Lightweight Access Points

Industry Canada Required User Information for Cisco Aironet 1000 Series Lightweight Access Points
This device has been designed to operate with antennae having maximum gains of 7.8 dBi (2.4 GHz) and
7.4 dBi (5 GHz).
Antennae having higher gains is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The required
antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen
that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required for successful
communication.

Safety Considerations

AP1010 Cisco Aironet 1000 Series IEEE 802.11a/b/g Lightweight Access Points with Internal Antennas - Quick Start Guide
78-17146-01
France - The frequency band 5470-5750 MHz is not allowed.
Portugal - Integral antenna is required.
Switzerland - The frequency band 5470-5750 MHz is not allowed.
Czech - The frequency band 5470-5750 MHz is not allowed.
Slovak Republic - The frequency band 5470-5750 MHz is not allowed.
The AP1010, AP1020, and AP1030 Cisco Aironet 1000 Series IEEE 802.11a/b/g lightweight access
points with or without external antenna ports are only intended for installation in Environment A as
defined in IEEE 802.3af. All interconnected equipment must be contained within the same building
including the interconnected equipment's associated LAN connections.
For AP1020 and AP1020 Cisco Aironet 1000 Series IEEE 802.11a/b/g lightweight access points
provided with optional external antenna ports, be sure that all external antennas and their associated
wiring are located entirely indoors. The Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g lightweight access
points and their optional external antennas are not suitable for outdoor use.
BE SURE that plenum-mounted Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g lightweight access points
are powered using PoE to comply with safety regulations.
Suitable for use in environmental air space in accordance with Section 300.22.C of the National
Electrical Code, and Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100 of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1,
C22.1.
When used below dropped ceiling use a UL Listed ITE power adapter (QQGQ) marked LPS or a
Listed Direct Plug-in Adapter (EPBU) marked Class 2 with output rated 48 V, 0.4 A.
