Information For Professional Installers - Proxim ORiNOCO AP-800-US Safety And Regulatory Manual

1.1.6 Information for Professional Installers

A professional installer can connect up to three external antennas to the AP-800 and six external antennas to AP-8000.
All products using external antennas must be professionally installed, and the transmit power of the system must be adjusted
by the professional installers to ensure that the system EIRP is in compliance with the limit specified by the regulatory
authority of the country of application.
Follow the mounting instructions described in the 'Quick Installation Guide' (supplied with the product package) to connect
the antennas and antenna cable to the device and refer the following sections:
• Adjusting Tx Output Power
• Antenna Types and Maximum Gain
1.1.6.1 Adjusting Tx Output Power
Transmit output power can be reduced by selecting "Enable TX Power Control" on the Configure > Interfaces > Op Mode
screen. Refer to the ORiNOCO® 802.11n Access Points - Software Management Guide, for more information.

1.1.6.2 Antenna Types and Maximum Gain
: Where antenna gain +Tx power are above legal EIRP limit, antenna cable loss (pad) is used to attenuate the EIRP to
below legal limit.
For devices using external antennas, professional installers should select only the antenna types listed in the following table,
with gain not exceeding the listed maximum gain for each type.
