2 Preparing for Installation
To prevent device damage and physical injury, please read carefully the safety recommendations described in this
chapter.
Recommendations do not cover all possible hazardous situations.
2.1 Grounding and Lightning Protection
Ensure that both the power-receiving end and the power-supplying end are well-grounded.
Keep the grounding connection within 30 m, and use a 40mm x 4mm or 50mm x 5mm ground bar of hot-dip
zinc-coated flat steel sheet.
When the connection cable between the main grounding conductor and local equipotential earthing terminal board
(LEB) on each floor is shorter than 2 meters, use a stranded copper wire with a sectional area not less than 1.318
mm2 (16 AWG) for the connection cable.
Use a shielded network cable if possible, ensure that devices connected to both ends of the shielded network cable
are reliably grounded, and make sure that the sheath of the shielded network cable is also grounded if possible. If no
shielded network cable is available, wire the network cable through a steel pipe and bury the steel pipe for lead-in,
and properly ground both ends of the steel pipe.
No additional lightning protector is required as a high-profile lightning protector is built in the RG-EAP602, and the
power port support 6kV lightning protection. If a lightning protector of a higher profile is available, configure the
lightning protector optionally. Before the configuration, connect the lightning protector to the ground cable.
Use a power cable with the PE end to ground the power supply (AC). Ensure that the PE end is properly grounded,
with a ground resistance less than 5 ohms. Do not use a two-wire power cable with only the live (L) wire and naught
(N) wire. Do not connect the N wire to the protection ground cable of other communication devices, and ensure that
the L wire and N wire are properly connected.
Ensure that the ground resistance is less than 5 ohms. In areas with high soil resistivity, reduce the soil resistivity via
measures such as spreading resistivity reduction mixture around the grounding conductor.
2.2 Preparing the Installation Site
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.
Keep the AP at least 500 meters away from the ocean and do not face it towards the sea breeze.
The installation site should be protected from water and flooding, seepage, dripping, or condensation.
The installation site should be selected according to network planning, communications equipment features and
considerations such as climate, hydrology, geology, earthquake, electric power, and transportation.

Operating Temperature
-40°C to 65°C (-40°F to 149°F)
Operating Humidity
0% to 100% (non-condensing)
2.2.2 Outdoor Installation
The AP can be mounted on a wall or a pole.
2.2.3 Waterproof
Use a seal plug to seal the unused ports.
After using the reset button, please ensure that the cap is put back.
Use a waterproof plug to connect cables to the AP. For details, see Chapter 3 “Installing the Access Point”.
2.2.4 EMI
All interference sources (from outside or inside of the device or application system) affect the device by capacitive
coupling, inductive coupling, or electromagnetic waves.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) occurs due to electromagnetic radiation or conduction, depending on the transmission
path.
Radiation interference occurs when energy (usually radio frequency energy) is emitted from a device and propagated
through space to disrupt other devices. The interference source can be part of disrupted system or a fully electrically
isolated unit. Conduction interference occurs when interference is transferred from one unit to another through cables,
which are usually electromagnetic wires or signal cables connected between the source and the device(s) experiencing
interference. Conduction interference often affects the power supply of the device. It is eliminated by using filters.
Radiation interference can influence the path of any signal from the device and is difficult to shield.
Take effective measures against interference from the power grid.
Keep the AP far away from the grounding or lightning protection devices for power equipment.
Keep the AP away from high-power radio stations, radar stations, and high-frequency high-current devices.
Take electrostatic shielding measures.

3 Installing the Access Point
Before installing the AP, make sure you have carefully read the requirements described in Chapter 2.
3.1 Installation Flowchart
3.2 Before You Begin
Before you install the AP, verify that all the parts in the package contents are there and make sure that:
The installation site meets temperature and humidity requirements.
The installation site is equipped with a proper power supply.

3.3 Precautions
RG-EAP602 can be mounted on a wall and a pole (diameter: 50mm to 70mm, thickness: ≥2.5mm). Otherwise, the AP
could fall down and cause injuries. The installation site can vary due to on-the-spot surveys conducted by technical
personnel.
Please make full preparations as described in Chapter 2 and observe the following precautions before installing the AP.
Before connecting the power supply, make sure the external power supply matches the power module inside the AP.
Before connecting the power cord, make sure the power switch is in the OFF position.
When connecting a wire to a binding post, make sure their colors are the same.
Make sure the power supply is properly connected.
3.4 Installing the AP
Wall mount
Use M8 x 60 screws to implement the wall mount.
a. Attach the bracket to the wall and mark the screw hole locations.
Figure 3-1 Installing the Bracket
b. Align the host with bracket and mounting plate to the bracket on the wall, and tighten the M8×40 screws to complete
installation.

3.5 Connecting Cables
Connecting the network cable
Waterproofing material is customer-supplied.
1) Trim the network cable according to the distance between the AP and the power supply. And put the trimmed cable
through the bracket.
2) Thread the cable with an unprocessed RJ45 through the waterproof plug in the order shown in the Figure 3-7.
Figure 3-7 Threading the Network Cable
3) After the cable passes through the waterproof plug, process the RJ45.
4) Connect the cable with the LAN1/PoE/uplink port of AP, and tighten the waterproof plug in the order of B, C and D to
complete the installation.
5) To install the waterproof port not connected with the network cable: Insert the waterproof rubber rod into the ring,
and tighten them in order.
Make sure the plug is correctly inserted. The plug can be damaged if the liquid-tight adapter is improperly tightened.
Before removing the network cable, dismantle the waterproof plug first and then the plug.
Note
The product should not be installed in the place prone to water accumulation, seepage, dripping, and condensation.
The product is recommended to be installed horizontally.
If any requirement above can not be fulfilled, please use waterproof duct tape and waterproof plaster.

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.

When using shorter distances of single-mode fiber for optical SFP transceivers with cable distance greater than 40
km (including 40 km), you may need to insert an in-line optical attenuator in the link to avoid overloading the receiver.
