Using the provided mounting hardware, attach the FortiAP unit to a wall or ceiling,
as described in the previous chapter.
Adequate grounding must be provided to the FortiAP unit and the PoE injector, in
compliance with the local electrical code.
Caution:
This device complies with IEEE 802.3af PoE specification. Do not use any
PoE injectors that are not IEEE 802.3af compliant as they may damage your device.
To connect the FortiAP unit:
1.
Insert an Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port of the FortiAP unit.
2.
Insert the other end of the Ethernet cable into your FortiGate or FortiWifi unit.
If you are using PoE, ensure that the Ethernet cable is connected to an applicable
port on your FortiGate unit, FortiSwitch unit, or PoE injector.
3.
If you are not using PoE, connect a region-specific AC plug adapter to the optional
power adapter by inserting the round disk into the adapter and rotating clockwise
until you hear the disk lock in place. Then insert the DC plug of the power adapter
into the DC power jack on the FortiAP unit.
Note:
For FortiWifi units, the wireless controller feature is only supported on units
running FortiOS 4.0 MR3 and higher.
Caution:
This equipment is to be connected only to PoE networks without routing
to the outside plant.
Note:
This device is certified for use only with the included antennae and
part number FAP-ANT-336R. Always ensure compliance with regulatory radio
transmission regulations for your region and seek professional installation if using
with other antenna models.
