2.1.1 Safety Requirements
To prevent damage to the product and ensure your personal
safety, operate the Mesh Point only within the operating
specifications given in Section 4.1.2, and carefully follow these
guidelines:
 General: This equipment must be installed by qualified
service personnel according to the applicable installation
codes. Do not locate the Mesh Point or antennas near
power lines or power circuits. When installing an external
antenna, take extreme care not to come into contact with
such circuits as they can cause serious injury or death.
Avoid metal ladders wherever possible. For proper
installation and grounding, refer to national and/or local
codes (WSNFPA 70 or, Canadian Electrical Code 54).
 Indoor/Outdoor Siting: All interconnected equipment
connected to the Mesh Point must be contained within the
same building, including the interconnected equipment's
associated LAN connections.
 Ambient Temperature: The temperature of the environment
in which the Mesh Point operates should not exceed the
maximum (158º F/70º C) or drop below the minimum (-40º
F/-40º C) operating temperatures.
 Circuit Overloading: The ES2440 version Mesh Point
includes an internal 48V resettable fuse.
 Powering: The Mesh Point can be direct powered by
10–30 VDC or by 802.3at POE+ (Power over Ethernet
Plus). The ES2440 will work with any active 802.3at or
passive 60W midspan device, but will not be able to
interoperate directly to 25W endspan switches without the
use of a midspan power injector.
