To access and use the Web configuration management system, you need a
computer that is running Internet Explorer 5.0 or newer and one of the
following operating systems: Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT 4.0
Service Pack 6, Windows 2000, or Windows XP. It is recommended that this
computer become the dedicated workstation for managing and configuring
the access point and the wireless network.
POWER REQUIREMENTS
The access point complies with the IEEE 802.3af power-over-Ethernet standard. It
receives power over standard category 5 straight (8-wire) Ethernet cable.
Installation requires the use of either the 3Com power supply provided or
IEEE
802.3af compliant power supply equipment (output power rated 48 V dc @
350 mA maximum). Such equipment must be safety certified according to UL,
CSA, IEC or other applicable national or international safety requirements for the
country of use. All references to the power supply in this document refer to
equipment that meets these
requirements.
Because the power supply plug is the only means of disconnecting the access
point from power, make sure the power outlet is accessible.
See “Using an Optional Power-Over Ethernet Injector” on page 17 and “Using a
Power-Over-Ethernet LAN Port” on page 18.
SAFETY INFORMATION
This equipment must be installed in compliance with local and national building
codes, regulatory restrictions, and FCC rules. For the safety of people and
equipment, only professional network personnel should install the access point,
cables, and antennas.
Note for use of the 3Com power supply (part number 61-0107-000) in Norway:
This product is also designed for use on an IT power system with phase-to-phase
voltage of 230 V.
CAUTION: If you supply your own Ethernet cable for connecting power, be sure
that it is category 5 straight-through (8-wire) cable that has not been altered in
any way. Use of nonstandard cable could damage the
access point.
CAUTION: To comply with FCC radio frequency (RF) exposure limits, a minimum
body-to-antenna distance of 1 meter (3 feet) must be maintained when the access
point is
operational.
