Power Source
Description
Power over Ethernet
(PoE)
Redundant power is provided through the RJ45
Ethernet ports (LAN ports, Figure 2, items #4
and #5) of AP510e, compliant to be powered
with 802.3af and provide full functionality with
802.3at. This is the preferred method of
powering the AP on ceiling and high wall
installations.
External 12V DC power
supply (optional; ordering
part #37219 - PWR 12VDC,
3A, 2.5mm x 5.5mm
connector)
The AP510e can also be powered by an external
DC power supply plugged into an AC source.
Plug the supply’s input jack into the 12V DC
(Figure 2, item #2) port.
Note: PoE is disabled when external power supply is used.

Verifying the AP510e 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 AP510e easily and
safely.
The AP510e comes with a Mounting Bracket (#37201) that can be used to mount the AP
on a flat t-bar with flat ceiling tiles, flat surfaces, beams, and some junction/gang boxes.
An adaptor and brackets are available for mounting the AP to non-flat ceiling tiles and t-
bars. To mount the AP510e on a junction/gang box, use the optional bracket (WS-MBI-
WALL04; #30516). All additional and optional parts are sold separately.
Mounting the AP on a Wood Wall/Solid Flat Ceiling
Pre-installation checklist:
• The mounting surface, item, and hardware must be able to support the AP in all
environmental conditions.
• The mounting surface should be flat.
To install the AP on a dry wall or flat surface:
Option 1: Using the Main Mounting Bracket
1 Use the mounting bracket as a template and mark the hole centers on the wall.
2 Drill two holes 83mm (3.270”) apart from each other on the wall where you want to
mount the AP.
3 Insert the screws into the holes of the mounting bracket and use the screw-in anchors
if needed.
4 Insert the Ethernet cable’s RJ45 connector into the LAN1/GE1 port.
5 Insert the AP onto the bracket’s four feet and slide it down to lock it in place.

Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel should perform installation
procedures.
Note: The mounting procedures for installing the AP using the WS-MBI-
DCFLUSH (ordering part #37211) adaptor to a T-bar, WS-MBI-DCMTR01
(ordering part #30518) to a T-bar, and using the main mounting bracket
(ordering part #37201) along with a flat metal-easy attach adaptor (ordering
part #37210), Accessory BRKT-000147A-01 (beam clip), and KT-135628-01 are
covered in the ExtremeWireless AP510e Installation Guide.
Note: The four feet of the bracket and the direction of the arrow
mark must be vertical and pointing up and the flat part of the bracket
must be touching the surface it is being attached to.
Note: The T-bar width can be either 9/16” (15mm) or 15/16” (24mm).
Number Description
Option 2: Using an optional Wall and Box bracket
For detailed instructions, see the ExtremeWireless AP510e Installation Guide.
Mounting the AP to a Suspended or Drop Ceiling
The AP510e can be mounted to a suspended or drop ceiling directly using the mounting
bracket on the t-bar. If there is a ceiling tile protrusion, add the optional T-bar adaptor to
the main mounting bracket prior to T-bar installation.
Option 1: Using the Main Mounting Bracket to a T-bar
Before installation ensure that:
• The base thickness of the T-bar that supports the ceiling tile is 0.031”.
• The maximum base thickness of the T-bar of the T-bar is 0.055”.
1 Remove the ceiling tiles, slide and rotate the main mounting bracket onto the T-bar in
such a way that the center angled locking tabs of the main bracket gets attached to
the T-bar.
2 Replace the tiles to hold the T-bar in place.
3 Hold the AP and rock it back and forth to ensure it is securely mounted.
4 Attach the Ethernet cable’s RJ45 connector to the LAN1/GE1 port.
Option 2: Mounting the AP by attaching an adaptor to the main bracket
For detailed instructions, see the ExtremeWireless AP510e Installation Guide.
Mounting the AP on a Junction or Gang Box
For detailed procedure on Installing the AP to a Junction or Gang Box, see the
ExtremeWireless AP510e Installation Guide.
Mounting the AP to a Beam
For detailed procedure on Installing the AP to a Beam, see the ExtremeWireless AP510e
Installation Guide.
Connecting a Power Supply to the AP510e
If you need to power the AP510e with an external 12V DC power supply, you can plug the
power cord into the power connector on the back of the AP. There is no wall mount
bracket for the 12V DC power supply. When the device is powered on, the power LED on
the front face of the AP is lit. Refer to the ExtremeWireless AP510e Installation Guide for
information about optional power supplies.
