Chapter 2 Installation Overview
Installation Summary
• Connect the dual-coax Ethernet cables to the grounding block and to the bridge.
Tip You can connect the dual coax cable connectors to either of the grounding block connectors or
the bridge’s Ethernet ports. The bridge senses the Ethernet signals and automatically switches
internal circuitry to match the cable connections.
• Connect the AC power cord to the 48 VDC power module.
Tip The root bridge should be positioned and powered up before the non-root bridge.
• Connect the power module to the power injector and plug the AC cord into an AC power receptacle.
• Align the bridge antenna. For additional information, refer to the Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless
Bridge Mounting Instructions that shipped with your bridge.
• Configure basic settings (refer to Chapter 4, “Configuring the Bridge for the First Time”).
• Seal all external connectors with special weather sealing material.
• Configure security and other bridge options. For additional information, refer to the Cisco Aironet
1400 Series Wireless Bridge Software Configuration Guide.
