the bottom of the communications gateway.
STEP 2. Open the box.
STEP 3. Run the ac power cable down the pole. The unterminated end of the cable
should be connected to the overhead transformer.
STEP 4. Align the ve-pin connector at the terminated end with the notch of the power
connection terminal, make the connection, and tighten the ring. See Figure 2
on page 9.
