2.2 Description
CyBox GW-P is a member of the new family of robust industrial Ethernet access points and wireless
gateways. It is particularly designed to meet requirements of rolling stock and automotive applications.
The mobile wireless gateway allows connecting multiple mobile wifi clients to gain access to the onboard
Ethernet and / or to the internet via several available LTE / GSM modems onboard a passenger train or a
long distance bus for example.
CyBox GW-P is capable of hosting up to 5 independent WLAN radios and up to 5 independent LTE / GSM
modems, allowing operation of flexible wireless network configurations, including different frequency
bands. The WLAN interfaces are fully compliant to IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, allowing a maximum wireless
transmission rate of up to 1300 Mbps on each interface. The cellular modules support the latest 3G and
4G networks all around the world. On the fixed network side, the access point features two 10/100/1000
Mbps Ethernet ports with auto-negotiation and TX-crossover.
CyBox GW-P provides very flexible powering options. It can be supplied by a local 24-110 VDC power
source; the power input is EN50155 compliant and tolerates an input voltage range from 16.8 V to 154 V.
CyBox GW-P can optionally provide the capability to tolerate power interruptions up to 10 ms, compliant
to EN50155, Class S2.
The robust IP30 housing can be deployed in industrial and mobile environments; it does not require
forced air cooling in temperature ranges between -40 and +70 °C (EN50155, Class TX) and has no
maintainable parts inside. CyBox GW-P is especially suited for use in rugged environments with regard to
shock and vibration according to applicable DIN, EN or IEC industry standards.
The CyBox GW-P firmware provides a comfortable management interface through https service. Besides
global setup parameters the software allows complete configuration of all of the wirless and wired
interfaces, such as channel selection, SSID, encryption keys, and firewall setup. Configurations can be
up- and downloaded and the complete management firmware can be upgraded.

3.1.3 Antenna Connectors
The up to 17 QLS antenna connectors are located at bottom part of the front panel of the access point.
The connectors labeled from A1 to A17. Their functionalities depend on the CyBox GW-P model (see 3.4.1
Correspondence Front plate / Software).
While connecting an antenna to the QLS connector, make sure that you hear a ‘click’ sound confirming
proper mounting.
To remove an antenna, it has to be gently pulled from the basis of the connector with one hand, while
the other hand is holding the antenna. Alternately, a screwdriver can be used as a lever arm at the basis
of the antenna to make the removal easier, as illustrated below:
Step one:
Place the screwdriver between the connector and
the access point
Step two:
Rotate and/or push the screwdriver while pulling
on the antenna

3.6 Reset Switch
CyBox GW-P is equipped with a hidden reset switch behind the front panel, nearby the top-right corner.
The button is accessible with a straightened paper clip pushed through the little hole on the front plate.
The function of the reset switch depends on the duration of its activation, as indicated in Table 10 below.
The timing behavior is only valid, if the access point has completly booted (after approx. 1 mn). While
the access point is booting or executing U-Boot, pushing the button will always reset the access point.
The following table describes the functions of the reset switch:

4Mounting the CyBox GW-P
When mounting the CyBox GW-P, please take into account the following aspects
aDo not install the device close to any sources of heat, such as radiators or heat registers.
aKeep the device away from any liquids and avoid exposure to dripping or splashing. The
protection class of the housing is IP30.
aKeep a free space of at least 150 mm around the housing to ensure adequate heat dissipation
capabilities.
aFor optimal heat dissipation, the connectors should face down.
aThe CyBox GW-P housing provides four mounting holes for fixation.
aUse M6 screws.
The drawing in Figure 2 shows the outer dimensions of the CyBox GW-P housing, including the position
of the mounting holes.

4.1 Connecting an Earthing Cable
A M6 earthing stud on the right side of the device (also refer to Figure 2) for protective earth connection
is essential for the device security. Carry out the following steps to connect an earthing cable:
aTake an earthing cable with a cross section of at least 0.75 mm² and a ferrule with eyelet
suitable for a 6 mm threaded bolt.
aMount the earth cable as shown in Figure 3.
aFasten the cable by tightening the nut to the required torque (recommended according to
EN60947-1 are 3 Nm, 5.5 Nm must not be exceeded).
Figure 3 Earth cabel mounting on Earth Stud
4.2 Electrical Connection
aMake sure the device is properly grounded.
aEstablish a connection to the network by plugging an M12 patch cable to one of the front panel
M12 connectors. Either LAN port may be used, if the access point is supplied by a local power
supply through the power supply connector.
aConnect the desired number of antennas to the access point. Each WLAN radio can use up to
four antennas for maximal performance. LTE modules are intended to be connected to two
antennas. In some version there is an additional GPS antenna connector.
aIn case of using a local power supply, the appropriate wiring (see Table 1) must be established to
connect the power line to the access point.
aMake sure that the voltage of the power supply conforms to the voltage on the type plate.
aEnsure that the power supply (power socket) is grounded correctly and that the power cable is
intact and undamaged. Do not switch on the system if there are damages on the power cable or
plug.
aUse power cables which are approved for the power supply in your country.
