Red-M 1000AP getting started guide
6
Before you start
Before you start, you need:
• Either a configured Red-M 3000AS access server or
a Linux server with Genos installed
• Category 5 Ethernet cables with RJ-45 connectors
• The DC 12v power adapter (included)
• If mounting on a ceiling or wall:
- Two screws
- A mounting bracket (included)
- A screwdriver
• An Ethernet hub or switch (if installing in a
‘star-wire’ configuration).
Note: The mounting bracket may already be fitted to
the 1000AP during packaging. You may want to remove
the bracket to use the 1000AP on a desktop.
Note: If you use the star-wire configuration from the
Access Point port of a 3000AS, and connect to a switch
or hub’s standard ports, you will need an Ethernet
crossover cable.
