Step 1: Connecting and Sealing the RJ45 Cables

The Q910 may use one or two RJ-45 cables, one for Ethernet and Power
(PoE IN), and another when the Q910 is optionally supplying Ethernet out
to a peripheral device, such as a small camera or blackhaul radio. Connect
and seal the RJ-45 cables using the M25 data cable glands as shown in
Figure 3.
WARNING! Do not use any PoE Injector that is not tested and approved
by Ruckus Wireless to power the Q910 Access Point.
WARNING! Do not plug PoE IN power into the Ethernet OUT port. See
Figure 2.
WARNING! If using a PoE switch to supply power to the Q910, 30W
MUST be reserved for the Q910 on the switch. Failure to ensure a 30W
supply may result in unpredictable operation of the access point.
