Ch 1. ZW-2200 Installation
ZW-2200-IA
Packing List
Before you start to install the IA, make sure the package contains the following items：

6
●Wireless IA AP unit * 1
●Mounting Kit * 1
●Power Over Ethernet Kit * 1
●Ground Wire * 1
●2.5” U bolts * 2
●Waterproof Connector * 1
Hardware Installation
Once you check off everything from the package, you can start to install the IA. You can
mount to a pipe. The steps are showed in the following：
1. You must mount the IA into the bracket first.
2. You can use the 2.5 inches U bolt to mount on the pipe. The two U bolts must be mounted
tightly. Be aware of not over-tighten the U bolt.

3. After checking the IA is mounted well, you can connect the RJ-45 network cable to
Ethernet port of IA. The steps are showing as below:
Steps Pictures
1. Separate the waterproof
connector into four parts.
2. Put these parts of
waterproof connector on
the RJ-45 network cable.

3. Connect the RJ-45 network
cable to Ethernet port of
IA. And then install those
parts of waterproof
connector one by one.
Caution: The diameter of network cable has to be round; otherwise the waterproof
connector can’t fasten down it.
Additional waterproof tool, such as waterproof tape, is recommended to use to enhance
the waterproof function. It is suggested to have a lightening protector between antenna
and antenna port. Connect the RF cable as the figure of “IA RF Cable Connection” and
connect the ground wire as the figure of “IA Ground Wire Connection.”

4. Plug the other end of the RJ-45 network cable to “P+ DATA OUT” port of PoE device.
The PoE device is guaranteed only in indoor environment.
Caution: DON’T plug the power cord into PoE device before you finish install the
antenna and Ground wire to ensure the safety.
Make sure the maximum length of the RJ-45 cable is shorter than 100M (about 109 yards)
for normal operation under IEEE 802.3 standards.
When you plug the regular RJ-45 cable into the PoE device, you should use the regular
RJ-45 cable to plug into the “DATA IN” of “Power Over Ethernet Kit” to connect to
hub/switch or use the crosslink RJ-45 cable (Not included in the Packing List) to connect
with user’s PC.
The RJ-45 network cable must be connected to the “P+DATA OUT” port.
Caution: Be careful! Don’t plug the two cables inversely. It will damage the devices!
And you have to use our PoE (included in the packing list) to guarantee that
power supply is normal.
