3. Guía de instalación

3.1 Preparación para la instalación

Ensure the window or door frame is clean and dry before installation. Identify the optimal path for the cable to minimize bending and stress on the flat ribbon section.

3.2 Routing the Cable Through a Window

  1. Open the window or door where the cable will pass through.
  2. Carefully place the ultra-flat ribbon section of the cable across the window sill or door frame. Ensure the ribbon lies flat and is not twisted.
  3. Close the window or door slowly, ensuring the ribbon is not pinched or damaged. The slim design allows the window to close completely.
  4. Secure the indoor and outdoor connector boxes to the window frame or adjacent wall using the adhesive backing or appropriate fasteners (not included). The connector boxes are designed to allow cables to exit at 90-degree angles for a neat installation.
  5. Connect your external Ethernet cable to the outdoor connector and your internal Ethernet cable to the indoor connector. Ensure all connections are secure.
