MBW 510 Safety Information
RF Exposure
The MBW 510, an outdoor access point, is compliant with the requirements
set forth in CFR 47 section 1.1307, addressing RF Exposure from radio
frequency devices as defined in OET Bulletin 65. The outdoor access point
antennas should be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 3
feet (1 meter) from humans.
A lightning protector is required when the MBW 510 unit is installed in an
outdoor location and the Ethernet cable connects to an indoor network
device.
The purpose of the lightning protection is to protect people and equipment
located indoors from lightning that might strike the MBW 510 or its
outdoor cables. Therefore, the lightning protector device should be
installed indoors, as close as possible to the point where the cables enter
the building.
The lightning protector can also be installed outdoors, as long as the
cables that go from the lightning protector to the indoors are well
protected from lightning between the box and the building entrance.
Verify that you have shared grounding. GO Networks offers a lightning
protector that can be ordered separately.
