When installing the AP in an environment where the ambient temperature
is in the range of 104°and 122°F (>40° and 50°C), the access point
configuration changes from 4x4 on the 5-GHz radios, and the uplink Ethernet
will downgrade to 1 GbE. However, the USB port remains enabled.
We recommend that you use a console cable that is one meter or less in length.
The AP may face issues while booting if you use an unterminated console
cable (not plugged into any device or terminal) or a console cable that is
more than one meter in length.
