Installing the Router

2. Some routers support Wi-Fi. To use the router’s Wi-Fi access point features, install a suitable

antenna to the Wi-Fi antenna connector on the router.

 The Wi-Fi antenna connection is reverse polarity. If you use a standard antenna on the Wi-Fi

connector, you can damage the antenna and the connector.

 Five Wi-Fi devices can concurrently use your Wi-Fi access point.

3. Using an Ethernet cable, connect one end of the cable to the ETHERNET connector on the back of

the router and the other end to your computer, either directly or through a switch or hub.

4. If you are connecting to a serial interface, connect the DE9 connector (9-pin) of the RS232 cable to

the RS232 connector on the router, then connect the other end to the serial port on the desired

device.

5. Some routers support the use of a GPS receiver. If you are using a GPS receiver with the router,

attach the GPS cable to the GPS connector on the router.

6. Attach a power cable to your power supply module.

7. Screw-on the power lead from the power supply module into the power connection on the router.

8. Plug the power supply into your power source.
