Frequently Asked Questions

Can I connect several Ethernet devices through 6GK5747-1AA30-6AA0?

The client supports up to eight IP nodes and eight MAC nodes on its Ethernet side.

Does 6GK5747-1AA30-6AA0 support iPCF operation for mobile equipment?

The client supports iPCF mode, which optimizes data throughput and reduces handover times.

Can I power 6GK5747-1AA30-6AA0 through its Ethernet cable?

IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet is supported at a nominal 48 V DC with a permissible input range of 36–57 V DC.

Are external antennas included with 6GK5747-1AA30-6AA0?

Antennas are not supplied with the device and must be selected separately for the intended installation.

What should I do with an unused antenna socket on 6GK5747-1AA30-6AA0?

Fit a terminating resistor to the unused socket when operating with only one antenna.

Can I install 6GK5747-1AA30-6AA0 outdoors without an enclosure?

The IP30 cabinet version requires a suitable installation enclosure rather than direct exposure to outdoor conditions.

Is 6GK5747-1AA30-6AA0 the US order-number variant?

This is the 6AA0 variant, while the US-specific order number ends in 6AB0.

Compatibility & Ordering Notes

Before ordering 6GK5747-1AA30-6AA0: Match this W747-1 client to the required wireless country approval, antenna system, Ethernet node count and iPCF network configuration.

Compatibility Checklist for 6GK5747-1AA30-6AA0

• Retain the complete 6AA0 suffix rather than substituting the US-specific 6AB0 variant.
• Order approved external antennas separately and terminate an unused antenna socket.
• Provide the required DC SELV supply or an IEEE 802.3af PoE source.
• Use the IP30 cabinet installation arrangement and allow for the specified operating temperature range.
