Deploying the Access Point
In this step, you will connect the AP to the network from its mounting location.
Step 1: Connect and Seal the RJ-45 Cable
The AP comes with two sets of RJ-45 waterproof connectors. To complete this step, you
will need one RJ-45 cable (two if you plan to use both the PoE IN and PoE OUT ports) and
the RJ-45 waterproof connector assembly that is supplied with the AP.
1.
Take out one of the two plastic bags containing the RJ-45 waterproof connector
assembly.
2.
Feed the end of the RJ-45 cable through the sealing nut, rubber-O ring, and clamping
ring assembly (in the same order). See
Figure 19
.

3.
Connect the RJ-45 cable to the
PoE IN
port on the AP.
4.
Screw the clamping ring assembly onto the RJ-45 connector.
5.
Push the rubber-O ring into the clamping ring assembly. Make sure that the clamping
ring assembly fully encloses the rubber-O ring.
6.
Push the sealing nut forward and tighten it to seal the assembly.
If you are using both the
PoE IN
and
PoE OUT
ports, assemble the second waterproof
connector by repeating the same procedure.
