This chapter explains how to mount and connect the
OmniAccess AP70.

Mounting the OmniAccess AP70

When provisioning is complete, mount the OmniAccess AP70 at
its intended service location.
The OmniAccess AP70 Access Points with or without external
antennas are intended only for installation in Environment A as
defined in IEEE 802.3.af. All interconnected equipment must be
contained within the same building, including the interconnected
equipment's associated LAN connections. (When using an
external antenna, 5.150 to 5.250 MHz are blocked.)
Select a location as close as possible to the center of the intended
coverage area. If necessary, use the Alcatel RF Plan site survey
tool to determine the optimum locations for your access points
and air monitors.
The service location should be free from obstructions or obvious
sources of interference. Normally, the higher you place an access
point or air monitor, the better its performance.
If external antennas are used, make sure that they and their
associated wiring are located entirely indoors. TheOmniAccess
AP70 and any optional external antennas are not suitable for
outside use.
