1. Fix the cross bracket on the bottom of the enclosure with
4 M6*12 bolts.
2. Place 2 pieces of the clamp around the pole and tighten
them with M6*110 bolts, washers, and nuts.
3. Connect pole clamp and cross bracket by
securing the last piece of the mounting kit in
place using M6*30 bolts, washers, and nuts.
1. Clean the surface area of the connector that will be
wrapped. Wrap a layer of PVC tape with a 50% overlap:
follow the rotation direction of the connector. Continue
wrapping PVC tape to 10 mm below the end of the
connector.
Mount and Secure Kit
To mount and secure the kit to the enclosure and pole,
follow the steps below.
Weather Protection
Devices may be network-connected (via internet) or
cellular-connected. For a network-connected device,
protect the Ethernet cable with PVC tape.

2. Cut o󰀨 50 cm (roughly 20 in) of waterproof tape. Stretch
the tape to 100 cm (roughly 40 in). Wrap 3 layers around
the connector with a 50% overlap. Using your hand, hold
the tape in place for a few seconds.
3. Wrap another 3 layers with PVC tape, using the natural
uncoiling force and 50% overlap. Cover the head and
the tail of the connector.
Power on the Gateway
Use a CAT5 Cable to provide power to the Gateway. Attach
one end to the PoE (Power over Ethernet) injector and the
other end to the Ethernet Port on the bottom of the casing.
Do not power on the device if any antenna port
is left open. If you do not want to use an antenna
feature, terminate the port with a 50 Ohm load.
Attach the antennas
1. Screw on the antennas. All antennas should be installed
as follows: LoRa, LTE-MAIN (on top). PoE Install
2. Verify the PoE runs to the PoE injector or PoE switch.
Cellular Install
Cellular Installation requires only power input and
grounding.

Indoor and outdoor systems require lightning surge protection. See below:
Outdoor Surge Protection System
Antenna Grounding
We recommend installing a lightning arrestor on all antenna N-Type terminals (LoRa, LTE). Use
10AWG or greater grounding wire to connect the arrestor to the tower-mounted LoRa antenna. The
arrestors must be Female to Male to t the antenna and housing connectors. Use a 10 AWG or
greater wire to connect the arrestors’ terminals to the grounding rail on the building.
Gateway Grounding
We recommend using a separate 10 AWG or greater grounding wire to connect the screw terminal
(on the bottom right of Gateway casing) to the grounding rail or bar.
Indoor Surge Protection
To protect indoor equipment connected to the Gateway, install an Ethernet port SPD lightning arrester
(controller). Position SPD lightning arrester along the cable connecting the Gateway to the PoE
injector. Connect the grounding wire to an appropriate grounding point.
Your PoE injector, network switch, and router must be surge protected.
Device Protection
If you fail to follow these recommendations we carry no responsibility for
damage your equipment incurs due to lightning strike!

Lightning Controller
Cellular
VPN (Internet Mode)
You must use the lightning controller on your on your Gateway. If you do not the
device can be damaged by lightning. If you do not use the lightning protector, you
devoid warranty for your device.
The lightning controller is to the right.
The lightning controller arrives with protective blue caps. Remove these caps
before you install your lightning controller to you Gateway device.
Once the lightning controller is attached, you can install the antenna. The antenna attaches to the
lightning controller, so the device is protected form potential lightning strike.

Attach Antennas
For the cellular device, you can attach the main antenna. You can also attach an antennas to LTE-
DIV\LoRa2 and you can attach a di󰀨erent antenna to LTE-MAIN as shown below.

LTE-MAN
The number and location of antennas to attach to your Omnipoint device depends on whether you
use an Omnipoint Cellular device or an Omnipoint VPN device. See below for further details.

You must open the Gateway device to set up the
set up the device correctly. These actions need
apply to the connector--see the example to the
right.
1. Unscrew the top of the connector.
2. Connect the Gateway as shown:
• L = Hot, 12 V DC
• N = Ground

Gateway Status
To use the Omnipoint successfully, verify the Gateway is online.
Do not power on Gateway until antenna has been installed.
When you log in, you
can see whether the
Gateway is online or
o󰀪ine.
