Power

The OAW-AP1351 series access point supports 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.
OmniAccess Stellar AP supports the power adapter provided by ALE ONLY.

Before You Begin

Refer to the sections below before beginning the installation process.

Pre-installation Checklist

Before installing your OAW-AP1351 Stellar access point, be sure that you have the following items:

  • 8-conductor, CAT5 or better UTP cable of 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 ≥1.1A
  • A terminal or a notebook

Identifying Specific Installation Locations

You can mount the OmniAccess Stellar 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 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.

Introduction

This document contains domestic and international regulatory compliance information for the access point OAW-AP1351. To ensure that this device complies with the regulatory standards for your region, please refer to the content below.

FCC Part 15:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part15 of the FCC Rules.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generate, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:

  • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
  • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

Instruction

IC Radiation Exposure Statement for Canada

This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent is otropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

User manuals for transmitters equipped with detachable antennas shall also contain the following notice in a conspicuous location:

This radio transmitter (identify the device by certification number, or model number if Category II) has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Radiation Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with “Industry Canada RSS-102 for radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment”.
