Dragino DLSO8N LoRaWAN Gateway & Antenna Mounting Brackets

prusaprinters

The Dragino DLSO8N Outdoor LoRaWAN Gateway comes with mounting brackets for both the gateway itself and the antenna that I do not particularly care for. I created my own brackets to replace them. These brackets are designed for 1" EMT conduit. A 10' length is suitably rigid for this gateway.The Dragino_Base.stl bracket attaches to the body of the gateway using the provided small Phillips (or JIS?) screws. (4) M4 heat inserts and (4) M4x25 cap head screws are required (see parts list below). Attach this bracket to the DLSO8N first.The Dragino_Clamp.stl clamps to the base. This can be loosely assembled to the base with the 4 M4 cap head screws, then slide it over the 1" EMT conduit and tighten it with a 3mm hex wrench.The Dragino_Antenna_Bracket.stl is for clamping the antenna to the 1" EMT conduit. Two of these will be needed. These can be loosely assembled and then attached to the top of the 1" EMT conduit once the DLSO8N is positioned where desired. (2) 1/4"-20 x 2" fully threaded hex head screws, (4) 1/4" stainless washers, and (2) 1/2"-20 nylon insert lock nuts are required (see parts list below).The parts will need to be correctly oriented in the slicer after importing. Dragino_Clamp.stl needs to be rotated 180 degrees in the X or Y axis so the curved channel is facing upwards. Dragino_Antenna_Clamp.stl needs to be rotated 90 degrees in the Y axis so the curved channels are facing upwards. Two of the antenna clamps are required.Set the infill to 25% gyroid, and the vertical shell perimeters to a minimum of 6. Enabling supports is not required, but will give a cleaner seat in the hole for the M4 cap head screws. I used Prusament Signal White PETG to match the DLSO8N, but anything that weathers reasonably well outdoors could be used.You might wonder why some parts are metric and some are imperial. Basically, I had the stainless 1/4"-20 hardware already in stock. You could use M6 hardware, although the fit will be loose. The Fusion 360 file is provided if you prefer to customize it.Parts list from McMaster Carr:(4) M4 heat inserts 94459A170(4) M4x25 stainless steel cap head screws 91292A122(2) 1/4"-20 stainless steel hex head screws 92240A550(4) 1/4" stainless steel flat washers 92141A029(2) 1/4"-20 stainless steel nylon insert locknuts 91831A029Print SettingsPrinter Brand:BambulabsPrinter: Bambu X1CRafts:NoSupports: YesResolution:0.12mm ideal, 0.2mm worksInfill: 25% GyroidFilament: Prusament PETG Signal White Notes: Supports are not required, but if enabled will give a better seat for the M4 cap head screws.   Category: Electronics
