Cisco Cisco Aironet 1310 Access Point Bridge Guía De Instalación

To route and connect cables, follow these steps:

Unspool two 75-ohm cables the full length from the access point to the grounding block, laying them 
out straight without kinks. Do not cut the cables until you know the total required length between access 
point and grounding block.

Install F-connectors on the access point end of each cable and connect the cables to the access point. The 
cables should slope downward from the access point connectors (when the mast is raised) so that 
moisture runs away from the access point during rainstorms. If necessary, form drip loops near the 
connector.

Secure the cables to the mast using UV-stabilized Ty-Wraps or equivalent fasteners.

Weather seal all coaxial connectors by wrapping them with the sealant tape provided with the installation 
kit. For more information, see the 

.

To raise the mast and connect cables, follow these steps:

Tilt the mast assembly to the upright position, set the mast in its mounting base clamp, orient the antenna 
in the direction of the remote antenna, and secure the guy wires.

Tighten the mast clamp so the mast is secure but so that it can be rotated for final adjustments in 
positioning.

This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the 
equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate 
electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding 
is available. Statement 1024

To ensure correct installation and grounding, install the access point in compliance with your 
local and national electrical codes: National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 70, National 
Electrical Code (U.S.); Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA 22.1 (Canada); and if local or 
national electrical codes are not available, refer to IEC 364, Part I through Part 7 (other 
countries).

Find the building's grounding electrode system and then connect the mast to it using 6 AWG copper wire. 
For more information about attaching the ground lug to the access point, see 

 and 

 in the 

 for the ground 

lug location.

Dress the cables along the path from the mast to the grounding block. Secure the cables as you go using 
UV-stabilized Ty-Wraps or equivalent fasteners.
