H A P T E R Introduction The WS410 is a new category of Wi-Fi Access Point designed from the ground up for metro- Wi-Fi deployments. It is based on six antennas and radios and custom-built ASICs, utilizes Wavion's powerful multi-antenna signal processing technologies, and provides significant performance gains to off-the-shelf 802.11 standards-based Wi-Fi clients.
H A P T E R Installing the Wavion WS-410 Metro Access Point This guide explains how to safely install the Wavion WS-410 Metro Access Point. The following topics are covered in this chapter: Important Safety Instructions on page •...
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. All service must be performed AUTION by qualified personnel. The RJ45 connectors of your Wavion WS-410 may source DC power on AUTION pins 4,5 and 7,8. The IEE 802.3 standards allow for pins 4,5 and 7,8 to be used for Power Over Ethernet.
Preparing for Installation The Wavion WS-410 must be installed by a trained professional, or systems integrator who is familiar with RF planning issues and regulatory limits as defined by the governing body of the country in which the unit will be installed.
• 2W(P+N); 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz. See Chapter 7: Installation Accessories on page details. The WS-410 can be powered by a Wavion Injector connected to Ethernet port B (ETH B). • Chapter 7: Installation Accessories on page for details. Use only a rated power source to connect the AC powered outdoor ARNING system.
Consider the available mounting structures and antenna clearance when choosing a mounting location. The Wavion WS-410 should always be mounted with the top of the unit parallel to the ground, and with the antennas pointing upward and clear of obstruction.
Installing the Wavion WS-410 Metro Access Point Figure 3.1. demonstrates acceptable options for mounting on a streetlight. In both cases the WS-410 is mounted to ensure clearance for the antennas above the height of the streetlight. Antennas clear of any...
Figure 3.2. Using Hose Clamps Mounting on a Pole, or Streetlight The following explains how to mount the Wavion WS-410 on a pole, tower, or streetlight. It is recommended to mount the WS-410 on aluminum or galvanized steel structures. The Wavion WS-410 must be mounted with the top of the unit parallel with the ground and with the antennas pointing upward.
Installing the Wavion WS-410 Metro Access Point Metal or Wood Pole Mounting Figure 3.3 shows the correct way to mount the Wavion WS-410 on an outdoor metal or wood pole. Antennas must be higher than the top of the pole and clear of any obstructions.

The Wavion WS-410 weighs approximately 16 lbs, including all mounting hardware. When the Wavion WS-410 is mounted on a pole, the sail area of the WS-410 is approximately 1 square foot. The Wavion WS-410 can load a pole with a maximum load of 3400 Newton in wind conditions of 165mph.
This chapter describes how to install a backhaul unit with the WS-410. Use the assembly equipment provided with the backhaul unit to install. Wavion does not provide brackets or mounting equipment for the backhaul unit. Make sure the WS-410 is installed in a higher position then the backhaul unit so the antennas are unobstructed.
