Cisco Aironet 1552 Series for Hazardous Locations Installation Guide

Chapter 3      Installing the 1552 Series Access Points in Hazardous Locations

Powering the Access Point

Connecting an Ethernet Cable to the Access Point (all models)

Note

Please refer to the Declarations of Conformity and Regulatory Information when the 
AIR-CAP1552H-Q-K9 (POE input configuration only) will be installed in an explosive area in Japan.

The following tools and materials are required:

Shielded outdoor-rated Ethernet (CAT5e or better) cable with 0.2 to 0.35 in. (0.51 to 0.89 cm) 
diameter

Note

The Ethernet cable from the power injector to the access point must be at least 10 ft 
(3.05 m) long. The PoE Out port is disabled when the access point is powered by the power 
injector.

RJ-45 connector and installation tool

Adjustable wrench

To connect the shielded Ethernet cable to the access point, follow these steps:

Step 1

Disconnect power to the power injector, and ensure all power sources to the access point are turned off.

Warning

This unit might have more than one power supply connection. All connections must be removed to 
de-energize the unit. 

Statement 1028

Step 2

Ensure a 6 AWG ground wire is connected to the access point (see the 

“Grounding the Access Point (all 

models)” section on page 3-60

).

Step 3

Use an adjustable wrench, a 22-mm socket, or the Sealcon S-2200-WR wrench to remove the Ethernet 
connector plug from the access point (see 

Figure 3-20

 for the location).
