Planning Your Installation

HotPort 6000 Series nodes are easy to install. They are mechani-
cally compatible with existing HotPort nodes. 6000 Series nodes
form their own mesh, however - they will not mesh with 3000 Series
nodes.

Staging Considerations

You should set up and test your nodes indoors, on a bench or ta-
ble, before installing them. This will allow you to pre-configure the
nodes so that they are all on the same RF channel, etc.
1.
Set up your HotPort node in a lab with all other HotPort units using
the two provided antennas.
2.
Make all the necessary cable connections and power the Hot-
Port units.

Required Tools and Supplies

The following tools and supplies must be provided by the customer:
•
#2 Philips screwdriver
•
Small adjustable wrench
•
Wire cutters to cut tie wraps around cables
•
Ladders, lifts, and/or platforms to install the HotPort node on
poles and structures
•
10 AWG grounding cable to connect the HotPort node to earth
ground
•
Grounding connectors and grounding rod
•
Weatherproofing kit – this kit provides electrical tape and butyl
mastic. Check your local distributor for weatherproofing anten-
nas and coaxial cables.
•
Hose clamps, band clamps, U-bolts, or similar brackets, suitable
for attaching the HotPort node to your chosen antenna mast.
6 HotPort 6000 Series Mesh Nodes
6200 Series outdoor nodes are improved compared to earlier de-
signs. For new installations, a single weatherproof power cord is
provided. No external 'brick' is used. The 6200 Series can power up
to two peripherals via PoE, as well. For existing installations, the
6200 Series can accept the DC power from supplies used to power
3200 Series and 3600 Series nodes. The 6200 Series will also fit the
existing pole mount.
3.
Install the HotView software on a workstation and connect the
workstation to a HotPort node (see the HotView User Guide for
information about installing and using HotView).
4.
Use HotView to configure the HotPort nodes and create a small
mesh network. Configure and test the network settings you
plan to use.
•
Hose clamps, band clamps, U-bolts, or similar brackets, suitable
for mounting the antennas to your chosen antenna mast.
If you need to build a custom cable to connect a wired-Ethernet de-
vice to your HotPort, you will need an RJ-45 crimping tool and a
Catgory 5 Ethernet cable with at least one RJ-45 connector to con-
nect a peripheral to the HotPort.
The following tools and supplies are optional:
•
Cordless screwdriver #2 Philips
•
Cordless drill
•
Antenna stand (used to mount the antenna pole)
