Hardware Installation

What’s inside the box?
Ports & Connectors

(Optional) VDC External Power Connector

The gateway is supplied with an external connector for additional power. It can be used to connect an external power source such as a photovoltaic panel or DC power supply. The connector supports a maximum voltage of 24VDC (optimal values ​​between 12VDC and 24VDC) and a maximum input current of 3A.

To access the connection and soldering PINs of the power cable, you must first disassemble the external component of the connector as shown in the figure. Then follow the diagram presented for the correct positioning of the cables.

We recommend using the “free spot” (white dot) as a reference element, positioned below at the top.

ATTENTION! PoE power does NOT recharge the gateway’s internal batteries. The batteries recharge automatically only if the power source is connected to the appropriate connector (n.6 in the diagram)

MAXIMUM VALUES ALLOWED

If powered by a DC power supply, use a maximum voltage of 24VDC (optimal voltage between 12VDC and 24VDC). In case of power supply via photovoltaic panel, the maximum values ​​of this are indicated in the table alongside. We recommend a panel of maximum 50W at 12V.

Rated Max Power (Pmax)50 W
Voltage at Pmax (Vmp)18.5 V
Current at Pmax (Imp)2.80 A
Open-circuit Voltage (Voc)23.50 V
Short-circuit Current (Isc)2.95 A
