Ethernet Installation
The RangeLAN2 Access Point is attached to the wired LAN backbone via an Ethernet
cable. Two types of Ethernet connection are supported: 10BaseT and 10Base2.
10BaseT Cabling
The RangeLAN2 Access Point 10BaseT cable is typically connected between the
device and a 10BaseT hub or wiring rack. It will use the same cable that would other-
wise be plugged into a 10BaseT workstation on the Ethernet LAN. If you are using a
functional cable, the LED nearest the connector will light. Standard 10BaseT specifica-
tions apply to the 10BaseT interface of the RangeLAN2 Access Point. No segment can
exceed 100 meters.
10Base2 Cabling
When using 10Base2 cabling with the RangeLAN2 Access Point, the cable must be
properly terminated on each end. Standard 10Base2 specifications apply to the 10Base2
interface of the RangeLAN2 Access Point. Each coax cable segment can support up to
30 devices and the cable itself cannot exceed 185 meters.
Antenna Options
The RangeLAN2 Access Point is shipped with a standard directly-connected antenna.
To install the antenna, screw it clockwise onto the antenna connector. Proxim sells
several antenna alternatives including higher gain and directional antennas. Each of
these antennas ships with installation and mounting instructions. For information on
additional antenna options, please contact your Proxim Sales Representative.
Mounting Options
The RangeLAN2 Access Point may be placed on a desktop or mounted to a wall. An
optional mounting hardware bracket is available for purchase in order to attach the unit
to a cubicle or a wall. Figure 3 and Figure 4, below, display these different mounting
options.
