Note that the overall system can have multiple devices that are interconnected via Ethernet cables, and these devices can each have separate connections to the AC outlet and local grounds at different points throughout the home. The OWA system is designed to block the surge current with potential surge paths protected with 6KV or 10KV isolation barriers. Any attempt to add grounds or grounded protectors to the system may actually weakens the surge resistance. The PoE cable should be physically separated by at least three feet from any other cable, such as power cables or lightning down-conductors. This separation will help avoid unwanted coupling of surge transients onto the PoE cable. IFWA-661 Outdoor Wireless Antenna Installation Guide v1.0 September 20, 2019 49 of 63 NetComm Wireless 2019 Powering the Outdoor Wireless Antenna Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a method of connecting network devices through Ethernet cable where power and data are passed along a single cable. It is therefore a convenient method of powering the Outdoor Wireless Antenna. The Antenna Power Supply provides Power over Ethernet to the Outdoor Wireless Antenna. 1 2 3 Note The Outdoor Wireless Antenna Power supply is packaged and supplied separately. To power the Outdoor Wireless Antenna:

The Ethernet cable connected to the Outdoor Wireless Antenna should terminate into an Ethernet wall jack that the technician installs in the home interior, then a separate Ethernet jumper cable is needed to run from the Ethernet wall jack to the Ethernet port labelled WALL on the Power supply. Use another Ethernet cable (not included in the package) to connect the Wi-Fi Gateway to the Router port of the POE-03. Connect the power cable to the POE-03 and then plug it in to an available wall socket. Examine the Power and ANTENNA LEDs of the POE-03 and compare them with the LED table below. When the POWER LED is red and ANTENNA LED is green, the Outdoor Wireless Antenna is correctly powered and connected.
