HP PS110 Wireless VPN Router Quickstart 3 Important information to read before installing
Important information to read before installing
Warning: This device is intended for indoor installation only. Before
installing or using the PS110, ensure that you read and understand all safety
information and regulatory requirements, particularly those relevant to your
region. Failure to follow this guidance could result in a non-compliant
situation.
Cabling: You must use supported Cat 5e (or better) cables, and where
applicable for your region, surge protection.
Country of use: During setup, you are prompted to select the country of use.
After the country has been set, the PS110 automatically limits the available
wireless channels, ensuring compliant operation in the selected country.
Entering the incorrect country can result in illegal operation and can cause
harmful interference to other systems.
Safety: Consider the following safety information during installation.
• If your network covers an area served by more than one power distribution
system, make sure all safety grounds are securely interconnected.
• Network cables can occasionally be subject to hazardous transient voltages
(caused by lightning or disturbances in the electrical power grid).
• Handle exposed metal components of the network with caution.
• The PS110 is powered on when connected to an AC power source using its
AC/DC power adapter and the power button is pushed in.
Installation
The PS110 is designed for stacking on top of an HP ProLiant MicroServer Gen 8
Server. It can also be placed on a desktop or be mounted on a wall.
Stacking on MicroServer Gen 8 servers or placing on a desktop
Before placing the PS110 on top of a MicroServer stack or a desktop, attach the
included four rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the PS110.
Caution: To achieve maximum wireless coverage, the PS110 must be
placed on the very top of the stack of all MicroServer devices. For example,
if you have an HP PS1810-8G switch on top of the MicroServer, the PS110
must be placed on top of the switch.
Mounting on a wall
When mounting the PS110 on a wall, ensure that the surface to which you
attach the PS110 and the fasteners you use can support at least 0.9 kg (2 lb).
Allow extra weight for cables. When mounting on a wall, HP highly
recommends that you use the included mounting screws and wall anchors.
There are two slots on the bottom of the PS110 that can be used for wall
mounting. If you are mounting the PS110 on a wall, do not attach the rubber
feet.
1. On the wall where the PS110 will be installed, mark two holes for the
screws (wall anchors) 176 mm (6.93 inch) apart.
Note: The wall anchors are not needed when mounting on wooden walls.
2. Drill two holes for the wall anchors, typically 4.7 mm (3/16 inch) in
diameter, and then insert the anchors and tap them flush with the wall
surface.
3. Insert the mounting screws into the wall anchors, leaving their heads
3 mm (0.12 inch) clear of the wall surface.
4. With the network ports facing up or down, position the PS110 mounting
slots over the screw heads, and then slide the PS110 down onto the
screws. Do not let go of the PS110 until you confirm that it is securely in
place.
