Choosing a Site for the Wireless Access Point
Observe these requirements when planning the installation of the wireless
access point:

The ceiling or wall mounting surface should be of proper material to
accommodate the screws and strong enough to support the weight
of the wireless access point and cables. (Refer to Table 2 on
page 69 for product weight.)

Verify that the Ethernet cable is long enough to connect to its
destination port.

If the wireless access point will be powered by an AC/DC adapter,
verify that an AC power outlet is within six feet of the planned
installation site.

The site should allow for easy access to the Ethernet port on the
device, so that you can easily connect and disconnect the cable.

The site should allow for adequate air flow around the unit and
through the cooling vents on the bottom panel.

The site should not expose the device to moisture or water.

The site should be a dust-free environment.

The site should not expose the twisted pair cabling to sources of
electrical noise, such as radio transmitters, broadband amplifiers,
power lines, electric motors, and fluorescent fixtures.

Do not place objects on top of the device.

If installing the device in a wiring or utility box, verify that there is
adequate airflow to prevent overheating.
