Connecting the Switch and Access Points
The Extricom switch is connected to the wired LAN and to the APs that are located throughout the
enterprise.
To connect a switch and access points:
1. Using CAT-5e/6 100/1000Mbps cable, connect the RJ-45 LAN1 connector located on the front
panel of the switch (refer to Figure 16) to the LAN switch.
2. Using a CAT-5e/6 cable, connect each AP (refer to Figure 16) to one of the switch’s RJ-45
WLAN connectors.

If an
AP
must be
located over 100 meters from the switch, an Extricom Range
Extender must be used, which enables up to an additional 100m, for a total switch to
AP distance of up to 200m.
Switch to AP distances of up to 700m can be supported on GbE connections by using
Extricom EXMC-1000 media converters.
3. Connect the power cable to the power connector located on the rear panel of the switch, and
plug the other end of the power cable into a power source.
4. Verify that the Power LEDs on both the switch and connected APs are green.
