Introduction
EAP9550 is a powerful and multi-functioned 11n Access Point and it can act three modes
AP/WDS/Universal Repeater. Smoke detector appearance will minimize visibility. So this model can
work properly at Hotel or public area.
EAP9550 is a Wireless Network device that delivers up to 6x faster speeds and 7x extended coverage
than 802.11g devices. Product’s RF performance is finely tuned so it will bring best wireless signal
for each client. EAP9550 supports home network with superior throughput, performance and
unparalleled wireless range. To protect data during wireless transmissions, EAP9550 encrypts all
wireless transmissions through WEP data encryption and supports WPA/WPA2. Its MAC address filter
allows users to select stations with access to connect network. EAP9550 thus is the best product to
ensure network quality for hotspots.

Understanding the Hardware
2.1. Hardware Installation
1 Place the unit in an appropriate place after conducting a site survey.
2 Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 port on the rear panel of the device
and another end into your PC/Notebook.
3 Insert the DC-inlet of the power adapter into the port labeled “DC-IN” and the other
end into the power socket on the wall.
4 Regarding wall mount please use Φ3.0 screw for fixing.

Modes
AP/WDS/Repeater
3.1. Access Point
In AP (Access Point) mode, your device acts as a communication hub for users with
a wireless device to connect to a wired LAN/WAN.
3.2. WDS Bridge
You can only connect to the device via Wireless Client
WDS (Wireless Distribution System) allows AP to communicate with one another
wirelessly. This capability is critical in providing a seamless experience for roaming
clients and for managing multiple wireless networks.
3.3. Universal Repeater
Repeater is used to regenerate or replicate signals that are weakened or distorted by
transmission over long distances and through areas with high levels of
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Universal Repeater (AP) mode on one radio
channel is usually configured along with Universal Repeater (STA) mode on another
radio channel.
