4.4.3 Antenna Installation and Alignment

The XAP-1030 includes a 5dBi omni-directional antenna. To install the antenna,
simply align the connectors and turn it clock-wise until it is fi rmly attached. DO
NOT over tighten.

If the Omni Antenna is leaning, the pattern produced by it will lean as well

NOTE:

Regardless of how the XAP-1030 is mounted, be sure to orient
the antenna vertically as demonstrated in the diagrams above.

4.4.4 Connecting the Ethernet Cable

With the XAP-1030 properly mounted and the Antenna installed, you can now plug
the Ethernet Cable into the RJ-45 connector.

NOTE:

Category-5, super Category-5 or Category-6 unshielded twisted pair

(CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6 UTP) cables should be used. For best results, it
is recommended that CAT5e or CAT6 shielded twisted pair be used
to ensure stable data transmission at highest data rates.

4.4.5 Connecting to the Power Source
