Summary of Installation Steps

• WLAN Planning. Usually, a comprehensive site survey is required before installation, such as installation location, brackets, cables, power source, etc.
• Unpack the AP box and check all contents
• Install the AP bracket on the ceiling or wall
• Installing the AP
• Connecting required cables
• Power connection
• Verifying post-installation connectivity
• AP provisioning

Access points are radio transmission devices and are subject to governmental regulation. Network administrators who are responsible for the configuration and operation of access points must comply with local broadcast regulations. Specifically, the access point must use channel assignments appropriate to the location where the access point will be deployed.

Table 1

1 Gigabit Eth0| 1x 10/100/1000BASE-T autosensing (RJ-45) port, Power over Ethernet (PoE). In the case of only one WAN link， Eth0 would be preferred.
---|---
1 Gigabit Eht1| 1x 10/100/1000BASE-T autosensing (RJ-45) port, Power over Ethernet (PoE). In the case of only one WAN link， either Eth0 or Eth1 could work as WAN, Eth0 would be more preferred. In the case of two WAN links， Eth0 +Eth1 would be preferred.
1 Gigabit LAN| 1x 10/100/1000BASE-T autosensing (RJ-45) port.
Console| RJ-45 connector, default is RS-232 Console for Service & Support only. Support software configures to RS-485 mode.
USB| USB 2.0 host interface (Type C, output current 0.5A )
DC Power Socket| DC 48V power jack, support powering AP through a designated AC-DC power adapter.
Reset| Factory reset. Press the reset button for 5s, AP LEDs will quickly flash for 3s, then AP will restart and restore factory configurations.
Security Lock Slot| The AP is equipped with a security lock slot for added security.

RS-485 Port Pinout

Pins not listed must be not connected.

Note: The serial console port allows you to connect the AP to a serial terminal or a laptop for direct local management. This port is an RJ-45 female connector with the pinouts described in Table 3. Currently for use by Service & Support only.
Note: The RS-485 port allows you to connect the AP to an RS-485 terminal. The maximum allowable current of PSE 12V power output is 300mA. In addition, PSE 12V  power output can be turned on and off by software. This port is an RJ-45 female connector with the pinouts described in Table 4.
Power
The AP331 series access point supports a direct DC power adapter (48V DC nominal sold separately) and Power over Ethernet (PoE).
The DC power connector port is located on the back of the device, as shown in Figure 3.
The PoE allows the Ethernet port to draw power from an IEEE 802.3at compliant source with full functionality. If with 802.3af, the AP will work without RS485 PSE and a USB  port.

Before You Begin

Refer to the sections below before beginning the installation process.
Pre-installation Checklist
Before installing your AP331 Stellar access point, be sure that you have the following items:

• 8-conductor, CAT5, or better UTP cable of the required length.

• One of the following power sources:
  • IEEE 802.3at compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE) source (PoE switch or PoE injector).
  • AC-DC adapter (sold separately)， output voltage DC 48V, output current ≥0.6A

• A terminal or a notebook

Identifying Specific Installation Locations
You can mount the AP on a ceiling rail or on a wall. You should first determine the location of the installation. The installation position is located at the center of the required coverage area and should be free from obstructions or obvious sources of interference.

• Minimize the number of obstructions (such as walls) between the AP and user terminals.
• Electronic equipment or devices (such as microwave ovens) which may produce radio frequency noise should be away from the installation position of the AP.

It is strictly prohibited to install around stagnant water, water seepage, leakage, or condensation. Avoid cable condensation or water seepage along the cables connecting to the AP.

AP Installation
Refer to the mounting kits installation Guide.

Verifying Post-Installation Connectivity
The LED on the AP can be used to verify that the AP is receiving power and initializing successfully.
