How to Use This Guide

This guide includes detailed information on the Access Point (AP) hardware,

including network ports, power, cabling requirements, as well as plug-in

transceivers. This guide also provides general installation guidelines and

recommended procedures. To deploy this AP effectively and ensure trouble-free

operation, you should first read the relevant sections in this guide so that you are

familiar with all its hardware components.

Who Should Read This

Guide?

This guide is for network administrators and support personnel that install, operate

and maintain network equipment. The guide assumes a basic working knowledge

of LANs (Local Area Networks) and can be read by those that are new to network

equipment, or those with more experience.

How This Guide is

Organized

This organization of this guide is based on the AP’s main hardware components.

Each chapter includes information about a specific component with relevant

specifications and installation procedures. An AP overview section is also provided.

For Users New to APs

— If you are new to APs, it is recommended that you first

read all chapters in this guide before installing the AP.

For Experienced Users

— If you are already familiar with installing and operating

network APs, Chapters 1 and 2 provide you with enough information to install the

AP. Other chapters can be left for reference, when needed.

The guide includes these chapters:

◆Chapter 1 - Access Point Overview — Includes an AP overview, key component

identification, and key technical specifications.

◆Chapter 2 - Installation Overview — Includes information on the package

contents, system configuration, and an outline of AP installation tasks.

◆Chapter 3 - AP Chassis — Includes AP installaion for pole or wall, and external

antenna connection.

◆Chapter 4 - Power and Grounding — Includes information on PoE power for the

unit, AP grounding, and powering on the AP.

◆Chapter 5 - Network Connections — Includes information on network

interfaces, installing optional transceivers, and cabling specifications.
