Introduction

1 Introduction

The Motorola RFS4011 Series Integrated Services Controller is a member of Motorola’s RFS Series Integrated Services Controller family. The RFS4011 provides centralized Wireless LAN (WLAN) configuration and management by coalescing a network “intelligence” previously spread across physically distributed access points. The RFS4011 simplifies deployment of a Wired/Wireless

802.11 a/b/g/n network, for a SME/SMB. With the integrated Layer 2/Layer 3 Networking Services such as integrated Layer 2 Switching with PoE+ ports, Onboard DHCP Server, Security Services like Wired/Wireless Firewall, Wireless IDS/IPS, Onboard AAA Server and IPSEC VPN Gateway, and QoS mechanisms to support Voice & Video , the RFS4011 transforms the enterprise by delivering a SMART Branch. The RFS4011 is the WLAN’s point of management reducing wireless networking complexity by moving management out of the ceiling and into the wiring closet. The RFS4011 can adopt up to 36 Adaptive APs or 6 Thin Access Points. The RFS4011 has integrated dual 802.11n radios, that are band unlocked, to provide access in both 2.4GHz and 5GHz simultaneously, or provide access in either band with the second radio capable of doing 24 by 7 security monitoring in both bands.

RFS4011 Series Integrated Services Controller: Installation Guide

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 or on a desktop with adequate dimensions and weight allowances.

• Verify the unit is grounded before connecting it to the power source.

• Verify any device connected to this unit is properly wired and grounded.

• Connect all power cords to a properly wired and grounded electrical circuit.

• Verify the electrical circuits have appropriate overload protection.

• Motorola strongly recommends the use of an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) that supports the RFS4011 Series

Integrated Services Controller power rating. Not using a UPS can result in data loss or equipment damage due to a power surge or power failure.

• 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.

• This product is designed for in building installation only and is not intended to be connected to exposed (outside

plant) networks.

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, as required.

• 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 RFS4011 Series Integrated Services Controller is powered through an Uninterruptible Power Supply

(UPS).

2.2 Power Cord Specifications

A power supply is included, however a power cord is not supplied with the controller. 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 RFS4011 Series Integrated Services Controller.

• 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 RFS4011 Series Integrated Services Controller has eight status LEDs on its front panel. Four LEDs for the system, fan, and temperature status, and 2 each per radio to show access (per band) or sensor operation. Each of the six Gigabit Ethernet Ports have two status LEDs. These LEDs display two colors (green & amber), and three lit states (solid, blinking, and off). Five of the Gigabit Ethernet Ports also support Power over Ethernet (PoE) and have corresponding PoE LEDs.The following tables decode the combinations of LED colors and states for the System Status, Radio and the Gigabit Ethernet and PoE LEDs.
