NetBotz Wireless Sensor Pod 180 Installation Guide

Mounting the Wireless Sensor Pod
When planning your wireless network installation locations, place each End
Device or Router within range of another Router or a Coordinator. The
maximum range of the Wireless Sensor Pod is 100 ft (line of sight). This range
is a best-case scenario; the signal will be strongly affected by environmental
interference. Use the RSSI sensor reading (available in the device’s sensor
listing in Advanced View) to tune device placement. A reading above 30%
RSSI is ideal.
To improve connection strength, it is recommended to use a Router in every
third rack to boost reception.
Additional information on device placement may be found on the Knowledge
Base, http://www.apc.com/support/answers.cfm.
Choose the option below that fits your location.
Note: Install your wireless network in an environment compatible
with the environmental specifications on page 17.
Toolless peg-mount installation
Note: The toolless peg-mount installation is only available with a
NetShelter VX, SX, or SV rack.
The Wireless Sensor Pod 180 ships with a pair of plastic rivets and sleeves to be
used when mounting the pod in a NetShelter VX, NetShelter SX, or NetShelter
SV rack.
To mount the Wireless Sensor Pod:
1. Separate the two pieces of the plastic rivets.
2. Place the pod in the desired location on the rack door. Make sure that all
external sensors can reach their desired locations from the mounting
point.
3. From the outside of the rack, insert the rivet sleeves through the mesh
grating and into the mounting holes on the rear of the pod.
4. Insert the push rivet into the sleeve. Push until the rivet is firmly seated.
Repeat with the second rivet.
5. Connect the external sensors to the appropriate ports.
