Safety Precautions

Caution
To avoid personal injury and device damage, carefully read the safety precautions before you install the AP.
The following safety precautions may not cover all possible dangers.
2.1.1 General Safety Precautions

Do not expose the AP to high temperature, dusts, or harmful gases. Do not install the AP in an inflammable
or explosive environment. Keep the AP away from EMI sources such as large radar stations, radio stations,
and substations. Do not subject the AP to unstable voltage, vibration, and noises.

Keep the site where the AP is installed dry, so it is not recommended to install the AP near the ocean. Keep
the AP at least 500 meters away from the ocean and do not face it towards the sea breeze.

The installation site should be free from water flooding, seepage, dripping, or condensation. The installation
site should be selected according to network planning, communications equipment features, and
considerations such as climate, hydrology, geology, earthquake, electrical power, and transportation.
Caution
Install and remove the AP properly by following instructions in the installation guide.
2.1.2 Handling Safety
Pay attention to the following points when moving the AP:

Do not frequently move the AP after the AP is installed.

Cut off all the power supplies and unplug all power cords before moving or handling the AP.
2.1.3 Electric Safety

Observe local regulations and specifications during electric operations. Only personnel with relevant
qualifications can perform such operations.

Check whether there are potential risks in the work area. For example, check whether the power supply is
grounded, whether the grounding is reliable, and whether the ground is wet.

Find the position of the indoor emergency power switch before installation. Cut off the power switch in case
of accidents.

Confirm the preceding items when you cut off the power supply.

Do not place the device in a wet position, and keep the device away from liquid.

Keep the AP far away from grounding or lightning protection devices for power equipment.
