Cisco Aironet Series Power Injector AIR-PWRINJ1500-2= Installation Instructions
Mounting the Power Injector
Note
The AIR-PWRINJ1500-2= Power Injector is not suitable for operation in a building’s environmental air
space and should not be installed in these environments.
Note
Ethernet cable from the switch to the power injector must be a shielded CAT5e or higher Ethernet cable.
The Ethernet cable from the power injector to the access point must be a shielded outdoor-rated CAT5e
or higher Ethernet cable with a 0.20 to 0.35 inch diameter.
Note
To comply with FCC regulations, the length of Ethernet cable connecting the power injector to the access
point cannot be less than 10 ft (3 m).
Note
The PoE-out port on the access point is disabled when using the power injector.
Mounting the Power Injector
Caution
All mounting methods on any wall surface is subject to the acceptance of local jurisdiction.
Caution
When mounting the power injector on a vertical surface such as a wall, do not mount it horizontally. It
must be mounted vertically to comply with safety requirements.
You can mount the power injector to most vertical or horizontal surfaces. The power injector does not
ship with a mounting kit. You must provide the fasteners for the surface on which you intend to mount
the access point.
The power injector has two elongated mounting tabs, one on each end, that you can use to secure it to
the surface. To mount the power injector using these tabs, you will need two fasteners at least 0.62-in
(16 mm) long of the appropriate type for the surface on which you are mounting the power injector on.
To mount the power injector on a horizontal or vertical surface, follow these steps:
Step 1
Use the power injector to mark the positions of the mounting tab holes on the surface where you want to
mount the power injector. Remember that the power injector must not be mounted horizontally.
Note
The procedure may vary depending on what type of surface you are mounting the power injector
on. Also, it may be helpful to refer to
Figure 1 on page 5
.
Step 2
To mount the power injector using an M4 or #6 wall anchor and screw, follow these steps:
a.
Drill a 5/32-in. (0.15-mm) hole at the locations you marked.
b.
Install the wall anchor in the hole.
c.
Insert a fastener into the mounting tab holes. Tighten the screw just enough to keep it secure in the
wall anchor. The fastener must be at least 0.62-in (16 mm) long.
