IV Office 1-2-3 Deployment Once you have completed the setup wizard outlined in Quick Setup, you will have to determine how you will deploy your Office 1-2-3 Access Points. 1. Install the Master AP in a less crowded area. This will reduce the loading of the Master AP. Due to the fact that the Master AP being the controller of the network, having a reduced loading will benefit.
2. Install the slave APs in more crowded areas. Since the APs will only be extending the Wi-Fi signals (no need to manage the network), they can be installed where connections are in greater demand. The distance between the Master AP and the Slave APs is recommended to be between 20-25 meters. 3. Install Master/Slave AP Hardware on the POE switch. Connect a PoE switch to the Master and Slave AP’s LAN 1 (PoE) port using an Ethernet cable.
