AP-7532 Access Point Installation Guide
10
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.
To install the Power Injector to an Ethernet data source and an Access Point:
1
Connect the Power Injector to an AC outlet (110VAC to 220VAC).
2 Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable between the Power Injector Data & Power Out
connector and the Access Point’s GE1/POE port.
3 Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable between the network data supply (host) and the
Power Injector Data In connector.
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. The Injector receives power and is
ready for device connection and operation as soon as AC power is applied. Refer to the
Installation Guide shipped with the Power Injector for a description of the LEDs.
Wall Mount Instructions
A wall mount deployment requires hanging the AP-7532 Access Point with the provided
mounting bracket and two screws. The AP-7532 can be mounted on to any plaster, wood or
cement wall surface using the provided mounting bracket.
The hardware required to install the AP-7532 on a wall consists of:
•
Two wide-shoulder Phillips pan head self-tapping screws (M3.5 x 0.6 x 23 mm)
•
Mounting bracket
Optional customer provided installation tools include:
•
Phillips head screw driver, or drill and drill bit.
CAUTION
To avoid problematic performance and restarts, disable POE from a wired switch port
connected to an Access Point if mid-span power sourcing equipment (PSE) is used
between the two, regardless of the manufacturer of the switch.
CAUTION
Ensure AC power is supplied to the Power Injector using an AC cable with an
appropriate ground connection approved for the country of operation.
