Staging Considerations
If the Antennas, Access Points, devices and Hotpoint 1500R are staged properly the installation
will be smooth. This section will describe some staging scenarios which will ease overall
installation of Hotpoint 1500R Outdoor Wireless Mesh Router.
•
Pre-assemble antenna, HotPoint 1500R and devices to metal pole and antenna stand and
then connect relocate the entire stand to a roof top. Often many times it is easier to install all
devices to one device such as a pole and then connect the pole to the roof. Often many
times connecting the devices to the pole after it is on the roof top can be difficult and
dangerous.
•
Install the antenna first and then install the HotPoint 1500R enclosure, this will ensure you
have adequate height on the antenna.
•
Install the antenna and wireless devices higher than the 1500R. Having the 1500R at a
location lower than the antenna will provide easy access to the 1500R Outdoor Wireless
Mesh Router. You must use care when having the 1500R away from the antenna; you do not
want to exceed a distance of 60 feet from the 1500R to the antenna.
•
Utilize weatherproofing kits that include non-vulcanized rubber to weatherproof connectors
and antenna.
•
Have earth ground completed prior to installing the 1500R Wireless Mesh Router.
