Perfect for extending network coverage to outside areas, the AP 7161 brings the latest 802.11n 3x3 Multiple Input
Multiple Output (MIMO) tri-radio design together with rugged outdoor performance. True perimeter security is
provided using either a dedicated dual band sensor or software mode for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands to deliver
24x7 rogue detection and termination. The AP 7161 is optimized with WiNG 5 intelligence, extending QoS,
security, and mobility services to the Access Point to support better capacity and performance. The AP 7161 is
ideal for industrial, enterprise campus, video surveillance, public safety, and smartgrid utility deployments to
extend to the outdoors.
Deployments can be managed using the WiNG 5 architecture. The WiNG 5 architecture is a solution designed for
802.11n networking. It leverages the best aspects of independent and dependent architectures to create a smart
network that meets the connectivity, quality, and security needs of each user and their applications based on the
availability of network resources, including wired networks. WiNG 5 is a Third Generation WLAN solution which
incorporates the best of both the first generation Autonomous Access Point WLAN and the second generation
Centralized Controller Based WLAN. The AP 7161 Vehicle Mounted Modem (VMM) is a software enabled profile
within the WiNG 5 architecture that uses the same hardware as
AP 7161 infrastructure models.
The control plane is now distributed between the Access Points and the controllers. The network administrator
has the flexibility of directing the data plane either being forwarded directly from the Access Points, or via the
controllers. By distributing intelligence and control between the wireless controllers and APs, the WiNG 5
network can route directly via the best path, as determined by factors including the user, the location, the
application, and the available wireless and wired resources.
Once adopted by a RFS4000, RFS6000, RFS7000, or NX 9000 series controller, the AP 7161 is managed as an
Adaptive AP running the WiNG 5 network management protocol. WiNG 5 networks extend the current
differentiation that Adaptive APs offered to the next level by now having the services and security available at
every point in the network. The traffic flow is optimized to prevent wired congestion, as well as wireless
congestion. Traffic flows dynamically, based on user and application, and finds alternate routes to work around
any possible network choke points. Mixed-media application optimization is the hallmark of WiNG 5 networks.
Extending the indoor network to the outdoors increases the need to guard against unwanted intruders and
attackers, and monitor network performance and availability. In addition to industry standard security for clients
and radio backhaul, the AP 7161 provides true perimeter security using either a dedicated dual band sensor or
software mode in the 2.4GHz and 5Ghz bands. Concurrent around-the-clock dual band Network Assurance sensing
and wireless traffic is provided together with spectrum analysis, eliminating the need for separate devices.
An Access Point can function as a Wireless Intrusion Protection System (WIPS) sensor and upload sensor mode
operation information to a dedicated WIPS server. WIPS protects your wireless network, mobile devices, and
traffic from attacks and unauthorized access. WIPS provides tools for standards compliance and around-the-clock
802.11a/b/g wireless network security in a distributed environment. WIPS allows administrators to identify and
accurately locate attacks, rogue devices, and network vulnerabilities in real time and permits both a wired and
wireless lockdown of wireless device connections upon acknowledgment of a threat.

Capacity in video surveillance solutions is critical to the performance of many networks designed to monitor and
provide safety. To assist with the deployment of video surveillance networks where the camera application
resides, the AP 7161 offers band unlocked radio flexibility. The user can choose between 2.4Ghz, 5Ghz and 4.9Ghz
bands for the radio type. The AP 7161 supports 3x3 MIMO technology, reaching a maximum data rate of 300 Mbps
to maintain high performance and better quality of transmission.
The AP 7161 is designed to optimize network availability through preemptive intelligence which dynamically
senses weak or failing signals, securely moves mobile users to alternate APs, and boosts signal power to
automatically fill RF holes and ensure uninterrupted mobile user access.
The AP 7161 band unlocked radios allow flexibility and deployment options for the public safety market. The
powerful radio increases coverage, performance, and obstruction penetration for outdoor use. Receiver sensitivity
is increased proportionally so users have an increased ability to maintain high performance access for mobility
and client devices in the network.

2.4 AP 7161 Power Options Using Power over Ethernet
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is the power source for an AP 7161 Access Point. For optimal performance, an AP 7161
can be powered by the following injectors and RFS controllers that support 802.AT PoE.
For installations requiring an outdoor PoE injector, the following options are recommended:
• AP-PSBIAS-7161-US
• AP-PSBIAS-7161-WW
The AP-PSBIAS-7161 is a 1-Port 802.3at PoE Gigabit Ethernet injector. The injector is IP66 rated for outdoor
deployments when used with the weatherproof kit supplied.
There are two power cord options for the AP-PSBIAS-7161 models. The AP-PSBIAS-7161-US comes equipped with
a cable with a standard three prong power plug. This plug can be removed by the installer if required when
connecting to an AC source. The AP-PSBIAS-7161-WW comes equipped with a cable with open leads. Mounting
kits are not supplied (see
numbers).
Outdoor PoE Hardware and Mounting Accessories on page 11 for mounting kit part
NOTEProduct installation and mounting instructions are provided with the outdoor power
injector. Refer to the AP-PSBIAS-7161 Install Guide.
If located within 100 meters of the controller and a PoE port is available, the AP 7161 Access Point can also be
connected directly to one of the following controllers:
•RFS4000
•RFS6000
•RFS7000
•NX9000
•NX95xx
A standard CAT5E cable can be used to provide the connection to the AP 7161. The GE1/POE port on the AP 7161
is where the standard CAT5E cable will connect to the Access Point and use of the weatherproof RJ45 plug kit
that comes with the unit will maintain a weatherproof seal for outdoor installation at the ethernet port.
If a CAT5E cable is used to connect the Access Point to an RFS controller through a building egress, a suitable
lightning protection system should be considered. A professional installer should be consulted to identify an
appropriate system.
CAUTIONWhen using controllers, the total power limits for the AP 7161 must be considered.
The two radio configuration draws less power than a three radio configuration. If
sufficient power is not available, the AP 7161 software will disable the third radio
and throttle back performance on all radio and Ethernet interfaces.

2.5 AP 7161 VMM Power Options
The AP 7161 Vehicle Mounted Modem (VMM) is a software enabled profile within the WiNG5 architecture that
uses the same hardware as AP 7161 infrastructure models (see
mounted AP 7161 operating as a
VMM within a vehicle or mobile asset requires a power source delivered via
Power over Ethernet (PoE). The same requirements and guidelines for Access Point power are in force as noted in
this installation manual. Refer to
Specifications on page 59 for operating voltage and operating current.
An AP 7161 operating as a VMM has the capability of being installed into a variety of vehicular and mobile
environments. As such, a professional certified installation partner should be consulted on appropriate power
sources and installation into a vehicle or mobile asset. A vehicular power source is not provided. No responsibility
is taken for any power source design operated outside of the allowed specifications for power of an AP 7161

3Basic Access Point Configuration
Once the Access Point is installed and powered on, complete the following steps to get the device up and running
and access management functions:
1.Attach an Ethernet cable from the Access Point to a controller with an 802.3af compatible power source
or use the PWRS-14000-148R power supply to supply power to the AP 7181 (once fully cabled).
If your host system is a DHCP server, an IP address is automatically assigned to the AP 7181 and can be
used for device connection. However, if a DHCP server is not available, you’ll need to derive the IP address
from the AP MAC address. Using this method, the last two bytes of the MAC address become the last two
octets of the IP address. For example:
MAC address - 00:C0:23:00:F0:0A
Zero-Config IP address - 169.254.240.10
To derive the Access Point’s IP address using its MAC address:
a. Open the Windows calculator be selecting Start > All Programs > Accessories > Calculator. This menu
path may vary slightly depending on your version of Windows.
b. With the Calculator displayed, select View > Scientific. Select the Hex radio button.
c. Enter a hex byte of the Access Point’s MAC address. For example, F0.
2.Select the Dec radio button. The calculator converts F0 into 240. Repeat this process for the last Access
Point MAC address octet.Point the Web browser to the Access Point’s IP address. The following login
screen displays:

6.1 FCC Approval Statement
Federal Communications Commission
Office of Engineering and Technology
Laboratory Division
Interim Plans to Approve UNII Devices Operating in the 5470 - 5725 MHz Band with Radar Detection
and DFS Capabilities
The FCC, NTIA, FAA and industry are working to resolve interference to Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR)
systems used near airports that has occurred from some outdoor wireless systems operating in the 5470 MHz –
5725 MHz band. These wireless devices are subject to Section 15.407 of our rules and when operating as a
master device they are required to implement radar detection and DFS functions. We are continuing our work to
develop long-term equipment authorization test procedures that will ensure that the devices comply with our rules
that include protecting the TDWR operations. In the interim, the Commission will now allow certification of
wireless master devices with radar detection function and with DFS capability, if they meet the following
conditions:
1. Devices will not transmit on channels which overlap the 5600 – 5650 MHz band.1
2. Devices intended for outdoor use will be further restricted, as follows:
•Devices must be professionally installed when operating in the 5470 – 5725 MHz band.2
•Grantees must provide owners, operators and all such installers with specific instructions in their user’s
manual on requirements to avoid interference to TDWRs and information that meets the following
instructions:
•Any installation of either a master or a client device within 35 km of a TDWR location shall be separated
by at least 30 MHz (center-to-center) from the TDWR operating frequency 3, 4, and 5.
1 The devices subject to the requirements in this KDB can select the initial channel for operation to avoid TDWRs
and apply the Uniform Channel Spreading requirements (see FCC 06-96 in ET Docket 03-122 released June 30,
2006) on the remaining available frequency band of operation. All the other test procedures including the test
Page 64
64AP 7161 Access Point
radar patterns remain the same at the present time. A revision to the measurement procedure with modification
to the Uniform Channel Spreading requirement and other changes will be released in the future. The
Commission will also address the issue of any field upgrade option at that time.
2 The grantee must identify the specific expertise and the training required by the installers for installing these
types of devices.
3 In some instances it is possible that a device may be within 35 km of multiple TDWRs. In this case the device
must ensure that it avoids operation within 30 MHz for each of the TDWRs. This requirement applies even if the
master is outside the 35 km radius but communicates with outdoor clients which may be within the 35 km
radius of the TDWRs.
4 The requirement for ensuring 30 MHz frequency separation is based on the best information available to date. If
interference is not eliminated, a distance limitation based on line-of-sight from TDWR will need to be used. In
addition, devices with bandwidths greater than 20 MHz may require greater frequency separation.
• Procedures for the installers and the operators on how to register the devices in the industry-sponsored
database with the appropriate information regarding the location and operation of the device and installer
information is included.
• Devices must meet all of the other requirements specified in Section 15.407, and it is prohibited to include
configuration controls (e.g. country code settings or other options to modify DFS functions) to change the
frequency of operations to any frequency other than those specified on the grant of certification for US
operation.
• All applications for equipment authorization must clearly show compliance with all of the technical
requirements under worst case parameters, under user or operator control, based on frame rates, listen/talk
ratios and user data transfer conditions.
All the devices subject to the DFS requirements must be submitted to the Commission’s Laboratory Division for
pre-grant testing and equipment authorization.8 The applicant must ensure that all equipment authorization
applications subject to this interim procedure include appropriate attestations that the device has no option to
change the DFS parameters and that transmissions are disabled at least in the 5600 – 5650 MHz band. The
application must include the user’s manual with the appropriate installation and operations requirements for the
installers and operators.
We are continuing to evaluate additional measures that may need to be taken to further ensure against
interference caused by 5 GHz outdoor wireless systems located near airports. While manufacturers have an
obligation to ensure that their equipment complies with FCC rules, and must take steps to ensure their devices are
unlikely to cause harmful interference, Section 15.5 of the Commission’s rules also places an obligation on users
of devices to avoid causing interference and to correct any interference that may occur.
We encourage the manufacturers to include information for the users, including the operators and installers, to
ensure that they understand that it is incumbent on them to cooperate with manufacturers to implement any
changes necessary to facilitate compliance.

Installation Guide65
5 Devices may be optionally designed not to transmit on channels which overlap 5570 – 5680 MHz instead of
requiring installers to perform site-by-site adjustments. In that case it is still required that the devices should be
installed professionally and the procedures for registering the device in the industry database should be
included in the Users Manual.
6 When devices are deployed for mobility, do not assign frequencies of 5580 MHz and 5670 MHz.
7 A voluntary WISPA sponsored database has been developed that allows operators and installers to register the
location information of the UNII devices operating outdoors in the 5470 – 5725 MHz band within 35 km of any
TDWR location (see http://www.spectrumbridge.com/udia/home.aspx). This database may be used by
government agencies in order to expedite resolution of any interference to TDWRs.
8 For example, device software must not have any country code options or software configuration settings which
allow an end user to modify the DFS operation or impact the performance of DFS. See KDB 594280.
9 The TCBs are not permitted to approve transmitters with radar detection capabilities. See KDB 628591.
10 The manufacturers may consider taking steps providing clear instructions to operators and installers of devices
as to the need to comply with rules for use of the band, guidance on registration of devices and any other
processes that are designed to avoid interference. They may use methods that include, but are not limited to,
instructions in manuals, notification on product web pages and service bulletins issued for products in the
field.
