Sealing Insert
Step 4: Waterproof and Insert the Cable
1. As needed, detach one or more clamping nuts of the cable gland. The cable gland is where
the cable, like Ethernet and power, will pass through. Usually, one cable gland is used for
Ethernet and another one is used for the power cable.
2. Using a finger, push from one side to remove the sealing insert from the cable gland body.
3. Using a pointed object, such as a screwdriver, push through the thin rubber layer of the
sealing insert to create a hole.

5. From the side of the thin rubber layer, squeeze the Ethernet connector through the hole of the
layer until the sealing insert completely passes through the Ethernet cable.
NOTE: Do the same procedures to insert other cables, like power cable, etc.
