SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Antennas The radio node includes four internal Tx/Rx antennas with a peak gain of 5dBi and operates in 2x2 mode with MIMO or four optional ports with QMA coaxial connectors for external antennas.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Ports The radio node has one 1 Gigabit Ethernet port that supports a Category 5e (Cat 5e) or better twisted-pair cable with an RJ-45 connector. Figure 6 shows the Ethernet port. There are two LEDs on the connector: • Link: Steady green state indicates a normal Layer 2 link connection has been established. • Activity: Yellow blinking indicates data activity.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Input Power The radio node receives its power from a standard Power Over Ethernet (PoE+) switch (typical) or injector. The radio node is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ specification. Per IEEE 802.3at, use standard Cat 5e or better twisted-pair cable with a maximum length restriction of 100 meters (328 feet) for PoE+. This restriction minimizes power loss between the PoE+ power source and the radio node.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide The illustration below shows a generic single-port PoE+ injector. Use this injector only when a PoE+ Ethernet switch is not available. CON NEC T PoE P LUS ON OUT IN Figure 9 Typical PoE+ Injector To connect the PoE+ injector to a radio node Step 1 Attach the injector power cord to a power source. Step 2 Connect an unpowered Ethernet cable from a switch to the IN port on the injector.

SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Select the Radio Node Location Radio nodes can be installed in a wide range of locations including walls, ceilings, and spaces above the ceiling. Follow the installation guidelines for selecting appropriate mounting locations for the unit. When mounting a radio node vertically, align the bottom-side fins vertically for superior cooling.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Bracket Mounting and Cabling Guidelines Incorrectly cabling and mounting a radio node can result in crushed cables and loss of communications to the unit. Follow these guidelines in cabling the radio node and mounting it on the bracket: • Ensure that the cabling is properly routed and dressed. • Ensure that the radio node is fully inserted into the mount bracket so that it locks into place and is flush.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Attach the mount bracket to the radio node as shown in Figure 11: Bracket Keyholes Figure 11 Radio Node Slides into Mount Bracket Installing the Radio Node (Method 1) Use this method with the quarter-inch bracket when routing the Ethernet cable through an opening where the bracket will be mounted. To route the cable directly and mount the radio node Step 1 Cut a hole in the ceiling or wall to route the Ethernet cable through.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Step 3 With two user-provided screws, attach the mount bracket assembly to a wall or ceiling. The screw holes are sized for an M4 (#10) or larger screw. Ensure the screws have a snug fit onto the studs, sheetrock, anchor, or other material you are bolting onto and that you match the screw head with the appropriate cutout hole size on the bracket. If needed, use a flat washer between the bracket and screw head to ensure a secure fastening.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide If needed, use a flat washer between the bracket and screw head to ensure a secure fastening. Figure 14 shows the 1.25-inch mount bracket. Figure 14 1.25-Inch Mount Bracket Step 2 Insert the RJ-45 connector through the rectangular bracket opening into the Ethernet port as shown in Figure 15: Figure 15 Route and Terminate the Cable Step 3 Insert the radio node into the mount bracket. 18 SpiderCloud Wireless, Inc.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Completing the Installation Step 1 Attach a padlock or cable tie wrap into the provided slot to secure the unit to the mount bracket. Figure 16 Padlock and Lock Holes The lock in the above figure is shown schematically. The orientation is for illustration purposes (not accurate) since the bracket is typically wall or ceiling mounted. Note Step 2 The radio node boots up and attempts to connect to the services node.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Boot Sequence and Services Node Communication On initial boot, the radio node performs the following boot sequence. When finished, all devices are reachable.
SpiderCloud Radio Node - SCRN-220 Hardware Installation Guide Radio Node LED Boot Sequence The radio node state machine is sequential and progresses in the following order: State 0 -> State 1 -> State 2 -> State 3 -> State 4 -> State 5 A normal boot sequence transitions through all these states sequentially and the LED state transitions accordingly. If the radio node fails to transition to the next state, the system restarts the boot sequence, starting with State 0.

Operating System Booting Flashing Green Description Possible Failures and Actions The radio node loads the operating system and starts the default platform applications. The radio node moves to the next state (State 5) when it establishes connectivity with the service node. 5. Running Solid Green The operating system is running.
