Pay attention to the following points when installing cables:
Before delivery, radio interfaces of the device are covered with dust caps. Remove the dust caps before connecting the feeder
·
cables.
After the device installation is complete, cover the unused radio interfaces with dust caps.
·
Before connecting an Ethernet cable to the AP, use the cable test tool to check whether the cable is qualied. If the cable is
·
unqualied, replace it.
The network cable cannot exceed 100 meters.
·
Do not insert a service network cable into the console port.
·
NOTE
For details about cable connections, log in to Support-E and see "Cable Connection" in
of this AP model.

Hardware Installation and Maintenance
)
Install the AP in an environment free of high temperature, dust, unstable voltage, vibration, strong noise, and noxious, flammable, 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 flowing into the
·
equipment along the cable.
Install the AP in a hidden place and ensure that the AP does not disturb daily work or life of residents.
·
Make the engineering design by fully considering such factors as hydrology, geology, earthquake, electric power, and trafc. The selected
·
site should comply with the environment design specications of communications equipment.
Select installation positions based on the site survey. Leave at least 200 mm between the cabling end of the AP and the wall.
·
Installing the AP
Scenario 1: Wall Mounting Scenario 2: Ceiling Mounting
Fix the mounting bracket to the wall, adjust the installation
position, and use the marker to mark the drilling positions
where expansion screws are installed.
59mm
85mm
Use a 6 mm drill bit to drill 25 mm to 30 mm deep holes
in the drilling positions. Hammer the expansion tubes into
the holes until they are completely embedded into the
wall.

25mm~30mm
Fix a locking clip at the rear of the AP with two M3x6
screws.

NOTE
Only the AP6310SN-GN and AP7110 series require the locking
clip during their installation.
Remove a ceiling tile, 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 x the mounting bracket to
the ceiling tile.
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 office
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 2 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.
Fix the mounting bracket to the wall and use the Phillips
screwdriver to fasten three expansion screws into the
expansion tubes.
Align the mounting holes at the rear of the AP with the
ST3.5
0.3N•m
mounting screws on the mounting bracket and hang the
AP on the bracket. Press the AP downwards to secure
the AP on the wall.
35mm
1. Ceiling tile 2. Adjustable buckle 3. M4x30 screw
NOTE
The screws provided for ceiling-mounting of APs are 30 mm
long and can be used to x an AP on a ceiling not thicker than
15 mm. To install APs on thicker ceilings, you need to purchase
longer screws.
Hang the AP on the mounting screws by aligning the
mounting holes at the rear of the AP with the mounting
screws on the bracket and push the AP horizontally to
secure the AP.

Open Source Software Notice
Scenario 3: T-rail Mounting
Fix a locking clip at the rear of the AP with two M3x6
screws. For installation methods, see step 1 in Ceiling
Mounting.
NOTE
Only the AP6310SN-GN and AP7110 series require the locking
clip during their installation.
Hang the AP on the mounting holes by aligning the
mounting screws at the rear of the AP with the mounting
holes on the bracket and push the AP horizontally to
secure the AP.
NOTE
Ensure that the AP is correctly installed on the mounting bracket
and there must be 200 mm space above and around the AP for
maintenance.
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.
The Open Source Software Notice lists notices on open source software components used by the product.
