2.2 Precautions
Before installing an AP-7622 Access Point, verify the following:
• Your are using the correctly rated power solution for the AP-7622
AP-PSBIAS-2P3-ATR PWR INJECTOR: SINGLE PORT
HI-PWR 802.3AT
PWR SPLY:100-240 VAC, 12VDC,
1.0A min, 2.5mm barrel, center
positive, maximum operating
temperature at least 40°C
• Do not to install the AP-7622 in wet or dusty areas.
• Verify the environment has a continuous temperature range between 32° F to 104°
(0-40°C).
• This product is intended for indoor use only.
AC/DC Power Supply
.
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.
Install the Access Point at an ideal height of 10 feet from the ground.
To maximize the Access Point’s radio coverage area, recommends conducting a site survey
to define and document radio interference obstacles before installing the Access Point.
2.4 Power Injector System
An AP-7622 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 will not allow the AP-7622 to function at
optimum performance levels.
CAUTION Do not plug the AP-PSBIAS-2P3-ATR Power Injector into
the Access Point’s Console port. Connecting the Power
Injector into the console port can damage the port and
void the AP-7622’s product warranty.
AP-PSBIAS-2P3-ATR Power Injector is a high power POE Injector delivering up to 30 watts.
The
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’s Power Supply is not included with the Access Point and is orderable
separately as an accessory. Disconnecting the AC power from the PWRS-14000-148R 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.
CAUTION The Access Point supports any standards-based
compliant power 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.
10 AP-7622 Access Point
!
A separate Power Injector is required for each AP-7622 Access Point comprising the network.
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.
CAUTION To avoid problematic performance and restarts, disable
POE from a wired switch port connected to an Access
Point if mid-span power sourcing equipment (PSE) is
used between the two, regardless of the manufacturer of
the switch.
