Installing the AP 3. Determining the Installation Position When determining the AP installation position, comply with the following rules: Install the AP free from high temperature, dust, toxic gases, flammable or explosive materials, unstable voltage, or electromagnetic interferences, such as radar stations, launch pads, or transformer substations. The AP should also be away from great vibrations and strong noises. Install the AP away from water, drippings, and dews.
Installing the AP 4. Installing the AP NOTE The procedures for installing all models of outdoor APs are the same unless otherwise stated. The following figures use the AP6610DN-AGN as an example. Against the Wall You need the sheet metal wall-mounting bracket and expansion bolt to install the outdoor AP against the wall.
Installing the AP (4) Pinch the wall-mounting bracket on the expansion bolts, and fasten the flat washer, spring washer, and nuts in order. (5) Slide the AP into the wall-mounting bracket and fasten the screw on the wall-mounting bracket. Screw Against the vertical pole (1) Determine the AP installation position, slide the hose clamp through the hole of the wall-mounting bracket and attach it to the pole, and use the hex key to secure screws on the hose clamp.
Installing the AP 5. Installing the Security Lock NOTE You need to purchase the security lock. The device provides a lock hole. You can lock the device to an immovable object to ensure security. The detailed procedures are as follows: (1) Fix the cable of the security lock to a fixed object around. (2) Plug the locking piece into the security keyhole on the device and lock it. 2 1 1. Lock hole 2. Security lock 6.
Installing the AP Connecting the feed line (1) The outdoor AP's antenna ports already have 5 KA surge protection capability. Generally, no surge protection devices need to be installed; therefore, the antenna cables are directly connected to the AP's antenna ports. Feed line Waterproof adhesive tape (2) If higher surge protection capability is required, the customer can purchase a surge protection device. When installing the surge protection device, ensure that it is connected to a ground cable.
Installing the AP The thread must be secured properly; otherwise, optical fibers may be damaged. When removing optical fibers, remove the waterproof PG connector, and then remove the optical fiber connected to the AP. When removing the waterproof PG connector, use the ejector lever to clutch the optical fiber tube. This prevents the optical fiber tube from rotating with the waterproof PG connector and protects optical fibers.
Installing the AP (5) Tighten the Socket and Shell using hand until you can„t see the red color band. Red color band (6) Pre-tighten the nut and socket, and then further tighten the nut using a wrench with a torque of more than 1.2N·m. Wrench specifications:22 Nut Before tightened the socket and shell, the cable can't be tightened by the nut. Please be careful not to damage the surface coating of parts when tightening the nut and socket.
Installing the AP Connecting network cable (1) Use a shield straight-through cable. Cut the cable of proper length based on the distance between the AP and the PSE device, peel the insulation on both ends of the network cable, and crimp the wires to RJ45 connectors. (2) Make a network cable onsite according to the following pin assignment. Otherwise, the communication quality is affected even if devices can be connected.
Installing the AP Only qualified professional personnel can install antennas. An AP can only be equipped with the antennas delivered with it. Installing outdoor antennas Two types of outdoor antennas are available: directional outdoor antenna and omnidirectional outdoor antenna. Omnidirectional antennas can be directly installed on APs. The following are the procedures for installing directional and omnidirectional outdoor antennas. 1.

Power-on Power on the AP and check the indicator status to determine the system running status. NOTE The AP6510DN-AGN supports the PoE function that complies with 802.3at. Table 8 Indicator status of the AP6510DN-AGN and AP6610DN-AGN Information Type Startup status SYS Link Wireless Steady green NA NA The device is being started. Blinking green NA NA The system is working properly. Steady red NA NA The system fails to load the DRAM or system software. The system is working properly.
Power-on If an AP is deployed on a WDS network, you can check the Wireless indicator on the AP to determine whether the AP transmits and receives wireless data normally when it is establishing a WDS link with another AP. The Wireless indicator has four possible states, as described in the following table. Table 9 Wireless indicator status State Blinking Frequency Meaning Blinking very fast Blinking fast 10 Hz Blinking slowly 0.
Logging In to the AP After an AP is powered on, you can log in to the AP using the following methods. 1. Logging In to the AP Using Telnet 1. Logging In to the AP Using Telnet This section describes how to log in to the AP using Telnet. After logging in to the AP, you can configure the AP using commands. Procedure Step 1 Connect a PC to the uplink port of the AP with a network cable. Figure 7 shows the location of the AP's uplink port.
Logging In to the AP Step 4 Step 5 Run the telnet 192.168.0.1 command to log in to the AP. Enter the default user name and password admin. If the user view is displayed, you have logged in successfully. NOTE Run the exit command to exit from the Telnet window. When the system fails to exit from the Telnet window: If you logged in to the AP from an AC or a switch, press Ctrl+T to return to the AC or switch view. This operation does not affect the AP operation.
