• Snow and Ice — Falling snow, like rain, has no significant effect on the
radio signal. However, a build up of snow or ice on antennas may cause the
link to fail. In this case, the snow or ice has to be cleared from the antennas
to restore operation of the link.
ETHERNET CABLING
When a suitable antenna location has been determined, you must plan a cable
route form the wireless bridge outdoors to the power injector module indoors.
Consider these points:
• The Ethernet cable length should never be longer than 100 m (328 ft)
• Determine a building entry point for the cable
• Determine if conduits, bracing, or other structures are required for safety or
protection of the cable
• For lightning protection at the power injector end of the cable, use a
lightning arrestor immediately before the Ethernet cable enters the building
GROUNDING
It is important that the wireless bridge, cables, and any supporting structures are
properly grounded. The wireless bridge unit includes a grounding screw for
attaching a ground wire. Be sure that grounding is available and that it meets
local and national electrical codes.
