Bridge Link Planning
3-8
Ethernet Cabling
When a suitable antenna location has been determined, you must
plan a cable route form the wireless bridge outdoors to the power
injector module indoors. Consider these points:
•
The Ethernet cable length should never be longer than 100 m
(328 ft)
•
Determine a building entry point for the cable
•
Determine if conduits, bracing, or other structures are
required for safety or protection of the cable
•
For lightning protection at the power injector end of the cable,
consider using a lightning arrestor immediately before the
cable enters the building
Grounding
It is important that the wireless bridge, cables, and any
supporting structures are properly grounded. The wireless bridge
unit includes a grounding screw for attaching a ground wire. Be
sure that grounding is available and that it meets local and
national electrical codes.
