1. SAFETY INSTRUCTION
1. Safety Instruction
Please, observe the following instructions:
•The router must be used in compliance with all applicable international and national laws
and in compliance with any special restrictions regulating the utilization of the router in
prescribed applications and environments.
•To prevent possible injury and damage to appliances and to ensure compliance with
all relevant provisions, use only the original accessories. Unauthorized modifications or
the use of unapproved accessories may result in damage to the router and a breach
of applicable regulations. Unauthorized modifications or use of unapproved accessories
may void the warranty.
•The router can not be opened.
•Turn off the router and disconnect it from power supply before handling of the SIM card.
•Caution! The SIM card could be swallowed by small children.
•Input voltage must not exceed 36 V DC max.
•Do not expose the router to extreme ambient conditions. Protect the router against dust,
moisture and high temperature.
•The router should not be used in locations where flammable and explosive materials
are present, including gas stations, chemical plants, or locations in which explosives
are used. We remind the users of the duty to observe the restrictions concerning the
utilization of radio devices at such places.
•Switch off the router when traveling by plane. Utilization of the router in a plane may
endanger the operation of the plane or interfere with the mobile telephone network, and
may be unlawful. Failure to observe these instructions may result in the suspension
or cancellation of telephone services for the respective client, or, it may result in legal
sanctions; it may also result in both eventualities.
•When using the router in the close proximity of personal medical devices, such as cardiac
pacemakers or hearing aids, you must proceed with heightened caution.
•The router may cause interference when in the close proximity of TV sets, radio receivers
or personal computers.
•It is recommended that you should create an appropriate copy or backup of all the im-
portant settings that are stored in the memory of the device.

3. ROUTER DESCRIPTION
3. Router Description
HSPA+ router UR5i v2 Libratum is used to wirelessly connect various equipments and
devices via Ethernet interface 10/100 to the internet or intranet. Thanks to high data transfer
speed of up to 14,4 Mbit/s (download) and 5,76 Mbit/s (upload) it is an ideal wireless solution
for traffic and security camera systems, individual computers, LAN networks, automatic teller
machines (ATM) and other self-service terminals, etc.
As a standard, cellular router UR5i v2 Libratum is equipped with two Ethernet 10/100 and
two SIM cards. This wireless router is supplied either in a plastic or metal casing, based on
the requirements of the customer.
Configuration is done via web interface protected by password. The UR5i v2 Libratum
router supports creation of VPN tunnels using technologies IPsec, OpenVPN and L2TP to
ensure safe communication. Web interface provides detail statistics about the 3G router activ-
ities, signal strength, detailed log, etc. Cellular router supports functions: DHCP, NAT, NAT-T,
DynDNS, NTP, VRRP, control by SMS and many other function.
Other diagnostic functions ensuring continuous communication include automatic inspec-
tion of PPP connection offering an automatic restart feature – in case of connection losses, or
hardware watchdog which monitors the status of the router. With the help of a special window
(start up script window) you may insert Linux scripts for various actions. For some applications
the key option to create several different configurations for one HSPA+ wireless router, the so-
called profiles (maximum of 4), and the option to switch between them (for example via SMS,
binary input status, etc.) is essential. Cellular routers UR5i v2 Libratum may automatically
upgrade configuration and firmware from server. This allows mass reconfiguration of many
routers in one time.
The router also supports additional software like R-SeeNet for permanent traffic monitoring
of routers or communication VPN server Digicluster.
Examples of possible applications
•mobile office
•fleet management
•security system
•telematic
•telemetric
•remote monitoring
•vending and dispatcher machines

5.5 Mounting recommendations
•possibility to be put on a work surface,
•DIN rail EN 60715 with included clip CPD2 (or CKD2 for metal version).
For the most of applications with a built-in router in a switch board it is possible to recognize
two kinds of environments:
•no public and industry environment of low voltage with high interference,
•public environment of low voltage without high interference.
For both of these environments it is possible to mount router to a switch board, the following
there is no need to have examination immunity or issues in connection with EMC according to
EN 60439-1 ed.2:00 + A1:04.
Compliance of EN 60439-1 ed.2:00 + A1:04 specification it is necessary to observe next
assembly of the router to the switch – board:
•For whip antennas we recommend to observe a distance of 6 cm from cables and metal
surfaces on every side due to the elimination of interference. While using an external
antenna except for the switch-board it is necessary to fit a lightening conductor.
•Before mounting a router on sheet-steel we recommend using a "cable" antenna.

5. ROUTER DESIGN
•For every cables we recommend to bind the bunch, we recommend for this use:
–Length of the bunch (combination of power supply and data cables) can be maxi-
mum 1.5 m. If the length of data cables exceeds 1.5 m or in the event of, the cable
leads towards the switch – board. We recommend installing over – voltage protec-
tors (surge suppressors).
–With data cables they mustn’t carry cables with reticular tension ∼230 V/50 Hz.
Figure 11: Cable routing (plastic) Figure 12: Cable routing (metal)
•Sufficient space must be left in front of individual connectors for handling of cables,
Figure 13: Space in front of connectors (plastic) Figure 14: Space in front of connectors (metal)
•For correct function of the router we recommend to use in the switch-board earth-bonding
distribution frame for grounding of power supply of router, data cables and antenna.

5.6 Removing from the DIN rail
DIN holder is suitable for DIN rail according to EN 60715 standard only. Default position of
CPD2 holder (or CKD2 for metal version), which is used for mounting the router on a DIN rail,
is shown in the following figure:
Figure 15: Default position of DIN holder
For removing from the DIN rail it is necessary to lightly push upward the router so that the
top part of the CPD2 holder (or CKD2 for metal version) hitched to the DIN rail get out of this
rail and then fold out the top part of the router away from the DIN rail.

5.7.2 Power connector PWR
Panel socket 2-pin.
Pin number Signal mark Description
1 VCC(+) Positive pole of DC supply voltage (+9 to +36 V DC)
2 GND(-) Negative pole of DC supply voltage
Table 5: Connection of power connector
Figure 18: Power connector
Power supply for router is required between +9 V to +36 V DC supply. Protection against
reversed polarity without signaling is built into the router.
The power consumption during receiving is 2.3 W. The peak power consumption during
data sending is 5.5 W. However, values of consumption can be increased, if some expansion
port is eqquipped. For correct operation it is necessary that the power source is able to supply
a peak current of 1.2 A.
Circuit example:

The positive pole VCC is marked by a red socket on the power.

5.7.3 Antenna connector ANT, DIV (and WIFI)
Main and diversity antennas are connected to the router using the SMA connector on the
front panel. For UR5i v2 Libratum with WiFi module is also available reverse SMA antenna
connector, through which the WIFI antenna can be connected.
The router can not operate without connected main antenna marked as ANT !
ANT connector is used to connect the main antenna. For connecting the diversity antenna
use the second antenna connector DIV. If WiFi module is equipped on customer’s request,
there is also available WIFI antenna connector for connecting corresponding antenna.
The antenna is connected by screwing this antenna to the SMA connector on the front panel
of the router (see figure below).
Figure 20: Connecting of the antenna
Diversity antenna improves radio features of the router at low signal strength.
