2.1.3 Use in Compliance with Underlying Provisions
The device is used for wireless transmission of ETHERNET data packets per
IEEE 802.3. A radio link must be set up for this to another device, for example a
second Wireless ETHERNET Gateway 758-918, that also supports the
applicable radio protocol.
The device has been developed for use in an environment that meets the IP65
protection class criteria. This specifies dust-tightness and protection against
water jets (nozzle) from any angle. Operation in hazardous areas is prohibited.

2.2 Special Use Conditions for ETHERNET Devices
If not otherwise specified, ETHERNET devices are intended for use on local
networks. Please note the following when using ETHERNET devices in your
system:
• Do not connect control components and control networks to an open
network such as the Internet or an office network. WAGO recommends
putting control components and control networks behind a firewall.
• Limit physical and electronic access to all automation components to
authorized personnel only.
• Change the default passwords before first use! This will reduce the risk of
unauthorized access to your system.
• Regularly change the passwords used! This will reduce the risk of
unauthorized access to your system.
• If remote access to control components and control networks is required,
use a Virtual Private Network (VPN).
• Regularly perform threat analyses. You can check whether the measures
taken meet your security requirements.
• Use “defense-in-depth” mechanisms in your system's security configuration
to restrict the access to and control of individual products and networks.

2.3 Storage, Assembly and Transport
Whenever possible, the components are to be stored in their original packaging.
Likewise, the original packaging provides optimal protection during transport.
When assembling or repacking the components, the contacts must not be soiled
or damaged. The components must be stored and transported in appropriate
containers/packaging. Thereby, the ESD information is to be regarded.

2.4 Safety Advice (Precautions)
For installing and operating purposes of the relevant device to your system the
following safety precautions shall be observed:
Always use voltage sources with current limitation/safety extra-low voltage!
Only use power supply sources based on IEC/EN60950 Section 2.5 “Power
sources with limited output” with the device. The output of the external power
supply must be short-circuit protected. The output voltage of the external power
supply shall not exceed 30 VDC.

Do not use device in hazardous environments!
The device is not designed for use in hazardous areas.
Maintenance/Repair only by authorized specialists!
The device contains no parts that can be serviced by users. Always have all
service, reconfiguration, maintenance or repair work performed by specialists
authorized by WAGO.

Replace defective or damaged devices!
Replace defective or damaged device (e.g., in the event of deformed contacts),
since the long-term functionality of fieldbus station involved can no longer be
ensured.
Protect the components against materials having seeping and insulating
properties!
The components are not resistant to materials having seeping and insulating
properties such as: aerosols, silicones and triglycerides (found in some hand
creams). If you cannot exclude that such materials will appear in the component
environment, then install the components in an enclosure being resistant to the
above-mentioned materials. Clean tools and materials are imperative for
handling devices/modules.
Cleaning only with permitted materials!
Clean soiled contacts using oil-free compressed air or with ethyl alcohol and
leather cloths.
Avoid electrostatic discharge!
The devices are equipped with electronic components that you may destroy by
electrostatic discharge when you touch. Pay attention while handling the devices
to good grounding of the environment (persons, job and packing).

Functional earth
This product is recommended for use in both industrial and domestic
environments. For industrial environments it is mandatory to use the functional
earth connection to comply with immunity requirements. For domestic

Do not open the enclosure!
Never open the enclosure. Opening of the enclosure will nullify the guarantee,
legal warranty and authorization for use.
Variants 758-918/000-001: Use the included antenna only!
The scope of delivery for Variant 758-918/000-001 includes the right external
antenna. Connecting any other external antenna may result in the loss of
transmission approval. Use the included antenna only.

As a wireless ETHERNET gateway (WEG), the 758-918 device makes it possible
to integrate conventional ETHERNET devices in a wireless network. For this
purpose, the device has a wired ETHERNET interface and another interface for
radio communication. The device uses the integrated radio technology to transmit
the data received on the ETHERNET interface. Conversely, the device uses the
ETHERNET interface to send data received on the radio interface. As data
transmission of ETHERNET packets occurs with a transparent protocol on Layer
2 of the OSI reference model, this provides for easy integration of all Ethernet-
based fieldbuses, such as MODBUS/TCP, EtherNet/IP or PROFINET.
In combination with another function-related device, e.g., another WEG or
Access Point (AP) of the same radio technology, the WEG can serve as a
wireless replacement for ETHERNET cables. The WEG permits particularly
robust, real-time radio connections over long distances. A suitable configuration
can also prevent any degradation to other radio networks.
Figure 1: Wireless Transmission Between Two WEGs
An innovative operator control concept enables easy initiation of automatic
configuration processes using a Mode membrane key on the device.
This can be used to configure a substitute cable link between two WEGs in only a
few seconds, without using additional aids or hardware / software.
In addition to operation using the Mode membrane key and the 8 LED status
indicators, access to other status information and advanced device functions of
the WEG is also possible via a Web-based Management System (WBM).
Depending on the application, the unit can be operated in various modes.

WLAN or Bluetooth®?
Choose WLAN if data throughput and wireless roaming are required or if there
are only a few other devices transmitting in the area.
Choose Bluetooth®if stability and low latency are important and there are several
