Installation Notes
Note
Each time an access point is relocated, the MAC address of the new switch port will fail
to match the remembered MAC address, and the access point will remain in low-power
mode. You must then physically verify the existence of a power injector and reselect this
option to cause the new MAC address to be remembered.

–
Override—This option allows the access point to operate in high-power mode without first
verifying a matching MAC address. It is acceptable to use this option if your network does not
contain any older Cisco 6-Watt switches that could be overloaded if connected directly to a
12-Watt access point. The advantage of this option is that if you relocate the access point, it
continues to operate in high-power mode without any further configuration. The disadvantage
of this option is that if the access point is connected directly to a 6-Watt switch, an overload will
occur.

Foreign—This option causes the Injector Switch MAC Address parameter to appear. The
Injector Switch MAC Address parameter allows the remembered MAC address to be modified
by hand. Choose this option if you know the MAC address of the connected switch port and do
not wish to automatically detect it using the Installed option.

Warning
Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.
Warning
Do not locate any antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or
where it can come into contact with such circuits. When installing antennas, take extreme care not
to come in contact with such circuits, as they may cause serious injury or death. For proper
installation and grounding of the antenna, refer to national and local codes (e.g. U.S.: NFPA70,
National Electrical Code, Article 810, in Canada: Canadian Electrical Code, Section 54).
