Typical Network Topology Internet Router Switch EAP Controller Manangement Host Clients A DHCP server (typically a router) is required to assign IP addresses to the EAPs and clients in your local network. The management host can be in the same or different network segment with the EAPs.
Lightning and ESD Protection Before mounting EAP, you should consider Lightning and ESD Protection to ensure safety. Proper grounding is extremely important for outdoor devices. There are two effective techniques for grounding the outdoor EAP: Option A Use a shielded CAT5e (or above) cable with an integrated grounding wire for connection.
