**Installation Requirements
**
Before you begin the installation, make sure that you have the followings:
- Phillips screwdriver.
- Standard-sized, 19″ wide rack with a minimum of 1U height available.
- Category 5e or higher RJ-45 Ethernet cables and fiber optical cables for connecting network devices.
Site Environment
- Make sure the installation site is dry and flat.
- Keep the controller far away from the heat source.
- Ensure that the controller is properly grounded.
- Wear an anti-static wrist strap during installation and maintenance.
- Keep the controller and installation tools away from walkways.
- Use UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) to prevent power failure and other interference.
Mounting the Wireless LAN Controller
Desk Mounting
- Attach four rubber pads to the bottom.
- Place the controller on a desk.
Rack Mounting
- Secure the mounting brackets on the two sides of the controller with six M4 screws.
- Attach the contro ller to the rack using four M6 screws and cage nuts.
Grounding the Controller
- Connect one end of the grounding cable to a proper earth ground, such as the rack in which the controller is mounted.
- Secure the grounding lug to the grounding point on the controller back panel with the washers and screws.
Connecting the Power
- Plug the AC power cord into the power port on the back panel.
- Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC power source.
Connecting the Console Ports
- Insert the RJ45 connector into the RJ45 console port on the front panel.
- Connect the DB9 female connector of the console cable to RS-232 serial port on the computer.
Connecting the RJ45 Ports
- Connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port of a computer or other network devices.
- Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port of the controller.
Connecting the SFP Ports
- Plug the compatible SFP transceiver into the SFP port.
- Connect a fiber optic cable to the fiber transceiver. Then connect the other end of the cable to another fiber device.
NOTE: The AC-1004 can’t be mounted in the rack. Other detailed steps of its installation are the same as the AC-7072.
Configuring the Wireless LAN Controller
Configuring the Controller Using the Console Port
Step 1: Connect a computer to the controller’s console port using the
supplied console cable.
Step 2: Start the terminal simulation software such as HyperTerminal on
the computer.
