mimosa B6x Carrier Class PTP Radio
Required Items
- Mimosa N5-X series antenna
- Minimum 10 AWG (5.26 mm2) ground cable with pre-terminated ring terminal
- Mimosa Gigabit NID
- Small flat head type screwdriver
- Power over Ethernet injector compatible with B6x input power specifications
Attach Antenna
Mount the antenna by clockwise twisting into the radio threaded collar. Hand tighten until the O-ring seal is seated in the collar.
Tighten the B6x set screw.
If you are using the B6x standalone without an antenna, remove the set screw to allow drainage of any accumulated moisture in the threaded area.
Mount
Using 2 hose clamp type pole straps, attach the B6x to the desired mounting pole. If elevation adjustment is needed, a Mimosa Fleximount XL or J-Mount is suggested. Other mounting options may be available for purchase from Mimosa.
Grounding
Attach ground wire (not included) to the integrated grounding screw.
Dedicated 48VDC Power
- Thread an 18 AWG 2-pin cable through one the supplied IP67 gland/cap.
- Strip the wire jackets approximately 6-7mm, and attach to the supplied power connector terminals (+/- indicated in diagram). Tighten the terminal screws.
- Note: reverse polarization will not damage the device, however proper +/- wiring is required to apply power.
- Insert and snap the power plug and cable into the PWR port.
- Attach and tighten gland, attach the rubber insert to the cable, pushing it into the gland, then tighten the cap
Gigabit Ethernet or PoE
- Insert a shielded CAT6/6A Ethernet cable through the IP67 gland/cap. Connect the cable to ETH port. Attach and tighten gland, attach the rubber insert to the cable, pushing it into the gland, then tighten the cap.
- PoE powering is optional and can be used as primary or as redundant/backup power to the 48VDC. Ethernet connection is NOT required if SFP+ optical fiber is being used.
Optional Flexible Conduit
The provided IP67 gland caps are designed to accommodate optional 19mm (3/4”) inner diameter outdoor hose conduit/tubing, and hose-type clamps to secure the tubing. Both can be procured at most hardware stores.
Optional SFP+ Optical Fiber
Two SFP+ ports are provided to accommodate standard SFP+ 10 Gbps optical modules, and built-in switching between the ports for interconnectivity to other devices. Visit support for additional SFP+ module and configuration information.
Seal All Unused Ports
For any unused ports, tightly screw in the supplied port sealing caps to maintain the environmental integrity of the system.

- Installation of the product must comply with local and national electrical codes.
- Power specifications for connected devices are indicated on the device’s own label or documentation. Connecting to any power source that does not meet the voltage, frequency and current requirements listed may damage the power supply or product, and pose a fire hazard.
Mandatory Grounding Instructions
IMPORTANT: Failure to properly ground the device using the following instructions will violate the limited warranty conditions in this document.
- Required Step 1- Direct Grounding on the Device:
A minimum grounding wire of 10 AWG (5.26 mm 2) with a secured grounding terminal, and shorter in length than 1 meter is required. It is NOT supplied with the product.- Ensure that NO power is being supplied to the product.
- Locate the Ground point screw next to the Ground icon on the device
- Remove the provided Ground Screw
- Thread the ground wire terminal and ground wire meeting the above specifications over the screw removed in the previous step.
