Component Description
Antennas
The access point includes two antennas for wireless
communications. The signal transmitted from both antennas is
identical, but only the best signal received on one of the antennas
is used. The antennas transmit the outgoing signal as a toroidal
sphere, so the antennas should be adjusted to different angles to
provide better coverage. For further information, see “Positioning
the Antennas” on page 2-2.
LED Indicators
The access point includes
four status LED indicators, as
described in the following
figure and table.
LED Status Description
PWR On Indicates that power is being supplied.
Flashing Indicates -
• running a self-test
• loading software program
Flashing
(Prolonged)
Indicates system errors
Ethernet
Link
On Indicates a valid 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
cable link.
Flashing Indicates that the access point is
transmitting or receiving data on a
10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN. Flashing
rate is proportional to your network
activity.
