5.6.2.4 Mark the Access Point Cables
Attention!
Step 1 is important, and will enable the network installer to configure the
system easily.
1. Mark the cable with a permanent label and make a note so that the network installer knows
which outdoor AP transceiver is connected to which port on the Access Panel junction box.
5.6.3 Grounding The System
The AB-Access System must be properly grounded in order to protect it and the structure it is
installed on from lightning damage. This requires:
1. Grounding all the outdoor transceivers as shown in Figure 5-14.
2. Grounding the Access Panel to the rack.
5.6.3.1 Grounding the Outdoor Access Points
1. Place the grounding rod so as to allow for the shortest possible path from the grounding
cable to the outdoor Access Points.
2. Drive the grounding rod into the ground at least eight inches from the ground surface.
3. Attach a grounding clamp to the grounding rod. You will use this clamp to attach grounding
wires for both the outdoor transceiver and indoor junction box, reference Figure 5-16.
