1 About this Guide
This guide is designed to familiarize yourself with your Cisco Aironet 1552S Outdoor Mesh Access
Point and prepare it for use in your wireless network. Due to the complexity and number of product
options available, this guide does not provide detailed mounting and configuration instructions. Those
instructions can be found in the following documents:
• Cisco Mesh Networking Solution Deployment Guide
• Cisco Aironet 1550 Series Outdoor Mesh Access Point Hardware Installation Guide
Detailed configuration information can also be found in the Cisco wireless LAN controller
documentation for the controller and software release you are using. These and other documents, such
as the Cisco Aironet 1552S Data Sheet, are available on Cisco.com.
FCC Safety Compliance Statement
The FCC with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to radio
frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified equipment. When used with approved
Cisco Aironet antennas, Cisco Aironet products meet the uncontrolled environmental limits found in
OET-65 and ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper installation of this radio according to the instructions found
in this manual will result in user exposure that is substantially below the FCC recommended limits.
Declaration of Conformity for RF Exposure
This access point product has been found to be compliant to the requirements set forth in CFR 47
Section 1.1307 addressing RF Exposure from radio frequency devices as defined in Evaluating
Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
Use is permitted with antenna gain not exceeding 4 dBi for 802.11 and 14 dBi for the sensor (802.15.4)
radio in the 2.4-GHz band, and 7 dBi in the 5-GHz band, as described in filing, with a minimum
separation distance of 20 cm between the antenna and all persons during normal operation.
Only antennas provided by Cisco for use with the product should be installed. The use of any other
antennas may cause damage to the access points or violate regulatory emission limits and will not be
supported by Cisco.
