Step 3 Connect an Ethernet cable from the injector’s OUT port to the radio node. The injector will
now inject power onto a pair of wire pairs in the cable. The radio node will expect a
nominal 48V DC input (57V max) from a typical PoE+ injector.
Select the Radio Node Location
Radio nodes can be installed in a wide range of locations including walls, ceilings, and plenum spaces.
Follow the installation guidelines for selecting appropriate mounting locations for the unit. When mounting
a radio node vertically, align the bottom-side fins vertically for superior cooling.
Figure 8 Radio Node Locations
When possible, locate radio node units at least 5 meters (16 feet) from an external wall. This distance
maximizes indoor coverage and minimizes RF leakage outside the building. When mounting near a wall or
other obstruction, orient the mounting bracket such that the transmit antenna faces towards the coverage
area and faces away from the wall. Refer to Bracket Mounting and Cabling Guidelines on page 13 for
more information.
