NOTE

Actually, APs use shielded straight-through network cables, which are connected in the same way

as unshielded network cables.

3. Put the network cable through waterproof PG connectors. Connect the RJ45 connector to

the ETH/PoE interface on the AP and secure the waterproof PG connector. See figures b,

c, and d.

Figure 2-11 Connecting network cables

NOTE

l The network cables used are shielded straight-through cables.

l Ensure that the RJ45 connector is correctly connected to the AP. Otherwise, the network cable

may be damaged. Before removing the network cable from the AP, remove the waterproof PG

connector first and then remove the RJ45 connector.

l The cable cannot exceed 100 meters.

2.6.3 Connecting Ground Cables

Grounding is a key step in device installation. The ground cable of a device must be correctly

connected to protect the device from lightning, electromagnetic interference, and electrostatic

charges. Outdoor APs support built-in surge protection on all interfaces, but the surge protection

works only when the outdoor APs are grounded.
