1 Introduction
The Synapse xBR V3x2 xTable Reader is part of a proprietary data acquisition and tracking
system. It provides transmitters and multiple receivers to collect data, which can be then
sent over Ethernet connections to a data collection/concentration object.
1.1 Purpose
This document provides basic installation and user instructions for the Synapse xBR
V3x2 xTable Reader.
1.2 Definitions
Term Definition
PoE Power over Ethernet
PCA Printed circuit assembly
1.3 Overview
The xBR V3x2 consists of 2 individual xBR PCAs mounted in an aluminum enclosure. The
2 PCAs are functionally separate, each having its own antennas, power supply
connection, Ethernet connections, and MAC address. The connections on the unit are
designated A and B to specify to which internal xBR unit they belong. The enclosure is
labeled with the MAC addresses of both the xBR PCAs.

5 Installation
5.1 Trained Installation and Service Personnel Warning
Warning! Installation and service of this product is to be performed by trained
installation and service personnel only. Read and follow all warning notices and
instructions marked on the product or included in the documentation. Before installing
the product, read the rest of this document and follow specific product instructions.
When installing, the placement of the device must also satisfy the following installation
requirements:
• If not operating with PoE (Power over Ethernet), connect the unit’s AC adapter
to an AC wall outlet (100-240 VAC) using only the standard power cord/adapter
provided with the product.
• Placement must allow for easily disconnecting the power cord/adapter of the
device from the AC wall outlet.
• Do not cover the device or block the airflow to the device with any other objects.
• Keep the device away from excessive heat and humidity and keep the device
free from vibration and dust.
• Installation must at all times conform to local regulations.
• Connections to Wireless Access Point can be made with either Unshielded
Twisted Pair (UTP) or Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cabling.
5.2 Electrostatic Discharge Warning
Warning! Wear an anti-static wrist strap or take other suitable measures to prevent
electrostatic discharge when handling this equipment.
5.3 Telecom Warning
Note: This unit is intended for local (intra-building) connections only and is not
designed or evaluated for direct connections to the public telecommunications/cable
distributions systems. Cable and Ethernet connections should be made in accordance to
the National Electrical Code (NEC). For example, one of the following should be true*:
- Cable runs are located in the same building as this unit.
- Cable runs through air between buildings are less than 42m (140ft).
- Cable runs between buildings are directly buried.
- Cable runs between buildings are in underground conduit, where a continuous metallic
cable shield or a continuous metallic conduit containing the cable is bonded to each
building grounding electrode system.
*These options are from the US National Electrical Code, Sections 800.10, 800.12, 800.13, 800.31,
800.32, 800.33, and 800.40.

6 Connection Guide
Each module in the xBR V3x2 Long Range Reader has several connection points as shown in
Figure 2 and Figure 3:
Transmit Antenna SMA – This is a female SMA connection for the transmit antenna. The
transmit antenna must be installed at all times when the unit is powered up and
transmitting. Transmitting without the antenna installed may damage the unit.
This antenna must be of an approved or supplied type. Use of an unauthorized antenna is
not allowed.
DC Power Jack – This provides a means of powering the unit if PoE is not available.
Connect only a supplied or an approved power supply.
