Summit WM3400 Wireless LAN Controller Installation Guide4
1 Introduction
The Extreme Networks® Summit® WM3400 wireless LAN controller is a member of the
Extreme Networks wireless controller family. The Summit WM3400 wireless LAN
controller provides centralized Wireless LAN (WLAN) configuration and management
by coalescing a network “intelligence” previously spread across physically distributed
access points.
The Summit WM3400 wireless LAN controller simplifies deployment of a Wired/
Wireless 802.11 a/b/g/n network, for a SME/SMB. With the integrated Layer 2/Layer 3
Networking Services such as integrated Layer 2 Switching with PoE+ ports, Onboard
DHCP Server, Security Services like Wired/Wireless Firewall, Wireless IDS/IPS,
Onboard AAA Server and IPSEC VPN Gateway, and QoS mechanisms to support Voice
& Video, the Summit WM3400 wireless LAN controller transforms the enterprise by
delivering a SMART Branch.
The Summit WM3400 wireless LAN controller is the WLAN’s single point of contact,
thus reducing wireless networking complexity by moving management out of the
ceiling and into the wiring closet.
adopt up to 6 Adaptive APs or thin access
additional licenses for AP adoption at this time.

Introduction
Document Conventions
The following graphical alerts are used in this document to indicate notable situations:
NOTE
Tips, hints, or special requirements that you should take note of.
CAUTION
Care is required. Disregarding a caution can result in data loss or equipment malfunction.
WARNING!
Indicates a condition or procedure that could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
Warnings
● Read all installation instructions and site survey reports, and verify correct
equipment installation before connecting the system to its power source.
● Remove jewelry and watches before installing this equipment.
● Install the equipment in a rack with adequate dimensions and weight allowances.
● Verify the rack is anchored and cannot tip over or break away from its mountings.
● Verify the unit is grounded before connecting it to the power source.
● Verify any device connected to this unit is properly wired and grounded.
● Connect all power cords to a properly wired and grounded electrical circuit.
● Verify the electrical circuits have appropriate overload protection.
● Attach only approved power cords to the device.
● Extreme Networks strongly recommends the use of an Uninterruptible Power
Supply (UPS) that supports the Summit WM3400 wireless LAN controller power
rating. Not using a UPS can result in data loss or equipment damage due to a power
surge or power failure.
Summit WM3400 Wireless LAN Controller Installation Guide6
● Verify that the power connector and socket are accessible at all times during the
operation of the equipment.
● Do not work with power circuits in dimly lit spaces.
● Do not install this equipment or work with its power circuits during thunderstorms
or other weather conditions that could cause a power surge.
● Verify there is adequate ventilation around the device, and ambient temperatures
meet equipment operation specifications.
Site Preparation
● Consult your site survey and network analysis reports to determine specific
equipment placement, port capacity, power drops, and so on.
● Assign installation responsibility to the appropriate personnel.
● Identify where all installed components are located.
● Verify appropriate rack mounting requirements.
● Provide a sufficient number of power drops for your equipment.
● Ensure adequate, dust-free ventilation to all installed equipment.
● Identify and prepare Ethernet and console port connections.
● Verify that cable lengths are within the maximum allowable distances for optimal
signal transmission.
● Verify that the Summit WM3400 wireless LAN controller is powered through an
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).

Power Cord Specifications and Power
Requirements
A power supply is included, however a power cord is not supplied with the controller.
A replacement power supply (Part Number: 15739) may be ordered separately from
Extreme Networks. Use only a correctly rated power cord certified (as appropriate) for
the country of operation.
Power Input Ratings
The power input ratings for the Summit WM3400 wireless LAN controller and power
supply are:
● Summit WM3400 wireless LAN controller: 48V DC, 2.5A
● Power supply: 100 - 240Vac, 3A, 47-63Hz

Specifications
Power Protection
● If possible, use a circuit dedicated to data processing equipment. Commercial
electrical contractors are familiar with wiring for data processing equipment and can
help with the load balancing of these circuits.
● Install surge protection. Be sure to use a surge protection device between the
electricity source and the Summit WM3400 wireless LAN controller.
● Install an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). A UPS provides continuous power
during a power outage. Some UPS devices have integral surge protection. UPS
equipment requires periodic maintenance to ensure reliability. A UPS of the proper
capacity for the data processing equipment must be purchased.

3 LED Codes
The Summit WM3400 wireless LAN controller has four vertically-stacked LEDs on its
front panel. Each of the controller’s six Gigabit Ethernet ports have two status LEDs.
These LEDs display two colors (green & amber), and three lit states (solid, blinking, and
off). The following tables decode the combinations of LED colors and states for the
System Status LEDs and the Gigabit Ethernet LEDs.
