W-AP175P LED Status Indicators

The W-AP175 include visual indicators for power, link, and radio status. Additionally, each radio has a four-LED 
array that indicates received signal strength (RSSI). 

Figure 2  

LED Layout

Table 2

 lists the meanings of the LEDs on the W-AP175P outdoor access point.

NOTE:  The RSSI LED indicators represent varying degrees in the RSSI level. The absence of a signal is indicated by no LED 
response, and full signal strength is indicated when all four LEDs are active and lit.
