LANCOM LX-6400 Highly Efficient Wi-Fi 6 for Universal Application Purposes User Guide

Mounting & connecting

Inductions

Wi-Fi antenna connectors (only LX-6402)
Screw the supplied Wi-Fi antennas onto the dedicated connectors.
Serial interface
You can optionally configure the device by connecting it to a PC with a configuration cable (separately available).
Reset button
Pressed up to 5 seconds: device restart
Pressed longer than 5 seconds: configuration reset and device restart.
Power
After connecting the cable to the device, turn the connector 90° clockwise to prevent it from accidental unplugging. Use only the supplied power adapter.
Ethernet interfaces
Use the cable with the Ethernet connectors to connect interface ETH1 (PoE) or ETH2 to your PC or a LAN switch.
USB interface
Connect compatible USB devices either directly to the USB interface, or use a suitable USB cable.

Before initial startup, please make sure to take notice of the information regarding the intended use in the enclosed installation guide!

Operate the device only with a professionally installed power supply at a nearby power socket that is freely accessible at all times.

Please observe the following when setting up the device

The power plug of the device must be freely accessible.
For devices to be operated on the desktop, please attach the adhesive rubber footpads.
