Installing the Ethernet Port Arrester
During the access point usage, the Ethernet port arrester shall be connected to the access point to prevent the access
point damage by lightning before the outdoor network cable connects to the access point.
Tools: Cross or straight screwdriver, Multimeter, Diagonal pliers
Installation Steps:
1. Tear one side of the protection paper for the double-sided adhesive tape and paste the tape to the framework of the
Ethernet port arrester. Tear the other side of the protection paper for the double-sided adhesive tape and paste the
Ethernet port arrester to the access point framework. The paste location for the Ethernet port arrester shall be as
close to the grounding terminal of the access point.
Based on the distance of the access point grounding terminal, cut the grounding line for the Ethernet port arrester and
firmly tighten the grounding line to the grounding terminal of the access point.
Use the multimeter to check whether the grounding line for the arrester is in good contact with the access point grounding
terminal and the framework.
According to the description on the Ethernet Port Arrester Hardware Installation Guide, connect the arrester using the
adapter cable(note that the external network cable is connected to the end of IN, while the adapter cable connected to the
access point is connected to the end of OUT) and observe whether the LED on the board is normal or not.
Use the nylon button to bundle the power cables.
