Determining the installation position
You can mount the AP to a wall or ceiling. Determine the installation position by observing the following
principles:
•
Few obstacles such as wall and ceiling exist between AP and clients.
•
The AP is far away from electronic devices (such as microwave oven) that may generate radio
frequency (RF) noise.
•
The AP does not hinder people’s daily work and life.
•
The place is not water seeping, water soaking, and condensing.
•
A lightning arrester (user supplied) is installed on the AP for cabling outdoors.
•
The ceiling for installing the AP must be less than 18 mm (0.71 in) in thickness, and can bear a load
of 5 kg (11.02 lb). H3C recommends that you reinforce the ceiling by using boards if the ceiling is
not strong enough.
