Important information to read before installing
WARNING!
PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION REQUIRED.
For outdoor or indoor installation. Prior to installing or using the E-MSM466-R, consult with a
professional installer trained in RF installation and knowledgeable in local regulations including
building and wiring codes, safety, channel, power, outdoor/indoor restrictions, and license
requirements for the intended country. It is the responsibility of the end user to ensure that installation
and use complies with local safety and radio regulations.
Surge protection and grounding:
When connecting antennas installed outdoors to the E-MSM466-R,
make sure that proper lightning surge protection and grounding precautions are taken according
to local electrical code. Failure to do so may result in personal injury, fire, equipment damage, or
a voided warranty. The HP hardware warranty provides no protection against damage caused
by static discharge or a lightning strike. Lightening Arresters (not supplied) are available from HP
(J8996A). One arrester is required for each antenna connector (6).
Cabling:
You must use the appropriate cables, and where applicable, surge protection, for your
given region. Cat 5e (or better) cabling is required.
Country of use:
In some regions, you are prompted to select the country of use during setup. After
the country has been set, the E-MSM466-R will automatically limit the available wireless channels,
ensuring compliant operation in the selected country. Entering the incorrect country may result in
illegal operation and may cause harmful interference to other systems.
Safety:
Take note of the following during installation:
•
If your network covers an area served by more than one power distribution system, make sure
all safety grounds are securely interconnected.
•
Network cables are subject to hazardous transient voltages (caused by lightning or disturbances
in the electrical power grid).
•
Handle exposed metal components of the network with caution.
•
The E-MSM466-R is powered-on when connected to a PoE power source.
