12. If the AP 7181 you are mounting is a Mesh Point Root node or a Mesh Point node
with an external device (e.g. surveillance camera) perform the required Ethernet
cabling.
The Ethernet cable gland is optimized for cables of diameter .39 to .55 inches. Smaller
diameter cables can achieve a watertight seal if the cable gland is properly tightened during
installation. It is recommended that an Outdoor- UV Rated, shielded cable is used in AP
7181 deployments. Some examples are:
•
Superior Essex 04-001-55
•
Best-Tronics BT-0562
In most cases Ethernet cable will need to be custom cut to length. After preparing the
Ethernet cable and attaching shielded RJ-45 end connectors feed the cable through the cable
gland cap and rubber insert as shown below.
13. Insert the data cable through cable gland (i.e. the cable gland on Gigabit Ethernet
port GE1)
a. Connect the RJ45 Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port.
b. Hand tighten the cap for the cable gland.
