8 AP-7622 Access Point
2.2 Precautions
Before installing an AP-7622 Access Point, verify the following:
• Your are using the correctly rated power solution for the AP-7622
.
• Do not to install the AP-7622 in wet or dusty areas.
• Verify the environment has a continuous temperature range between 32° F to 104°
(0-40°C).
• This product is intended for indoor use only.
2.3 Access Point Placement
For optimal performance, install the Access Point away from transformers, heavy-duty motors,
fluorescent lights, microwave ovens, refrigerators and other industrial equipment. Signal loss
can occur when metal, concrete, walls or floors block transmission. Install the Access Point in
an open area or add Access Points as needed to improve coverage.
Antenna coverage is analogous to lighting. Users might find an area lit from far away to be not
bright enough. An area lit sharply might minimize coverage and create dark areas. Uniform
antenna placement in an area (like even placement of a light bulb) provides even, efficient
coverage.
Install the Access Point at an ideal height of 10 feet from the ground.
To maximize the Access Point’s radio coverage area, recommends conducting a site survey
to define and document radio interference obstacles before installing the Access Point.
2.4 Power Injector System
An AP-7622 Access Point can receive power via an Ethernet cable connected to the GE1/POE
(LAN) port.
When users purchase a WLAN solution, they often need to place Access Points in obscure
locations. In the past, a dedicated power source was required for each Access Point in addition
to the Ethernet infrastructure. This often required an electrical contractor to install power drops
at each Access Point location. The Power Injector merges power and Ethernet into one cable,
