Quick Start Guide Cisco WAP571E Wireless-AC/N Premium Dual Radio Outdoor Access Point
Welcome Thank you for choosing the Cisco WAP571E Wireless-AC/N Premium Dual Radio Outdoor Access Point. The Cisco WAP571E is an outdoor dual radio 802.11ac + 802.11n access point. This guide is designed to familiarize you with the general layout of the access point, describe how to deploy the device in your network, and describe how to configure the device. Your access point has more features and functionality than what is described in this guide. For additional information, see the Administration Guide.
2 Cisco WAP571E Wireless-AC/N Premium Dual Radio Outdoor Access Point Features Front Panel The front panel of the device consists of a single system LED. For a full description of the colors of the light and its indications, see Verifying the Hardware Installation. A Kensington lock slot is found under the lights. Back Panel The back panel of the device has a water proof RJ-45 Ethernet port and reset bottom. Facing the side of the device, the right port (labeled "ETH0/PD") is an 802.3at and 802.
3 Mounting the Cisco WAP571E WirelessAC/N Premium Dual Radio Outdoor Access Point You can place your access point at an outdoor location and mount it on a wall or pole. Placement Tips • Ambient Temperature—To prevent the access point from overheating, do not operate it in an area that exceeds an ambient temperature of 122°F (55°C). • Mechanical Loading—The device should be level, stable, and secure to prevent it from sliding or shifting out of position.
WARNING Insecure mounting might damage the device or cause injury. Cisco is not responsible for damages incurred by insecure wall or pole mounting. Pole-mounting: To mount the Cisco WAP 571E device on a pole: STEP 1 Fix Holder_1 and GND wire on WAP571E by 4 M6*10 screws and screw washers. GND wire can provide better ESD protection. STEP 2 Fix Holder_2 and Holder_3 on Pole by 4 M6*130 screws and screw washers. STEP 3 Fix WAP571E and Holder_1 to Holder_2 by 4 M6*10 Screws and screw washers.
Wall-mounting: To mount the Cisco WAP 571E device on a wall: STEP 1 Fix Holder_1 and GND wire on WAP571E by 4 M6*10 screws and screw washers. GND wire can provide better ESD protection. STEP 2 Fix HOLDER_3 on wall by 4 anchors.
STEP 3 Fix Holder_2 and Holder_3 by 4 M6*10 screws and screw washers. STEP 4 Fix WAP571E and Holder_1 to Holder_2 by 4 M6*10 Screws and screw washers.

4 Connecting the Cisco WAP571E WirelessAC/N Premium Dual Radio Outdoor Access Point You can perform the initial configuration using either a wired or wireless connection. The default configuration of the WAP 571 has the Wi-Fi radio turned on. To connect the WAP 571E to the wired network: STEP 1 Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of a PoE switch. STEP 2 Connect the other end of the network Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port (PoE) of the wireless access point.
5 Verifying the Hardware Installation To verify the hardware installation, complete the following tasks: • Check the cable connections. • Check the state of the indicator lights. Label Power Activity Off Solid (Green) Solid (Blue) Flashing (Blue) Solid (Red) Description The WAP571E is out of power. The Cisco WAP571E is normal; no wireless client connected. The Cisco WAP571E is normal; at least one wireless client connected. The Cisco WAP571E is upgrading the firmware.
Getting Started with the Configuration 6 To configure the wireless access points, you can either use Ethernet or wireless. Please follow these steps to access the Wizard and then the web-based configuration utility from your computer by Ethernet: STEP 1 Ethernet: Connect the wireless access point to the same network (IP subnet) as your computer. The factory default IP address configuration of the access points is DHCP. Make sure your DHCP server is running and can be reached.
STEP 5 Enter the default user name of cisco and password of cisco in the User Name and Password fields. STEP 6 Click Login. The Wireless Access Point Setup Wizard appears. STEP 7 Follow the Setup Wizard instructions to finish the WAP device installation. We strongly recommend that you use the Setup Wizard for the first installation. The Setup Wizard turns on the Wi-Fi radio, which allows you to connect wirelessly. For more advanced configurations, see the Administration Guide.
Suggested Next Steps 7 Smart PoE Smart PoE is designed for detecting the power level from the PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) side; it does not matter whether 802.3at or 802.3af mode, the WAP571 will operate at the appropriate mode automatically. Smart PoE ensures that the WAP571E remains functional once powered by 802.3af PSE, and intelligently to adjust operations below: • Second Ethernet port disabled • 2.4-GHz 802.11n radio in 2x2:2 spatial-stream mode • 5-GHz 802.
If it fails, you should get a reply similar to the following: Pinging 192.0.2.10 with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Possible Cause of Installation Failure No Power • Power up the switch and your computer if they are turned off. • Make sure your PoE switch is powered on and the lights indicate that you have a link. See Verifying the Hardware Installation. • Verify that the devices on your network are not plugged into a switchable outlet.
If the wireless access points do not receive a DHCP response (there is no DHCP server on your network) after 60 seconds, the access points will fallback to the following default static IP address: 192.168.1.245 and a default mask of 255.255.255.0. To reach that IP address, be sure that your computer is on the 192.168.1.xxx network.
