First use

1. Open cover (see Opening cover).
2. Connect the Ethernet cable from your PC to the Ethernet port.
3. Plug the device into the power source (see Powering).
4. Download the Winbox (see Configuration).
5. Open and search the MAC address in the Neighbors tab.
6. Click on the MAC address and connect.
7. The username is admin and there is no password. The default IP address from the Ethernet port is 192.168.88.1 for configuration if connecting without WinBox, then set the IP address of your computer to 19.168.88.2.
8. Update the device to the latest RouterOS version, make sure that the device has an internet connection https://mt.lv/configuration.
9. Set a Country, to make sure local regulations are observed.
10. Set the antenna gain, depending on the antenna used.
11. Set up your password.
12. To manually update the device, please go to https://mikrotik.com/download.
13. Choose (ARM) packages for this device and download them to your PC.
14. Upload downloaded packages to the (Winbox) (Files) menu and reboot the device.
15. Updating your RouterOS software to the latest version will ensure the best performance, stability, and security updates, https://mt.lv/upgrade.

Powering

The device accepts power in the following ways:

• The Ethernet port accepts 802.3af/at PoE 12-57 V DC ⎓.
• Direct-input power jack (5.5 mm outside and 2 mm inside, female, pin positive plug) accepts 12-57 V DC⎓.

The power consumption under maximum load can reach 21 W.
Connecting to a PoE Adapter:

1. Connect the Ethernet cable from the device to the PoE+DATA port of the PoE adapter;
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from your local network (LAN) to the PoE adapter;
3. Connect the power cord to the adapter, and then plug the power cord into a power outlet.

Mounting

The mANTbox comes with a QuickMount adapter that can be attached to a wall using the included screws, or attached to a pole, using the included metal mounting ring. The QuickMount allows the device to be adjusted horizontally and vertically.

1. Attach the quick mount to the back of the device.
   
2. Attach the device to the pole and secure it with a provided steel clamp. Clamping diameter 35 – 70 mm.
   
3. Please avoid connecting a loose Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port, secure the cable to a wall or the pole, so that the cable weight is not pulling the port. It is recommended to secure the Ethernet cable less than 2m from the device. This is to ensure that the cable doesn't damage the port by its weight, or doesn't fall out. 

We recommend using Cat6 shielded cables.
Warning! This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 25 cm between the device and your body. The operation of this equipment in the residential environment could cause radio interference.

Configuration

We recommend clicking the "Check for updates" button and updating your RouterOS software to the latest version to ensure the best performance and stability. RouterOS includes many configuration options in addition to what is described in this document. We suggest visiting the RouterOS documentation page to get yourself accustomed to the possibilities: https://mt.lv/help.
In case an IP connection is not available, the Winbox tool (https://mt.lv/winbox) can be used to connect to the MAC address of the device from the LAN side (all access is blocked from the internet port by default).

Grounding

The installation infrastructure (towers and masts), as well as the router itself, must be properly grounded. The device includes a grounding wire attachment screw behind the case door. Attach your grounding wire to the grounding screw, then attach the other end of the grounding wire to the grounded mast. This is to substantially reduce the risk of ESD and lightning damage.

The device includes a grounding connection (marked ⏚).

Opening cover

To open the cover, please turn the captive screw by hand anti-clockwise and lift it.

Expansion Slots and Ports

• Built-in wireless interface 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz.
• One SFP port for 1.25GBit modules, DDMI support.
• Gigabit Ethernet port, supporting automatic cross/straight cable correction (Auto MDI/X), so you can use either straight or crossover cable for connecting to other network devices. 

Buttons and Jumpers

The reset button has the following functions:

• Hold this button during boot time until LED light starts flashing, release the button to reset RouterOS configuration (total 5 seconds).
• Keep holding for 5 more seconds, LED turns solid, release now to turn on CAP mode. The device will now look for a CAPsMAN server (total 10 seconds).
• Or Keep holding the button for 5 more seconds until LED turns off, then release it to make the RouterBOARD look for Netinstall servers (total 15 seconds).

Regardless of the above option used, the system will load the backup RouterBOOT loader if the button is pressed before power is applied to the device. Useful for RouterBOOT debugging and recovery.

Accessories

The package includes the following accessories that come with the device:

• Switching Power Supply DC ⎓ 24 V;
• Hose Clamp, 35-70 mm;
• Fastening set K-41;
• Gigabit POE injector cable with shielded connector;
