Overview of the AP-7602

An AP-7602 is designed for the cost effective deployment of 802.11AC 
networks.  An AP-7602 supports scalable management options, including 
standalone and Virtual Controller (where one AP can manage multiple APs), 
WiNG NOC, Site Controllers, and Cloud Management.

AP-7602 Specifications

Telco Box Mounting the AP-7602 Wireless 
Wallplate

For telco Box installations, the Wireless Wallplate is installed directly over the 
standard wall plate supplying Ethernet. All cabled electrical connections are 
made within a recessed well in the housing of the Access Point. To install the 
Wireless Wallplate over a telco box:

1

Remove the existing screws and the existing wallplate cover.

2

Gently push RJ-45 outlets into telco box. 

3

Reuse the existing screws to screw the mounting plate to the telco box.

4

Without going over any plastic, connect one end of the 10cm RJ-45 cable into GE1 and 
route the GE1 cable back through the routing channel on the underside of the Wireless 
Wallplate. Plug the other end of the 10cm RJ-45 cable into the RJ-45 outlet.

5

Snap the Wireless Wallplate to the mounting plate and verify the unit has power by 
observing the LEDs.

6

The AP-7602 is ready to configure.

Wall Mounting the AP-7602 Wireless Wallplate

An AP-7602 can be mounted to a flush surface without a telco box.

1

Install the included mounting bracket to the wall using wood screws and wall anchors 
if appropriate.

2

Connect an Ethernet cable to the GE1 port before connecting the Access Point.

3

Hook the top of the Access Point to the bracket, rotate and snap the bottom of the 
Access Point. 

4

Optionally install the included security screw once the installation is verified.

5

The Access Point is ready to configure.

Basic AP-7602 Configuration

Once the Access Point is installed and powered on, complete the following 
WiNG Assist configuration steps to get up and running with minimal 
administrative intervention.

more advanced configuration documentation, available on the support site, 
for updating the management interface beyond the scope of the WiNG Assist 
configuration described in this guide. For more information, see: 
www.extremenetworks.com/support. 
To define a basic Startup Assist configuration: 

1

Power the Access Point using an appropriate power adapter, PoE injector, or PoE 
switch.

2

Connect to the Access Point using its default IP address located on the backside of the 
Access Point.

3

Enter the default username admin in the Username field.

4

Enter the default password admin123 in the Password field.

5

Select the Login button to load the management interface. If logging in using a factory 
default configuration, Startup Assist automatically displays.

Select the Basic screen, click Startup Assist.

Set the following Startup Assist parameters:

Virtual Controller - Sets this Access Point as a Virtual Controller capable of managing 
and provisioning up to 24 other Access Points of the same model. Access Points 
managed by this Virtual Controller list this Access Point's AP Name as its own. Only 
one Virtual Controller can be designated.

Country Name - Set the Access Point's deployment country. Selecting the correct 
country is central to legal operation. Each country has its own regulatory restrictions 
concerning electromagnetic emissions and the maximum RF signal strength that can 
be transmitted.

Note:  Country Name can not be changed when deployed in the United States or 
Canada. 

Timezone - Specify the geographic timezone where the Access Point is deployed. 
Different time zones have daylight savings clock adjustments, so specifying the 
timezone correctly is important to account for geographic time changes.

Date & Time -Set the date, hour and minute for the current system time in AM or PM 
format.

WLAN 1 Name - Provide a unique network identifier name for this WLAN. This is a 
required setting. The name is used for the SSID. 

Authentication - Select PSK to apply a 64 character maximum passphrase in either 
ASCII or Hex format.The authenticating device must use the same PSK algorithm 
during authentication. Selecting Show displays the key in exposed plain text (not 
recommended).
Selecting Open is not a recommended authentication scheme, as it would provide the 
Access Point's WLAN no security via credential exchange and would only make sense 
in a network where no sensitive data is either transmitted or received.

6

Select Apply to save and commit the Startup Assist changes to the Access Point's 
configuration. Select Discard to revert to the last saved configuration.

For supplied antennas, compatible with 5.0 GHz on the access points, refer to 
the Antenna Guide for "Elevation Gain" information. If using a third-party 
antenna, it is required that you obtain the antenna-elevation gain information 
from the antenna manufacturer.
Panel antennas and polarized antennas for point to point only are excluded 
from this requirement.
The elevation gain must be configured if the access point:

Is used with dipole antenna. and

Is transmitting in the 5.15 - 5.25 GHz Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure-1 
(UNII1) band

supply with electrical ratings: Output 12Vdc, min 1A, with a maximum ambient 
temperature of at least 50 degrees C. Use of alternative power supply will 
invalidate any approvals given to this unit and may be dangerous.
Alternately this device may be powered from a 802.3af compliant power 
source which has been certified by the appropriate agencies, or by an
