conﬁgure the XAP-1020.

The XAP-1020 uses 36-57VDC power. The POE injector power supply requires AC

100V ~ 240V, 50Hz ~ 60Hz.

Temperature of the operating environment: 32F~131F (0C~55C). Be sure to place

the access point away from heat generating devices.

Humidity of the operating environment: 5%-95% non-condensing. Do not place

the access point in an extremely dirty or damp location.

Keep the access point away from strong electromagnetic ﬁelds (i.e. Air

Conditioner compressors, ﬂuorescent light ballasts, CRT monitors/televisions,

etc.), and free from vibration, dust and direct sun light.

4.5 Hardware Installation

4.5.1 Access Point Placement

This XAP-1020 implements Luxul’s Circular Polarized directional antenna technol-

ogy. For maximum efﬁciency, it should be aimed towards the area to which you

would like to provide coverage. With this in mind, the ideal placement option is

usually on an outside wall pointed into the coverage area; or in a multi-level instal-

lation, on the top ﬂoor ceiling pointed downwards.

XAP-1040 Suggested Mounting Location

4.5.2 Mounting the Access Point on a Wall or Ceiling

The XAP-1020 can be mounted directly to a wall or ceiling; or the mounting bracket

included with this kit can be used to mount the access point for more ﬂexible

directional coverage. Once the mounting location has been selected, installation

is as simple as plugging the Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 connector and then

mounting the access point directly to the wall or mounting bracket as shown in the

diagram next page:
