4) Affix Antenna Hub(s)
a) Mount using 1/4 inch mounting holes.
b) It may be necessary to temporarily disconnect RF cables
(with reader powered off) in order to access the mounting holes.
5) Next Steps
• Set up the reader following instructions in the Speedway Revolution Installation
and Operations Guide.
• Develop controlling application using the LLRP Toolkit.
• Find helpful information here: http://support.impinj.com.
2) Enable the Antenna Hub Feature
a) In the WebUI, click on the “Enable” button in the Antenna Hub section to
enable the feature. You will need to manually reboot the reader (click on
the reboot button in the WebUI) for the changes to take effect.
b) The Antenna Hub environment can also be enabled from Rshell using the
command below and then rebooting the reader:

3) Connect Cables
a) All cable connections should be made with the reader powered off.
b) RF signal connections using RF cables
a. Requires cables with SMA male connectors for the Antenna Hub
connection and R-TNC female connectors for the reader connections.
b. Attach the RF cable to the appropriate reader antenna port and Antenna
Hub input port. NOTE: Antenna Hub ports are marked 1 through 8 to
show the port ordering. These port markings correspond to a different
antenna number sequence when connected to the reader and GPIO
Adapter ports 2, 3, or 4 (as referenced in the diagram)
c. Connect the appropriate RF cables between the Antenna Hub output
ports and antennas.
d. Unused ports can be left empty or terminated.
c) Digital signal connections with GPIO Adapter
a. Use the cable provided with the GPIO Adapter to connect the reader at
its GPIO port to the GPIO Adapter.
b. Use standard Cat5 cable to connect the GPIO Adapter and Antenna
Hub using the RJ-45 connectors. IMPORTANT: Check that the reader
antenna port number and GPIO Adapter output port number match at
the same Antenna Hub (e.g., reader antenna port 1 and GPIO Adapter
port 1 are connected to the same Antenna Hub). The system will not
operate correctly with mismatched wiring.
d) Power the reader and look for the Antenna Hub LEDs to light in sequence
to show that it is enabled and operating.
e) Click on “Check connections” in the WebUI Antenna Hub page for help with
any connection problems.
