Coaxial Cable
Using the DC jack, connect power to the bridge AP that is to
supply coaxial cable power.
On both the power source and receive bridge APs connect a
coaxial cable. Refer to step: 7. Connect Coaxial Cable of this

On the bridge AP that is to supply power, slide the PoC DC
switch to the ON position.
4. Verify Bridge AP Operation
Verify basic switch operation by checking the system LEDs.
When operating normally, the Power LED should be on
green, and the WiFi, Eth and G.hn LEDs should be on or
blinking green.
5. Connect an Ethernet Cable
Caution:
Damage may occur if an F-type cable connector
on the GLinq is overtightened. Do not tighten a connector
more than the maximum torque rating of 168 N-cm (16 lbin).
Note:
Use only threaded male F-type compression coaxial
cable connectors to connect coaxial cable between the
bridge APs.
Note:
It is NOT recommended to use Flex F or push-on
connectors. Always use standard threaded male Fconnectors.
Screw a male coaxial cable connector onto the bridge AP Ftype coaxial connector until it is finger tight. If you are using
a specialized torque wrench, tighten the connector to the
maximum specified torque of:
◆
168 N-cm or 16 lb-in
As the connection is made, check the G.hn port status LED to
be sure the link is valid:
◆
On Green — Port has a valid link.
◆
Blinking Green — Indicates network activity.
7.Verify AP Operation
Connect Category 5e or better cable to the RJ-45 port.
As the connection is made, check the Ethernet port status
LED to be sure the link is valid:
◆
On Green — Port has a valid link.
◆
Blinking Green — Indicates network activity.
