NOTE
Installation must be performed by qualified service personnel only.
Please follow all warning notices and instructions marked on the
product or included in the documentation. The manufacturer is not
responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by unauthorized
modifications to this equipment. Such modifications could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment. The 510 sensor has two RJ-
45 10/100TX ports. The 510 sensor receives power and data through the
RJ-45 port. Use a CAT 5 straight-through Ethernet cable to connect the
510 sensor to a wireless switch or other device in the network. The 510
sensor supports 802.3af, and also can receive Power over Ethernet (PoE)
from AirDefense-approved power injectors.
If you plan to use an external antenna for the 802.11b/g or 802.11a
radio, install the antenna at least 20 cm from the sensor.
The solid surface mounting option requires CAT 5 cable that does not
have strain relief. The other mounting options can use CAT 5 cable with
or without strain relief.
