CONSOLE (EAP120/220)

The port is used to connect to the serial port of a computer or a terminal to check and monitor system information of the EAP device. CLI commands are not available in current software version. We will release a new version supporting CLI commands soon. Please pay close attention to our official website.

ETHERNET

(EAP110)The port is to connect to the POE port of the provided PoE adapter for both data transmission and power supply through Ethernet cabling.

(EAP120/220)The port is used to connect to a router or a switch to transmit data or to a PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment), such as a PoE switch, for both data transmission and Power over Ethernet (PoE) through Ethernet cabling.

Software Configuration

To quickly set up a wireless network connection with mass EAPs, please follow the steps below.

Note: The IP address of the management computer must be reachable for the EAPs in the network.

Step 1: Installing the EAP Controller

Find the EAP Controller application file from our website at www.tp-link.com. Run the file and follow the wizard to install the EAP Controller on the computer.

Step 2: Configuring the EAP Controller

Launch the EAP Controller and follow the configuration wizard to create a primary wireless network. After the wizard is finished, a login screen will appear. Enter the admin name and password you created and click Sign In.

Step 3: Adopting the EAP devices

Adopt the EAP devices in the Controller management interface to change the status from pending to connected.

For More Configurations

Now you can manage your wireless network and view network statistic using the EAP Controller. Please refer to the EAP Controller User Guide to learn more information on configuring and using the Controller software.

Option 1: Ceiling Rail Mounting

Option 2: Ceiling Mounting

Option 3: Wall Mounting

Ceiling T-rail Clip M3×6 Pan-head Screws

(Qty.5)

Position the Ceiling T-rail Clip and push the movable part toward the rail base.

Use an M3×6 pan-head screw to secure the T-rail Clip onto the ceiling rail.

Washers

(Qty.3)

Hole for Ethernet cable

M3×30 Pan-head Screws

(Qty.3)

Remove the ceiling tile.

Place the mounting bracket in the center of the ceiling tile. Mark the three positions of the screw holes and a 10mm hole for the Ethernet cable to feed through. Drill three 4mm holes and a 10mm hole for the Ethernet cable.

Wing Nuts

(Qty.3)

M3×28 Plastic Wall Anchors

(Qty.3)

98.6mm

M3×20 Self-tapping Screws

(Qty.3)

Attach the EAP to the mounting bracket by aligning ARROW 1 (on the EAP) with ARROW 2 (on the mounting bracket), then rotate the EAP clockwise until it locks into place.

Make two small pencil marks on the wall. Make sure the two marks are level and should be 98.6mm apart. Drill two 6mm holes through the center of your marks.

Attach the mounting bracket to the Ceiling T-rail Clip using four M3x6 pan-head screws.

Attach the EAP to the mounting bracket by aligning ARROW 1 (on the EAP) with ARROW 2 (on the mounting bracket), then rotate the EAP clockwise until it locks into place.

Secure the mounting bracket to the ceiling tile using three M3x30 pan-head screws, washers and wing nuts, as shown on the left.

Attach the EAP to the mounting bracket by aligning ARROW 1 (on the EAP) with ARROW 2 (on the mounting bracket), then rotate the EAP clockwise until it locks into place.

Insert the plastic wall anchors into the 6mm holes and drive the self-tapping screws into the anchors. Do not drive the screws all the way in and leave enough clearance to hang the EAP.

Hang the EAP on the screws. Make sure the EAP is firmly seated against the wall.

Connect the Ethernet cable to the ETHERNET port.
