Chapter 2

Installation

This chapter describes how to install a Skyline 802.11a Access Point.

It is the responsibility of the installer and users of the Skyline 802.11a Access Point to

guarantee that the antenna is operated at least 20 centimeters from any person. This

is necessary to insure that the product is operated in accordance with the RF

Guidelines for Human Exposure which have been adopted by the Federal

Communications Commission.

The Skyline 802.11a Access Point operates in the frequency range of 5.15 to 5.35 GHz;

it is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency

range. FCC 15.407(e) requires that the device be used indoors in the frequency range

of 5.15 to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel

Mobile Satellite systems. Therefore the device should be used indoor only for

channels 36, 40, 44 and 48 and when 2X mode is enabled, channels 42 and 5o. High

power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to 5.85

GHz band. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage the

Skyline 802.11a Access Point.
