The Cable Connections of indoor APs:

No. Cable Description

1 2.4G/5G dual-band antenna

Connects a 2.4G/5G Dual-band antenna to the AP to send and receive wireless

signals. This port is provided only on APs that support external antennas.

2 Console Connects to a maintenance terminal for AP conguration and management.

3 GE/PoE Connects to the wired Ethernet and supports PoE input.

The AP supports the PoE power supply and DC power supply.

4 DC 12V

To connect the AP to a DC power source, use the power adapter delivered with the

AP; otherwise, the AP maybe damaged.

5 Security slot

Fasten the cable of the security lock to an immovable object around, and insert the security lock into the security slot and lock it.

Site Environment

Install the device in an environment free of high temperature, dust, unstable voltage, vibration, strong noise, and noxious,

ammable, or explosive gases or smoke, as well as free of interference sources such as large radar stations, radio stations,

and electrical substations.

Install the AP in a dry environment away from sources of water, and take protective measures to prevent water from owing

into the equipment along the cable.

Install the device in a hidden places and ensure that the device do not disturb daily work and life of residents.

Make the engineering design by fully considering such factors as climate, hydrology, geology, earthquake, electric power, and

trafc. The selected site should comply with the environment design specications of communications equipment.

Select installation positions based on the site survey. Leave at least 200 mm clearance between the outlet and the wall.

The mounted position should be able to bear four times the total weight of the device and mounting bracket. When the total

weight of the device and mounting bracket is less than 1.25 kg, the load bearing capability of the wall must be greater than or equal to 5 kg

Installing the Device

Scenario 1: Wall Mounting Scenario 2: Ceiling Mounting

When fixing the sheet metal mounting bracket, ensure that the arrows point upwards on the label.

Attach the mounting bracket against the wall and adjust its position properly. Mark positions of the mounting holes with a marker.

56 mm

Remove a ceiling tile and determine locations of mounting holes based on the distance between two installation holes on the mounting bracket. Use a hammer drill to drill holes on the ceiling tile and fasten the mounting bracket with the ceiling tile.

47 mm

Pay attention to the following points when installing external antennas:

Antennas of the outdoor APs must comply with local laws and regulations.

Antennas need to be installed by qualied personnel. An AP can only use the antennas delivered with it.

Pay attention to the following points when installing cables:

Before connecting an Ethernet cable to the AP, use the cable test tool to check whether the cable is qualied. If the cable is

unqualied, replace it.

The service network cable and PoE input cable cannot be connected to the console port.

The cable cannot exceed 100 meters.

The network cable must be a Cat5e cable or higher specications.

NOTE

The screws provided for ceiling-mounting are 30 mm long and

can be used to fix the device on a ceiling not thicker than 15

mm.To install devices on thicker ceilings, customers need to

purchase longer screws.

Align the rubber feet of the device over the mounting slots on the mounting bracket and vertically push the AP to secure it. When the spring clip is popped up, push the AP horizontally until it snaps into place (you can hear a click).

Common Errors in Network Planning

No. Error Case Analysis Corrective Action

1 Fat APs are used to achieve

large-scale wireless network coverage.

2 Antennas are deployed too

close, or electromagnetic interference exists near the antennas.

3 An indoor settled AP is deployed

in a corridor to provide wireless coverage for the six rooms on both sides of the corridor.

Fat APs are applicable only to

small-scale SOHO ofce scenarios

and cannot implement inter-AP

roaming. Therefore, Fat APs are

not recommended in large-scale coverage scenarios.

Signal interference affects data transmission.

Generally, washing rooms or compartments exist in rooms. Radio signals attenuate significantly when penetrating walls, which affects service experience. Densely deployed APs in the corridor can also lead to co-channel interference. Such a plan is not recommended.

In large-scale wireless network coverage scenarios, use the AC+Fit AP networking.

Properly control the distance between antennas. It is recommended that you comply with the following requirements:

1. Ensure that antennas are deployed no less than 7 m. In semi-open indoor areas, ensure that APs are around 20 m away from each other.

2. Deploy antennas at least 5 m away from 4G antennas.

3. Keep antennas away from electronic equipment that may cause radio interference, such as microwave ovens.

In a scenario where rooms are on both sides of the corridor, you are advised to deploy agile distributed devices or wall plate APs in the rooms to implement indoor coverage. Alternatively, you can deploy indoor settled APs in the rooms in W-shaped mode. Do not deploy indoor settled APs in two rooms facing each other on both sides of the corridor.

Align the rubber feet of the device over the mounting slots on the mounting bracket and vertically push the AP to secure it. When the spring clip is popped up, push the AP downward until it snaps into place (you can hear a click).

Scenario 3: T-rail Mounting

Remove two ceiling tiles around the T-rail, use screws to

fix the adjustable buckle to the mounting bracket, hook

the adjustable buckle to the T-rail, and secure the screw

on the adjustable buckle to fasten the mounting bracket

and T-rail.

NOTE

Before fixing the adjustable buckle with a screw, you need to

adjust the buckle to a proper position based on the T-rail width.

Installation Precautions

After the AP is installed on the mounting bracket, to further

strengthen the fastening effect, tighten an M4x30 screw on the mounting bracket.

The T-rail, or the wall, or the ceiling needs to bear the weight

of four times the total weight of the device and mounting bracket without damage.

The following figure shows the T-rail dimensions

requirements (t: thickness; w: width).

NOTE

Ensure that the device is securely installed on the mounting bracket and leave a certain space above and around the device for maintenance.

Removing an AP

Flip the spring clip on the mounting bracket and slip the AP towards the spring clip. Release the spring clip until the rubber feet of the AP enter the mounting keyholes. Remove the AP from the mounting bracket.

NOTE

If a captive screw is installed, remove the screw and then follow the preceding steps to uninstall the AP.
