The detailed installation procedure is described in the “Installation and maintenance manual” available from the resources page. This procedure must be read, the integrity of the gateway, its warranty and its efficiency depend on it.

Here are the key factors of a good installation (it does not prevent you from reading the “Installation and maintenance manual”), plus a few additional recommendations:

• Gateway must be mounted on any concrete pedestal, concrete wall or any non-flammable surface (UL94-V0).
• The LTE/HSPA/GPRS connection requires a USIM subscription and an optional USB dongle.
• Before inserting the USIM card, pay attention that the Wirnet iFemtoCell is unpowered by checking that all LEDs are OFF.
• To optimize the colocation between the USB WAN dongle and the external LoRa antenna, a distance of 1m is required between both radiated parts.
• It is recommended to use a 1 meter extension cable for LoRa antenna when an USB WAN dongle is used.
• Recommended shielding Ethernet cable is category 6A, STP or SSTP.
• Before any product installation, a full spectrum analysis should be done on the field with a spectrum analyzer. A backup of each measurement is strongly recommended in case further analysis is required.
• Photos of the full installation are also recommended to memorize antennas co-locations and check if the installation is properly done.
