Model 510 Sensor: Installation Guide
4.4 Wall Installation Recommendations
If you plan to install a 510 on a partial wall or other vertical surface, orient the top of the access point
(the side with the LEDs) toward the intended coverage area. The radio antennas transmit through the
top of the access point but not through the bottom (where the bracket is). This recommendation does
not apply if you plan to use external antennas. You can orient the antennas independently of the
sensor itself. Orient an external antenna to face the intended coverage area.
4.5 Power over Ethernet (PoE) Requirements
The Model 510 Sensor is designed to receive power only from an 802.3af-compliant source, an
802.3af compliant switch, or an AirDefense-approved power injector. Connecting an access point to
a PoE-device that is not approved by AirDefense can damage the equipment.
4.6 Before You Begin
Please read the following before you begin:
• Do not operate the 510 sensor near unshielded blasting caps or in an otherwise explosive
environment unless the device has been modified for such use by qualified personnel.
• Do not touch or move the 510 sensor when the antennas are transmitting or receiving.
• Do not hold any radio device so that the antenna is very close to or touching the face, eyes,
or other exposed body part while the device's radio antenna is transmitting.
• Before using a wireless device in a hazardous location, consult the local codes, national
codes, and safety directors of the location for usage constraints.
• Do not connect or disconnect cables or otherwise work with the 510 sensor hardware during
periods of lightning activity.
• The 510 sensor is intended for indoor use only. Do not install the device outdoors.
• To reduce the possibility of connection interference caused by dust, clean the CAT 5
connector pins before inserting a cable into the 510 sensor.
