Do not use port 2 or port 3 of a DC HotPort 7020 mesh node to power a HotPort 5020 node. A HotPort 5020 node needs PoE+ or 802.3at, and the ports of a HotPort 7020 mesh node are PoE 802.3af-compliant only. Caution! You cannot use a HotPort 7020 power source (12V) to power to a HotPort 5020-M mesh node, which requires 15V. HotPort 5020-M mesh node connections: • Attach the 5dBi omni-directional staging antennas to these connectors: • Radio 1/Antenna connector 1 • Radio 2/ Antenna connector 1 • Attach the Ethernet cable from the computer to the mesh node • Attach the HotPort 5020-M mesh node to the PoE+ injector • Attach the PoE+ injector and AC cable to power Caution!
