For in-depth details on configuring a wireless mesh network, please see: • Cisco Mesh Networking Solution Deployment Guide Detailed configuration information can also be found in the Cisco wireless LAN controller documentation for the controller and software release you are using. These documents are available on Cisco.com. Follow these steps to access these documents: Step 1 Browse to http://www.cisco.com. Step 2 Click Support. A pop-up window appears. Step 3 Click Wireless under Select a Product Name. The Select Your Product or Technology page appears. Step 4 Click Wireless > Outdoor Wireless. Step 5 Click Cisco AP 1530 Series in the Search for a Specific Product field. The Cisco 1530 Series Introduction page appears. Step 6 Choose the appropriate link for the documentation you want to view or download. General Safety Guidelines Warnings Safety warnings appear throughout this guide in procedures that may harm you if performed incorrectly. A warning symbol precedes each warning statement. The warnings below are general warnings that are applicable to the entire guide. Specific warnings are included in the sections to which they apply. Warning This warning symbol means danger. You are in a situation that could cause bodily injury. Before you work on any equipment, be aware of the hazards involved with electrical circuitry and be familiar with standard practices for preventing accidents. Use the statement number provided at the end of each warning to locate its translation in the translated safety warnings that accompanied this device.  Statement 1071  SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 3 Warning Do not operate the unit near unshielded blasting caps or in an explosive environment unless the device has been modified to be especially qualified for such use.  Statement 364 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.  Statement 366 Warning Read the installation instructions before connecting the system to the power source.

Statement 1030 Warning Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws and regulations. Statement 1040 4 2 Introduction to the Access Point The Cisco Aironet 1530 Series Outdoor Mesh Access Point (hereafter called the access point or AP) is a rugged outdoor access point designed for service in mesh networks. The 1530 series leverages 802.11n technology with integrated radio and internal/external antennas. The 1530 contains a 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz radio with an option to configure in centralized, Flexconnect, or mesh mode. The 2.4-GHz radios are used primarily for local access, and the 5-GHz radios can be configured for both local access and/or wireless backhaul in the Mesh mode. The access point is a standalone unit that can be wall, pole or tower mounted. The access point can also operate as a relay node for other access points not directly connected to a wired network. Intelligent wireless routing is provided by the Adaptive Wireless Path Protocol (AWPP). This enables each access point to identify its neighbors and intelligently choose the optimal path to the wired network by calculating the cost of each path in terms of signal strength and the number of hops required to get to a controller. The access point is configured, monitored, and operated through a Cisco wireless LAN controller (WLC), referred to as a controller in this document. The WLC is described in the appropriate Cisco Wireless LAN Controller Configuration Guide. The Cisco Mesh Networking Solution Deployment Guide describes how to plan and initially configure the Cisco mesh network, which supports wireless point-to-point and point-to-multipoint mesh deployments. The controllers use a browser-based management system, a command-line interface (CLI), or the Cisco Prime Infrastructure (CIP) network management system to manage the controller and the associated access points. 5 3 Unpacking the Access Point Follow these steps to unpack the access point: Step 1 Open the shipping container and carefully remove the contents. Step 2 Return all packing materials to the shipping container and save it. Step 3 Ensure that all items listed in the “Package Contents” section on page 5 are included in the shipment. Check each item for damage. If any item is damaged or missing, notify your authorized Cisco sales representative. Package Contents Each access point package contains the following items: • One 1530 series access point • Two-pin DC power connector • Ground lug (Panduit PLCD6-10A-L) and screws with lock washers • Plastic cable gland and rubber seal • Weatherization tape and anti-corrosion sealant • Cisco product documentation and translated safety warnings Optional Equipment Depending on what you ordered, the following optional equipment may be part of your shipment: • External antennas, depending on which ones you purchased (see “1532E Antennas” section on page 6 for more information). • Wall/Pole mount bracket, available as an option or a spare (AIR-ACC1530-PMK1[=]) • Wall/Pole mount bracket with tilt mechanism, spare only (AIR-ACC1530-PMK2=)…

Is from an old report template and should have not appeared in the report since FCC KDB 662911 now governs these issues. It will be removed from future report templates. 2) The correlation gains listed for Total Power and Power Spectral Density are based on and compliant to FCC KDB 662911.

Please refer to the electronic copy within EDCS for the most up to date version. Cisco Systems, Inc. Company Confidential Section 1: Overview 1.1 Test Summary samples were assessed against the tests detailed in section 3 under the requirements of the following specifications: Emission Immunity CFR47 Part 15.407 RSS210 N/A The specifications listed above represent actual tests performed to demonstrate compliance against the specifications and basic standards listed on the front cover of this report. This list is not a one to one match to the front cover for one or more of the following reasons. 1. Basic standards call up many different test phenomena specifications such as the 61000-4-X series. The basic standards define which elements and levels shall be applied from these specifications and as such it is not appropriate to list the individual specifications on the front cover. 2. A Standard listed on the front cover may be required in a particular country but is not appropriate for the particular technologies included in the equipment under test. E.g. You cannot test a DC product to the mains Harmonics requirements in EN61000-3-2. See section 3.2. 3. Test results against a particular standard or specification may be included in a different test report. See section 3.2 for an EDCS reference of this data. 4. Where appropriate, Cisco may have substituted a later revision of a basic standard to those referenced in the specification on the front sheet of this test report. This decision was based upon improved test methodology and repeatability and/or where the newer revision represented a more stringent test. 5. Where relevant, testing has been carried out to the requirements of both EN and IEC Specifications. This was possible because of the similarities of the test methods involved and the Cisco EMC test procedures. 6. Testing may have been performed to an equivalent test that satisfies the requirements of the standards and specifications listed on the front cover of the report. See section 3.2. 7. Where radiated emissions testing has been performed to EN55022/CISPR22 the additional requirements of VCCI: V- 3/2006.04, EN55022: 1994 +A1/2 and CAN/CSA- CISPR 22-02 have also been evaluated unless otherwise stated. 8. Testing to the requirements of CFR47 Part 15 was performed against the CISPR22 limits. The results are therefore deemed satisfactory evidence of compliance with Industry Canada Interference Causing Equipment Standard ICES-003. 9. Where assessment has been performed to CISPR24, all the applicable test requirements may have not been covered. Refer to the results section for the tests performed. Notes: …
