Installation Instructions:

Unit is powered via CAT5e by midspan or endspan. NetWaySP1A is not intended to be connected to outside plant leads and should be installed indoors within the protected premises.

  1. Mount NetWaySP1A in the desired location utilizing the mounting hole (Fig. 1a, pg. 2). Use a proper fastener and/or wall anchor when securing NetWaySP1A with a screw through its mounting hole to the wall.
    Note: Earth ground can be used, if needed, for high transient or outdoor environments. If used, insert an Earth ground wire (included with product) into the internal ground terminal until secured (a slight tug can check stability) & fasten the free end to a chassis earth ground.
    If earth ground is not attached and needed, refer to Fig.1b, pg.2 for manual placement.

  2. Connect the structured cable from the port marked [PoE 10/100/1000 In] on NetWaySP1A to the corresponding input of a UL Listed Ethernet switch or a midspan. PoE LED will illuminate indicating normal operation (Fig. 1, pg. 2).

  3. Connect fiber optic cable to a fiber SFP module. Connect the module to the port marked [SFP] on the NetWaySP1A. Connect the other end of the fiber cable to an SFP module of a remote device. SFP LED will illuminate indicating data connection (Fig. 1, pg. 2).

Interconnecting Multiple Fiber/Ethernet Devices:

NetWaySP1A can be used for daisy-chaining two (2) Fiber/Ethernet devices such as Altronix NetWaySP3 Series or NetWay4EX Series hardened switches.
Refer to NetWaySP3WPN / NetWay4EWPN Installation Instructions.

  1. Connect one end of a CAT5 cable to one of the Ethernet ports of the hardened PoE switch e.g., NetWaySP3WPN or NetWay4EWPN (Fig. 3, pg. 3).
  2. Connect the other end of the structured cable to the port marked [PoE 10/100/1000 In] on NetWaySP1A (Fig. 3, pg. 3, Fig. 1b pg. 2).
  3. Connect fiber optic cable to a fiber SFP module. Connect the module to the port marked [SFP] on the NetWaySP1A. Connect the other end of the fiber cable to an SFP module and connect that module to the Fiber input of the next NetWaySP3WPN or NetWay4EWPN (Fig. 3, pg. 3, Fig. 1 pg. 2).
