Read this guide to get started. AirPort Extreme is a fully featured Wi-Fi base station that provides simultaneous dual-band wireless networking using the 802.11ac specification. When you set up your AirPort Extreme, it creates two high-speed Wi-Fi networks: ÂA 2.4 gigahertz (GHz) network for 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n devices, such as iPhone, iPod touch, and older computers ÂA 5 GHz network for 802.11n, 802.11a, and 802.11ac devices, such as iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and newer computers Wi-Fi devices automatically join the network that provides the best performance and compatibility, and AirPort Extreme shares your broadband Internet connection with computers and devices on your network. Apple Confidential Draft Chapter 1 Getting Started6 Status light USB Ethernet LAN Power Ethernet WAN Link light Power cord (Your power cord may look different.) Reset button Apple Confidential Draft Chapter 1 Getting Started7 Ports on Your AirPort Extreme AirPort Extreme has six ports on the back: < One Gigabit Ethernet Wide Area Network (WAN) port For connecting a DSL or cable modem, or for connecting to an existing Ethernet network G Three Gigabit Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN) ports For connecting Ethernet devices such as printers or computers, or for connecting to an existing Ethernet network d One USB port For connecting a compatible USB printer, hard disk, or hub for connecting several devices ≤ Power port For connecting AirPort Extreme to an AC power source Next to the power port is a reset button for troubleshooting your AirPort Extreme. The status light on the front shows its current status. Apple Confidential Draft Chapter 1 Getting Started8 Plugging In Your AirPort Extreme Before you plug in your AirPort Extreme, first connect the appropriate cables to the ports you want to use: ÂConnect the Ethernet cable that’s connected to your DSL or cable modem (if you’ll connect to the Internet) to the Ethernet WAN port (<) . ÂConnect a USB cable from the USB port (d) on your AirPort Extreme to a compatible USB printer, a hard disk, or a hub. ÂConnect an Ethernet cable from any Ethernet device to any of the Ethernet LAN ports (G). After you connect the cables for all the devices you plan to use, connect the power cord to the power port and plug your AirPort Extreme into a power outlet. There is no power switch. Important: Use only the power cord that came with your AirPort Extreme. When you plug the AirPort Extreme power cord into a power outlet, the status light glows amber during startup, and then flashes amber during setup. The status light glows green after your AirPort Extreme is set up and connected to the Internet or a network. When you connect Ethernet cables to the Ethernet ports, the lights above them glow solid green. Apple Confidential Draft Chapter 1 Getting Started9 The AirPort Extreme Status Light The following table explains the AirPort Extreme light sequences and what they indicate. LightStatus/description OffYour AirPort Extreme is unplugged. Solid amberYour AirPort Extreme is starting up. Flashing amberYour AirPort Extreme can’t establish a connection to the network or the Internet, or is encountering a problem. Use AirPort Utility to get information about what might cause the status light to flash amber. See “If Your AirPort Extreme Status Light Flashes Amber” on page 18. Solid greenYour AirPort Extreme is on and working properly. Flashing amber and green There may be a problem starting up. Your AirPort Extreme will restart and try again. With AirPort Extreme, you can: ÂCreate a password-protected Wi-Fi network, and then connect to the Internet and share the connection with other computers and Wi-Fi devices, such as iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, and Apple TV. ÂCreate a guest network, with or without password protection, to give wireless Internet access to friends and visitors. Devices that connect to the guest network have access to the Internet, but not to your local network. ÂConnect a Wi-Fi printer to AirPort Extreme. All the supported computers and Wi-Fi devices on the network can print to it. ÂConnect a USB hard disk to AirPort Extreme. All the computers on the network can access the disk. Use the Time Machine application in OS X v10.5.7 or later to back up all the Mac computers in your home.

 Apple Inc. 1 Infinite Loop Cupertino, CA www.apple.com Federal Communications Commission Office of Engineering and Technology Laboratory Division 7435 Oakland Mills Rd. Columbia MD 21046 Subject: Request for Confidentiality FCC ID: BCGA1521 To whom it may concern: Pursuant to the provisions of Sections 0.457 and 0.459 of the Commission’s rules (47 CFR §§ 0.457, 0.459), Apple Inc. hereby requests confidential treatment for documents filed with the Commission in connection with the application for equipment authorization referenced above. Permanent Confidentiality Apple Inc. requests that the Commission withholds the following documents from public viewing indefinitely: • Block Diagrams • Electrical Schematic Diagrams • Technical Description • Antenna Specifications These documents reveal detailed technical and design information that is protected by Apple Inc. as confidential and proprietary trade secrets. This information has been disclosed to those required to maintain its confidentiality, and is not customarily disclosed to the public even after commercial release of a device. As a result, disclosure of this information by the Commission would harm Apple Inc. by giving competitors an unfair advantage even after commercial release of the device. Short Term Confidentiality In addition to the above mentioned documents, pursuant to Public Notice DA 04-1705 of the Commission’s policy, in order to comply with the marketing regulations in 47 CFR §2.803 and the importation rules in 47 CFR §2.1204, while ensuring that business sensitive information remains confidential until the actual marketing of newly authorized  Apple Inc. 1 Infinite Loop Cupertino, CA www.apple.com devices, Apple Inc. requests that the Commission withholds the following documents from public viewing for one hundred eighty days after the date the grant of equipment authorization is issued: • External Photographs • Internal Photographs • Test Setup Photographs • User Manual These documents reveal technical and design information that has not been publicly disclosed in marketing materials and is protected by Apple Inc. as confidential and proprietary trade secrets. This information has been disclosed to those required to maintain its confidentiality, and is not customarily disclosed publicly prior to the commercial release of the device. As a result, disclosure of this information by the Commission prior to commercial release would harm Apple Inc. by giving competitors an unfair market advantage. Apple Inc. believes the period of confidentiality requested is necessary to protect the information until the commercial release of a device. It is our understanding that measurement test reports and FCC ID label format cannot be granted as confidential documents and this information will be available for public review once the grant of equipment authorization is issued.
