2.1 Safety Precautions
Note
To prevent device damage and physical injury, please read the safety precautions
carefully in this chapter.
The following safety precautions do not cover all possible hazardous situations.
2.1.1 Installation Safety
Do not expose the AP to high temperature, dust, or harmful gases.
Do not install the AP in an area prone to fire or explosions.
Keep the AP away from EMI sources such as large radar stations, radio stations, and
substations.
Do not subject the AP to unstable voltage, vibration, and noises.
The installation site should be dry. Keep the AP at least 500 m (1640.42 ft.) away from the
ocean and do not face it towards the sea breeze.
The installation site should be free from water including possible flooding, seepage,
dripping, or condensation. The installation site should be selected according to network
planning and communications equipment features, and considerations such as climate,
hydrology, geology, earthquake, electrical power, and transportation.
Caution
Follow the installation instructions described in the guide correctly to install or remove the AP.
2.1.2 Handling Safety
Do not move the installed AP frequently.
Turn off all power supplies and unplug all power cables before you remove the AP.
2.1.3 Electrical Safety
Warning
Any non-standard and inaccurate electrical operation can cause an accident such as fire
or electric shock, thus causing severe even fatal damages to humans and devices.
