I. Connecting the RF cable
The RF cable refers to the cable between the antenna interface and the antenna.
Follow these steps to connect the RF cable:
1) Screw one end of the feeder lightning arrester onto the antenna interface.
2) Connect one end of the RF cable to the feeder lightning arrester and the other end
to the outdoor antenna.
3) Wrap each joint with insulation tape first, and then with waterproof tape.
Note:
z
It is recommended to install a feeder lightning arrester on each antenna interface
and ground it well.
z
A finished RF cable with a fixed length can be shipped with the AP if ordered. If such
an RF cable is not long enough, you should provide a longer RF cable and an
N-type RF connector and prepare the cable at the site.
z
Distinguish the stickiness of the two sides of waterproof tape. Before wrapping a
cable joint, stretch the waterproof tape so that the width is three quarters of the
original one to ensure the tightness.
II. Connecting an Ethernet cable
Caution:
Follow the steps below to connect an Ethernet cable. Otherwise, the AP may get
damaged
1) As shown in Figure 4-13, Figure 4-14, and Figure 4-15, route the waterproof
Ethernet cable from the equipment room to the AP installation location.
