1 Introduction
The RFS7000 Series provides centralized Wireless LAN (WLAN) configuration and management by coalescing a
network “intelligence” previously spread across physically distributed access points. The RFS7000 Series is a
WLAN’s single point of contact, thus reducing wireless networking complexity by moving management out of the
ceiling and into the wiring closet. In addition, through the use of patented Virtual AP architecture, the RFS7000
Series lets you create multiple WLANs without changing or adding to the existing wired network infrastructure.
This document is written for the network device installer.
1.1 Package Contents
Inspect the package contents and report any missing or damaged items to your sales representative. The package
should contain the following:
• RFS7010 with Rack Brackets installed
• Console Cable
• Installation Guide (this document)
• China RoHS compliance document
1.2 Document Conventions
The following graphical alerts are used in this document to indicate notable situations:
NOTE Tips, hints, or special requirements that you should take note of.
CAUTION Care is required. Disregarding a caution can result in data loss or
equipment malfunction.
WARNING!Indicates a condition or procedure that could result in personal injury or
equipment damage.
1.3 Warnings
• Read all installation instructions and site survey reports, and verify correct equipment installation before connecting the system to its
power source.
• Remove jewelry and watches before installing this equipment.
• Install the equipment in a rack with adequate dimensions and weight allowances.
• Verify the rack is anchored and cannot tip over or break away from its mountings.
• Verify the unit is grounded before connecting it to the power source.
• Verify any device connected to this unit is properly wired and grounded.
6 RFS7000 Series
• Connect all power cords to a properly wired and grounded electrical circuit.
• Verify the electrical circuits have appropriate overload protection.
• Attach only approved power cords to the device.
• Verify that the power connector and socket are accessible at all times during the operation of the equipment.
• Do not work with power circuits in dimly lit spaces.
• Do not install this equipment or work with its power circuits during thunderstorms or other weather conditions that could cause a
power surge.
• Verify there is adequate ventilation around the device, and ambient temperatures meet equipment operation specifications.
1.4 Site Preparation
• Consult your site survey and network analysis reports to determine specific equipment placement, port capacity, power drops, and so
on.
• Assign installation responsibility to the appropriate personnel.
• Identify where all installed components are located.
• Verify appropriate rack mounting requirements.
• Provide a sufficient number of power drops for your equipment.
• Ensure adequate, dust-free ventilation to all installed equipment.
• Identify and prepare Ethernet and console port connections.
• Verify that cable lengths are within the maximum allowable distances for optimal signal transmission.
• Verify that the RFS7000 Series is powered through an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).

2.2 Power Cord Specifications
A power cord is not supplied. Use only a correctly rated power cord certified (as appropriate) for the country of
operation
.
2.2.1 Power Protection
• If possible, use a circuit dedicated to data processing equipment. Commercial electrical contractors
are familiar with wiring for data processing equipment and can help with the load balancing of these circuits.
• Install surge protection. Be sure to use a surge protection device between the electricity source and the
RFS7000 Series.
• Install an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). A UPS provides continuous power during a power
outage. Some UPS devices have integral surge protection. UPS equipment requires periodic maintenance to
ensure reliability. A UPS of the proper capacity for the data processing equipment must be purchased.

3 LED Codes
The RFS7010 has four vertically-stacked LEDs on its front panel. Each of the Gigabit Ethernet ports have two
status LEDs. These LEDs display two colors (green & amber), and three lit states (solid, blinking, and off). The
following tables decode the combinations of LED colors and states for the System Status LEDs and the Gigabit
Ethernet LEDs.
