Physical Installation

Connecting to the Site Network with Local Power

Using an Ethernet cable, connect the WAN port on the Accelerated 6300-CX to your site Gateway. By default a DHCP request will be sent to the WAN Ethernet network.

  1. Plug the power supply unit into an AC power outlet and connect to the 12V DC lead (4 pin connector) of the POE injector cable.
  2. Using the include CAT5 cable or a customer provided CAT5 cable connect to your site router or gateway and the WAN port of the 6300-CX.

Connecting to the Site Network with Remote Power

If your device needs to be positioned some distance from either the nearest AC power outlet or site network equipment/router using the included passive Power-Over-Ethernet (POE) injector cable will usually simplify the installation cabling and allow for improved cellular signal strength. The POE injector cable allows the DC power and Ethernet connection to be run to the Accelerated 6300-CX via the Ethernet connection only.

  1. Plug the power supply unit into an AC power outlet and connect to the 12V DC lead (4 pin connector) of the POE injector cable.
  2. Connect the male RJ45 connector plug of the POE injector cable to the site network equipment/router.
  3. Connect a standard Ethernet cable from the RJ45 socket/jack on the POE injector cable, (marked ‘DC OUT’), to the Ethernet port of the device

Remote Power Trouble Shooting

On the end of the POE injector cable (see diagram) there are two LEDs. The Red LED marked DC IN will be

illuminated if the 6300-CX Power Supply Unit (PSU) in plugged into an AC power outlet and plugged into the POE Injector Cable. If the red LED is not illuminated check the following:

  • Ensure that the PSU is plugged into an AC power outlet and is receiving power.
  • Ensure that the PSU’s power plug is correctly connected to the POE injector cable power input socket. The proper orientation is for the lock tab and clip to align. (See picture below)

The Red LED marked DC IN and the Green LED marked DC OUT will both be illuminated on the POE injector cable (see diagram) if you have properly connected the PSU and you have connect a length of CAT5 cable properly to the POE injector cable and the 6300-CX. If the red LED is illuminated and the Green LED not illuminated check the following:

  • Ensure that you have a good connection at both the ends of you CAT5 cable.
  • Check your CAT5 cable.
