2 Hardware Installation

2.1 Installation Instructions
An AP-8132 access point mounts either on a wall (with M4 x 25 pan head screws and wall anchor - or equivalent) or on a suspended ceiling T-bar.
Once the AP-8132 is installed with facade and cabled, the cables (Ethernet and module connections) should not be visible when looking directly at the unit (ceiling and wall mounts).
To prepare for the installation:
1. Match the model number on the purchase order with the model numbers in the packing list and on the case of the access point.
2. Verify the contents of the box include the intended AP-8132 access point, and the included hardware matches the package contents on page 4.
Part Number Description
AP-8132-66040-US 802.11n 3x3:3 access point dual radio US version
AP-8132-66040-WR 802.11n 3x3:3 access point dual radio non-US (rest of world) version
AP-8132-66040-EU 802.11n 3x3:3 access point dual radio European version

4. Connect a CAT-5 or better Ethernet cable to a compatible 802.3at or 802.3af power source and run the cable to the installation site. Ensure there is sufficient slack on the cable to perform the installation steps.
When operating in a Gigabit Ethernet environment, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable
NOTE
is recommended for Gigabit operation.
2.2 Precautions
Before installing an AP-8132 model Access Point, verify the following:
• Your using the correctly rated power solution for the AP-8132 (either the AP-PSBIAS-2P3-ATR power injector or the PWRS-14000-247R external power supply)
• Do not to install the AP-8132 in wet or dusty areas.
• Verify the environment has a continuous temperature range between 0° C to 50° C.
2.3 Access Point Placement
For optimal performance, install the access point away from transformers, heavy-duty motors, fluorescent lights, microwave ovens, refrigerators and other industrial equipment. Signal loss can occur when metal, concrete, walls

or floors block transmission. Install the access point in an open area or add access points as needed to improve coverage.
Antenna coverage is analogous to lighting. Users might find an area lit from far away to be not bright enough. An area lit sharply might minimize coverage and create dark areas. Uniform antenna placement in an area (like even placement of a light bulb) provides even, efficient coverage.
Place the access point using the following guidelines:
• Install the access point at an ideal height of 10 feet from the ground.
• Orient the access point antennas vertically for best reception (applies to external antenna models only).
To maximize the access point’s radio coverage area, conduct a site survey to define and document radio interference obstacles before installing the access point.
2.4 Power Injector System
An AP-8132 model access point can receive power via an Ethernet cable connected to the GE1/POE (LAN) port.
When users purchase a WLAN solution, they often need to place access points in obscure locations. In the past, a dedicated power source was required for each access point in addition to the Ethernet infrastructure. This often required an electrical contractor to install power drops at each access point location. The Power Injector merges power and Ethernet into one cable, reducing the burden of installation and allowing optimal access point placement in respect to the intended coverage area.
CAUTION Using a non-compliant injector, or an injector supporting legacy modes
CAUTION Do not plug in the AP-PSBIAS-2P3-ATR Power Injector into the access
The AP-8132’s supported Power Injector (Part No. AP-PSBIAS-2P3-ATR) is a high power POE Injector delivering up to 30 watts. The access point can only use a Power Injector when connecting the unit to the access point’s GE1/POE port. The Power Injector is separately ordered and not shipped with an existing AP SKU.
The access point Power Supply (Part No. PWRS-14000-247R) is not included with the access point and is orderable separately as an accessory. If the access point is provided both POE power and PWRS-14000-247R power concurrently, the access point will source power from the PWRS-14000-247R supply only. Disconnecting AC power from the PWRS-14000-247R, causes the access point to re-boot before sourcing power from the POE power injector. If the AP is operating using injector supplied power, the AP will not automatically reboot if an AC adapter is connected. The access point continues to operate with power supplied from the AC adapter without change to the access point operating configuration. If using AC adapter supplied power and a change to the AP’s operating configuration is warranted, the access point needs to be manually rebooted by the customer.

source. However, using the wrong solution (including a POE system used on a legacy access point) could either limit functionality or severely damage the access point and void the product warranty.
The Power Injector can be installed free standing, on an even horizontal surface or wall mounted using the power injector’s wall mounting key holes. The following guidelines should be adhered to before cabling the Power Injector to an Ethernet source and an access point:
• Do not block or cover airflow to the Power Injector.
• Keep the Power Injector away from excessive heat, humidity, vibration and dust.
• The Power Injector isn’t a repeater, and does not amplify the Ethernet signal. For optimal performance, ensure the Power Injector is placed as close as possible to the data port.

3 Basic Access Point Configuration

Once the AP-8132 is installed and powered on, complete the following steps to get the access point up and running and access management functions:
1. The access point’s IP address is optimally provided using DHCP. A zero config IP address can also be derived if DHCP resources are unavailable. Using zero config, the last two octets in the IP address are the decimal equivalent of the last two bytes in the access point’s hardcoded MAC 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 by 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.
d. Select the Dec radio button. The calculator converts F0 into 240. Repeat this process for the last
access point MAC address octet.
2. Point the Web browser to the access point’s IP address. The following login screen displays:
3. Enter the default username admin in the Username field.
4. Enter the default password admin123 in the Password field.
