Page 15: Chapter 2 Gateway Installation
▪ Installing the Gateway Gateway Installation — Overview The GrainVue outdoor communications gateway system comes with a pre-built and mounted MikroTik LtAP unit. Throughout this section, various antennas will need to be installed and connected to this base unit. A Gateway Power Supply Unit (PSU) is also provided to supply power remotely to the gateway over standard, shielded category 5e data cable. - Page 16 Chapter 2: Gateway Installation What You Should Know The Gateway PSU must be installed in a location that has sufficient air circulation around the box. Minimum clearance is 22" W x 27" H to ensure protection against electrical conducted noise. NOTE: Refer to the custom site map for the recommended PSU installation location.
- Page 17 Chapter 2: Gateway Installation 3. Using four self-tapping screws (1), mount the Gateway PSU (2) onto an appropriate structure in the location designated on your custom site map. Figure 2-3 Installing the Gateway PSU Self-tapping screws Ethernet Cable Gateway PSU Power Cable 4.
