Test Basic Link Operation
Prior to deploying the AP, it is recommended that users connect it to an existing Fortinet
deployment in order to ensure basic functionality. This can be done indoors in a controlled set-
ting, prior to going through the trouble of mounting it externally. To do so, simply connect the
AP to an existing controller and verify that the controller recognizes it. If so, proceed with the
following section in order to deploy the AP.
Mounting the Access Point
The OAP433e can be mounted on the following (brackets are included):
•
2 to 3 inch diameter pole
•
Wall
Mounting OAP433e with the Pole-Mounting Bracket
Be sure to attach antennas (see
“Connecting Antennas and Ground Wire to OAP433e”
) before mounting an OAP433e on a pole. Follow these steps to mount the unit to a 2
to 3 inch diameter steel pole or tube using the mounting bracket:
1.
Attach the OAP433e to the square portion of the mounting bracket by placing the bracket
flat against the bottom of the AP and inserting screws into the corners of the bracket por-
tion. The holes on the bracket should correspond to the holes on the bottom of the AP.
