Q9DAPIN0204205Wireless Access Point

AP-200 Series Wireless Access Point Installation Guide The Aruba AP-204 and AP-205 wireless access points support the IEEE 802.11n standard for high-performance WLAN. These access points use MIMO (Multiple- in, Multiple-out) technology and other high-throughput mode techniques to deliver high-performance, 802.11n 2.4 GHz and 802.11ac 5 GHz functionality while simultaneously supporting existing 802.11a/b/g wireless services. The AP- 200 Series access points work only in conjunction with an Aruba Controller. The Aruba AP-200 Series access point provides the following capabilities: Wireless transceiver Protocol-independent networking functionality IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac operation as a wireless access point IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac operation as a wireless air monitor Compatibility with IEEE 802.3at PoE+ and 802.3af PoE Central management configuration and upgrades through a controller Package Contents AP-204 or AP-205 Access Point 9/16" and 15/16” Ceiling Rail Adapters Installation Guide (this document) AP-200 Series Hardware Overview Figure 1 AP-200 Series LEDs LEDs The AP-200 Series is equipped with four LEDs that indicate the status of the various components of the AP. PWR: Indicates whether or not the AP-200 Series is powered-on ENET: Indicates the status of the AP-200 Series’ Ethernet port 5 GHz: Indicates the status of the 802.11a/n radio 2.4 GHz: Indicates the status of the 802.11b/g/n radio Figure 2 AP-200 Series Side View (AP-204 shown) External Antenna Connectors The AP-204 is equipped with two external antenna connectors. The connectors are labeled ANT0 and ANT1, and correspond to radio chains 0 and 1. Figure 3 AP-200 Series Rear Console Port 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 Figure 4. Connect it directly to a terminal or terminal server using an Ethernet cable. Figure 4 Serial Port Pin-Out Ethernet Port AP-200 Series is equipped with one 10/100/1000Base-T (RJ-45) auto-sensing, MDI/MDX wired-network connectivity port. This port supports IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE) compliance, accepting 48 VDC (nominal) as a standard defined Powered Device (PD) from a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) such as a PoE midspan injector, or network infrastructure that supports PoE. The 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports are on the bottom of the AP. These ports have RJ-45 female connectors with the pin-outs shown in Figure 5. Figure 5 Gigabit Ethernet Port Pin-Out DC Power Socket If PoE is not available, an optional Aruba AP AC-DC adapter kit (sold separately) can be used to power the AP-200 Series. Additionally, a locally-sourced AC-to-DC adapter (or any DC source) can be used to power this device, as long as it complies with all applicable local regulatory requirements and the DC interface meets the following specifications: 12 VDC (+/- 5%)/18W Center-positive 1.7/4.0 mm circular plug, 9.5 mm length Reset Button The reset button can be used to return the AP to factory default settings. To reset the AP: 1. Power off the AP. 2. Press and hold the reset button using a small, narrow object, such as a paperclip. 3. Power-on the AP without releasing the reset button. The power LED will flash within 5 seconds. 4. Release the reset button. The power LED will flash again within 15 seconds indicating that the reset is completed. The AP will now continue to boot with the factory default settings. Before You Begin Pre-Installation Network Requirements After WLAN planning is complete and the appropriate products and their placement have been determined, the Aruba controller(s) must be installed and initial setup performed before the Aruba APs are deployed. For initial setup of the controller, refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide for the software version installed on your controller. AP Pre-Installation Checklist Before installing your AP-200 Series AP, ensure that you have the following: CAT5e or better UTP cable of required length One of the following power sources: IEEE 802.3at or 802.3af-compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE) source. The POE source can be any power source equipment (PSE) controller or midspan PSE device Aruba AP AC-DC adapter kit (sold separately) Aruba Controller provisioned on the network: Layer 2/3 network connectivity to your access point One of the following network services: Aruba Discovery Protocol (ADP) DNS server with an “A” record DHCP Server with vendor-specific options Summary of the Setup Process Successful setup of an AP-200 Series access point consists of five tasks, which must be performed in this order: 1. Verify pre-installation connectivity. 2. Identify the specific installation location for each AP. 3. Install each AP. 4. Verify post-installation connectivity. 5. Configure each AP. Verifying Pre-Installation Connectivity Before you install APs in a network environment, make sure that the APs are able to locate and connect to the controller after power on. Specifically, you must verify the following conditions: When connected to the network, each AP is assigned a valid IP address APs are able to locate the controller Refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide for instructions on locating and connecting to the controller. Identifying Specific Installation Locations You can mount the AP-200 Series access point on a wall or on the ceiling. Use the AP placement map generated by Aruba’s Airwave VisualRF Plan software application to determine the proper installation location(s). Each location should be as close as possible to the center of the intended coverage area and should be free from obstructions or obvious sources of interference. These RF absorbers/reflectors/interference sources will impact RF propagation and should have been accounted for during the planning phase and adjusted for in VisualRF plan.
