Deployments of gateway devices connected by wire to an indoor

switch/router would include installation of a lightning protector. A lightning

protector is not supplied as part of the standard package. It can be

ordered from GO Networks as an accessory.

Specific installation may require different Power/Ethernet connections. See

Cable Connections for more details.

MBW 1100 (WLP) Safety Information

RF Exposure

The MBW 1100 (WLP), 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.

MBW 1100 (WLP) Lightning Protector

A lightning protector is required when the MBW 1100 (WLP) 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 1100 (WLP) 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.
