Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Bridge Hardware Installation Guide
OL-5048-01
Chapter 2 Installation Overview
Installation Summary
Note You should securely tighten the cable connectors (15 to 20 inch-pounds) using a small wrench.
• Connect a ground wire to the grounding block.
• Mount the bridge to the external tower or mast. For additional information, refer to the Cisco Aironet
1300 Series Wireless Bridge Mounting Instructions that shipped with your bridge.
Warning
This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the
absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection
authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available.
• Connect a ground wire to the bridge (use the bridge ground lug).
• 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 dual-coax ports. The bridge senses the Ethernet signals and automatically switches
internal circuitry to match the cable connections.
Note You should securely tighten the cable connectors (15 to 20 inch-pounds) using a small wrench.
Warning
This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that
the protective device is rated not greater than:
120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A International)
• Connect the AC power cord to the 48-VDC power module.
• 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 1300 Series Wireless
Bridge Mounting Instructions that shipped with your bridge.
• Configure basic settings (refer to Chapter 5, “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 IOS Software
