RFID Ethernet Gateway (FCC ID: 2AA2YETH101)
Installation and Operation Instructions
1. General
The RFID gateway is used for locating persons and assets in proximity to the device, that are
equipped with a Fireflies RFID tag and to communicate with other RFID readers, relaying all
communication to an Ethernet network.
2. Installation Instructions
The device may be mounted on any type of support, but for better operation it is recommended
avoiding mounting the device on a metal support.
The device may be mounted on walls, whether horizontally or vertically.
The device may be mounted from ceiling or above suspended ceiling.
The device may be mounted on the floor or under floating floor.
The device can be mounted either by using a standard glue or by screwing it to the support using
the 2 holes at both ends of the device.

3. Operation Instructions
3.1. Activating the Device
Once installed, the device should be connected to 5V DC adapter into the micro-USB entry.
After connecting the power adapter, the device should be connected to network using standard
RJ45 cable. The device should start blinking in green after a while.
Another option is to connect the device to POE network. In that case, no power adapter is
needed.
3.2. Working with the Device
The device can receive transmissions from person tags (FCC ID 2AA2YPTAG101) and from
RFID Readers (2AA2YREADER101) sending them through the network to a server. In order for
the transmission to arrive to the gateway (and from there to a host computer), there should be a
path from the device to the gateway, either directly or by relaying through other readers of the
same type.
Figure 2 - Network Schema
In figure 2 Reader 1 connects directly with the gateway, whereas Readers 2 and 3 are too far
from the gateway, so will reach through Reader 1.
3.3. Connecting to the Device
In order for the device to connect to the network, there should be a DHCP controller in the
network, since the device supports only DHCP. The device could be found in the network using
the MAC address printed at the side of the device next to the RJ45 jack.
After connecting the device to the network, a user program can receive information from the
device through the network and send commands to the device itself or to other devices (tags,
readers) through the network by opening a socket to the device's 6860 port.
3.4. Turning the Device Off
The device is turned off by disconnecting it from power.
The FCC Wants You to Know
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in
a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
a) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
b) Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
c) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.
FCC Warning
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could
void the user authority to operate the equipment under FCC Rules.
4. Instructions concerning human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic fields
To comply with FCC Section 1.1310 for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic
fields, implement the following instruction:
A distance of at least 20cm between the equipment and all persons should be maintained during
the operation of the equipment.
NOTE: THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY RADIO OR TV
INTERFERENCE CAUSED BY UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS TO THIS
EQUIPMENT. SUCH MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID THE USER’S AUTHORITY TO
OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT.
