Page 7: Preparing For Installation
Preparing for installation WARNING! Install the AP under the guidance of technical engineers and read this chapter carefully before installation. Examining the installation site Examine the installation site before installation to ensure that the AP will work in a good environment. -
Page 8: Grounding And Lightning Protection
Grounding and lightning protection The AP must be reliably grounded. Make sure the grounding points of the grounding conductor of the AP, lightning arresters, PE wire of the power cord, and antenna support are separate from each other, make good contact, and are securely connected and treated with corrosion protection. Ground resistance The ground resistance is typically required to be less than 5 ohms, and less than 10 ohms in an area with less than 20 thunderstorm days a year. -

Page 14: Mounting The Ap On A Wall
Figure2-5 Attaching the AP brackets to the AP Mounting the AP on a wall The following procedure mounts the AP on a wall with the vertical pole mounting arrow on the AP bracket pointing up. To mount the AP on a wall with the horizontal pole mounting arrow on the AP bracket pointing up, adjust the installation direction of the wall/pole bracket accordingly. - Page 15 Figure2-7 Drilling holes in the wall Insert an expansion bolt into each hole, and tap the bolt with a rubber hammer until the expansion sleeve is flush with the wall surface, as shown in Figure2-8. Figure2-8 Hammering an expansion bolt into a hole Fasten the nut on each expansion bolt to expand the expansion sleeve.
- Page 16 Figure2-10 Removing the nut from an expansion bolt Align the installation holes on the wall/pole bracket with the bolts on the wall, and then fasten the nuts and washers on the expansion bolts to secure the wall/pole bracket to the wall.
