Overview

1. For a fast, successful installation, make sure you have:

•A non-switched electrical outlet to power.

•Access to an Ethernet and/or LTE connection.

•A length of CAT-5 or 6 jumper cables to connect Ethernet equipment.

•An activated SIM card. Consult with you your Carrier.

•Any cable tie-down or dressing desired

2. Select a mounting location.

3. Attach the antenna.

4. Install the Power Adapter.

5. Attach any Ethernet cables to the ER2000 RUs and draw the slack cable to the associated Ethernet Equipment.

6. Install and activate the SIM card.

7. Test the link.

FCC regulations require that this device be professionally installed by a person knowledgeable in electronics and

trained in the correct installation of this device.

Unpacking the ER2000 units

The ER2000 units come ready to use. To complete the installation, you will need a CAT-5 jumper cable to

connect your network equipment and an activated SIM card from your Carrier. The following components are

included in the ER2000 system:

ER2000™ Router Unit (RU)

The RU is the heart of the ER2000 system. Powered

by a 580 MHz MIPS 24K CPU Core, the RU

contains the digital electronics and the transceiver

system, all in one small, power-efficient unit. It routes

traffic between the local connected devices and the

internet through LTE (4G) WAN connections and WiFi

or Ethernet local connections. The WAN Connection is

LTE Category 1 (Release 9), enabling 10Mbps

download speeds and 5Mbps upload speeds. The WiFi

LAN operates in the license-free, 2.4 GHz ISM band

and supports 802.11 B/G/N standards.

AC Power Adapter

The supplied power adapter provides an easy connection to standard AC electrical

outlets. The adapter plugs into the RU barrel-jack and provides 12 VDC @ 2A of power.

We recommend that you use only the AC Power transformer supplied with the ER2000

unit, or contact Connected IO for a suitable replacement power adapter.

Antennas

Each ER2000 comes with four (4) Omni-Directional antennas. Antennas should

be installed on the unit before it is powered up. For applications with low

bandwidth requirements or in areas with solid 4G coverage, one antenna

(primary) many be sufficient. For all other applications, two antennas (primary

and secondary) are required.

LEDs

On the top panel of the RU are a set of 7 LEDs.

•The first shows Amber if there is a WiFi connection.

•The second shows yellow if the RU is powered on.

•The next 5 LEDs are green and show the LTE Signal Strength.

Ports

The RU has the following port configuration:

•Two 10/100BASE-T Ethernet ports (RJ-45 connectors)

•One RS-232 (DB-9) port with configurable GPIO

•One mini-USB 2.0 OTG connector; 0.5A power

•One 2FF UICC card slot

Antenna Connectors

The RU has 4 SMA antenna connecters, two for the LTE WAN and two for the WiFi LAN. Any included antenna

can attach to any SMA connector on the RU. You MUST attach an antenna to the primary antenna port, labelled

PRI on the top of the RU. The diversity antenna, labelled DIV, can be excluded, but it will give you better overall

LTE performance in environments with weaker coverage. If the RU shows 5 bars with just the PRI antenna

connected, then you can confidently choose to not use the DIV antenna.

Planning the Installation

Proper selection of the installation site is important for performance, safety, and aesthetics. In this topic we will

look at the factors that go into a proper site selection.

Determining the Location of the LTE Tower

To maximize performance, you need to choose a location that is accessible to the LTE tower, Ethernet network

components, and connected devices. It is important to verify that you do not exceed the distance capabilities of

the ER2000. If you are unsure of the distance between the two points, you can use a measuring device such as

range finders. You can also look at the architect’s site plan or contact a local surveying service for assistance.

For LTE, it’s as simple as looking at the signal strength LEDs on the RU. 4-5 bars indicates an acceptable signal

and, therefore, an acceptable mounting location. If this location is fixed and above objects moving in the

environment, is should be a satisfactory.

For Ethernet and Ethernet-enabled connected devices, you must be within 300 feet, cable-wise, of the RU.

For WiFi, a smartphone with a WiFi signal Strength meter can tell you about the performance at a given location

in the environment relative to the ER2000 RU.

Mounting the RU high up on a wall will tend to improve the wireless performance, while mounting it under a

metal desk will detract. In certain cases where the RU cannot be mounted in an ideal location, an external, high-

gain antenna can be used that overcomes performance limitations. Please contact your Connected IO

representative to learn more.

Power and PoE Adapters

If the location of the BPU is not close to a Power Outlet, you can use an extension cord or a PoE adapter kit to

extend your connection. Before selecting an electrical outlet for use in powering the PoE Adapter, verify that the

electrical outlet is non-switched (not attached to a wall switch).

Installing the ER2000

A Brief Word About Safety

If you chose to mount the antenna high up on a wall, make sure to use the appropriate type of ladder.

Follow ladder safety tips provided by the manufacturer. Connected IO recommends that you have a

partner available to secure the ladder and to offer assistance. Connected IO recommends that you not

mount the unit during stormy weather, on windy days, or anywhere near electrical cables.

Inserting a SIM Card

Every Connected IO device needs a SIM card to operate in the LTE domain. It is possible to operate

an ER2000 without a SIM card only when using it as an Ethernet-connected router. The ER2000

uses a Mini (2FF) size SIM card which is installed in a slot un the underside of the RU.

Obtain an LTE SIM with an active data plan from your cellular account manager or dealer sales

representative. If requested during activation, the IMEI or the MEID for the device can be found on

the product label.

Insert the SIM notch-end first, gold side down into the SIM slot of the RU. You should hear it click into place.

Apply Power to the RU

Connect the Power Adapter to the RU and plug it into the wall outlet. If the RU is properly powered, the POWER

(2nd) LED will illuminate green, and the LED on the Ethernet jack will illuminate as well.
