antenna connections from the cell and apply two drops of Loctite Threadlocker 242 to the
antenna connector thread.
9. Install the antenna or antenna cables.
Connecting Power and LAN
The LAN port on your Tropos 3210 Wi-Fi cell is not compatible with the IEEE 802.3af
standard. If you plan to use Power over Ethernet (PoE) to power the cell, an external PoE splitter
device is required (see the next figure).
Note
When the Tropos 3210 Wi-Fi cell is installed in a plenum or air-handling space, the cables
employed should be suitable under NEC article 800-50 and NFPA 262 and marked
accordingly, for use in plenums and air-handling spaces with regard to smoke propagation,
such as CL2-P, CL3-P, MPP or CMP.
