precautions given in this manual before installing RG-AP620-H.

Note

The following safety precautions can't cover all possible hazardous

conditions.

2.2 Grounding and Lightning

Protection

1. Grounding body

The grounding body shall adopt hot-galvanized flat steel (or copper), with dimension

no less than 40mm*4mm. The vertical grounding body shall adopt

50mm*50mm*5mm (minimum) hot galvanized angle bar with length reaching 2.5m; in

case steel tube is used, the wall thickness must reach at least 3.5mm.

2. Ground lead

The ground lead shall adopt 40mm * 4mm or 50mm * 5mm hot-galvanized flat steel

with length no exceeding 30m.

3. Grounding bus bar

The grounding bus bar shall be generally copper bar with cross-sectional area no

less than 160mm2. The vertical grounding trunk for high-rise buildings shall adopt

copper bar with cross-sectional area no less than 300mm2.

4. If the distance between the grounding bus bar of respective floors and the

connecting wire of Local Expansion Bus (LEB) of equipment room is rather short,

multi-strand copper wire with cross-sectional area being 16mm2 can be used; if the

distance is long, multi-strand copper wire with cross-sectional area no less than

35mm2 must be used.

5. The network cable shall adopt shielded cables and devices at both ends shall be

reliably grounded, while the shielding jacket of network cables shall be grounded as

possible. If network cables cannot be shielded as required, the cables can be

inserted into the steel tube and buried into the ground, with both ends of the steel

tube properly grounded.

6. The lightning protector shall be installed nearby the premises-outgoing segment of

network cable.

7. In plain areas, the protection angle of antenna lightning arrester shall be less than

45 degree. In mountainous and high-lightning areas, the protection angle of antenna

lightning arrester shall be less than 30 degree. Devices like lightning arrester shall

share the grounding body with the equipment room.

8. The grounding resistance shall be less than 5 ohm. For places with high soil

resistivity, the resistance-reducing agent shall be sprinkled around the soil of

grounding body to reduce soil resistivity.

9. When AC power is used, the power cable with PE pin shall be used instead of

changing into 2-core power cable with only L and N lines. The N line must not be

connected to the protective ground used by other communication devices, while L

and N lines must not be reversed.

2.3 Site Selection

AP620-H shall not be installed in heated, dusty, inflammable or explosive

environment, or at sites with noxious gases, electromagnetic interference (i.e.,

nearby large-sized radar station, transmitting station, transformer substation and etc),

unstable voltage, notable vibration, or high noise. The installation site shall be dry and

far from the seaside (greater than 500m from seaside), while the device must not be

exposed to the sea wind. Do not install the device at places being prone to water

accumulation, water penetration, water dripping and dewing. During engineering

design, the installation site complying with communication equipment engineering

design requirements shall be selected according to communication network planning

and technical requirements of the subject communication equipment, as well as such

factors of climate, hydrology, geology, earthquake, power supply and transportation.

2.4 Temperature & Humidity

The operating temperature and humidity of the device are shown below:

Standard operating ambient temperature: -40℃ - 55℃

Storage temperature: -40℃ - 85℃

Working humidity (non-condensing): 5% - 95%

2.5 Outdoor Installation

RG-AP620-H WLAN AP is designed for direct outdoor installation and supports

wall-mount installation and pole-mount installation.

2.6 Waterproof Considerations

1. For unused interfaces, the corresponding waterproof plugs shall be processed (use

waterproof tape to rewind the screw thread of waterproof plug for three loops), and

then seal the unused interfaces with waterproof plugs.

2. After completing the installation of external cables, use waterproof tape to rewind the

cable to ensure the waterproof effect.

2.7 EMI Considerations

Various interference sources, no matter from inside or outside of the device or

application system, will have impacts on the device through capacitive coupling,

inductive coupling and electromagnetic wave radiation.

Electromagnetic interference can be divided into radiated interference and conducted

interference, which will be determined according to the type of transmission path.

Radiated interference is incurred when the energy (usually the RF energy)

transmitted by a component reaches the sensor through air. The interference source

can either be a part of the interfered system or be an electrically isolated unit. The

conducted interference is incurred when the interference source and the sensor are

connected via magnet wire or signal cable and the interfering signal is transmitted

from one unit to the other unit through the cable. Usually affecting the power supply of

device, the conducted interference can be controlled by the filter. The radiated

interference can have impact on any signal path of the device, and is difficult to

shield.

(1) Effective power grid interference control measures shall be taken against the

power supply system.

(2) The working earth of the wireless AP shall be kept far away from the earthing

installation and lightning earth of power equipment instead of sharing.

(3) The device shall be kept far away from high-power radio station, radar station and

high-frequency & heavy-current devices.

(4) Electrostatic shielding shall be applied.

2.8 Precautions for Optical

Fiber Connection

Before optical fiber connection, please make sure the optical connector matches with

the optical interface used. Meanwhile, please pay attention to the transmitting and

receiving directions of optical cable. The transmitting interface of this device shall be

connected to the receiving interface of counterpart device, while the receiving

interface of this device shall be connected to the transmitting interface of counterpart

device.

Pay attention to the following precautions when installing the all-directional outdoor

antenna:

1. When installing the all-directional antenna, the lightning arrester must not be

directly welded onto the hold pole (there mustn't be any metallic object within 1m

horizontal reach of the all-directional antenna). Instead, a lightning arrester must be

separately erected between the hold poles of two all-directional antennae. The height

of lightning arrester must allow the top of all-directional antenna to be covered by the

protection angle.

2. After the installation, make sure the top of hold pole is flush with the lower anchor

ear of the antenna.

3. The height of antenna must meet the signal coverage requirements, and the top of

antenna must be covered by the 45-degree protection angle of the lightning arrester.
