Installing the WLAN AP 8120 with External Antenna to the
ceiling
About this task
The WLAN AP 8120 with External Antenna installs similarly to the WLAN AP 8120. In addition
to installing the access point itself, with the WLAN AP 8120 with External Antenna you must
also mount the adjoining antennas. You can mount the WLAN AP 8120 with External Antenna
on the ceiling using a ceiling grid adaptor.
Plan your installation to allow for the installation of both the access point and the antennas.
Ensure you have the correct length of cable to connect the access point to the antennas. Each
antenna comes with three 3–ft pre-installed permanent cables. If your installation distance is
greater than the length of the original cables, you can attach additional 10–ft extension
cables.
Note:
Assembling the external antenna to the WLAN AP 8120 with External Antenna is completed
through Reverse Polarity SMA (RP-SMA) connectors. The installer should properly torque
the connector using a 5/16 inch torque wrench that is set to 3-5 in·lbf (0.3 to 0.6 N·m) for
brass, and 7-10 in·lbf (0.8–1.1 N·m) for stainless steel connectors. Flats are also provided
on the cable side of the connector assembly so that you use a second wrench to prevent it
rotating and damaging the joint to the cable. Avaya also recommends that you clean out
loose debris from the internal surfaces before connecting.
Warning:
The AP 8120 with External Antenna is designed for indoor use only and must not be used
outdoors.
Warning:
The AP 8120 with External Antenna must be installed by a professional installer. Read and
follow all warning notices and instructions on the product or included in the
documentation.
