2 Introduction About the AP3935i and AP3935e AP3935 Overview Architectural Features This installation guide provides an overview and installation instructions for the ExtremeWireless Access Points AP3935i and AP3935e. About the AP3935i and AP3935e The AP3935 is designed to extend your Wireless LAN around indoor locations. The AP3935 supports the 802.11ac and 802.11n wireless standards, with full backward compatibility with legacy 802.11a, and 802.11b/g devices.
Introduction Figure 1: ExtremeWireless AP3935i Top View and Figure 2: ExtremeWireless AP3935e Top View on page 10 show the top view of each model. Figure 3: AP3935 Bottom View on page 11 shows the location of the LAN ports, console port, external power supply connector, and reset switch.The bottom panel is the same for both models, but there are no external antenna RSMA connectors on the AP3935i. Figure 4: AP3935 LEDs on page 11 illustrates the LEDs on the AP3935.

Introduction Figure 3: AP3935 Bottom View 1 Reset Button 3 LAN Ethernet Ports 1 and 2 2 Console Port 4 External Power DC 12V AP3935 LED Indicators Both models of the AP3935 have the LED indicators, shown in Figure 4: AP3935 LEDs on page 11 below. The LEDs provide status information, described in Table 3: AP3935 LED Indications on page 12, on the current state of the AP3935. For more information, see the ExtremeWireless User Guide.
Introduction Table 3: AP3935 LED Indications LED Status Description 1 (AP status) On Green Indicates the AP3935 is working normally. Flashing Green Indicates: • running a self test • loading software program On Amber Indicates a CPU/system failure. On Green Indicates a valid 10Mbps or 100Mbps Ethernet link. On Amber Indicates a valid 1Gbps Ethernet link. Off Indicates the link is down. On Green Indicates a valid 10Mbps or 100Mbps Ethernet link.
Introduction Reset Switch The AP3935 provides a Reset Switch to reset or restore factory default configurations. Use a pointed object to press the switch button through the hole. (See Figure 3: AP3935 Bottom View on page 11.) If you hold down the button for less than five seconds, the AP performs a software interrupt, causing it to drop all connections and reset.
3 Installation Unpacking the AP3935 Accessories Access Point Installation Procedures Configuring AP3935e Channel Settings This chapter provides installation instructions for the ExtremeWireless AP3935 access points and an optional AP power supply. Unpacking the AP3935 To unpack the access point: 1 Open the box and remove the packing material protecting the AP.
Installation Access Point Installation Procedures Warning Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel should install or service this unit. Riesgo Electrico: Nada mas personal capacitado debe de instalar o darle servicio a esta unida. Elektrischer Gefahrenhinweis: Installationen oder Servicearbeiten sollten nur durch ausgebildetes und qualifiziertes Personal vorgenommen werden. These procedures describe how to attach the AP3935 to a drop ceiling (flat or protruded), and how to mount the AP to a wall.
Installation 3 Slightly lift the movable T-bar locking tab to increase the space between the stationary and the movable T-bar sides of the bracket. Then hook the stationary end of the T-bar bracket onto the Tbar, as shown in Figure 7: Attaching the AP3935i on a Drop Ceiling T-bar Rail on page 16. 4 While holding the AP with one hand, reach the other hand over the T-bar and grasp both the stationary and movable sides of the bracket.
Installation 1 2 3 4 5 Determine the spot on the wall to mount the AP. Pick a spot near the ceiling, but in reach of the Ethernet cable and if you are using external power, near a wall power outlet. To mount the AP directly on the wall with two screws, use the provided template and mark the two drill holes on the wall. In drywall, the drill holes should be 6mm in diameter. Drill two holes in the wall to match the center of the two keyhole slots in the back of the AP bracket.
Installation 7 When mounting the AP on a wall or flat ceiling, a Kensington lock provides extra stability. Note The mounting bracket (30513, WS-MBI-WALL03) is optional when mounting the AP on a wall. If mounting the AP on a flat ceiling, we recommend using the mounting bracket (30513, WS-MBI-WALL03) for added security. Mounting the AP using the Optional Mounting Bracket When mounting the AP to a flat ceiling (or a wall), use the mounting bracket (30513, WS-MBI-WALL03) and two metal screws.
Installation • Power is provided through the RJ45 Ethernet port (LAN port) on the top of the AP. This is the preferred method of powering the AP on ceiling and high wall installations. Power by external power supply Where a PoE-capable Ethernet connection is unavailable or impractical, an external 12 VDC power supply may be ordered separately to power the AP from a standard AC wall outlet.
Installation • • • • Determining the Antenna Model on page 20 Configuring Radio RF Port on page 20 Configuring Radio Channel on page 23 Configuring Radio Transmit (Tx) Power on page 24 Determining the Antenna Model The professional installer needs to determine antenna models and the number of antenna ports for that model. The number of ports can be determined from visual inspection of the antenna or from the antenna model.
Installation 3 Select APs in the left pane, then in the Wireless AP list, click the Wireless AP whose properties you want to modify. The AP Properties tab displays Wireless AP information.
Installation 4 When configuring the AP3935e, click Professional Install. The Professional Install dialog displays to configure the external antennas. Figure 12: Professional Install Dialog for the AP3935e 5 Modify the Radio Antenna Type as follows: • • If attaching quad port antennas, configure all four RF ports with the same antenna type. If attaching triple port antennas, configure ports 1, 2, and 3 with the same antenna type and configure port 4 (non-active port) to No Antenna.
Installation Configuring Radio Channel 1 Click APs in the left pane, then in the Wireless AP list, click the Wireless AP whose properties you want to modify. The AP Properties tab displays Wireless AP information. 2 Click the Radio 1 tab. 3 Configure the desired Radio Mode, and Channel Width.
Installation 4 From the Request a New Channel drop-down menu, select a channel according to the site channel plan, or request the AP to auto select the channel from the channel list set in the Channel Plan setting. Figure 14: AP3935e Radio 1 Properties — Channel Plan setting 5 Repeat the process for Radio 2.
Installation 3 Click the AP button in the left pane, then in the Wireless AP list, click the Wireless AP whose properties you want to modify. The AP Properties tab displays Wireless AP information. 4 Click the Radio 1 tab. 5 Max Tx Power is automatically determined based on regulatory domain/country, antenna selected, line attenuation configured, channel and certification testing.
