It is always a good idea to first provision and test the radios on the bench before deploying them in the field.  This is a 
particularly useful exercise for the novice user. 

 

•  Connect a Cat-5 (straight through) Ethernet cable (we recommend shielded twisted pair) between the ODU (out 

door unit) port of the J-box and the RJ-45 connector on the radio.  Note that this cable will carry power-over-
Ethernet (PoE).   

 

•  If connecting to a COMPUTER, use a Cross-Over Ethernet cable from the NET port of the J-box to the 

computer’s Ethernet port. 

 

If connecting to a HUB, SWITCH, or ROUTER, use a Straight-Thru cable. 

 

• 

Plug the AC adapter into an AC outlet.

Both green LEDs on the J-box should be lit, indicating power is present at the Power-over-Ethernet box as well as at the 
radio. 
 
You are now ready to configure the radio via the Ethernet port.  After reboot, the Radio Power LED may take several 
seconds before lighting.  The radio requires approximately 45 seconds to completely start up.
