Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point
Powering the Access Point
Caution For your safety, when connecting the access point AC power connector, always connect the access point
end of the cable FIRST. When removing the AC power connector, always disconnect the access point
end of the cable LAST.
If your access point contains a backup battery pack, you must press the reset button for 10 seconds or
more (see the “Disabling Backup Battery Power” section on page 3-10.)
Step 3 When using the streetlight power tap adapter (AIR-PWR-ST-LT-R3P=), ensure that the access point is
mounted within 3 feet (1 m) of the outdoor light control. For mounting instructions, refer to the
“Installing the Mounting Bracket on a Pole (All Models)” section on page 2-18.
Step 4 Ensure that a 6-AWG ground wire is attached to the access point (see Figure 2-38) and connected to the
streetlight pole (for instructions see Grounding the Access Point, page 2-41).

Step 5
Ensure that the streetlight power tap adapter, which uses a 3-pronged LC-10 twist-lock adapter, is placed
between the outdoor light control and its fixture (refer to Figure 2-38). The LC-10 twist-lock adapter is
designed to be used with LC-10 listed outdoor light controls operating at 100 to 480 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz.
Step 6 Disconnect the outdoor light control from its fixture.
Step 7 Verify that the voltage available at the fixture is between 100 and 480 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz.
Step 8 Turn off power to the fixture at the designated circuits.
Caution When installing the streetlight power tap adapter to the access point AC power connector, always
connect the access point end of the cable FIRST. When removing the streetlight power tap adapter,
always disconnect the access point end of the cable LAST.
Note Ensure that your antennas are connected to the access point before you apply power to the access
point.
