Ruijie Reyee RG-RAP62 Access Point Installation Guide Preparing for Installation Preparing for Installation Safety Guidelines Note To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, review the safety guidelines in this chapter before you begin the installation. The following safety guidelines may not include all the potentially hazardous situations.
Page 16
Ruijie Reyee RG-RAP62 Access Point Installation Guide Preparing for Installation Make sure that the equipment is powered off when you cut off the power supply. Do not place the equipment in a damp/wet location. Do not let any liquid enter the chassis.
Page 17
Ruijie Reyee RG-RAP62 Access Point Installation Guide Preparing for Installation 2.2.5 Cleanliness Requirements Dust poses a major threat to the equipment. The indoor dust takes on a positive or negative static electric charge when falling on the switch, causing poor contact of the metallic joint. Such electrostatic adhesion may occur more easily when the relative humidity is low, not only affecting the service life of the equipment, but also causing communication faults.
Page 18
Ruijie Reyee RG-RAP62 Access Point Installation Guide Preparing for Installation Keep the indoor installation environment clean and free of dust; and Maintain appropriate temperature and humidity conditions. 2.2.7 EMI Requirements Keep the equipment far away from grounding or lightning protection devices for power equipment.

Ruijie Reyee RG-RAP62 Access Point Installation Guide Installing the AP Installing the AP The AP is required to be fixed indoors. Caution Before installing the equipment, ensure that guidelines and requirements in Chapter 2 have been met. Before You Begin Carefully plan and arrange the installation position, networking mode, power supply, and cabling before installation.

Ruijie Reyee RG-RAP62 Access Point Installation Guide Installing the AP Installing the AP Note For indoor environments, ceiling mounting is preferred because it offers a broader coverage area than wall mounting. This installation guide is for reference only. The actual installation procedure may differ depending on the specific physical product.
