authority to operate the equipment and will void the warranty of the product. No user serviceable parts; all repairs
and service must be handled by a qualified service center.
All products using external antennas must be professionally installed, and the transmit power of the system must
be adjusted by the professional installer/s to ensure that the system's EIRP (Equivalent Isotropically Radiated
Power) is in compliance with the limit specified by the regulatory authority of the country of deployment.
During deployment of the system and its initial setup, professional installer must ensure that the allowed EIRP
limit is not exceeded (in the Country of exploitation of this equipment). To achieve this, the professional
installer must use the approved/recommended antennas by the manufacturer (dell.com). The professional
installer must enter the antenna gain in Controller software by selecting the AP from the Access Point tab, click
edit, click more, select External Antenna tab and enter the antenna gain values. Additional attenuation between
the device and antenna may have to be measured or calculated.
The following formula can be used to calculate the EIRP limit related RF power based on selected antennas
(antenna gain) and feeder (Coaxial Cable loss):
EIRP = Tx RF Power (dBm) +GA (dB) - FL (dB)
