1.1 Introduction
The GAM is a Fiber to the Distribution Point (FTTDp) solution typically installed
inside a wiring closet. The GAM-8-MX and GAM-4-MX comes with one (1) 10
Gigabit SFP+ interfaces to support any type of fiber or PON standards (using an
SFP-based or external ONT as required that is compatible with the OLT).
The ITU-T G.9960 G.hn Wave-2 standard leverages the existing telephone wiring
(UTP, CAT-3 or CAT-5/5e) or RG-6/RG-59 coax cabling to deliver a Gigabit
Internet service to each subscriber without the cost, complexity and delays
associated with in-building fiber installation. G.hn is an Access technology for
Operators looking to simplify their access network and backend infrastructure with
an Ethernet-like technology that is highly scalable without some of the inherent
complexity of DSL-related technologies. With G.hn, Operators deliver advanced
services such as Gigabit High Speed Residential Internet and 4K IPTV without the
high capital and operational expenses associated with a fiber retrofit. Each G.hn
subscriber port supports up to 1.7 Gbps of dynamically allocated bandwidth for
near symmetrical Gigabit services over the existing telephone wire or coaxial
cable. The Positron GAM solution is MEF CE 2.0 compliant and is ideally suited to
deliver Business Ethernet services in an MDU and/or MTU deployment.
Note: Read Chapter 4 Safety and Warnings before proceeding.

1.2 GAM Connections
This section provides an overview of the connectors inside the GAM-8-MX and
GAM-4-MX. Please refer to section 2 for a detailed step-by-step installation
procedure.
1.2.1 Power Connection
The GAM-8-MX and GAM-4-MX are locally powered. If you need a Reverse
Powered Fed (RPF) GAM, please refer to the GAM-4-MRX or GAM-8-MRX
products.

1.2.2 Ethernet (SFP+) Port
Figure 2: GAM SFP+ Connectors
The GAM has one (1) SFP+ ports that support any MSA-compliant SFP/SFP+
modules. (Fiber: 1G, 10G and Copper RJ-45: 100M, 1G).
Important note: When connecting the SFP+ port to a Passive Optical Network
(PON) fiber connection, please make sure to use an Optical Network Unit (ONU)
approved by the OLT vendor you are using.

1.2.3 G.hn Ports
The GAM-8-MX has 8 G.hn ports and the GAM-4-MX has 4 G.hn ports.
110 Punch-down blocks are used to connect the copper pairs to each of the G.hn
ports. You can connect either a single pair (SISO mode) or two (2) pairs (MIMO
mode) per port. The 110 Punch-down blocks are located at the top left portion
inside the GAM IP67 enclosure.
Note: fast and resettable lightning protection is pre-installed on the GAM
motherboard for each copper pair.

1.2.4 Local management ports
The GAM devices have two (2) local management ports located near the top right
corner of the enclosure.

Figure 4: Local Management Ports are at the top right corner of the GAM circuitry
The CRAFT port is a standard serial (V.24, 115200, 8, N, 1)) port that provides
access to the command line interface of the GAM device.
The pinout of the RJ-45 serial port is compatible with the popular Cisco pinout as
per the following diagram:

The MGMT port is a 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet port provides access to the WEB
GUI interface using a standard WEB browser or an SSH interface to the command
line interface of the GAM device.
