security information about connected APs.See the Alcatel AOS-W User

Guide for more information.

Air Vents

These vents promote proper air circulation for cooling the device. Do not allow

these vents to be obstructed by mounting equipment, network cables, or any

other material.

FE Ports

The ENET0 and ENET1 ports attach the OmniAccess OAW-AP70 to a

10Base-T/100Base-TX (twisted-pair) Ethernet LAN segment. Both ports

support Power over Ethernet (POE). ENET0 also supports Serial Over Ethernet

(SOE).

USB Ports

This port is used to connect the AP to a host computer to support application

specific functionality and for future applications in the RF environment such as

RFID tracking or spectrum analysis.

DC Power Socket

This socket is used to connect the optional AC power adapter (not included). If

POE is being used to supply power to the OmniAccess OAW-AP70, the power

adapter is not necessary.

B/G Antenna Jack

This jack allows users to connect an external 802.11b or g antenna.

A Antenna Jack

This jack allows users to connect an external 802.11a antenna.

Kensington Security Slot

This slot is compatible with a Kensington MicroSaver Security Cable (not

included) which can be used to prevent the unauthorized removal of the

OmniAccess OAW-AP70 from its installed location. To secure the OmniAccess

OAW-AP70, wrap a security cable around an immovable object, insert the

cable’s lock into the Kensington Security Slot, and turn the key.

To use Kensington Security Slot while the Alcatel AP70 is mounted by the

mounting slots, the fold-out internal antenna must be in an open position.
