Connecting the Cables
Pluggable Transceivers
The WS-AP3767e provides two SFP ports for LAN connections. For information about the
industrial grade SFP pluggable transceivers supported on the WS-AP3767e, see
page 1-3 and the datasheet at http://www.enterasys.com/products/transceivers-ds.pdf.
Connecting the Cables
This section contains the following subsections about connecting cables:
•
Connecting a 24V DC Cable to the WS-AP3765 and WS-AP3767e
•
Fitting a Power Supply Adapter
•
Connecting an Ethernet Cable to the WS-AP3765
•
Connecting External Antenna Cables to the WS-AP3765e and WS-AP3767e
•
Using Strain Relief Clamps on Cable Connections
Connecting a 24V DC Cable to the WS-AP3765 and WS-AP3767e
Possible Power Supplies
The following user-supplied power supplies are suitable for the WS-AP3765 and WS-AP3767e:
•
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
If an eight-wire Ethernet cable is used, it is possible to supply power over the four wires that
are not used as the data lines. As an alternative the voltage can be modulated onto the data
lines ("phantom power").
If Fast-Connect Ethernet connectors are used to allow assembly in the field, only four-wire
cables can be used. In this case, only phantom power is possible. This does not represent a
restriction for the user since PoE-compatible power supply equipment must always provide
both options.
•
24V DC direct voltage
Use the two-pin connector supplied with the WS-AP3765 / WS-AP3767e.
•
100 - 240V AC alternating voltage
Requires the optional power supply adapter WS-PS376X-MR, ordered from Enterasys.
3-6 Connecting Cables to the Outdoor Access Points
Warning: If the housing is not perfectly sealed and the WS-AP3765 or WS-AP3767e is subjected
to spray water or dampness, you will endanger your life. Ensure that you adhere to the following
safety rules.
• Before connecting up, turn off the power supply.
• The sealing of the cable feedthroughs of the WS-AP3765 / WS-AP3767e is assured only when
the cable has a suitable diameter and adequate tensile strength. Use cables that meet the
specifications as mentioned in
page 3-4.
• Never wrap insulating tape, adhesive tape or other materials around thinner cables to achieve
the required diameter. In this case, neither the housing seal nor the strain relief clamps can fulfill
their function.
• Close all unused openings in the housing seal with the sealing plugs supplied with the
WS-AP3765 and WS-AP3767e. Do not use fillers or any other material under any
circumstances.
