Step 5
Insert the unterminated end of the Ethernet cable through the sealing nut end of the cable gland (see
Figure 2-32), and pull several inches of cable through the adapter.
Step 6 Install an RJ-45 connector on the unterminated end of the Ethernet cable using your Ethernet cable
installation tool.

When installing the RJ-45 connector, ensure that cable gland and the rubber gasket are present and
installed properly, to avoid water leakage into the enclosure. See Figure 2-32 and Figure 2-33.
Step 7 Carefully insert the RJ-45 cable connector into the Ethernet port opening on the access point, and
connect to the internal Ethernet connector (see Figure 2-33).
