Step 1: Find a Suitable Location
To make optimal use of the 5012/5054-SUI, you must find a suitable location for the hardware. The range of the unit
largely depends upon the position of the antenna. Proxim recommends you do a site survey, observing the following
requirements, before mounting the 5012/5054-SUI hardware.
• The location must allow easy disconnection of the unit from the power outlet if necessary.
• The unit must not be covered and the air must be able to flow freely around the unit.
• The unit must be kept away from vibration, excessive heat, and humidity, and kept free from dust buildup.
• The installation must conform to local regulations at all times.
CAUTION: Local regulations may require the use of a lightning arrestor at the building ingress point. Be sure to comply
with this and all local regulations. You can purchase the Proxim Lightning Protector MP.11/QB.11 (70251);
see the documentation that comes with the Lightning Protector for more information and installation
instructions.
Step 2: Unpack Shipping Box
1. Unpack the unit and accessories from the shipping box.
2. Note the Ethernet and MAC addresses of the unit, as well as the serial number; these addresses may be used when
configuring the unit.
NOTE: The serial number is required to obtain support from Proxim. Keep this information in a safe place.
