Cabling the AP-700
Connect cables to the AP-700 as follows:
1. Plug the power cord into the power jack (the left port) and connect the unit to an AC power outlet (100~240V,
50~60Hz).
2. If using active Ethernet, connect power to the unit from a DC injector device, such as the ORiNOCO 1-Port Active
Ethernet DC Injector hub.
3. Attach one end of an Ethernet cable to the AP's WAN port (the center port, labeled “WAN”) and the other end to a
network hub or switch.
4. Optionally, connect an RS-232 cable to the RS-232 console port (the right port, labeled “RS-232”).
NOTE
You cannot install the security cover to the AP-700 if an RS-232 cable is connected.
