18If the AP is connected to the switch through a fiber cable, an SFP transceiver module and a liquidtight adapter are required at the AP side. See Figure 19.Figure 19 Connecting the fiber cable to the fiber port of the APTo connect a fiber cable:1. Insert an SFP transceiver module into the fiber port of the AP.2. Insert an LC fiber connector with liquid tight adapter to the SFP transceiver module.3. Loosen the sealing nut, tighten the liquid tight adapter, and then tighten the sealing nut.4. Seal the connection with waterproof sealing tape.NOTE:• The optional fiber cable is a 10-meter pigtail with waterproof sheath. One end of the pigtail uses an LCconnector and a liquid tight adapter and is inserted into the fiber port of the AP and the other end uses an SCconnector and is connected to an end user terminal or switch.• If the fiber is connected to a fiber termination box, connect the SC connector to a pair of SC sockets. Theone marked as A is the receiving port (RX) of the AP and must be connected to the transmitting port (TX) ofthe peer device; the one marked as B is the TX port of the AP and must be connected to the RX port of thepeer device. Typically, fiber termination boxes are not waterproof. Put the fiber termination box indoor or in awaterproof cabinet.• If the fiber is connected to a fiber connector box, cut off the SC connector and splice the fiber end with theconnector on the connector box. The pigtail marked as A is connected to the RX port of the AP and the TXport of the peer device; the pigtail marked as B is connected to the TX port of the AP and the RX port of thepeer device. Fiber connector boxes are usually waterproof and can be buried underground or mounted on apole.Connecting the Ethernet cableCAUTION:• To avoid AP damage, follow the procedure when connecting the Ethernet cable.• Use a shielded twisted pair cable (category 5e or higher) with waterproof sheath for outdoor installation. Thecable length from the Ethernet switch to the AP cannot exceed 100 m (328.08 ft).To connect the Ethernet cable:1. Route the Ethernet cable with waterproof sheath from the equipment room to the AP.
