Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
1. Reo
rient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio technician for help.
FCC Caution
To assure continued compliance, use only shielded interface cables when connecting to computer or
peripheral devices. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference
(2) This
Device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.

Fully Support of Wireless Security Encryption
In aspect of security, besides 64/128-bit WEP encryption, the WDAP-C7400 integrates WPA / WPA2, WPA-PSK
/ WPA2-PSK and 802.1x Radius authority to secure and protect your wireless LAN. It provides the wireless MAC
filtering and SSID broadcast control to consolidate the wireless network security and prevent unauthorized
wireless connection.
Unique & Ceiling Mountable Design
Featuring attractive flying saucer appearance and ceiling mountable design, the WDAP-C7400 can be firmly
adsorbed on the ceiling or the wall, which is easy and convenient in client-side installation. Its streamlined body
without the protruding antennas also gives effects of embellishment in the surroundings.
Wireless Coverage Plus !
The WDAP-C7400 is built-in with high power amplifier and 3 high sensitivity dual-band antennas which provide
stronger signal and excellent coverage even in the wider range or bad environment. With adjustable transmit
power option, the administrator can flexibly reduce or increase the output power to apply various environments.
Thus it is smart and powerful wireless solution for the needs of large indoor space wireless network.

Chapter 4. Quick Installation Guide
This chapter will show you how to configure the basic functions of your AP within minutes.
A computer with wired Ethernet connection to the Wireless AP is required for the first-time
configuration.
4.1 Manual Network Setup - TCP/IP Configuration
The default IP address of the WDAP-C7400 is 192.168.1.253. And the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0.
These values can be changed as you want. In this guide, we use all the default values for description.
Connect the WDAP-C7400 with your PC by an Ethernet cable plugging in LAN port on one side and in LAN port
of PC on the other side. Please power on the WDAP-C7400 by PoE switch through the PoE port.
In the following sections, we’ll introduce how to install and configure the TCP/IP correctly in Windows 7. And the
procedures in other operating systems are similar. First, make sure your Ethernet Adapter is working, and refer
to the Ethernet adapter manual if needed.
4.1.1 Configuring the IP Address Manually
Summary:
Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC.
Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx (if the default IP address of the
WDAP-C7400 is 192.168.1.253, and the DSL router is 192.168.1.254, the "xxx" can be configured to
any number from 1 to 252), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0.
1 Select Use the following IP address radio button, and then configure the IP address of the PC.
2 For example, as the default IP address of the WDAP-C7400 is 192.168.1.253 and the DSL router is
192.168.1.254, you may choose from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.252.
