Metric Cable Gland Assembly
Protect indoor and outdoor edge network devices like PoE
cameras or LAN access points from electrical damage by
installing the B110-SP-CAT-OD2 between the source and edge
network equipment.
Notes:
• Maximum cable distance between B110-SP-CAT-OD2 and source
is 328 ft. (100 m).
• Maximum cable distance between B110-SP-CAT-OD2 and
equipment is 328 ft. (100 m).
• For best protection performance, the total cable distance in the
installation should not exceed 328 ft. (100 m).
• The B110-SP-CAT-OD2 must be grounded to function properly.

Installation
Protecting Edge-Of-Network Equipment
This installation protects your edge equipment from surge,
lightning or ESD damage. To protect both the source and edge
equipment, refer to section Protecting Edge-Of-Network
Source and Equipment in this guide.
Note: Use standard size Cat5e, Cat6 or Cat6a cables that feature a
wire gauge of 23/24 AWG. Slim category cables are not supported.
1. Remove both the cap Aand end nut Efrom one of the
cable glands (refer to section Cable Gland Assembly).
2. Slide the cap and remaining portion of the cable gland onto
both the included grounding wire and bare-wire category
cable coming from your source (ex: PoE switch) as shown:
Note: Use standard Cat5e, Cat6 or Cat6a cables with a wire gauge
of 23/24 AWG. Slim category cables are not supported.

Installation
3. Insert both the grounding wire and the bare-wire end of the
category cable in the enclosure, making sure it is inserted
on the “cable end” side.

Installation
4. Screw the metric cable gland to the enclosure using the
end nut Dpreviously removed in step 1. Then, tighten the
cap securely onto the cable gland.
5. Using a punch down tool (such as Tripp Lite’s N046-000,
sold separately), connect the bare wire to the color-coded
board inside the enclosure.
6. Repeat Steps 1-3 for the equipment (ex: PoE camera) side
of the enclosure without the addition of a grounding wire.
Note: To achieve the best protection performance, the Cat5e/6/6a
patch cable between the equipment end of the B110-SP-CAT-OD
surge protector and the equipment to be protected must not exceed
300 ft. (100 m).

Installation
7. Once both bare wires are connected, secure the PCBA
board to the enclosure using the included mounting screws.
Then, attach the grounding wire to the available screw on
the PCBA board.
Note: Make sure you connect your source to the cable end and your
PoE-compliant device to the equipment end.
8. Screw the front cover to the back portion of the enclosure
using the included unit cover screws.
9. The connected PoE device is now protected.

Installation
Protecting Edge-Of-Network Source and
Equipment
The previous installation only protects your edge equipment
from surge, lightning or ESD damage. To protect both the
source and edge equipment, install two B110-SP-CAT-OD2
units in your application. A B110-SP-POE can be installed
instead of a second B110-SP-CAT-OD2 to protect the source if
the second unit will be installed indoors.
Note: Use standard size Cat5e, Cat6 or Cat6a cables that feature a
wire gauge of 23/24 AWG. Slim category cables are not supported.
Maximum cable distance between two B110-SP-CAT-OD2 units is
328 ft. (100 m).
1. Install a second B110-SP-CAT-OD2 between the first
B110-SP-CAT-OD2 unit and your source following steps 1-3
in Protecting Edge-Of-Network Equipment section.
