Placement of the WavePOINT-II Hardware
2
The WavePOINT-II hardware of your WaveACCESS Office Router
device is designed for indoor mounting and operation. The ideal
location to install your WavePOINT-II unit must satisfy the following
requirements:
■
The location provides a connection to a grounding type AC
wall outlet (100-240 VAC), using the standard power cord as
supplied with the unit.
The ground of the AC wall outlet must be connected to the
same grounding system as the WaveACCESS Surge Arrester
and antenna mast (see “Grounding System” on page 2-15).
■
The location must allow for easily disconnecting the
WavePOINT-II unit from the AC wall outlet.
■
The location provides a connection to the network backbone
that may either be:
■
An Ethernet LAN cable that connects it to a hub, bridge or
directly into a patch panel
■
A WaveACCESS wireless connection via a second
WaveACCESS card that is inserted into the other PC Card
slot of the WavePOINT-II device.
■
The location is as close as possible to the point where the
antenna cable will enter the building (see also “Placement of
the Surge Arrester” on page 2-8).
!
CAUTION:
The WaveACCESS Office Router is designed for indoor
installations. At all times the location of the WavePOINT-II
unit must be indoors, to protect the unit from extreme
weather conditions, excessive heat and humidity and to
keep the unit free from vibration and dust.
