 9:

Place the plastic bracket cover over the wall mounting bracket (refer to the image below). Make sure the cables are going straight down.

Visual description: Two images show a plastic cover being placed over the wall mounting bracket, ensuring cables are routed downwards.

Step 10:

Check the LED indicator on the Gateway to make sure it is functioning normally.

Chapter 3: Connecting the 5G Internet Gateway

This section describes how to set up and configure your 5G Internet Gateway.

3.1 Setting up the 5G Internet Gateway

1. Complete the steps in section 2.1 of chapter 2 (if installing the Gateway on the ground) or the steps in section 2.2 of chapter 2 (if installing the Gateway on a wall).
2. Plug the Ethernet cable coming from the Gateway into the Ethernet port on the surge protection unit (SPU).
3. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the SPU to a Router.

3.2 Connection Scenario for the 5G Internet Gateway

Visual description of the connection scenario: The diagram illustrates the network setup. A 5G CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) is mounted outdoors. A PoE (Power over Ethernet) injector is used. The CPE connects via an Ethernet cable to a Surge Protection Unit (SPU), which is then connected to a Router. The Router provides Wi-Fi connectivity for Wi-Fi clients (on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands) and Ethernet connectivity for Ethernet clients.
