Installation IMPORTANT: Supported only from System Director 8.2 or later. The unit can be mounted on a ceiling using the provided ceiling mounting bracket. To attach the unit to a ceiling using the ceiling mount bracket: 1. Attach the ceiling mount bracket to the bottom cover of the FortiAP unit by sliding the ceiling the mount bracket from the left to the right onto the FortiAP Unit. If extra space is required to accommodate drop ceiling tiles, use the taller ceiling mount bracket.
2. Select an appropriate location, hold the device against the ceiling t-rail, and push the FortiAP unit onto the ceiling until it snaps into place. The unit can be removed from the bracket by pressing on the bracket tab and sliding the device out. Note: Four ceiling mount brackets are included; both standard and recessed ceiling mount brackets come in sizes: 1.43cm (9/16in) and 2.38cm (15/16in).
Antennas (Applicable for U423EV only) The FortiAP unit provides dual concurrent radio signals. Use the 2.4GHz antennas to access Radio 0 (802.11 b/g/n 288Mbps) signals, and the 5GHz antennas to access Radio 1 (802.11 a/n/ac 1733Mbps) signals. To use both radio frequencies concurrently, use all eight WiFi antennas. Installing the WiFi Antennas 1. Insert the antenna base firmly into the appropriate antenna mount. 2. Securely hand tighten the fastening collar 3.
5GHz Antennas 2.4GHz 2.4 GHz 5 GHz 2.4 GHz 5 GHz 2.4GHz 5GHz 2.4 GHz 5 GHz 2.4GHz 5GHz 2.4 GHz 2.
AP Mounting and Antenna Position FAP U423EV All 5.0GHz antennas are vertically oriented and the 2.4GHz antennas are bent at 45 degrees.
Ports USB Port (USB A) Console Port (RJ-45) Optional management computer connection Provides access to the Command-Line Interface (CLI) Ethernet Port (RJ-45) Gigabit Ethernet port with Power over Ethernet (PoE) Powered Device (PD) support Use ONLY: 802.

Connecting Using the provided mounting hardware, attach the FortiAP unit to the wall or ceiling. Adequate grounding must be provided to the FortiAP unit in compliance with the local electrical code. Caution: This device complies with IEEE 802.af and 802.3at PoE specification. Do not use any PoE injectors that are not IEEE 802.3af or 802.3at compliant, as they may damage your device. To connect the FortiAP unit: 1. Insert an Ethernet cable into the LAN1 or LAN2 port of the FortiAP unit. 2.
Configuring The FortiAP unit is designed to require no configuration in most networks. Zero configuration mode works if the unit is directly connected to a Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) or on the same layer-2 network and subnet as the FortiWLC. If the FortiAP wireless controller’s IP address cannot be determined using Zero Configuration mode, or if the network uses static IP addresses, it can be configured to use a static IP address.. To enable the FortiAP using Zero Configuration: 1.
Configuring To enable the FortiAP with a static IP address: 1. Connect the FortiAP device to a seperate private switch or hub. 2. Log into AP console. 3. Type Ip config net static netmask gateway 4. Save the configuration by typing ip config save. 5. Unplug the FortiAP unit and plug it back in order for the configuration to take effect. 6.
