Use the built-in antenna (for the AP61). For the OmniAccess AP60, use
OmniAccess AP-ANT-1. For all other antennas, make sure the antenna cable is
UL listed and suitable for use in plenums and air-handling spaces, such as
CL2-P , CL3-P , MPP , or CMP , and mount the antenna outside of the air-handling
space.
Install cables in accordance with all applicable local and national regulations
and practices.

ing:
A
To a network port on the Wireless LAN Switch, or
B
To a network hub, router, or switch that has a routable path to the Wireless LAN

3 Connect power, if necessary.
The OmniAccess AP60/61 can receive electrical power using the following
options:
POE
If connecting the OmniAccess AP60/61 to a device that supplies IEEE 802.3af
