EX12 power installation

Connecting to the site network with local power

Plug the power supply unit into an AC power outlet and connect the power supply unit to the EX12 device.

Connecting to the site network with remote power

If your device needs to be positioned some distance from either the nearest AC power outlet or site network equipment, using the included passive Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) injector will simplify the installation cabling and allow for improved cellular signal strength. The POE injector cable allows the DC power and Ethernet connection to be run to the EX12 via the Ethernet connection only.

  1. Plug the power supply unit into an AC power outlet and connect to the PoE injector.
  2. Connect the male RJ45 connector plug of the POE injector cable to the site network equipment/router.
  3. Connect a standard Ethernet cable from the RJ45 socket/jack on the POE injector cable, (marked DC OUT), to the LAN/PoE Ethernet port of the EX12.

Remote power troubleshooting

The LED marked IN will illuminate when the PoE injector is receiving power from the PSU. The LED marked OUT lights up green when an Ethernet connection is recognized by the EX12.

If the IN LED is not illuminated check the following:

If the OUT LED is not illuminated after connecting to the EX12, verify the integrity of the Ethernet cable.

Note The PoE injector must be connected to LAN port 1 on the EX12 for the device to properly receive power.
