• One RJ45, 10/100/1000Mb Ethernet port (GE2)
• IP67 Connectors on all ports
•LEDs: 4 (see Figure 1)
•One Reset button
• Power: PoE 802.3af or 802.3at

Verifying the AP-7662i/e Box Contents
Verify the contents of the box and ensure that the following items are
available:
Mounting and Connecting the AP
Use these instructions as guidelines for mounting and connecting the AP-
7662i/e easily and safely.
The AP-7662i/e mounting brackets are sold separately.
For more information about installing the optional bracket and the adapter,
see the ExtremeWireless AP-7662i/e Installation Guide.
For installation videos of the AP, see www.extremenetworks.com/support/
Mounting the AP-7662i/e
Use these instructions as guidelines for mounting and connecting the AP-
7662i/e easily and safely. The installation of the AP-7662i/e should be
performed by a professional installer to ensure proper operation and
compliance with local safety guidelines.
Attach the AP-7662i/e to a surface that can support the AP and in an
environment it can withstand. It can be mounted to a wall, girder, ceiling, or
pole, and the surface material can be concrete, brick, wood, metal, or plastic.
Positioning the AP for Installation
Mount the AP so that the glands are on the side of the AP closest to the
ground, and not above the plastic cover. You must provide a 3-inch drip loop
on all cables.
Attach the Ground Wire
Use the M4 ground screw assembly, with the star washer, to attach the
ground wire’s ring terminal to the back of the AP. The wire should be as close
to the AP bottom as possible. Tighten the screw to a torque of 13.0-13.5 in-
lbs.

1 Cloud Quick Start Card
The following hardware is included:
1 M4 screw assembly with star washer
1 Ring terminal
Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel should perform
installation procedures.
Note: Do not remove the dust cap until you need to install the BLE/
IoT antennas.
Note: Attach the H bracket after attaching the ground wire onto the
AP. Tighten the torque, tighten the screws, and attach the LAN
cable.
Mounting the AP-7662i/e to a Wall
1 Using the mounting bracket as a guide, mark the location for the
mounting screws. The wall bracket provides eight attachment holes. Use
four (one in each corner). Place the bracket and mark the four hole
centers.
2 Drill four holes into the wall as follows:
– for installing the AP on a masonry wall, use a 5/16” diameter bit.
– for other materials, use the appropriate drill for the screws being used.
3 For masonry installations, drill at least 1/8” (3mm) past the depth of the
screw, or bolt, being used, and place four anchor assemblies into the
holes.
4 Attach the AP to the “H” Bracket:
a Use four M4 screw assemblies to attach the AP to the “H” bracket on
the side that does not have the PEM stand-offs.
b Tighten the four screws to a torque of 13.0-13.5 in-lbs.
Figure 3 Attaching the “H” Bracket to the AP
5 Secure the anchors to the wall, then secure the bracket to the anchors.
6 If using #10 screws, tighten them to a torque of 25 in-lbs. If using ¼”
screws, tighten them to 45 in-lbs.

Mounting the AP-7662i/e to a Pole
Note: The “H” type Mounting Bracket (WS-MBO-H01) is sold as a
separate accessory (ordering part #30519).
Note: The Pole Mounting Bracket (WS-MBO-POLE01) is sold as a
separate accessory (ordering part #30520).
1 Determine the diameter of the pole.
For other pole diameters, provide your own stainless steel cable clamp.
The band must be ½” (12.7mm) wide.
2 Attach the AP to the “Pole Mount” bracket using 4 M4 screws. Tighten the
four screws to a torque of 13.0-13.5 in-lbs.
Figure 6 Attaching a Pole Bracket to the AP
3 Attach the cable clamp to the pole bracket. Open the cable clamp by
turning a flat bladed screwdriver counterclockwise. Then, insert the non-
clamp end into the pole bracket through the holes.
4 Put the metal band around the pole and insert it into the clamp. Turn the
clamp screw clockwise, tightening the band around the pole.

Mounting the AP-7662i/e to a Wall/Pole using
the WS-MBO-ART01 2 Axis Extension Arm
You can mount the to AP-7662i/e to a wall or a pole using a 10” extension arm
(WS-MBO-ART01, ordering part #30514). For mounting and installation
instructions, refer to the ExtremeWireless AP-7662i/e Installation Guide.
Installing External Antennas
1 Professionally install the external antennas intended for area coverage.
For information about antenna selection and installation, refer to the
External Antenna Site Preparation and Installation Guide.
2 Attach the external antenna cables to the Standard Polarity Type-N
connectors on the AP-7662i/e.
Connecting a Power Supply to the AP-7662i/e
If you need to power the AP-7662i/e, you can do so my using the GE1 port on
the AP. The power LED on the front face of the AP illuminates when the device
is powered on. Refer to the ExtremeWireless AP-7662i/e Installation Guide for
more information.
LAN/Console Connections
The AP-7662i/e has two LAN (Ethernet) ports and a Console port. Refer to
Figure 1 and Figure 2 for the location of these ports. During administration and
maintenance through the LAN or Console, the AP must still have a power
connection through either an Ethernet PoE cable or a DC power supply.
Pole Diameter Cable Clamp Size
<= 2.5” (63.5mm) Use small cable clamp.
5” - 7” (178mm) Use large cable clamp
Note: It is easier to install both clamps before attaching to the pole.
