Introduction
Introduction
A wireless access point (WAP) is a networking hardware device that allows other Wi-Fi enabled
devices to connect to a wired network in the mine, or to act as repeaters to extend Wi-Fi
coverage. The WAP connects to a wired router, Ethernet switch or hub via an Ethernet cable,
and transmits a Wi-Fi signal within a designated area making it accessible by other Wi-Fi
capable devices, cap lamps, telephones, Nautitech®Data Profilers, etc.
By installing the Access Point throughout an entire mine site, users (machines and personell)
may roam freely from one place to another without experiencing network interruptions as Wi-Fi
connected devices shift seamlessly from one access point to the next without losing connection.
Key operations
Make Wi-Fi accessible in any area of the mine network so machine/equipment data can
be transmitted automatically without human interaction.
Allows tracking of key equipment through communication tags and allows for the ability to
locate personell in the event of an emergency.
Improve productivity and working conditions for miners
Improve safety
Live-streaming of video or images to aid in trouble shooting
Flag faults before they become critical issues and allow for timely dispatch of spare parts
for repairs.
Planning of maintenance schedules/down time through the use of vehicle telemetry and
performance metrics
Features
Flexible power supply options
- 12 to 24V DC.
- PoE in input voltage 8 - 30V (non-802.3af).
Two SMA connectors for antennas.
10/100/1000 Base-T copper RJ45 connection
User friendly PC interface.
802.11 B/G/N at up to 300 Mbits/s in HT-40.
Wireless 2.4 GHz generation 4.
MiniPCIe slot for one more wireless interface to make a dual band device, or a 3G/4G
modem.
DIN rail bracket for easy mounting.
Operating temperature -40°C to 70°C.
PCB temperature monitoring.
Voltage monitoring.

Figure 1
Ethernet Connector
The access Point device has a shielded 8P8C socket RJ45 for connection to local
Ethernet network.
Ethernet port supports Auto-MDIX, which automatically detects the type of connected
Ethernet cable (straight through or crossover) and configures the port accordingly.
Antenna connection
2 x RP-SMA connectors Female (outside thread)
DC Power Connector
There are multiple options for supplying power to the Access Point device
DC power in the range of 12 to 24V DC connected to the power socket.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) supplied through the RJ45 Ethernet connector.

Factory Reset Button
In order to reboot the device from network, hold the RESET button of the device when starting it
until the LED light turns off, and Metal will start to look for Netinstall servers.
Auxiliary equipment
Antenna
The MGRM style is a mag mount version. It utilises the powerful rare earth magnet for secure
mobile applications. The magnet bottom is outfitted with a protective vinyl cover, to prevent
marring of the vehicle surface.
Figure 2
Antenna performance is 5dBi (peak gain) with no ground plane required for proper operation.
The antenna consist of Black ASA UV resistant plastic with a heavy metal base and 3 meters
RG-58 cable with N-male connector.

Antenna Specification
Table 1
Antenna Adapter
The RX series Antenna Coupler permits the installation of non-Ex certified radio antenna in a
hazardous area. It acts as a capacitive coupler between RF transmitter/receiver installed in a
flameproof enclosure (or in the safe area) and a passive antenna installed in potentially
explosive atmosphere. Connection to the antenna is facilitated by a direct fitting to the antenna
cable.
The antenna coupler also acts as a flameproof plug suitable to be mounted to the cable entry of
the flameproof enclosure. The antenna coupler blocks DC signals and provides very high
impedance to low frequency AC signals, and consists of a circuit board housed and
encapsulated in explosion proof stainless steel housing.
If a radio transmitter/receiver is installed in a safe area, the Antenna coupler protects the output
signal using a cable connected to and antenna that is installed in hazardous area.
Certificate of Conformity: ANZEx 16.4148

Setting Up
First Use
Connect the antenna adapter to RP-SMA connectors.
place the antenna on the machine and connect to the adapter
Connect the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet switch
The default IP address is 192.168.88.1 for configuration. User name is admin and there
is no password
Depending on the antenna used, you must set its gain in the RouterOS software to
ensure that EIRP meets the limit set by authorities. This is done in the Wireless menu.
Booting Process
Connect to wireless SSID “MikroTik” and open 192.168.88.1 in your web browser.
Username: admin
No password
If an IP connection is not available, Winbox can be used to connect to the MAC address of the
device.
More information here: http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/First_time_startup
Ethernet Port
One 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet port, supporting automatic cross/straight cable
correction (Auto MDI/X), so you can use either straight or crossover cable for
connecting to other network devices. The Ethernet port accepts 8-30V DC powering
from a passive PoE injector.
RouterBoot button
RouterBOOT reset button (access after removing the lid) has two functions:
- Hold this button until LED light starts flashing, release the button to reset RouterOS
configuration.
- Hold this button longer, until LED turns off, then release it to make the device look for
Netinstall servers.
Operating System Support
Currently tested operating system is MikroTik RouterOS (starting from version v6.24).\
