Installation and Initialization AP-700 User Guide
Hardware Installation
19
• Use a cross-over Ethernet cable or adapter if you intend to connect the unit to a single computer.
3. Optionally, connect an RS-232 cable (not shown) to the RS-232 console port (the right port, labeled “RS-232”).
NOTE: You cannot install the security cover to the AP-700 if an RS-232 cable is connected.
4. Continue with Install the Security Cover (Optional).
Cabling with Power Over Ethernet (PoE)
1. To use PoE, you must use a PoE adapter such as the ORiNOCO 1-Port Active Ethernet DC Injector (ordered
separately). Connect one end of an Ethernet cable (not supplied) to the unit’s LAN port. Connect the other end to the
Data and Power Out port of the DC Injector (see figure).
2. Connect one end of a second Ethernet cable (not supplied) to the Data In port of the DC Injector (see figure). The
other end of the cable should not be connected to another device until after installation is complete:
• Use a straight-through Ethernet cable if you intend to connect the unit to a switch, hub, or patch panel.
• Use a cross-over Ethernet cable or adapter if you intend to connect the unit to a single computer.
3. Optionally, connect an RS-232 cable (not shown) to the RS-232 console port (the right port, labeled “RS-232”).
NOTE: You cannot install the security cover to the AP-700 if an RS-232 cable is connected.
4. Continue with Install the Security Cover (Optional) below.
Install the Security Cover (Optional)
You can optionally install a security cover to deter unauthorized access to the unit. The security cover is a plastic
enclosure that prevents access to the cabling and the Reset and Reload buttons.
1. Open the split end of the security cover just enough to slide the power cable (if not using PoE) and the Ethernet cable
through the opening until they fit inside the straight clamping portion of the cover (see figure). Exercise care as you
slide the cable(s) so you do not accidentally break the cover.
