Preparing for installation
WARNING!
Install or remove the AP under the guidance of technical engineers and read this chapter before
installation and operation.
Examining the installation site
Before installation, examine the installation site to make sure the AP will work in a good environment.
Installation site selection
In engineering design, the site must be selected according to the network planning and technical
requirements of the communications equipment, and the considerations such as climate, hydrology,
geology, earthquake, electric power, and transportation.
Keep the AP away from high temperature, dust, harmful gases, inflammables, explosive substances,
electromagnetic interference sources (heavy-duty radars, radio stations, or electrical substations),
unstable voltage, heavy vibration, or loud noise. The installation site must be dry, without any
leakage, dripping, or dew.
Temperature and humidity requirements
Item Specification
Operating temperature
–40°C to +65°C (–40°F to +149°F)
Storage temperature
–40°C to +85°C (–40°F to +185°F)
Operating humidity (noncondensing)
0% to 100%
Storage humidity (noncondensing)
0% to 100%
Power supply
The AP can be powered by a power injector.
You can use an H3C PoE power injector to power the AP. For more information about powering the
AP through the power injector, see "
."
NOTE:
No power injector is shipped with the AP. You need to order one separately.
Grounding and lightning protection
The AP must be reliably grounded. Make sure the grounding conductors are separate and treated
with corrosion protection.
