1 Introduction The AP-7532 external antenna and internal antenna Access Point’s are mid-tier Access Point’s with a relatively small footprint which supports functionality for dependable and efficient network performance.The AP-7532 is a 3x3:3 802.11ac Access Point utilizing one 2.4 GHz 802.11n radio and one 5 GHz 802.11ac radio. The Access Point housing is Plenum-rated (UL2043).
Introduction Site Preparation • Consult your site survey and network analysis reports to determine specific equipment placement, power drops, and so on. • Assign installation responsibility to the appropriate personnel. • Identify and document where all installed components are located. • Ensure adequate, dust-free ventilation to all installed equipment. • Identify and prepare Ethernet and console port connections.
Introduction Note Per FCC requirement, the use of the Access Point on UNII-1 of 5GHz band requires installers to input antenna elevation gain during configuration if the AP placement is for outdoor coverage. * Antenna Type Part Number 2.4 GHZ Gain (dBi) 5 GHZ Gain (dBi) Elevation Gain for outdoor placement (dBi) ML-2452-APA2-01 Dipole 3.17 4.85 na* ML-2452-HPA5-036 Dipole 3 5 na* ML-2452-APAG2A1-01 Dipole 2.7 1.7 na* ML-2452-PNL9M3-N36 PolarizedPanel 11 10.7 7.

2 Hardware Installation An AP-7532 Access Point mounts either on a wall (with M 3.5 x 0.6 x 23 MM pan head screws and mounting bracket- or equivalent) or on a suspended ceiling T-bar. To prepare for the installation: 1 Match the part number on the purchase order with the part numbers in the packing list and on the case of the Access Point. 2 Verify the contents of the box include the intended AP-7532 Access Point, and the included hardware matches the package contents.
Hardware Installation Access Point Placement For optimal performance, install the Access Point away from transformers, heavy-duty motors, fluorescent lights, microwave ovens, refrigerators and other industrial equipment. Signal loss can occur when metal, concrete, walls or floors block transmission. Install the Access Point in an open area or add Access Points as needed to improve coverage. Antenna coverage is analogous to lighting. Users might find an area lit from far away to be not bright enough.
Hardware Installation The Access Point Power Supply (Part No. PWRS-14000-54R) is not included with the Access Point, but it can be ordered separately as an accessory. If the Access Point is provided both POE power and PWRS-14000-54R power concurrently, the Access Point will source power from the PWRS-14000-54R supply only. Disconnecting the AC power from the PWRS-14000-54R causes the Access Point to re-boot before sourcing power from the POE power injector.
Hardware Installation The following guidelines should be adhered to before cabling the Power Injector to an Ethernet source and an Access Point: • Do not block or cover airflow to the Power Injector. • Keep the Power Injector away from excessive heat, humidity, vibration and dust. • The Power Injector isn’t a repeater, and does not amplify the Ethernet signal. For optimal performance, ensure the Power Injector is placed as close as possible to the data port.
Hardware Installation Wall Mount Procedure - New Installation This section describes a new AP-7532 installation with no previous Access Point existing on the intended wall surface. 1 Place the mounting bracket against the wall. 2 Mark the screw hole locations depending on the intended deployment orientation of the unit. NOTE When pre-drilling a hole the recommended hole size is 4mm (0.16in.). 3 At each point, drill a hole in the wall and attach the mounting bracket.
Hardware Installation For Power Injector installations: a Connect a RJ-45 CAT5e (or CAT6) Ethernet cable between the Power Injector Data & Power Out connector and the Access Point’s GE1/POE port. b Connect a RJ-45 CAT5e (or CAT6) Ethernet cable between the network data supply (host) and the Power Injector Data In connector. c Ensure the cable length from the Ethernet source (host) to the Power Injector and Access Point does not exceed 100 meters (333 ft). The Power Injector has no On/Off power switch.
Hardware Installation 1 First install the mounting bracket on the T-bar then attach the mounting bracket using the mounting slots on the Access Point. . 2 Cable the Access Point using either the Power Injector solution (AP-PSBIAS-2P3-ATR) or the approved AP-7532 power supply (PWRS-14000-54R). For Power Injector installations: a Connect a RJ-45 CAT5e (or CAT6) Ethernet cable between the network data supply (host) and the Power Injector Data In connector.
Hardware Installation i j Attach the power adapter cable into the power connector on the Access Point. Attach the power supply line cord to a power supply. CAUTION If not using an AP-PSBIAS-2P3-ATR power injector, ensure only the AP-7532’s designated power supply (PWRS-14000-54R) is used to supply power to the Access Point. Using an incorrectly rated power supply could damage the Access Point and void the product warranty.
Hardware Installation . The Access Point is ready to configure. LED Indicator The AP-7532 LED activity indicators are located on the front of the housing and are visible through the enclosure.
Hardware Installation . The LEDs provide a status display indicating error conditions, transmission, and network activity for the 5 GHz 802.11ac (amber) radio and the 2.4 GHz 802.11n (green) radio.

3 Basic Access Point Configuration Once the AP-7532 is installed and powered on, complete the following steps to get the Access Point up and running and access management functions: 1 The Access Point’s IP address is optimally provided using DHCP or from bottom of the Access Point itself (if available). A zero config IP address can also be derived if DHCP resources are unavailable or the IP address is not listed on the bottom of the unit.
Basic Access Point Configuration 6 Select the Country Code specific to this Access Point’s deployment location. Selecting the correct country is central to legal operation. Each country has its own regulatory restrictions concerning electromagnetic emissions and the maximum RF signal strength that can be transmitted. Select Apply to implement the selected Country Code.
Basic Access Point Configuration • Virtual Controller -Select this option to define this Access Point as a Virtual Controller capable of managing and provisioning up to 24 Access Points of the same type. If selecting this Access Point as a Virtual Controller, those Access Points managed by this Virtual Controller will list this Access Point’s AP Name as its own. Only one Virtual Controller can be designated.
Basic Access Point Configuration and Login Password. Server Name and Default Gateway are optional settings. PPP is a data-link protocol for dialup connections allowing an Access Point to use a broadband modem (DSL, cable modem, etc.) for access to high-speed data and broadband networks. Most DSL providers support (or deploy) the PPPoE protocol. PPPoE uses standard encryption, authentication, and compression as specified by the PPPoE protocol.
Basic Access Point Configuration The Wireless screen displays fields where Radio Settings and Wireless LAN settings can be defined. Its recommended default radio settings remain as is for the Access Point’s basic setup. In respect to the Radio Settings, the professional installer should be aware of the following: NOTE The above example includes a field for setting the antenna gain. This setting is only available for external antenna Access Points and does not display for internal antenna Access Points.
Basic Access Point Configuration 17 Set the following configuration attributes for the new WLAN: • Name - Provide a unique name for the WLAN as its network identifier. This is a required setting. • Enable - Select this setting to enable this WLAN within the Access Point managed network and provide some measure of data protection. • SSID - Specify the WLAN's SSID. The WLAN SSID is case sensitive and alphanumeric. SSID length should not exceed 32 characters. This is a required setting.
Basic Access Point Configuration distribution. Its recommended you do not use VLAN 1 with the WLAN if the WAN port has been enabled. • Description - Optionally enter a WLAN description to further describe the WLAN’s deployment objective. 18 Select Apply to commit the updates to the Access Point’s WLAN configuration. 19 Expand the Configuration menu item and select Services.
