Grounding Protection It is essential to properly ground all equipment to prevent the A3-Ei from the electrical damage and possible electric hazer due to non-proper power grounding. Failure to do so may result in equipment damage, injury or death. Product warranty does not cover damage resulting in part or in whole from improper grounding.
Altai A3-Ei Dual-band 3x3 802.11ac Wi-Fi Access Point Installation Guide is very important that using shielded outdoor rated Ethernet cable together with shielded RJ45 jack for outdoor deployment at the time. The differentiation between unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Ethernet cable and foiled twisted pair (FTP) cable is that the latter has a small wire under the foil.
