1 Getting Started

1.1 Package Contents

Getting Started

External antennas are ordered and shipped separately.

For AP 5115 to AP 5118:

• Customers supply their own power cable and use the power cable
connector kit to terminate the cable.

• Units can be powered either by AC power or by Power over Ethernet (PoE).

1.2 AC Power (AP 5115 to AP 5118 Only)

These units accept AC input power in the range of 100–240 V AC. The units do
not have a power switch. They are powered on when connected to a power
source. Maximum AC power consumption is 14.5 W.

Warning!

The unit contains a 5-A fuse and relies on the rated fuse or circuit breaker of
the wall outlet (15 A in North America, 10 A in Europe).

Warning!

Use ONLY the Ericsson power cable connector supplied with the unit. Use of
any other power cable connector can damage the unit and voids the Ericsson
product warranty.

1.3 Internet Port and Power

The unit can be powered with IEEE 802.3af or IEEE 802.3at Power over
Ethernet (PoE). Use IEEE 802.3af PoE for most applications. IEEE 802.3af
PoE supplies a maximum of 12.95 W to the powered device.

802.3at Cable Specification:

• 100 m maximum length

• Maximum cable pair resistance of 12.5 Ohms, satisfied by using CAT5
or CAT5e as specified by ANSI/TIA/EIA-568 or Class D as specified by
ISO/IEC 11801:1995

• 600 mA maximum current per pair

1.4 Functional Earth Ground and Lightning Protection

Units are not designed to survive a direct lightning hit. However, they are
intended to withstand the voltage and current surges induced from nearby
lightning activity.

The level of required lightning protection depends on regional lightning
conditions and location of installation. For example, an AP installed on a roof
top requires greater lightning protection than an AP installed on the side of a
building. The following is a list of recommended installation practices to mitigate
the voltage and current surges induced from lightning activity. If there is a
conflict between these recommendations and local or national electrical codes,
the local or national electrical codes must be followed.

• For streetlight or hydro/telecom pole mounting the AC power adapter
should be protected with a lightning surge protector. AC power routed to
the power adapter must be routed inside the pole. If power is routed on the
pole exterior, the power must be routed through a metal conduit grounded
at the base of the pole.

• For rooftop installations, the unit must not be mounted at the highest point
on the building. If the building has installed lightning arrestors, the unit must
be located within the umbrella protection zone—a 60 degree zone under
the lighting arrestor, but if possible, the unit should not be located closer
than 30 feet (approx. 10 m) from the lightning arrestor. Power and Ethernet
cables must be routed through independent grounded metal conduits.

• For lightning surge protection, the installer must connect a separate ground
wire between the external chassis of the unit and a ground on the pole. The
ground point on the AP accepts a

• It is recommended for areas susceptible to lightning activity, such as on
poles, rooftops, or on or near any tall structures, that shielded CAT 5e or
CAT 6 Ethernet cable be employed.

• The external antennas ports of the unit require lightning arrestors to be
employed whenever the external antenna is located more than 3 feet

(approx. 1 m) from the unit. When lightning arrestors are used, they must
be located within 3 feet (approx. 1 m) of the unit and must be grounded
to both the unit and protective earth ground. The
unit can be used for this application.

2.1 Step 1—Select Location

Choose a proper place for the unit. In general, the best location is at the
center of the intended wireless coverage area, within line of sight of all wireless
devices. For optimum performance, consider these guidelines:

• Mount the unit as high as possible above any obstructions in the coverage
area.

• Avoid mounting next to or near building support columns or other
obstructions that can cause reduced signal or null zones in parts of the
coverage area.

• Mount away from any signal absorbing or reflecting structures (such as
those containing metal).

The unit can be mounted on any wall or on a pole.

Warning!

Do not install the unit in any areas where blasting (blasting caps, radio
controlled equipment) or explosive gases can be present.

Warning!

To comply with FCC radio frequency (RF) exposure limits (FCC OET 65C) for
the general population, antennas must be located a minimum distance of 12
inches (approx. 30 cm) or more from the body of all persons.

2.2 Step 2—Mount Unit

Wall or Large Pole Mounting

Large poles have an outer diameter greater than 3 inches (7.6 cms). If mounted
on a flat surface, the unit must be mounted to a surface that is at least 1/2-inch
plywood or its equivalent. Poles must have the equivalent rigidity.

1. Attach the mounting plate to the wall or pole.

• For walls, use up to four 1/4 inch (M6) anchoring bolts. Use the plate as
a drill hole template. The outer edges of the plate must be elevated from
the wall surface while the center channel must touch the wall surface.

• For large poles, use through bolts or use the pairs of slots for stainless
steel strapping. The center channel must touch the pole surface.

2. Connect ground wire to unit.

Note: Ground wire not shown.

4. Attach unit to mounting plate:

a Insert mounting screws on the back of the unit into shoulder screw holes

on mounting plate. Slide unit down until screws are into the slots. Tighten
screws snug.
