OVERVIEW
Your device can function in five different modes.
AP Mode is a regular access point for use in your wireless network. This is the default mode of the access point.
Repeater Mode is a wireless repeater (also called wireless range extender) that takes an existing signal from a wireless router or wireless access point and rebroadcasts it to create a second network.
Managed AP Mode acts as a “slave” AP within the AP array (controlled by the AP Controller “master”).
AP Controller Mode acts as the designated master of an AP array (group of linked access points).
Client Bridge Mode determines the device to be a client bridge. The client bridge receives wireless signal and provides it to devices connected to the bridge via Ethernet cable.
In AP Controller mode the user interface will switch to Edimax Pro NMS.
This user manual is mainly split into two parts:
- AP Mode (blue) – includes AP / Repeater / Managed AP / Client Bridge
Mode settings
- Edimax Pro NMS (grey) – includes AP Controller Mode settings

II Hardware Installation
II-1 Router/PoE Switch
1. If you need to, remove the cap from the underside of the device. This
creates extra space for your cables to pass through.
2. Connect a router or a PoE switch to the device’s LAN 1 port using an
Ethernet cable.
3. Power up the device:
a) If router is used, connect the power adapter to the device’s 12V DC
port and plug the power adapter into a power supply; or
b) If PoE (Power over Ethernet)
switch is used, make sure the Ethernet cable is connected to LAN1 port from the switch. The device will be powered by the PoE switch.
Do not use the power adapter if you are using a PoE switch.
4. Connect a local network client or switch to the device’s LAN 2 port as
required.

II-2 Mounting
To mount the device to a ceiling, please follow the instructions below and refer to diagram A & B.
II-2-1 Wooden Ceiling
Please refer to the figure below:
1. By using the holes A on the ceiling bracket, identify and mark correct
screw positions of the desired mounting location.
2. Where necessary, drill a hole (of radius smaller than the radius of the
provided screws) on each of the marked screw positions.
3. Fix the ceiling mount bracket to the desired location by inserting the
ceiling fixing screws B through the bracket ceiling holes A. Tighten the ceiling fixing screws B to the marked screw position using a screw driver to fix the bracket in place.
4. Fix the bracket rail screws C into the holes D on the device using a
screw driver. The cap of the screws should be protruding outwardly from the holes D.
5. Insert the bracket rail screws C into the device fixing holes E.
6. Twist the device as the bracket rail screws C slide through the bracket
rail F. Twist the device all the way until you feel that it is fixed in position.
