Connecting Ethernet and Power
Ethernet and Power
To apply power and network simultaneously, simply connect one end of an
Ethernet cable to a PoE+ switch, and the other end to the XAP-1610 PoE port.
To connect power and Ethernet separately, first connect an Ethernet cable
from the supplied PoE Injector
Data & PWR Out
port to the PoE port on
the XAP-1610. An Ethernet cable length of up to 300 feet can be used.
Next, connect an Ethernet cable from your Router or Switch to the
Data
IN
port on the PoE Injector. Finally, connect the AC cord to the included
PoE Injector, then to the AC outlet.
n
Note:
Luxul recommends at least Cat-5e unshielded twisted pair
(CAT5e UTP) cabling. To ensure best performance at 1000 Mbps, use
CAT6 UTP.

Preparing for Access
IP Addressing
If the XAP-1610 is connected to a network with a 192.168.0.X address scheme,
and your computer shares a similar address on the same network, you can skip
to the next step,
Access and Setup
.
If your network uses an address scheme other than 192.168.0.X, you’ll need
to set a temporary static IP address on the computer you’re using for config-
uration. To do so, set the IP address of your computer to an address in the
192.168.0.X range, then set the Gateway/Router address to 192.168.0.10 (the
default IP address of the XAP-1610).
Once you’re finished configuring the AP, you can return your computer’s IP
configuration to normal, typically “Obtain Automatically/DHCP.”

Access and Setup
Getting Connected
X
Connecting Via an Ethernet Device:
Use Ethernet cable to connect your
computer to the PoE+ switch or PoE injector to which the XAP-1610 is
connected. Ethernet is the preferred method of connection.
X
Connecting Via a Wireless Device:
Connect your client device to the
XAP-1610 default wireless network named
Luxul_XAP1610
or
Luxul_
XAP1610_5G
. The wireless network will run in Open Security mode, so no
passphrase is required until Wireless Security is configured.
Logging In
To access the AP’s web configuration, open your web browser and enter the
AP’s default 192.168.0.10 IP address in the address field. Log in to the AP using the
default user name and password:
Default IP: 192.168.0.10
Username: admin
Password: admin
n
Note:
If another device on your network shares the 192.168.0.10 address,
you’ll need to temporarily reassign or remove that device while
you configure the XAP-1610.
n
Note:
The XAP-1610 is not a router and will need to be connected to a
network with a router in order to deliver Internet access.

Hardware Operation
LED Indicators
Enclosure:
If the green Power LED is on, the XAP-1610 is powered and working.
If the Power LED is OFF, the AP is not receiving power or the LED has been
turned off in the AP’s web interface. If the green Power LED is blinking, the
XAP-1610 is booting. The two blue LEDs indicate indicate each of the 2.4GHz
and 5GHz networks are configured and broadcasting.
XAP-1610 LED’s
PoE Injector:
If the Green ON LED is illuminated, power is connected to the
injector. If the ON LED is not lit, the injector is not receiving power.
Reset Button
The Reset button is located underneath the mount and marked RESET. It
may be used to reboot the AP or to restore factory default settings.
Reboot the AP:
With the XAP-1610 powered on, simply press and release
the Reset button.
Restore Factory Defaults:
With the XAP-1610 powered on,
press and hold the Reset button for 10 seconds. After 10
seconds the lights will begin to flash quickly, then release the
button and the XAP-1610 will restore factory defaults and reboot.
c
CAUTION:
Holding the Reset button for more than a few seconds
will restore the AP to factory default and remove any
custom configuration.
