Installing the AP
WARNING!
The AP is large and heavy. Avoid bodily injury and device damage during the installation.
Pre-installation tasks
Before installing an AP, perform the following tasks:
•
Connect the AP to the power source and the network. Examine the LED to verify that the AP
can operate correctly. For more information about the AP LED, see "
•
Verify that cabling at the installation site has been completed.
•
Record the AP MAC address and serial number marked on the rear of the AP for future use.
Before connecting cables to the AP, read the following guidelines carefully:
•
Route cables according to the cabling design.
•
Arrange cables firmly and neatly without crossing, twisting, or cracking them.
•
Do not route cables together with high-voltage electric power pipelines, fire-fighting pipes, or
lightning protection cables to avoid the electromagnetic interference.
•
Use PVC pipes, iron pipes, Plica tube, or cable troughs for cable routing. Route cable pipes
and troughs neatly against the wall and connect them through hoses or pipe joints at the bend.
Secure cable pipes and troughs by using cable ties or angle steels at the spacing of 1 m (3.28
ft) to 1.5 m (4.92 ft) and ground the two ends in the case of metal tubes.
•
When you route PVC pipes outdoors in a horizontal way, cut an opening at the bottom of the
PVC pipes every 6 m (19.69 ft) to avoid water accumulation.
•
Seal the holes for routing cables in the wall with waterproof and flame retardant material.
