Re: 2.4gHz WLAN Segment through a bit of foliage?
Just as a quick clarification, the DLB2700 PCB does not have the surge suppressor built into it. The ethernet surge suppressor is a standalone unit inside the enclosure that grounds to the rest of the internal chasis and then to the external ground screw. You can see the pics on the FCC site for FCC ID RIW-ZW-2000 from Zinwell.

Citel or Hyperlink or Teletronics CAT5 lightning protectors will add extra protection to Ethernet port on the DLB2300.
You could bond the PCB metal shield to the protector's ground lug with a heavy gauge wire and then ground the whole system, but there are many different ways.
BTW, very few radios integrate RJ45 lighting/surge protection directly on the PCB like the new DLB2700 PCB. So even if the radio PCB is grounded to metal enclosure, the CAT5 PoE and data signals are not fully protected.  |
