Airespace Access Point Quick Installation Guide

System Release 1.1

Overview

This guide is designed to provide you with the information needed to mount

Airespace Access Points (APs). Airespace APs are part of the innovative

Airespace Wireless Enterprise Platform (Airespace System), and require no

configuration after they are mounted; the end user configures Airespace APs

through the Airespace Wireless Switch.

This document assumes that a site survey has been performed as described

in the Airespace Access Point Site Survey Guide section in the Airespace

Product Guide, that AP locations and mounting options have been selected,

and that you have one Airespace AP per indicated location.

After the site survey is done, you should have a map indicating the following:

• AP locations.

• AP mounting options: in the middle of a ceiling/hallway, in the ceiling

plenum, projecting away from the wall, or flat against the wall.

• AP power options: power supplied by the AC-to-DC power converter

orderable from the factory, or Power over Ethernet (PoE) from the

Airespace Wireless Switch, another switched network device, or a PoE

injector/hub (usually located in a wiring closet).

If you do not have a map, make one so you can return the MAC addresses

from each location to the person who is planning or managing this wireless

network.

Refer to the following sections to install the Airespace APs.

Note: When mounting Airespace APs, make sure to maintain a 20 cm

(8 in.) separation between the Airespace APs and bystanders to

comply with FCC RF exposure regulations. Refer to the FCC State-

ments section in the Airespace Product Guide for more FCC

information.
