Bridge Link Planning

Ethernet Cabling

When a suitable antenna location has been determined, you must
plan a cable route form the wireless bridge outdoors to the power
injector module indoors. Consider these points:
The Ethernet cable length should never be longer than 100 m
(328 ft)
Determine a building entry point for the cable
Determine if conduits, bracing, or other structures are
required for safety or protection of the cable
For lightning protection at the power injector end of the cable,
consider using a lightning arrestor immediately before the
cable enters the building

Grounding

It is important that the wireless bridge, cables, and any
supporting structures are properly grounded. The wireless bridge
unit includes a grounding screw for attaching a ground wire. Be
sure that grounding is available and that it meets local and
national electrical codes.
