Verifying Successful Installation

The integrated LEDs on the AP 65 may be used at this point to 
verify the AP is receiving power and initializing successfully. 
LED status is as follows:

Provisioning the Aruba 65

Once an AP associates to a host Aruba Mobility Controller and 
receives its basic confi guration, it may  be provisioned. 

AP Provisioning is the process by which APs are assigned 
advanced or AP unique confi guration parameters, for example  
location codes, security credentials, or Remote AP credentials. 
Location codes are important for RF calibration and triangula-
tion. 

AP Provisioning is not mandatory for basic wireless deploy-
ment however it is recommended. It is mandatory for situa-
tions where APs are required to be pre-staged or provisioned 
in advance of shipment and fi nal network installation, such as 
Remote AP (RAP) deployments. 

Aruba APs may be provisioned in bulk in AP programming 
mode, where confi guration parameters are defi ned on the 
Aruba Mobility Controller via command line interface or web 
interface, and then uploaded to APs in batches. 

For details on AP confi guration and provisioning, see the

Disposal of the Aruba 65

This product at end of life is subject to separate  
collection and treatment in the EU Member 
states, Norway, and Switzerland and therefore 
is marked with the symbol shown at the left. 
Treatment applied at end of life of these prod-
ucts in these countries shall comply with the 

applicable national laws implementing Directive 2002/96EC 
on Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).

The WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC and RoHS (Restriction of Haz-
ardous Substances) Directive 2002/95/EC sets collection, recy-
cling and recovery targets for various categories of electrical 
products and their waste.

The Restriction on Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS) 

      

(2002/95/EC), which accompanies the WEEE Directive, bans 
the use of heavy metals and brominated fl ame-retardants in the 
manufacture of electrical and electronic equipment. Specifi cally, 
restricted materials under the RoHS Directive are Lead (Includ-
ing Solder used in PCB’s), Cadmium, Mercury, Hexavalent Chro-
mium, and Bromine.

Aruba declares compliance with the European Union (EU) WEEE 
Directive (2002/96/EC). For more information on WEEE, refer

Compliance

FCC

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the 
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC 
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection 
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a 
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can 
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used 
in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful 
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guar-
antee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or tele-
vision reception, which can be determined by turning the equip-
ment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the inter-
ference by one or more of the following measures:

- Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from  

  that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Any changes or modifi cations not expressly approved by the 
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority 
to operate this equipment.

This product complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation 
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may 
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept 
any interference received, including interference that may cause    
undesired operation.

CAUTION STATEMENT:

 FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement

This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits 
set forth for indoor use only. This equipment should be installed 
and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters (7.87 
inches) between the radiator and your body for 2.4 GHz and 5  
GHz operations. This transmitter must not be co-located or operat-
ing in   conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

This device is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 
5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency range. The FCC requires this product 
to be used indoors to reduce the potential for harmful interference 
to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems. High power radars are 
allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to 
5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with 
and/or damage this device.
