Cisco Aironet 1520 Series Outdoor Mesh Access Point Hardware Installation Guide
OL-12632-03
Chapter 1 Overview
Hardware Features
Cable Modem
The access point cable configuration contains an internal cable modem for connection to the cable
network from the pole-mounted cable lines. The access point can be powered using the 40-to 90-VAC
(quasi-square wave AC) power provided by the cable network.
Note The access point uses a Scientific Atlanta DPC2100 cable modem board and 4015821 RF splitter.
The cable modem supports these main features:
Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications (DOCSIS) 2.0
Backward compatibility with existing DOCSIS 1.1 and 1.0 networks
Metal Enclosure
The access point uses a metal enclosure that can accommodate both indoor or outdoor operating
environments and an industrial temperature operating range of –40 to 131°F (–40 to 55°C). The access
point complies with NEMA 4 and IP67 requirements.
Optional Hardware
Some of the access point hardware options are listed below:
Fiber-optic module and take-up reel kit (GLC-FE-100BX-URGD=)—Small form-factor pluggable
(SFP) module for connection to fiber-optic lines. The take-up reels are used to store excess
fiber-optic cable by wrapping the cable around the reels.
Single strand fiber bidirectional optical transceiver
1.3 (transmit) /1.5 (receive) micrometer wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) function
100 Mb/s data rates
LC receptacle
Supports up to 15.5 mi (25 km) of fiber-optic cable.
Pole mount kit (AIR-ACCPMK1520=)—provides hardware for mounting the access point to a metal
or wood pole, such as a streetlight pole.
Strand mount kit (AIR-ACCSMK1520=)—provides hardware for mounting the access point to a
cable strand.
Streetlight power tap adapter (AIR-PWR-ST-LT-R3P=)—connects to the light control connector on
a streetlight pole and provides AC power to the access point.
1520 power injector (AIR-PWRINJ1500-2=)—provides PoE to the access point.
40-ft (12.2-m) power cord for light pole installations in the US and Canada
(AIR-CORD-R3P-40NA=)—provides AC power to the access point. One end of the power cord is
terminated with an access point AC power connector, and the other end is terminated with an AC
plug.
Battery backup module (AIR-1520-BATT-6AH). The integrated battery can be used for temporary
backup power during external power interruptions.
