FCC Safety Compliance Statement

The FCC with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to radio

frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified equipment. When used with approved

Cisco Aironet antennas, Cisco Aironet products meet the uncontrolled environmental limits found in

OET-65 and ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper installation of this radio according to the instructions found

in this manual will result in user exposure that is substantially below the FCC recommended limits.

Declaration of Conformity for RF Exposure

This access point product has been found to be compliant to the requirements set forth in CFR 47

Section 1.1307 addressing RF Exposure from radio frequency devices as defined in Evaluating

Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.

Use is permitted with antenna gain not exceeding 8 dBi in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band, as

described in filing, with a minimum separation distance of 20 cm (8") between the antenna and all

persons during normal operation.

Use is permitted with antenna gain not exceeding 13 dBi in the 2.4 GHz and 14 dBi in the 5 GHz band,

as described in filing, with a minimum separation distance of 50 cm (20") between the antenna and

all persons during normal operation.

Only antennas provided by Cisco for use with the product should be installed. The use of any other

antennas may cause damage to the access points or violate regulatory emission limits and will not be

supported by Cisco.

Declaration of Conformity with Regard to the EU Directive 1999/5/EC

(R&TTE Directive)

This declaration is only valid for configurations (combinations of software, firmware and hardware)

provided and/or supported by Cisco Systems. The use software or firmware not supported/provided

by Cisco Systems may result that the equipment is no longer compliant with the regulatory

requirements.

2 Introduction to the Access Point

The Cisco Aironet 1550 Series Outdoor Mesh Access Point (hereafter called the access point or AP) is

a ruggedized outdoor access point designed for service in mesh networks. The 1550 series leverages

802.11n technology with integrated radio and internal/external antennas. The 1550 outdoor platform

consists of Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) WLAN radios and integrated spectrum

intelligence (Clean Air).

CleanAir provides full 802.11n data rates while detecting, locating, classifying and mitigating radio

frequency (RF) interference to provide the best client experience possible. CleanAir technology on the

outdoor 11n platform mitigates WiFi and non-WiFi interference on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios.

The 1550 AP series 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 1550 series supports the modularity of the 1520 series and allows flexibility in radio

configuration. In addition to full interoperability with 802.11n clients, the 1550 series interoperates

with legacy clients and offers enhanced backhaul performance. The 1552C access point is configured

with an integrated DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem.

The access point is a standalone unit that can be cable strand 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-multipoint mesh deployments. The controllers use a browser-based

management system, a command-line interface (CLI), or the Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS)

network management system to manage the controller and the associated access points. The access

point is compliant with Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2) and employs hardware-based Advanced

Encryption Standard (AES) encryption between wireless nodes to provide end-to-end security.
