XR-2425H Quick Installation Guide XR-2425H Quick Installation Guide The XR-2425H Hardened Wireless Array provides Xirrus wireless technology in a hardened case for installation outdoors and in other harsh environments. This guide describes how to install the XR-2425H on a pole or wall and execute the initial power up of the Array. The pole or wall can be a structure that is installed at ground level or on a roof. The XR-2425H is not compatible with other Xirrus mounting options.
XR-2425H Quick Installation Guide 2425H. The XR-2425H is powered by one injector port rated at 30W or higher. See the Installation Guide for your PoE device for more information. NOTE: Xirrus-supplied PoGE Injectors and switches must be installed and used indoors. 2) Choose a Suitable Location The XR-2425H is tested to IP65 water proof and dust proof requirements to protect against severely wet and dusty environments.
XR-2425H Quick Installation Guide 4) Attach the Mounting Plate to the Array The accessory kit includes a mounting plate. Mounting plate dimensions are included in the Drawings section at the end of this guide. The mounting plate can be used for wall or pole mounting by reversing the side of the plate exposed.

XR-2425H Quick Installation Guide Hand tighten the Band-It strap through the pole mounting bracket, thread it through the strap buckle and then bend the strap back. Using the Band-It tool, place the tool onto the strap. Rotate the Band-It tool so that it can pull the excess strap through the buckle and turn the crank until the strap is very tight. Once the strap is satisfactorily tight, rotate the Band-It tool back so that the strap cannot slide back through the buckle.
XR-2425H Quick Installation Guide Your installation should now appear as shown here. Using a hammer, bend back and flatten the remaining strap. Using a hammer, bend and flatten the two tabs on the buckle to hold the flattened strap end in place. The completed attachment should have the mounting bracket firmly seated against the pole. One band should be enough for most installations however a second band can be used for additional mounting security.
XR-2425H Quick Installation Guide 6) Ground to Earth Ground WARNING: This equipment must be externally grounded using a customer-supplied ground wire before power is applied. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. The mechanical installation must ensure that the Array is grounded to earth ground to dissipate static electric charge that may develop due to wind.
