Hardware Reference Guide 31M OUNTING THE AP170M OUNTING THE AP170When you mount the AP170 you can adjust the orientation to vertical for optimum radio transmission. Forexample, you can mount the AP170 on a non-penetrating roof stand or to a Winegard bracket, often usedfor mounting satellite dishes. The mounting bracket accommodates poles with a 1" to 3.5" (2.5 cm to 8.9 cm)diameter.For unobstructed RF coverage, mount the AP170 in a relatively open area. At a minimum, mount it on a pole,mast, of flat surface so that the antennas have at least a three-foot clearance from any nearby obstructions.After checking that you have all the materials and tools necessary, and familiarizing yourself with the safetyand site hazard warnings, you are ready to mount the unit. You can mount the AP170 on a vertical orhorizontal pole, or attach it to a flat surface. These options are described below. The device and mountingaccessories required for mounting the AP170 are shown in Figure 3.Figure 3 AP170 mounted on a vertical pole with major devices and accessories called outDo not locate the AP170 enclosure near overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits,or where it can come into contact with such circuits. During installation, exercise extreme care not tocome into contact with these circuits, which can cause serious injury or death. For proper installationand grounding of the product, refer to national and local electrical codes: NFPA (National FireProtection Association) 70, National Electrical Code Article 810 (U.S.); Canadian Electrical Code, PartI, CSA 22.1 and Section 54 (Canada); and if local or national electrical codes are not available, referto IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) 364, Part 1 through 7 (other countries).Do not connect or disconnect antennas or cables from the AP170 during periods of lightning activity.For best performance, deploy APs at least 100 feet (30.5 m) apart from each other.The AP170 mountedon a grounded vertical pole.A shielded Ethernet cableprovides both the networkconnection and powerthrough PoE.The AP170 groundwire is connected tothe grounded pole.AP170(AH-AP-170-N-XX)Shielded Ethernet cableN-Type outdoor antennas (4)AH-ACC-170-ANT-KITAH-ACC-170-ANT-2G (2)AH-ACC-170-ANT-5G (2)5 GHz 2 4 GHzGround wire connected togrounded pole5 GHz 2 4 GHz |
