This User Manual covers mANTBox models: mANTBox 2 12s, mANTBox 15s, mANTBox 19s
The mANTBox is a weatherproof outdoor device with a high power wireless interface, and one Gigabit Ethernet connector, which supports MDI-X auto-detection. The device has a built-in sectoral antenna. The device is packaged with a power adapter, a PoE injector, and a mounting kit.
First use
- Unscrew the lid screw by hand;
- The device accepts 8-30 V Passive PoE from a PoE injector (please compensate voltage for loss due to cable length) or from the power jack;
- Connect the device to the included PoE injector with Ethernet cable;
- Connect the PoE injector into the computer;
- Connect the power adapter to the PoE injector;
- Download WinBox configuration tool https://mt.lv/winbox;
- Default IP: 0.0.0.0, user name: admin and there is no password, or use the Neighbors tab and connect through MAC address;
- Once connected configure the device, so it has an active Internet connection https://mt.lv/configuration;
- Upgrade the RouterOS software to the latest version https://mt.lv/upgrade;
- In the "QuickSet, CPE" menu set up the following: Choose your country, to apply country regulation settings;
- Set the antenna gain, depending on the antenna used;
- Set up your router password in the bottom field.
Powering
The device comes with a 24 V 0.8 A power adapter. It can be used with the included PoE injector or the power jack. The device accepts 8-30 V for both methods. The maximum power consumption of the device is 11 W at 24 V. Please use the PoE injector with the DATA+POWER end connected to the mANTBox unit, and DATA end to your switch or PC.
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 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).
Mounting
The mANTbox 12s and 15s 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.
The mANTbox 19s comes with metal pole brackets, that clamp around metal poles. More detailed instructions for assembly are available on https://mikrotik.com
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. It is possible to connect a grounding wire to the device, by opening the lid, a grounding screw is provided there.
Expansion Slots and Ports
- Built-in wireless interface, 2x2 MIMO, AP/station/bridge modes supported.
- One 10/100/1000 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. The Ethernet port accepts 8-30V DC powering from a passive PoE injector.
- One SFP port for 1.25GBit modules, DDMI support.
Buttons and Jumpers
The reset button has the following functions:
- Hold this button during boot time until the 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.
Operating System Support
The device supports RouterOS software with the version number at or above what is indicated in the RouterOS menu /system resource. Other operating systems have not been tested.
