9. Once the AP is fastened onto the wall mount, insert the T8H Torx Security Screw into the

hole located on the upper-right edge of the wall mount and tighten.

10. If not using PoE, connect the AC-DC power adapter (sold separately) to the DC power

socket located on the side of the AP.

Verifying Post-Installation Connectivity

The System Status LED on the AP can be used to verify that the AP is receiving power and

initializing successfully (LED). Refer to the Dell Networking W-Series ArubaOS Quick Start

Guide for further details on verifying post-installation network connectivity.

Configuring the AP

AP Provisioning/Reprovisioning

Provisioning parameters are unique to each AP. These local AP parameters are initially

configured on the controller which are then pushed out to the AP and stored on the AP itself. It

is recommended that the provisioning settings be configured via the ArubaOS Web UI only.

Refer to the Dell Networking W-Series ArubaOS User Guide for complete details.

AP Configuration

Configuration parameters are network or controller specific and are configured and stored on

the controller. Network configuration settings are pushed out to the AP(s) but remain stored

on the controller.

Configuration settings can be configured via the ArubaOS Web UI or CLI. Refer to Dell

Networking W-Series ArubaOS User Guide and/or the Dell Networking W-Series ArubaOS CLI

Reference Guide for details.

Equipment not suitable for use in the presence of flammable mixtures.

FCC Class B Part 15

This device complies with Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules. Operation is

subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference.

2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired

operation

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to

Part 15 of the FCC Rules. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if

not installed and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference harmful

to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause interference, which can be determined by turning the equipment

off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

 Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

 Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

 Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is

connected.

 Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or TV technician for help.

EU Regulatory Conformance

This product is CE marked according to the provisions of the R & TTE Directive (1999/5/

EC) - CE(!). Dell hereby declares that the APINH205 device model is in compliance with

Canadian Statement

Complies with the Class B limits for radio noise emissions as set out in the interference-causing equipment

standard entitled “Digital Apparatus,” ICES-003 of Industry Canada.

Cet apareil numerique de la classe B respecte toutes les exigencies du Reglement sur le materiel brouilleur

du Canada.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and

maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio

interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent

isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2)

this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the

device.

Conformément aux réglementations d’Industrie Canada, cet émetteur-récepteur radio doit être utilisé

uniquement avec une antenne dont le type et le gain maximal doivent être approuvés par Industrie

Canada. Pour réduire les interférences radio potentielles, le type d’antenne et son gain doivent être choisis

de façon à ce que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (PIRE) ne dépasse pas les valeurs nécessaires

à une communication efficace.

Ce périphérique est conforme aux règlements RSS exempts de licence d’Industrie Canada. L’utilisation de

ce périphérique est soumise aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) ce périphérique ne doit pas provoquer

d’interférences, et (2) ce périphérique doit accepter toute interférence, y compris les interférences
