damage during delivery.
The 4ipnet’s Enterprise Access Point EAP Series are embedded with 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac MIMO
technology, designed for seamless wireless connectivity in enterprise or industrial environments of all
dimensions. EAP220 / EAP320 / EAP330 / EAP705 / EAP706 / EAP727 / EAP757 / EAP760 / EAP767
feature dual radio RF cards to offer flexible implementations needed for the growing wireless networking
applications. The EAP Series make wireless communication fast, secure and easy. They support business
grade security, namely 802.1X, and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2). By pushing a purposely
built button, the 4ipWES (Press-n-Connect) feature makes it easy to bridge wireless links of multiple access
points for forming a wider wireless network coverage.
The EAP Series also features multiple ESSIDs with VLAN tags and multiple Virtual APs, great for enterprise
applications, such as separating traffic from different departments using different ESSIDs. The PoE LAN
port is able to receive power from Power over Ethernet (PoE) sourcing devices.
EAP210, EAP220, EAP320 and EAP330’s metal housing is IP50 anti-dust compliant, which means that
these Access Points are well suited to WLAN deployment in industrial environments. EAP701 / EAP705 /
EAP706 / EAP717 / EAP727 / EAP757 / EAP760 / EAP767 are packed in wall/ceiling mountable plastic
enclosures, and are built perfectly to blend in with your décor.
Outdoor – OWL530 / OWL620 / OWL630
The 4ipnet OWL530 / OWL620 / OWL630 Outdoor Access Point is embedded with dual (OWL620 and
OWL630) / single (OWL530) radio RF cards (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac MIMO) in weatherproof housing, designed
for building municipal or campus wide wireless networks in harsh outdoor environments. The OWL Series’
rust-free die-cast Aluminum housing is IP68 compliant and high wind load resilient. All the components are
designed to operate in a wide range of temperature. The OWL Series Outdoor Access Point makes wireless
communication fast, secure and easy. It supports business grade security, namely 802.1X, and Wi-Fi
Protected Access (WPA and WPA2).
Combined with a variety of directional antennas (chosen by professionals), one OWL620/OWL630 with dual
radios is easy to serve clients located in different directions as well as to cover longer range. With all
modules supporting a/b/g/n bands, more channels are available for better channel planning. For example,
to reduce radio interferences, network planners may select channels in 5 GHz for backhaul or bridges while
allocating non-overlapping channels in 2.4 GHz for serving clients.

2.4 Access Web Management Interface
4ipnet Access Points support web-based configuration. When hardware installation is complete, the AP can
be configured through a PC by using a web browser.
The default values of the AP’s LAN IP Address and Subnet Mask are:
IP Address: 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Example of entering the AP's default IP Address into a web browser
To access the web management interface (WMI), connect the administrator PC to the LAN port of the
AP via an Ethernet cable. Then, set a static IP Address on the same subnet mask as the AP in
TCP/IP settings of your PC, such as the following example:
IP Address: 192.168.1.100
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Launch the web browser on your PC and enter the IP Address of the AP (192.168.1.1) at the address
field, and then press Enter. The following Administrator Login Page will appear. Enter “admin” for
both the Username and Password fields, and then click Login.
