Chapter 1 Product Description This chapter describes the hardware components of the MWS series wireless access point.
Chapter 1: Product Description Overview The MWS series access point is designed to accommodate traffic-intensive applications such as multimedia streaming. The access point is equipped with one or two PoE+ capable LAN ports. With the power supply unit with the DC jack, the PoE+ LAN port provides a redundant power supply system to help uninterrupted operations. This device can be mounted on a ceiling or wall. The MWS series access point can be installed on a ceiling, wall, or tabletop.
MWS Series Access Point Installation Guide AT-MWS2533AP Model The AT-MWS2533AP model is a dual band access point with two PoE+ LAN ports, which can drain power from the connected PoE+ switch. The access point is illustrated in Figure 3. Figure 3. The Top Panel of the AT-MWS2533AP Model The front side of the AT-MWS2533AP model is illustrated in Figure 4. DC Jack LAN Ports Reset button Figure 4.
Chapter 1: Product Description Features This section lists the main features of the MWS series access points. Hardware Features The hardware features for the MWS series access points are listed here: Dual radio: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz IEEE 802.3 (10Base-T), IEEE 802.3u (100Base-TX), and IEEE 802.
MWS Series Access Point Installation Guide Management Features Maximum capacity 2.4 GHz: 800Mbps (when using 256QAM modulation scheme) Maximum capacity 5 GHz: 1.
Chapter 1: Product Description LAN Port The AT-MWS600AP and AT-MWS1750AP models are equipped with one PoE+ LAN port; The AT-MWS2533AP model is equipped with two PoE+ LAN ports. The LAN port connects the access point to your Local Area Network (LAN), typically through an Ethernet switch. Together with the power supply unit, the LAN port provides a redundant power system. For more information, see “Redundant Power Supply” on page 20.
MWS Series Access Point Installation Guide Automatic MDIX Detection The 10/100/1000 Mbps twisted-pair port is IEEE 802.3ab compliant and features automatic MDIX detection when operating at 10 or 100 Mbps. (Automatic MDIX detection does not apply to 1000 Mbps.) This feature automatically configures the port to MDI or MDI-X depending on the wiring configuration of the port on the Ethernet switch. You may not disable automatic MDIX detection.
Chapter 1: Product Description Redundant Power Supply The MWS series access point offers a redundant power supply system. In addition to the power supply through the DC jack, the access point has one or two PoE+ capable LAN ports. When the power supply unit on the access point fails, it switches to the PoE+ port to drain power. AT-MWS600AP and AT-MWS1750AP Power Supplies The AT-MWS600AP and AT-MWS1750AP access points are equipped with one PoE+ capable LAN port.
