Hardware Installation and Reference Guide
of accidents.
Check the access point carefully for confirmation before shutting down the power supply.
Do not place the device in a damp/wet location. Do not let any liquid enter the chassis.
Keep the access point far away from grounding or lightning protection devices for power equipment.
Keep the access point away from radio stations, radar stations, high-frequency high-current devices, and
microwave ovens.
2.1.4
Storage Security
For proper working of the access point, the access point must be stored in an environment based on the
storage temperature/humidity requirements in Specifications.
Caution
If the access point is stored for more than 18 months, power on the access point and run it for consecutive 24
hours to activate the access point.
2.2
Installation Environment Requirements
Use the access point indoors to ensure normal operation and a prolonged service life. The installation site must
meet the following requirements.
2.2.1
Bearing Requirements
ensure that the ground of the installation site meets the requirements.
2.2.2
Ventilation Requirements
Reserve sufficient space in front of the air vents to ensure normal heat dissipation. After various cables are
connected, bundle the cables or place them in the cable management bracket to avoid blocking air inlets.
2.2.3
Space Requirements
Maintain a minimum clearance of 0.4 m (15.75 in.) around the device to ensure proper cooling and ventilation.
2.2.4
Temperature/Humidity Requirements
To ensure normal operation and a prolonged service life of the access point, maintain an appropriate
temperature and humidity in the installation environment.
The installation environment with too high or too low temperature and humidity for a long period of time may
damage the access point.
In an environment with high relative humidity, the insulating material may have bad insulation or even leak
electricity.
In an environment with low relative humidity, the insulating strip may dry and shrink, loosening screws.
In a dry environment, static electricity is prone to occur and damage the internal circuits of the access point.
Too high temperatures can accelerate the aging of insulation materials, greatly reducing the reliability of the
access point and severely affecting its service life.
