Introduction

What is the WEA524i?

The Samsung WEA524i is an Access Point (AP) which has been designed for connecting a UE such as a smart phone, a tablet PC or a laptop that supports the wireless LAN to a wired network. WEA524i supports the following features:

- IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac standards

- PoE (Power over Ethernet) IEEE 802.3af/802.3at

- 4 × 4 MU-MIMO (Multi User-Multiple Input Multiple Output)

- 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz concurrent radios

Components

After unpacking the WEA524i, confirm that all of the following items have been included.

Installation Instructions

The following instructions must be carefully observed during installation.

- The system must be installed in a place that is easily accessible for product installation, cable connections, and maintenance.

- The PoE cable must be always installed away from any electrical interference source such as power lines, fluorescent lights or transmitters.

- The PoE cable must be CAT 5e or higher.

- When PoE is unavailable, a power adapter (sold separately) can be used. The 3-pin (including ground) power socket that supplies 100~240 V AC, 50~60 Hz must be located within 2 m from each equipment and the power must be supplied through an independent circuit breaker. It is recommended to use the equipment that uses a filter or a surge protector.

Installation on Ceilings (When the ceiling type is T-bar)

- When incorrectly installed on the ceiling, the WEA524i may drop onto a person or equipment. Therefore, make sure to fix it firmly.

- If the ceiling type is not T-bar, please refer to the ‘Installation Manual’ provided separately. For this installation manual, please contact the dealer.

Remove the holding tape that was attached to fix the ceiling clip.

Holding tape

Open the ceiling clip so that it is wider

than the width of the T-bar.

Move the ceiling clip so that it is appropriate for the T-bar width.

Fix the ceiling clip in place by

tightening the 4 designated screws.

Screws for fixing

the ceiling clip

Use a hammer to insert

4 plastic anchors into the drilled holes on the wall. Align the inserted plastic anchors and the screw holes of the bracket. Fix the bracket to the wall by fastening four M4 × L28 screws.

Insert a LAN cable into the Ethernet port

(PoE) on the back side of the WEA524i.

If PoE is not supported, connect the power adapter to the DC input on the back of the WEA524i.

The wall

Fix the T-bar in place by fastening

the screws (total of 2) that are on the ceiling clip.

If the T-bar size of the ceiling is 15 mm, 24 mm or 38 mm, the position to fix the ceiling clip can be checked from the bottom surface of the mount bracket. If the T-bar size is unknown, push the ceiling clip to check the fixing positions.

Pull out a LAN cable through a hole on the

ceiling and connect it to an Ethernet port (PoE) on the back side of the WEA524i.

Installing Anti-Theft Lock Cable

When installing the WEA524i in a public place, it is recommended to use anti-theft lock cables to prevent any loss. (An anti-theft lock cable can be purchased separately and a variety of products can be found in the market.)

Connect the anti-theft lock cable to the WEA524i.

Turn the lock cable key to lock the cable.

Remove the key from the lock cable and keep it in a separate location.

Using the anti-theft Torx screws

The WEA524i can be prevented from being stolen when tightening the Torx screws as shown below. (Torx screws can be easily tightening when they are fixed to the mount bracket before assembling the AP product.)

If PoE is not supported, connect the power adapter to the DC input on the back side of the WEA524i.

Align the WEA524i with the

3 holes on the mount bracket and then turn clockwise to fix it in place. Clean up the ceiling and other cables.

Installation on Walls

Remove the holding tape that was

attached to fix the ceiling clip.

Remove the ceiling clip from the mount bracket.
