Installation

Warning: For a safe and reliable installation, use only the accessories and screws provided with the device. The use of other accessories and screws could result in damage to the unit. Any damages incurred by using unapproved accessories are not covered by the warranty.

Avertissement: Pour une installation sûre et fiable, utilisez uniquement les accessoires et les vis fournies avec l’appareil. L’utilisation d’autres accessoires et vis pourrait endommager l’appareil. Les dommages causés par l’utilisation d’accessoires non approuvés ne sont pas couverts par la garantie.

Note: The drawings in this document are for illustration only and may not match your particular model.

1. Mount the AP

The included mounting brackets are designed for pole mounting and provide additional degrees of movement for antenna alignment.
a. Using a Single Bracket (Parallel)

1. Install the bracket onto the AP using the included four screws.
2. Thread the included steel hose clamps through the eyelets on the back of the Mounting Bracket and then lightly fasten them around the pole. Both hose clamps must be used for pole mounting.

b. Using Two Brackets (Tilt)

1. Attach the two main sections of the bracket using the four included screws and locknuts.

2. Install the bracket onto the AP using the included four screws.

3. Thread the included steel hose clamps through the eyelets on the back of the Mounting Bracket and then lightly fasten them around the pole. Both hose clamps must be used for pole mounting.

c. (Optional) Using Two Brackets (Perpendicular)

1. Attach the two main sections of the bracket using the four included screws and locknuts. This requires an optional bracket.

2. Install the bracket onto the AP using the included four screws.

3. Thread the included steel hose clamps through the eyelets on the back of the Mounting Bracket and then lightly fasten them around the pole. Both hose clamps must be used for pole mounting.

2 Ground the AP

Ground the AP by connecting a ground wire to the grounding point on the device and to the nearby good earth.

3 Install the 5G Antennas

Install approved cellular 5G Omni external antennas to improve coverage and performance.

3 Connect Cables
a. Connect LAN Cables

Note: Port covers and cable glands should be tightened to a torque of 10 kgf. cm.

1. Connect Category 5e or better cable to the Uplink (PoE In) 1000BASE-T RJ-45 port. When connected to a PoE source, the Uplink (PoE In) port connection provides power to the unit.
2. (Optional) Connect a local LAN switch, computer, or another device to the LAN (PoE Out) 1000BASE-T RJ-45 port.
   b. (Optional) Connect DC Power
   When not connected to a PoE source, wire the included DC terminal plug to a 10­24 VDC, 0.5-1 A source to provide power to the AP.
   c. (Optional) Management Connections
   Connect an RJ-45 to DE-9 straight-through console cable and then configure the serial connection: 115200 bps, 8 characters, no parity, one stop bit, 8 data bits, and no flow control.

4 Check AP LEDs
Power and System LEDs–on green for normal operation.

5 Connect to the Web User Interface

1. Connect a PC directly to the AP’s LAN (PoE Out) port.

2. Set the PC IP address to be on the same subnet as the AP LAN port default IP address. (The PC address must start 192.168.1.x with subnet mask 255.255.255.0.)

3. Enter the AP’s default IP address of 192.168.1.10 into the web browser address bar.
   Note: To connect to the web interface using the Uplink (PoE In) port, the IP address is automatically assigned through DHCP by default. If a DHCP server is unreachable, the Uplink(PoE) port reverts to a fallback IP address of 192.168.1.10.

4. Log in to the web interface using default settings:
   Username = admin
   Password = admin

Safety and Regulatory Information

FCC Class B
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
