Preparing for Installation

Note

• To prevent device damage and physical injury, please read carefully the safety recommendations described in this chapter.
• The following safety suggestions do not cover all possible hazardous situations.
• RGRAP6262(G) series AP is a class A product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

2.1 Grounding and Lightning Protection

• Keep the grounding connection within 30 m, and use a 40mm x 4mm or 50mm x 5mm grounding bar of hotdip zinc-coated flat steel sheet.
• When the connection cable between the main grounding conductor and local equipotential earthing terminal board (LEB) on each floor is shorter than 2 meters, use a  stranded copper wire with a sectional area not less than 1.318 mm (16 AWG) for the connection cable.
• Use a shielded network cable if possible, ensure that devices connected to both ends of the shielded network cable are reliably grounded, and make sure that the sheath  of the shielded network cable is also grounded if possible. If no shielded network cable is available, wire the network cable through a steel pipe and bury the steel pipe for  lead-in, and properly ground both ends of the steel pipe.
• No additional lightning protector is required as a high-profile lightning protector is built in the RG-RAP6262(G), and the antenna port and power port support 6kV  lightning protection. If a lightning protector of a higher profile is available, configure the lightning protector optionally. Before the configuration, connect the lightning protector to the ground cable.
• Use a power cable with the PE end to ground the power supply (AC). Ensure that the PE end is properly grounded, with a ground resistance less than 5 ohms. Do not  use a two-wire power cable with only the live (L) wire and naught (N) wire. Do not connect the N wire to the protection ground cable of other communication devices,  and ensure that the L wire and N wire are properly connected.
• Ensure that the ground resistance is less than 5 ohms. In areas with high soil resistivity, reduce the soil resistivity via measures such as spreading resistivity reduction  mixture around the grounding conductor.

2.2 Preparing the Installation Site

• Do not expose the AP to high temperature, dust, or harmful gases.
• Do not install the AP in an area prone to fire or explosions.
• Keep the AP away from EMI sources such as large radar stations, radio stations, and substations.
• Do not subject the AP to unstable voltage, vibration, and noises.
• Keep the AP at least 500 meters away from the ocean and do not face it towards the sea breeze.
• The installation site should be protected from water and flooding, seepage, dripping, or condensation.
• The installation site should be selected according to network planning, communications equipment features and considerations such as climate, hydrology, geology, earthquake, electric power, and transportation.

2.2.1 Temperature and Humidity Requirements
Table 2-1 Temperature and Humidity Requirements

2.2.2 Outdoor Installation
The AP can be installed outdoors and mounted on a wall or a pole.
2.2.3 Waterproof

• Use waterproof caps to seal the unused ports.
• After using the reset button and DC power port, please ensure that the caps are put back.
• The network cable needs to be threaded through the cable gland before connecting to the AP. For details, see Chapter 3 Installation.

2.2.4 EMI
All interference sources (from outside or inside of the device or application system) affect the device by capacitive coupling, inductive coupling, or electromagnetic waves.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) occurs due to electromagnetic radiation or conduction, depending on the transmission path.
Radiation interference occurs when energy (usually radio frequency energy) is emitted from a device and propagated through space to disrupt other devices. The interference  source can be part of disrupted system or a fully electrically isolated unit. Conduction interference occurs when interference is transferred from one unit to another through  cables, which are usually electromagnetic wires or signal cables connected between the source and the device(s) experiencing interference. Conduction interference often  affects the power supply of the device.
It is eliminated by using filters. Radiation interference can influence the path of any signal from the device and is difficult to shield.

• Take effective measures against interference from the power grid.
• Keep the AP far away from the grounding or lightning protection devices for power equipment.
• Keep the AP away from high-power radio stations, radar stations, and high-frequency high-current devices.
• Take electrostatic shielding measures.
