2.4.1 Cable Connection
2.4.1.1 Grounding Cable Connection
When grounding the unit, use the GND (ground) screw on the unit as a grounding
point. The Grounding screw (marked ) is located on the rear panel of the unit.
1 Connect one end of a grounding cable to the ground terminal and firmly
tighten the grounding screw.
2 Connect the opposite end of the grounding cable to a ground connection.
2.4.1.2 Data/PoE Cable Connection
For all units, use Category 5E Ethernet cables with two shielded RJ-45
connectors from either Alvarion or any of the approved manufacturers, listed in
Table 2-2. The provided cables are crimped.
Consult with Alvarion's specialists on the suitability of other cables.
For 5 GHz units, if you use a PoE indoor power supply (see “Indoor Power Supply
Installation” on page 42), the data port cable is used as a power source cable. In
this case, use a Power over Ethernet (PoE) cable for connecting PoE to the
BreezeMAX Extreme unit.
For 5 GHz units using two radios (diversity) the maximum length of the PoE cable
should not exceed 70m.
To connect the grounding cable:
NOTE
The length of the Data/PoE cable, together with the length of the Ethernet cable should not exceed
100 meters.
CAUTION
As PoE cable conducts power as well, there is a risk of electric shock and energy hazard.
