Hardware
See the Quick Start Guide for hardware installation and connections.
Grounding
Earth grounding helps protect against lightning and interference.
*The power installation must be performed by qualified service personnel and should conform to the National Electrical Code.
The Zyxel Device must be connected to earth ground to adequately ground the Zyxel Device and protect the operator from electrical hazards.
Qualified service personnel must confirm that the protective earthing terminal of the building is a valid terminal.
Before connecting the ground, ensure that a qualified service personnel has attached an appropriate ground lug to the ground cable.
1 Remove one of the ground screws from the Zyxel Device’s rear panel.
2 Secure a green/yellow ground cable (18 AWG or smaller) to the Zyxel Device’s rear panel using the ground screw.
3 Attach the other end of the cable to the ground, either to the same ground electrode as the pole you installed the Zyxel Device on or to the main grounding electrode of the building.
*Follow your country's regulations and safety instructions to electrically ground the Zyxel Device properly. If you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available, contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician.
Warning! Connect the ground cable before you connect any other cables or wiring.
The figure below illustrates how the ground cable (A) is attached to the Zyxel Device and goes to the earth ground (B).
Grounding Example
Zyxel Device Models With Single LEDs
The LEDs of some Zyxel Device models can be controlled by using the suppression feature such that the LEDs stay lit (ON) or OFF after the Zyxel Device is ready. Some Zyxel Device models also have Locator LED which allows you to see the actual location of the Zyxel Device among several devices in the network. See Zyxel Device Product Feature Comparison to check which models support these features. Refer to Overview for the LED Suppression and Locator menus in standalone mode.

Nebula Control Center
If your Zyxel Device is registered with NCC, you can unregister it to reset it to its factory default settings.
1 Go to Organization-wide > License & inventory > Devices tab in the NCC portal.
2 Select the Zyxel Device you want to remove, then click Actions > Remove from organization.
3 Click the Yes button to confirm.
PoE
Power Over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that allows Ethernet cables to supply power and transmit data simultaneously through a single Ethernet cable. You can use PoE when the Zyxel Device is hard to reach a power outlet or to simplify cabling.
The following example shows a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) supplying power and transmitting data to the Zyxel Device, along with other Powered Devices (PDs) such as an IP camera and an IP telephone.
PoE Example Application - PSE
The following example shows a PSE using a PoE Extender (PoEE) to supply power and transmit data to the Zyxel Device, along with other PDs such as an IP camera and an IP telephone.
PoE Example Application - PSE with PoE Extender
The following example shows the PoE Injector (PoEI) delivering power from the power outlet and transmitting data from the non-PoE (NPoE) device to the Zyxel Device.
PoE Example Application - PoE Injector
To view the Zyxel Device’s supported PoE standards, see Zyxel Device Product Feature Comparison. Use Ethernet cables that correspond to the PoE standard your Zyxel Device supports (see PoE Standards).
PoE standards are:
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE)
IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet + (PoE+)
IEEE 802.3bt Power over Ethernet ++ (PoE++)

DC Power Connection
The Zyxel Device uses a single D-sub series terminal block plug with two pins. Use two wires to connect to the terminal block: one for the positive terminal and one for the negative terminal.
*The current rating of the power wires must be greater than 16 AWG. The power supply to which the Zyxel Device connects must have a built-in circuit breaker or switch to toggle the power.
*When installing the Zyxel Device power wire, push the wire firmly into the terminal as deep as possible and make sure that no exposed (bare) wire can be seen or touched.
Exposed power wire is dangerous. Use extreme care when connecting a DC power source to the Zyxel Device.
WARNING! Working with high-voltage DC power is dangerous. To ensure safety of equipment and regulatory compliance, the DC power connection must be performed by a certified technician.
To connect a power supply:
1 Use a screwdriver to loosen the captive screws on the D-sub's terminal block.
2 Connect one end of a power wire to the Zyxel Device’s 48 V (return) pin and tighten the captive screw.
3 Connect the other end of the power wire to the positive terminal on the DC power supply.
4 Connect one end of a power wire to the Zyxel Device’s –48 V (input) pin and tighten the captive screw.
5 Connect the other end of the power wire to the negative terminal on the power supply.
6 Insert the D-sub terminal block’s male connector plug into the Zyxel Device’s DC in 24–48 V port and tighten the two captive screws.
SFP+ Slot
This is the slot for SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceivers. A transceiver is a single unit that houses a transmitter and a receiver. The Zyxel Device does not come with a transceiver. You must use a transceiver that comply with the Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP+) Transceiver MultiSource Agreement (MSA). See the SFF committee’s specifications.
You can change a transceiver while the Zyxel Device is operating. You can use a different transceiver to connect to devices with different types of fiber optic or even copper cable connectors.
WARNING! To avoid possible eye injury, do not look into an operating fiber optic module’s connectors.
HANDLING! All transceivers are static sensitive. To prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD), it is recommended you attach an ESD preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface when you install or remove a transceiver.
STORAGE! All modules are dust sensitive. When not in use, always keep the dust plug on. Avoid getting dust and other contaminant into the optical bores, as the optics do not work correctly when obstructed with dust.
Transceiver Installation
Use the following steps to install a transceiver.
1 Attach an ESD preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface.
2 Align the transceiver in front of the slot opening.
3 Make sure the latch is in the lock position (latch styles vary), then insert the transceiver into the slot with the exposed section of PCB board facing down.
4 Press the transceiver firmly until it clicks into place.
5 The Zyxel Device automatically detects the installed transceiver.
6 Remove the dust plugs from the transceiver and cables (dust plug styles vary).
7 Identify the signal transmission direction of the fiber optic cables and the transceiver. Insert the fiber optic cable into the transceiver.

Connecting the Fiber Optic Cables
Transceiver Removal
Use the following steps to remove an SFP transceiver.
1 Attach an ESD preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface on the chassis.
2 Remove the fiber optic cables from the transceiver.
3 Pull out the latch and down to unlock the transceiver (latch styles vary).
*Make sure the transceiver’s latch is pushed all the way down, so the transceiver can be pulled out successfully.
4 Pull the latch, or use your thumb and index finger to grasp the tabs on both sides of the transceiver, and carefully slide it out of the slot.
*Do NOT pull the transceiver out by force. You could damage it. If the transceiver will not slide out, grasp the tabs on both sides of the transceiver with a slight up or down motion and carefully slide it out of the slot. If unsuccessful, contact Zyxel Support to prevent damage to your Zyxel Device and transceiver.
5 Insert the dust plug into the ports on the transceiver and the cables.
