Section 2 - Installation
Mounting the Device
If you plan to install the DAP-3711 on a pole, orient the front of the access point (the side without the LEDs) toward the intended
coverage area. The radio antennas transmit through the front of the access point but not through the reverse side (where the
bracket is).
Be sure to install the device at a height that ensures that the alignment between the devices is visible and there is no obstruction
in the middle.
Checking the Signal Strength
Before fixing the device in place, slowly pan the DAP-3711 from side to side and check the LED indicator to find the position
where the signal is strongest.
Mounting on a Pole
1.Connect an Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the DAP-3711.
2.Place the DAP-3711 against the pole where you want it to be positioned.
3. Wrap the metal mounting ties around the pole and thread them through
the holes on the DAP-37
