Step 7 Continue with What to Do Next, page 2-66.
Connecting an Ethernet Cable to the Access Point
You need to supply these tools and materials:
• Shielded outdoor-rated Ethernet (CAT5e or better) cable with 0.2 to 0.35 in. (0.51 to 0.89 cm)
diameter
• RJ-45 connector and installation tool
• Adjustable Wrench or 28 mm box wrench
• Large Phillips or Flat Blade screwdriver
To connect the shielded Ethernet cable to the access point, follow these steps:
Step 1 Disconnect power to the power injector, and ensure all power sources to the access point are turned off.
Warning
This unit might have more than one power supply connection. All connections must be removed to
de-energize the unit.
Statement 1028
Step 2 Ensure a 6 AWG ground wire is connected to the access point (see the “Grounding the Access Point”
section on page 2-48).
Step 3 Use a large Phillips or Flat Blade screw driver to remove the Ethernet connector plug from the access
point. Do not discard plug and rubber seal unless you are certain that the port will not have to be
re-plugged (see Figure 2-31 for the location).
