CAUTION!
The product is intended for indoor use only. Ethernet and attached equipment are intended for use within the same building with equipotential bonding, and not intended to be placed in separate buildings or structures. Failure to deploy as described could result in permanent damage from lightning or other electrical events and void the warranty. Furthermore, all connections from outside of the building must be disconnected before use.

Before Installation
Before installing the equipment, inspect the device. If damage has occurred during shipping, file a claim with the carrier, and then contact Adtran Customer Support. For more information, refer to the product warranty available online at https://adtran/wp_support_warranty.

Required Tools
No special tools are required for installing the SDG-8610.

Mounting Options
There are two options to install the SDG-8610: desktop and wall mount. Be sure to route and secure the cables in a manner that will prevent damage. These options are described below.

Desktop Installation
The SDG-8610 can be placed on a desk or table. Table 1 shows the recommended minimum distance (in feet and meters) between the device and household appliances to reduce interference.

Table 1 : Recommended Minimum Distance Between the SDG and Household Appliances

Household Appliance| Recommended Minimum Distance (in feet and meters)
---|---
Microwave ovens| 30 feet / 9 meters
Baby monitor – analog| 20 feet / 6 meters
Baby monitor – digital| 40 feet / 12 meters
Cordless phone – analog| 20 feet / 6 meters
Cordless phone – digital| 30 feet / 9 meters
Bluetooth devices| 20 feet / 6 meters
ZigBee| 20 feet / 6 meters

WARNING!
Ensure that the SDG-8610 does not come in contact with water or other liquids.

CAUTION!
Ensure that the SDG-8610 is not located in direct sunlight or next to any thermal obstructions.

Wall Mount Installation
The SDG-8610 can be mounted on a wall. Two #6×1 in. (3.5×25 mm) screws with plastic anchors are required (not supplied). Install mounting hardware per the Manufacturer’s directions. The distance between mounting screws is 3 5/32 in. (80 mm).

Supplying Power to the device

  1. Connect the barrel plug of the power adapter to the Power port on the back panel of the SDG.
  2. Plug the power adapter into the wall outlet.
  3. Turn the power switch to ON. The SDG will begin powering up.
  4. Confirm that the power is connected properly. The Multi-function Status LED should be lit on the front of the gateway.

Subscriber Connections
The following subscriber connections are available on the back of the SDG-8610:

  • 1x 1G Ethernet interface (RJ45 Connector) – LAN port
  • 1x 1G Ethernet interface (RJ45 Connector) -WAN-1 port
  • 1x SFP cage -WAN-2 port

Resetting the SDG
A reset button is available if the SDG-8610 needs to be rebooted or restored to factory defaults. To reboot the SDG-8610, press the Reset button on the back panel of the device for less than 5 seconds. To reset the device to factory defaults, press the Reset button for 5 seconds or more.

Understanding the Status of LEDs

A multi-function status LED on the front of the unit and status LEDs on the back panel allow you to monitor the device status.

Multifunction Status LED
The multifunction status LED on the front of the unit indicates the device status. Table 2 defines the multifunction status LED state when running SmartOS.

Table 2 : Multifunction Status LED for SmartOS

To connect the Ethernet interfaces, refer to Features and insert a Category 5E (or better) RJ45 cable into the LAN port (labeled LAN) and the WAN port (labeled WAN) until there is an audible “click”. If an SFP pluggable is used, insert it in the SFP port. Now connect a fiber-optic cable according to your cabling plan.

Quick Setup for the SDG-8610 SDG
The SDG product line uses SmartOS. Scan the QR code labeled Intellifi QuickStart located on the back of the unit. You will be presented with a series of self-guided steps to choose your account password, select gateway or access point mode, and configure the WiFi SSID and passphrase. The specified account password will be used when logging into the GUI in the SDG.

Logging Into the SDG-8610

Using SmartOS
A browser-based user interface (GUI) is used to manually configure the SDG-8610. The following steps describe how to connect and login to the device:

  1. Ensure your computer is connected to the SDG-8610 either via Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection to the LAN port.

  2. Configure your computer’s network interface to acquire an IP address automatically using DHCP.

  3. Open a web browser and enter the following: http://router or http://setup. A sign-in page should appear. If you are unable to connect to the SDG-8610 using either of these shortcuts, you can also enter the IP address of the unit. The default IP address is 192.168.1.1

  4. The default username is admin. The password is the account password that was specified during the quick setup.
    NOTE
    If you have forgotten the password for this device, select Forgot password? and follow the instructions to reset the gateway configuration to the factory defaults. Next, follow the instructions under Using SmartOS.

  5. Select Sign In. The Dashboard page appears, showing data about the system.

Product Specifications

Electrical
Power is provided by a 12V DC power adapter that is included with the SDG-8610. The power adapter operates from a power source of 100 to 240V AC, 50 – 60 Hz. The nominal output is 12V DC ±5 % with a minimum current rating of 1.5 Amps. For US and Canadian applications, a UL-listed limited power source (LPS) is supplied and required for use. For deployment outside of North America, an LPS specifically approved for that country, such as a CE Mark, is supplied and required for use.

NOTE
It is strongly suggested that the power supply (a 5 ft. (1.5 m) power cord) included with the SDG-8610 be connected to a surge suppressor device that can have its extension cable. The surge protection device should provide L-N, L-G, and N-G protection. It is also recommended that the device contains a visual ‘GOOD’ indicator.
