1.4 Power Sources
The AP is powered through Power over Ethernet (PoE). To use a PoE device, make sure it supports the IEEE 802.3af
PoE standard.
Input voltage range: 44-57V
Rated current: 0.25A
When powered through PoE, the AP can be used with Ruijie’s other products supporting 802.3af PoE.
1.5 Cooling Solution
The AP adopts fanless design. Because it is installed in an 86-style faceplate on the wall, to guarantee airflow for proper
ventilation, keep the device uncovered.
2 Preparing for Installation
2.1 Safety Suggestions
RG-AP130(L) must be used inside the room. To ensure normal operation and a prolonged useful life of the equipment, the
installation site must meet the following requirements.
To prevent device damage and bodily injury, please read carefully the safety recommendations described in this chapter.
The recommendations do not cover all possible hazardous situations.
2.2 Installation
Do not expose the AP to high temperature, dusts, or harmful gases.
Do not install the AP in an inflammable or explosive environment.
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.
Keep the installation site dry. Installing the device near sea is not recommended.
Keep the AP at least 500 meters away from the seaside and do not face it toward the wind from the sea.
The installation site should be free from water flooding, seepage, dripping, or condensation.

·
Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Preparing for Installation
The installation site shall be selected according to network planning and features of communications equipment, and
considerations such as climate, hydrology, geology, earthquake, electric power, and transportation.
2.3 Temperature and Humidity
Required temperature and humidity are as follows:
Operating temperature: -10°C ~ 45°C (14°F to 113°F)
Storage temperature: -40°C ~ 70°C (-40°F to 158°F)
Operating humidity: 10%～95% (non-condensing)
2.4 Cleanness
Dust poses a serious threat to device operation. Dust that falls onto the surface of the device can be absorbed onto metal
contact points by static electricity, resulting in poor contact. Electrostatic absorption of dust occurs more easily when the
relative humidity is low, which may shorten the service life of the device and cause communication failures. Table 2-2
shows the maximum concentration and diameter of dust allowed in the equipment room.

Besides, the contents of salts, acids and sulfides in the air are also strictly limited for the equipment room. These
substances can accelerate metal corrosion and the aging of some parts. Table 2-3 describes the limit of some hazardous
gases such as SO2, H2S, NO2and Cl2 in the equipment room.

2.5 EMI Consideration
Various interference sources, from either outside or inside the equipment or application system, affect the system in the
conductive ways such as capacitive coupling, inductive coupling, and electromagnetic radiation. There are two types of
electromagnetic interferences: radiated interference and conducted interference, depending on the type of the
propagation path. When the energy, often RF energy, from a component arrives at a sensitive component via the space,
the energy is known as radiated interference. The interference source can be both a part of the interfered system and a
completely electrically isolated unit. Conducted interference results from the electromagnetic wire or signal cable
connection between the source and the sensitive component, along the cable the interference conducts from one unit to

·
Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Installing the Access Point
another. Conducted interference often affects the power supply of the equipment, but can be controlled by a filter.
Radiated interference may affect any signal path in the equipment, and is difficult to shield.
Effective measures should be taken for the power system to prevent the interference from the electric grid.
The working ground of the routers should be properly separated and kept as far as possible from the grounding
device of the power equipment or the anti-lightning grounding device.
Keep the equipment away from high-power radio transmitter, radar transmitting station, and high-frequency
large-current device.
Measures must be taken to isolate static electricity.

1000BASE-T/100BASE-TX/10BASE-T
The 1000BASE-T/100BASE-TX/10BASE-T is a 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiation port that supports auto MDI/MDIX.
Compliant with IEEE 802.3ab, 1000BASE-T requires Category 5e 100-ohm UTP or STP (STP is recommended) with a
maximum distance of 100 meters (328 feet).
1000BASE-T requires all four pairs of wires be connected for data transmission, as shown in Figure A-1.
Figure A-1 1000BASE-T Connection
10BASE-T uses Category 3, 4, 5 100-ohm UTP/STP and 1000BASE-T uses Category 5 100-ohm UTP/STP for
connections. Both support a maximum length of 100 meters. Table A-1 shows 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T pin assignments.
