RS232/RS485 DCE Port
The RS232/RS485 DCE port is a configurable serial port for connecting a serial device to the WPAN Gateway . The Connected Grid Netwo rk Management System (CG-NMS) application is used to configure the port.
The port can be configured for RS232 or RS485. RS232 operates in full duplex mode on the port, and RS48 about the serial port including bytes sent and bytes received information.
For information about connecting to the RS232-DCE or RS485 port, see the “Connecting to the
RS232DCE/RS485 or RS232-DTE Ports” section on page 2-33.
RS232 DTE Port
The RS232 DTE port is a configurable serial port for connecting a serial device to the WPAN Gateway. The Connected Grid Network Management System (CG-NMS) application is used to configure the port.

For information about the USB port, see the Cisco IR 500 Series WPAN Gateway and Range Extender Release Notes on Cisco.com.
For information about connecting to the USB port, see the “Connecting to the USB Port” section on
page 2-35.
10/100 Fast Ethernet Port
The 10/100 Fast Ethernet port provides IPv4 connectivity to devices. Connectivity over the IPv6-based Field Area Network (FAN) is provided using the Mapping of Address and Port using Translation (MAP-T) protocol by the WPAN gateway.
For information about connecting to the Fast Ethernet 10/100 port, see the “Connecting to the 10/100

The alarm input connections allow the WPAN gateway to be wired to monitor an alarm condition. The alarm can be co
nfigured by the Connected Grid Network Management System to operate on a no rmally
open (NO) or normally closed (NC) basis. Table 1-4 describes the alarm connections.

Label Description
A Each alarm connection is labe led identically—t
his means each connection can be an ‘ Alarm in’ or ‘Alarm reference’ signal, pro vided the second a larm connection provides the other alarm signal.
The alarm input could be used to detect a remote alarm condition s
uch as a normally locked cabinet door
being opened or tampered with, or an attached electromechanical device losing power. For information about wiring the power and ala
rm connector, see the “Wiring the WPAN Gateway DC
Power” section on page 2-20 and the “Wiring the WPAN Gateway Alarm” section on page 2-29.
The reset switch is used to rest the WPAN gateway to its fa ctory setti ngs. To acti vate the reset, press the reset switch for three seconds.

Antenna Connector
The antenna connector is a type N female coaxial connector.
Hard Points
The hard points are used for alternate mounting or as attach points for additional equipment.
Console Port
You can connect the WP AN range e xtender to a PC or laptop through the RJ-45 console port. The RJ-45 console port uses the Cisco Console Port RJ45-to-DB9 cable (Cisco part number 72-3383-01).
The console port is covered with a cable port seal—this is a liquid tight range extender from environmental elements.

Protective Vent Port
The protective vent port relieves pressure buildup inside the extender chassis that can be caused by changing temperatures in the installation environment. This prevents pressure from building up and damaging enclosure seals and the potential exposure of sensitive components to water. The vent also protects the extender interior from dust, dirt, water, and other environmental elements.
Ground Connection
The ground connection is used to ground the WPAN extender. A provided wired grounding lug is attached to the ground connection using screws. The o ther end of the ground wire is connected to an earth ground, such as a grounding rod or an appropriate grounding point on a pole that is grounded.
Power Connector
The power connector connects to the Cisco AC po wer cable shipp ed with the uni t. Figure 1-7 shows the 3 pin AC power connector.

Installation Guidelines
Because the WPAN gateway and WPAN range extender are radio devices, they are susceptible to common causes of interference that can reduce throughput and range. Follow these basic guidelines to ensure the best possible performance:
For information on planning and initially configuring your Cisco Mesh network, refer to the Cisco
Wireless Mesh Access Points, Design and Deployment Guide on Cisco.com
Review the FCC guidelines for installing and operating outdoor wireless LAN devices at:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/prod/collateral/routers/ps2 51_Products_Data_Sheet.html
Perform a site survey before beginning the installation.
Install the WPAN gateway and WPAN range extender in an area where structures, trees, or hills do
not obstruct radio signals to and from the devices.
The WPAN gateway and WPAN range extender can be installed at any height, but best throughput
is achieved when all the WPAN gateways and WPAN range extenders are mounted at the same height. We recommend installing the devices no higher than 40 feet to allow support for wireless clients on the ground.

Contact your Cisco Technical Assistance Centre (TAC) if tighter spacings are required.
Every network application is a unique installation. Before installing multiple WPAN gateways and WPAN range extenders, you should perform a site survey to determine the optimum use of networking components and to maximize range, coverage, and network performance.
Consider the following operating and environmental con
Data rates—Sensitivity and range are inversely proportional to data bit rates. The maximum radio
range is achieved at the lowest workable data rate. A decrease in receiver sensitivity occurs as the radio data increases.
Antenna type and placement—Proper antenna configurat ion is a critical f actor in maximizing radio
range. As a general rule, range increases in proportion to antenna hei ght. However, d o no t place the antenna higher than necessary, because the extra height also increases potential interference from other unlicensed radio systems and decreases the wireless coverage from the ground.
Physical environment—Clear or open areas provide better radio range than closed or filled areas.
Obstructions—Physical obstructions such as buildings, trees, or hills can hinder performance of
wireless devices. Avoid locating the devices in a location where there is an obstruction between the sending and receiving antennas.

You must protect AC power plugs and AC receptacles from water and other outdoor elements. You
can use a UL-listed waterproofing enclosure suitable for covering the AC receptacle and AC power plug that supplies power to th e unit, as described in Article 406 of the National Electric Code (NEC).
When you install the unit outdoors, or in a wet or damp location, the AC branch circuit that powers
the unit should have ground fault protection (GFCI), as required by Article 210 of the NEC.
If the power cord goes through a metal cov er, a bushing should be installed to prev ent fraying of the
cord. When using a strain relief bushing, you should follow these recommendations:
Use properly sized parts
Use bushings that are safety certified
Use parts that are suitable for outdoor installation
Ensure that the user-supplied AC power plug is certified for outdoor use and has a minimum IP67
