1 Introduction
The ip.access nano3GAP-4 is an indoor pico-class base station.
This document provides the reader with all the necessary information required to install the
ip.access nano3GAP-4. The document provides step-by-step instructions for hardware
installation, PSU Installation, and configuration steps required to bring the nano3GAP-4
into service.
The AP can be configured with a static IP address or it can obtain its IP address
dynamically via DHCP. The AP-AC connection can be configured to be secure (via IPSec)
or unsecured.
1.1 Installation Overview
The principal activities for installing and commissioning a nano3GAP are:
1) Install the nano3GAP hardware and power it up (installation engineer on site,
section 3).
Commission the nano3GAP for connecting to an AC and OMC-R (installation
2)
engineer on site, section 4).
Configure the nano3GAP from the OMC-R to bring it to into service (OAM
3)
engineer remotely from the NOC, section 5).

2 Installation Requirements
2.1 nano3GAP Site Requirements
2.1.1 nano3GAP-4 Site Requirements
The nano3GAPs are installed in retail or small office environments. In summary, each AP
will require:
• One of:
o A suitable mains power supply point within [1.5] metres of the intended AP
site.
o Power over Ethernet (where mains power is remote).
• An Ethernet connection that provides an IP address (via static addressing or via
DHCP) and a route to the public Internet. A DNS service is also required to
resolve symbolic addresses.
• Site for wall mounting or a stable free-standing position.
• Cat5 cable.
2.1.1.1 Power
Maximum expected power consumption: 13 Watts (Rated 9VDC 1450mA)
The nano3GAP-4 supports the following power and Ethernet cabling options at a site:
• Direct power from a power adapter
• Power-over-Ethernet
o from a POE switch
o from a POE inserter

The connections are shown in the figure below.
nano3GAP-4 Ethernet and power connections
The power adapter, as well as the POE inserter and splitter supplied by ip.access comply
with LPS requirements in accordance with IEC/EN 60950-1.
Power Adapter
A suitable mains power supply point into which the power adapter for the AP can be
plugged. This should be within [1.5] metres of the intended installation position of the AP.
Only use the power adapter supplied by ip.access to power the AP:
ip.access part number EPS1173R
manufactured by Dee Van Enterprise Co Ltd.
model DSA-20P-10
input 100-240V ~ 50/60Hz 0.7A
output +9VDC 1.67A
Power over Ethernet
POE comprises of a power inserter and a splitter. The power inserter is positioned close to
the Internet connection, while the splitter is positioned close to the AP.
Only use the POE inserter supplied by ip.access:
ip.access part number 109A
manufactured by PPI Co Ltd
model ILA1711112
input 100/230V ~ 60/50Hz 0.5/0.25A
output 48VDC 0.38A
