Quick start
- Insert SIM card, chip facing UP towards Ethernet port.
- Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port, connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a PoE injector. Plug the PoE injector into your PC or into your local network switch. Plug the power adapter into the PoE injector to start your device.
- On your local network, open http://192.168.88.1 in your web browser to start configuration, since there is no password by default, you will be logged in automatically.
- Click the “Check for updates” button and update your RouterOS software to the latest version to ensure the best performance and stability.
- After an update please login again and set up your password.
PoweringThe device accepts 10-28 V DC input from passive Power over Ethernet injectors. The device does not work with IEEE802.3af compliant 48 V power injectors. A PoE injector is included in the package. Maximum power consumption 8 W.Connecting to a PoE Adapter:
- Connect the Ethernet cable from the device to the PoE+DATA port of the PoE adapter.
- Connect an Ethernet cable from your local network (LAN) to the PoE adapter.
- Connect the power cord to the adapter, and then plug the power cord into a power outlet.
Assembly
The device is compatible with standard offset dishes. Assemble Ethernet cable with cover as shown on the illustration:
- A rubber seal has been cut on the side so you can attach it to the Ethernet cable. It needs to be inside the Housing nut when assembling the compression nut will compress it to the Ethernet cable.
- Attach the unit to your dish, LDF mounting diameter is 40 mm. Please, ensure to placement with an arrow facing upwards.
- Plugin Ethernet cable and tighten the cover by screwing it clockwise.
Mounting
The device is designed to be used outdoors and mounted on the dish, with Ethernet cable connecting to the back of the unit.Please ensure to mount the LDF unit on the offset mount in the proper position – unit facing upwards to the dish.The dish will act as a reflector, amplifying the signal. The final position of your assembly should be placed and installed on the pole. For pole mounting instructions please refer to your dish mounting instructions.Please ensure that cable feed is pointing downwards.The IPX rating scale of this device is IP54. We recommend using Cat6 shielded cables.Warning! This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the device and your body. Operation of this equipment in the residential environment could cause radio interference.Mounting and configuration of this device should be done by a qualified person.
Extension slots and ports
- One Ethernet port, supporting automatic cross/straight cable correction (Auto MDI/X), so you can use either straight or cross-over cables for connecting to other network devices.
- MiniPCIe slot with an integrated modem.
- Mode button.
The reset button has three functions:
- Hold this button during boot time until LED light starts flashing, release the button to reset RouterOS configuration (total 5 seconds).
- Keep holding for 5 more seconds, LED turns solid, release now to turn on CAP mode. The device will now look for a CAPsMAN server (total 10 seconds).
- Or Keep holding the button for 5 more seconds until LED turns off, then release it to make the RouterBOARD look for Netinstall servers (total 15 seconds).Regardless of the above option used, the system will load the backup RouterBOOT loader if the button is pressed before power is applied to the device. Useful for RouterBOOT debugging and recovery.
Operating system support
The device supports RouterOS software version 6.46. The specific factory installed version number is indicated in the RouterOS menu /system resource. Other operating systems have not been tested.
