NOTE:

The optional fiber cable is a 10-meter pigtail with waterproof sheath. One end of the
pigtail uses an LC connector and a liquid tight adapter and is inserted into the fiber port
of the AP and the other end uses an SC connector and is connected to an end user
terminal or switch.

If the fiber is connected to a fiber termination box, connect the SC connector to a pair of
SC sockets. The one marked as A is the receiving port (RX) of the AP and must be
connected to the transmitting port (TX) of the peer device; the one marked as B is the TX
port of the AP and must be connected to the RX port of the peer device. Usually, fiber
termination boxes are not waterproof. Put the fiber termination box indoor or in a
waterproof cabinet.
 If the fiber is connected to a fiber connector box, cut off the SC connector and splice the
fiber end with the connector on the connector box. The pigtail marked as A is connected
to the RX port of the AP and the TX port of the peer device; the pigtail marked as B is
connected to the TX port of the AP and the RX port of the peer device. Fiber connector
boxes are usually waterproof and can be buried underground or mounted on a pole.
Connecting the AP to the power source
The WA2620X-AGNP AP can be powered by a power injector or a PoE+ switch.
Connecting the AP to a power injector
As shown in Figure 14 , follow these steps to connect the power injector to the AP:
Step1
Connect the power input line to an AC power source.
Step2
Connect the signal & power output line to the copper port of the AP.
Step3
Connect the signal input line to a switch or an access controller.
Step4
Ground the PE output line of the power injector.
Connecting the AP to a PoE+ capable switch
To power the AP by using a PoE+ capable switch, connect the 10/100/1000BASE-TX port of the AP
to an Ethernet port of the switch through an Ethernet cable.
NOTE:
 If the AP is powered by a PoE+ switch, the power injector is not needed. Make sure that
the PoE+ port can support the maximum power consumption of the AP.

If the AP is powered by a power injector, put the power injector at the switch side, and
the switch connected to the power injector does not need to be PoE+ capable.

Make sure that the installation of the AP is complete before powering on the AP,
regardless of whether the AP is powered through PoE+ or by a power injector.
