Class 0 PoE
Multiple Group System (>1 Access Point)
When an installation requires more than eight channels, additional MXW components can be connected to expand the system. A gigabit router is required to
connect all components to the same network. The following are several topologies for multiple group systems.
Use the Spectrum Scanner to ensure that there is sufficient RF availability for the installation.
Large Single-Room Installation
1. Power on the DHCP-enabled router.
2. Connect the router to a computer.
3. Connect each APT to a Power over Ethernet (PoE)-enabled port on the router. Use a PoE inserter if the router does not provide it.
4. Connect each ANI to the router.
5. Connect chargers to the ANI ports, or to the router.
