The access point is not installed inside the building but outdoors, for example
directly next to the antenna, in order to reduce the length of cable between
the antenna and the access point.

In this case, the AirLancer Extender SA-5L surge-protection adapter is
installed directly between Access Point and antenna and grounded
for example via the antenna's potential equalization line.

If any LANCOM OAP model is operated with the supplied rod antenna
instead of with an external antenna, the lightning protection adapter
AirLancer Extender SA-5L cannot be employed due to the connector
shape. In this case it is imperative that a lightning rod is employed!
쮿 If the Access Point is installed outside, its grounding and that of the
AirLancer Extender SA-5L are connected with the antenna's conductor, for
example via the clamps on the antenna's mounting.
