Installing the Access Point

Step 3: Deploy the Access Point

In this step, you will place the Access Point in a suitable location on the network and

connect it to a power source and to your network environment.

1. Choose a Location for the Access Point

You can install the Access Point on a flat surface (for example, on a desktop or tabletop)

or mount it on a wall or ceiling. When choosing a location for the Access Point, ensure

that the location:

■ Allows easy viewing of the LEDs and access to the connectors, if necessary.

■ Is centrally located to the wireless clients that will be connecting to the Access

Point. A suitable location might be on top of a cabinet or similar furniture to

optimize wireless connections to clients in both horizontal and vertical directions,

allowing wider coverage.

When positioning your Access Point, ensure that:

■ It is out of direct sunlight and away from sources of heat.

■ Cabling is away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures, and sources of

electrical noise such as radios, transmitters and broadband amplifiers.

■ There are no thick walls or metal shielding between the Access Point and the

wireless stations.

■ Water or moisture cannot enter the case of the unit.

■ Air flow around the unit and through the vents in the side of the case is not

restricted.

Review the recommendations in “

Determine the Optimal Mounting Location and

Orientation” on page 29 for help in choosing a suitable location for the Access Point.

2. Connect the Access Point to a Power Source and

the Network

Once you have placed the Access Point at its installation location, you are ready to

connect it to a power source and the network.

NOTE: If your ZoneFlex model supports PoE, you can also supply power to the AP

from a PoE switch or injector. For information on how to make the PoE connections,

refer to the documentation that was shipped with the PoE switch or injector.

CAUTION: If you will be using PoE, you must use a Cat-5e or better Ethernet cable

for the PoE connection.

1. Connect the power jack to the power connector on the rear panel of your ZoneFlex

Access Point.
