8 AP6562E Access Point
2 Hardware Installation
2.1 Installation Instructions
To prepare for the installation:
1. Match the model number on the purchase order with the model numbers in the packing list and on the
case of the Access Point.
2. Verify the contents of the box include the intended AP6562E Access Point, and the included hardware
matches the package contents for an internal antenna Access Point (see
Internal Antenna Model
Package Contents on page 6
) or external antenna Access Point (see
External Antenna Model
Package Contents on page 7
).
3. Review site survey and network analysis reports to determine the location and mounting position for the
AP6562E Access Point.
4. Connect a CAT-5 or better Ethernet cable to a compatible 802.3at power source and run the cable to the
installation site. Ensure there is sufficient slack on the cable to perform the installation steps.
2.2 Access Point Placement
For optimal performance, install the Access Point away from transformers, heavy-duty motors, fluorescent lights,
microwave ovens, refrigerators and other industrial equipment. Signal loss can occur when metal, concrete, walls
or floors block transmission. Install the Access Point in an open area or add Access Points as needed to improve
coverage.
Place the Access Point using the following guidelines:
• Orient the Access Point antennas vertically for best reception (applies to external antenna models only).
• When deploying outdoor mesh networks using a pole mounted installation, install the Access Point at an
ideal height of 30 to 35 feet from the ground.
To maximize the Access Point’s radio coverage area, Motorola Solutions recommends conducting a site survey to
define and document radio interference obstacles before installing the Access Point.
NOTE
When operating in a Gigabit Ethernet environment, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable
is recommended for Gigabit operation.
