ELPRO-415U-2-CX-Long-Range-Wireless-Ethernet-Gateway-PRODUCT

Product Usage Instructions

  • When selecting an antenna, consider radio proximity.
  • Follow Figure 1 as a guide for installing the antenna and attaching it to the 415U-2-Cx.
  • Connect the Coax to the building earth by IEC60728-11:2005 standards.
  • Ensure proper grounding by following the guidelines provided.
  • Attach the antenna to the mast securely.
  • Create a stress relief loop to prevent damage to the coaxial cable.
  • Install a surge arrestor for protection (recommended).
  • Use weatherproof connections (recommended: 3MTM 23 self-bonding tape) for durability.
  • Maintain a minimum of one wavelength distance between components.
