6.5 X1 Outdoor Router Mounting
The X1 Outdoor Router must be mounted to a wall or to a pole. This section provides details
for an outdoor installation.
6.5.1 Pre-Installation Guidelines for Mounting Configurations
When installing the X1 Outdoor Router, follow these guidelines:
• When selecting the site, consider accessibility, availability of power, signal and network
cable connections, and the possibility of future expansion
• Install the X1 Outdoor Router in a location where access is unobstructed
• The X1 Outdoor Router operation area must have adequate ventilation
• Do not install the X1 Outdoor Router on the floor, install only on a wall or pole
6.5.2 Mounting the Router on a Wall or Pole
The X1 Outdoor Router may be mounted to a wall or a pole by using the GLBAC-WALLMOU-
SCC-M mounting kit. The kit includes:
CAUTION: If negative voltages are used such as Telecom -48VDC, the negative
most voltage is always connected to –ve terminal (in the Telecom case this would
be -48V) and the positive most voltage is always connected to the +ve terminal (in
the Telecom case this would be 0VR). The Chassis can be referenced to +ve, -ve
or left floating (i.e. not connected to either +ve or –ve) as required because the
power module is fully isolated input to chassis.
CAUTION: If the X1 Outdoor Router and the Power Module are mounted on the
same pole, the router should be installed above the Power Module.
CAUTION: The X1 Outdoor Router and the Power Module must be wall or pole
mounted with the cable and power connectors on the bottom of the units, facing
downward.
NOTE: The X1 Outdoor Router connectors and cables for power, TX, RX, and
Ethernet may be attached before or after mounting on a wall or pole.
