Deploying as a Fat AP
A. Drawing Power from a PoE Switch (If unavailable,
skip to Step B)
1. Connect NAP-570 to a PoE switch (any PoE port that supports
IEEE 802.3at) with an RJ-45 cable, and then connect the Uplink
port of the same PoE switch to the network adapter of a PC
with another RJ-45 cable.

B. Drawing Power from a Power Adapter (Skip this
step if Step A is done)
1. Connect NAP-570 to the network adapter of a PC with an
RJ-45 cable.
2. Connect the DC plug to NAP-570 (Warning: Use of improper
power adapter may cause damage to NAP-570 or lead to
unexpected errors. It is strongly recommended to purchase
the 12V / 1.5A power adapter directly from Nusoft.)

Deploying as a Thin AP
A. Preparing the LAC-100 AP Controller
1. Configure a PC (requires at least 2GB memory and no hard
disk drive) to boot from a USB device for LAC-100 operation.
2. Refer to
USB flash
LAC-100 USB stick from Nusoft.
3. Boot the PC that is referred in Step 1 from the LAC-100 USB
stick. Once booted, your LAC-100 AP controller is ready to go.

0 to install your AP at the desired location and then
2. To install a number of APs, it is suggested to draw the power
from an 802.3at PoE switch rather than wall outlets. When
used with the PoE feature, NAP-570 facilitates your wireless
deployment without the restraints of a wall outlet, such as the
length of power cable or the number of the outlet sockets.

C. Drawing Power from a PoE Switch (If unavailable,
skip to Step D)
1. Connect NAP-570 to a PoE switch (any PoE port that supports
IEEE 802.3at) with an RJ-45 cable, and then connect the Uplink
port of the same PoE switch to the network adapter of a PC
with another RJ-45 cable.
2. When purchasing a PoE switch, please select a model that is
equipped with sufficient PoE ports for connecting all your
NAP-570 units.

D. Drawing Power from a Power Adapter (Skip this
step if Step C is done)
1. Connect NAP-570 to the network adapter of a PC with an
RJ-45 cable.
2. Connect the DC plug to NAP-570 (Warning: Use of improper
power adapter may cause damage to NAP-570 or lead to
unexpected errors.

3. Plug the power adapter into a nearby wall outlet.
D. Modifying the Management IP Address
1. Connect the network adapters of the LAC-100 and a Windows
PC with an RJ-45 cable (tries a crossover cable in case a
straight-through cable fails). Next, run a browser to log in to
http://192.168.1.1 (default management IP address) using the
credentials admin / admin.

2. On the menu panel, click System > Configuration > Interface.
Then, specify a LAN IP address (not repeatable; this example
uses 192.168.1.10) as well as other information. After that,
click OK.

E. Enabling Wi-Fi on a Mobile Device
1. Enable Wi-Fi on your mobile device and then select the
default SSID (i.e., LAC-100) to access the Internet.
F. Renaming an AP
1. Run a browser on a LAN PC to log in to current management IP
address (modified in Step B). Next, on the menu panel, click AP
Controller > Configuration > AP Profile to rename your AP
(based on the MAC address and installed location, e.g., Lobby)
by clicking the corresponding Modify button.

Appendix A: Hardware Installation
Installing on a Drop Ceiling (Suspended
Ceiling)
A. Securing the Mounting Bracket
For ceilings that are made of calcium silicate, plywood,
gypsum board:
1. Prepare the tools needed for the drilling:
Safety glasses
Marking pen
Drill driver (or a #2 Phillips screwdriver)
2. Put on safety glasses for eye protection
3. Mark the pilot holes
a. Use the mounting bracket as a drill template to
mark the pilot holes on the ceiling.
4. Secure the self-tapping screws
