"
Ensure that a power outlet is within 6 feet of the
access point. An uninterruptable power supply is
recommended when the ac power system is not
reliable.
"
Ensure that LAN and ac cables can reach the access
point after you install it. Leave sufficient room
around the access point so you can easily attach and
remove cables.
"
Do not locate an access point with the S-UHF radio
option in a computer room. RF emissions from the
higher speed processors in current-generation
computers may reduce system range.
Mounting the Access Point
You can mount the access point horizontally on a tabletop,
vertically on a wall or post, or on the ceiling.
Horizontal (Tabletop) Mount
1. Remove the mounting bracket from the bottom of the
access point. The bracket is not needed for a tabletop
installation.
2. Set the access point in position. The unit rests
securely on four rubber feet that keep it from slipping
out of place.
3. Make all Ethernet connections. See “Connecting to
Ethernet” on page 3-10.
4. Make all power connections. See “Applying Power” on
page 3-20.
5. Watch the indicator lights to verify that the access
point is working properly. See Section 6, “Indicator
Lights,” for help.
