•
The OAW-GSX and OAW-GSX2 Network Adapter Modules and OAW-4102 Alcatel OmniAccess
WLAN Appliances contain Class 1 Lasers (Laser Klasse 1) according to EN 60825-1+A1+A2.
•
Model 4012 and 4024 PoE Alcatel OmniAccess WLAN Switches are only intended for installation
in Environment A (same-building deployment) as defined in IEEE 802.3af. All interconnected
equipment must be contained within the same building including the interconnected
equipment's associated LAN connections.
•
The 1200 OmniAccess AP Access Points with or without external antenna ports are only
intended for installation in Environment A as defined in IEEE 802.3af. All interconnected
equipment must be contained within the same building including the interconnected
equipment's associated LAN connections.
•
For OAW-1200ABGE, OAW-1200BGE, and OAW-1200ABGR OmniAccess AP Access Points and
Alcatel OmniAccess Remote Edge Access Points (OmniAccess 1200R APs) provided with
optional external antenna ports, make sure that all external antennas and their associated
wiring are located entirely indoors. OmniAccess AP Access Points and OmniAccess 1200R APs
and their optional external antennas are not suitable for outdoor use.
•
MAKE SURE that plenum-mounted OmniAccess AP Access Points and OmniAccess 1200R APs
are powered using Power Over Ethernet (POE) to comply with safety regulations.
•
For 40XX Alcatel OmniAccess WLAN Switches and 4102 Alcatel OmniAccess WPS Appliances,
verify that the ambient temperature remains between 0 to 40° C (32 to 104° F), taking into
account the elevated temperatures when installed in a rack.
•
When multiple Alcatel OmniAccess WLAN Switches and Appliances are mounted in an
equipment rack, be sure that the power source is sufficiently rated to safety run all of the
equipment in the rack.
•
Verify the integrity of the ground before installing the Alcatel OmniAccess WLAN Switches and
Appliances in an equipment rack with other Alcatel OmniAccess WLAN Switches and Appliances.
