RF Mesh Structure Description
The Amana
®
Brand AX should be mounted to a wall surface
no more than 6 ft. high at the top of the enclosure.
The Amana
®
Brand AX comes with an 8 ft. long, 110 Volt
standard power cable that will need to be plugged into a 110
Volt convenience outlet. Do not power other devices from the
transformer of the Amana
®
Brand AX. The transformer should
be dedicated to running the Amana
®
Brand AX. (See com-
plete list of items included on page 11.)
The Amana
®
Brand AX Gateway Antenna also has a cable
and connector that need to get plugged in to the Serial Port
of the Amana
®
Brand AX using the adapter connector sup-
plied with the Gateway antenna. The antenna body should be
mounted on the wall directly above the Amana
®
Brand AX
enclosure and at least 8 ft. above the floor or as high as
possible as the room ceiling will allow.
You should not select a room location for the antenna that has
many electrical panels like electrical closets. Remember,
the antenna signals are disrupted and blocked by metal, so
an electrical closet that has wall to wall, ceiling to floor metal
enclosures (like circuit breaker panels) is NOT a good
location for the Amana
®
Brand AX antenna.
Even though the IT closet where your Internet service equip-
ment is located (and the Amana
®
Brand AX network cable will
eventually connect to) might seem to be the easiest place to
install the Amana
®
Brand AX and antenna, it might not be the
best. The most important feature of the room where the
Amana
®
Brand AX is located is that it is not surrounded by
metal. You can acquire a CAT5 network cable of any length
and install the Amana
®
Brand AX in a suitable location where
antenna transmissions are not blocked.
Mounting
Mount the Amana
®
Brand AX, allowing clearance for wiring,
servicing, and module removal. For mounting details refer to
figure below
Static Discharge Precautions
Static charges produce voltages high enough to damage
electronic components. Discharge any static electricity you
may have accumulated. Discharge static electricity by touching
a known, securely grounded object.
