Installation Requirements
Clear line of sight between GigaBeam AP and station
Vertical mounting orientation
Mounting point:
At least 1 m below the highest point on the structure
For tower installations, at least 3 m below the top of the tower
Outdoor, shielded Category 6 (or above) cabling and shielded RJ45 connectors are
required for all wired Ethernet connections.
Surge protection should be used for all outdoor installations. We recommend that you
use two Ethernet Surge Protectors, model ETH-SP-G2, one near the device and the other
at the entry point to the building. The ETH-SP-G2 will absorb power surges and safely
discharge them into the ground.
Note: For guidelines about grounding and lightning protection, follow your
local electrical regulatory codes.
