Special Considerations While Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Points have been engineered for easy installation, there are some guidelines that are very important to the end users: • PLACE Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Points NO MORE THAN 140 FEET APART FROM EACH OTHER. Placing OmniAccess APs further apart almost always results in poor coverage. • DO NOT MOUNT OmniAccess APs OUTSIDE BUILDINGS. • DO NOT MOUNT OmniAccess APs ON BUILDING PERIMETER WALLS UNLESS THE OPERATOR WANTS TO PROVIDE COVERAGE OUTSIDE THE BUILDING. • MAKE SURE THAT THE Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Points ARE INSTALLED VERTICALLY. Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Points ARE DESIGNED TO BE INSTALLED VERTICALLY, hanging from a ceiling, to create the largest coverage area per OmniAccess AP. Hanging the OmniAccess AP from the ceiling provides the best RF coverage. 3/16/04 90-100832-000 Rev 5 © 2004 All Rights Reserved. • DO NOT MOUNT Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point ANTENNAS WITHIN ONE METER (3 FT.) OF ANY METAL OBSTRUCTIONS. THE RF WAVES FROM Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Points ARE BLOCKED AND/OR REFLECTED BY METAL OBJECTS, such as metal HVAC ducts, conduit, pipes, bookcases, elevator shafts, stairwells, and metal walls. REFER TO THE Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Deployment Guide BEFORE MOUNTING OmniAccess APs NEAR METAL OBSTRUCTIONS. • WHEN MOUNTING OmniAccess APs IN THE CORNER OF A RIGHT-ANGLE HALLWAY INTERSECTION, MOUNT THE OmniAccess AP AT A 45-DEGREE ANGLE TO THE TWO HALLWAYS. The OmniAccess AP internal antennas are not omnidirectional, and will cover a larger area if mounted this way. 3/16/04 External-Antenna Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide 90-100832-000 Rev 5Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide Overview Overview This guide is designed to provide you with the information needed to mount OAW-1200BGE and OAW-1200ABGE Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Points and OAW-1200ABGR Alcatel OmniAccess Remote Edge Access Points (OmniAccess 1200R APs). OmniAccess APs and OmniAccess 1200R APs are part of the innovative Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Enterprise Platform (Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless System), and require no manual configuration after they are mounted. This document assumes that a site survey has been performed as described in the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Deployment Guide section in the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide, that OmniAccess AP and OmniAccess AP 1200R locations and mounting options have been selected, and that you have one OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R per indicated location. After the site survey is done, you should have a map indicating the following: • AP and OmniAccess AP 1200R locations. • AP and OmniAccess AP 1200R mounting options: in the middle of a ceiling/hallway, projecting away from the wall, or flat against the wall. • AP and OmniAccess AP 1200R power options: power supplied by the AC-to-DC power supply orderable from the factory, or Power over Ethernet (PoE) from the OmniAccess Wireless Switch, another network device, or a PoE injector/hub (usually located in a wiring closet). If you do not have a map, make one so you can record the MAC addresses from each location and return them to the to the person who is planning or managing this wireless network. Refer to the following sections to install the OmniAccess APs. Note: When mounting OmniAccess APs and OmniAccess 1200R APs, make sure to maintain a 20 cm (8 in.) separation between the OmniAccess APs or OmniAccess 1200R APs and bystanders to comply with FCC RF exposure regulations.

If you are unable to prepare your OmniAccess AP for deployment, this Step also describes RMA (Return Material Authorization) procedures. Note: Perform either of the following two procedures on each OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R BEFORE deploying the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R in its final location. • Preparing a Version 1.2 OmniAccess AP for installation in a Version 2.0 Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless System • Preparing a Version 2.0 OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R or Alternate Preparing a Version 2.0 OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R for installation in a Version 2.0 Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless System If you are unable to perform either of previous procedures, refer to the RMA Procedures section in the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide. Preparing a Version 1.2 OmniAccess AP Preparing a Version 1.2 OmniAccess AP If your OmniAccess AP has Alcatel Wireless Operating System 1.2 or an earlier version loaded on it, or if you do not know what version the AP has loaded on it, use this procedure. If your AP is a OmniAccess AP 1200R or has Alcatel Wireless Operating System 2.0 or later loaded on it, use the Preparing a Version 2.0 OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R procedure below. Note: This procedure assumes that you are preparing a version 1.2 OmniAccess AP to interoperate with a version 2.0 Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. When you are preparing a version 1.2 OmniAccess AP to interoperate with a version 1.2 Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, use the procedure found in the version 1.2 Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide. Configuration Setup Configuration Setup Does My Configuration Qualify for this Procedure? • Does My Configuration Qualify for this Procedure? You must have a version 2.0 Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Switch or Appliance on its own subnet that can be reconfigured back and forth between Layer 2 and Layer 3 LWAPP operation. If you do not have a spare or depot Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance that can be reconfigured back and forth between Layer 2 and Layer 3 operation, refer to RMA Procedures later in this document to RMA your version 1.2 OmniAccess APs. 3/16/04 Step 2: Configuring the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R Before Installation 90-100832-000 Rev 5Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide • Alternatively, you may have a version 2.0 Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Switch or Appliance that is part of a mobility group that can be reconfigured back and forth between Layer 2 and Layer 3 operation. If you do not have a mobility group of Alcatel OmniAccess Switches and Appliances that can be reconfigured back and forth between Layer 2 and Layer 3 operation, refer to RMA Procedures later in this document to RMA your version 1.2 OmniAccess APs. • If your version 1.2 OmniAccess AP(s) cannot be configured for any other reason using the following procedure, refer to RMA Procedures in the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide. Configuration Steps for an OmniAccess AP Configuration Steps for an OmniAccess AP 1. Configure the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance in LWAPP Layer 2 Mode and make sure its DS Port is connected to the network. Use CLI, Web Browser and/or ACS procedures as described in the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch and Appliance Quick Installation Guide and the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide. Make sure AP ports are available (either Direct-Connect Mode or Appliance Mode). Set the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance as the Master, so new OmniAccess APs always associate with it. Refer to the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide for other settings. (Note that Layer 3 and Layer 2 LWAPP operation can be switched back and forth as described in the Solutions section of the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide.) 2. Take the AP out of the box and plug it into a front-panel 10Base-T connector on the Master Switch (Direct-Connect mode), or through the same subnet that Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance is on (Appliance Mode). 3. Apply power to the AP: 4. Use 802.3af-compliant Power Over Ethernet (PoE) from the OmniAccess Wireless Switch or from an orderable inline power injector. If you do not have PoE available, use an orderable external AC-to-48 VDC Power Supply plugged into the side of the AP. After powering up the AP, the RED Alarm LED comes on for a short period (about 15-20 seconds) and then all the LEDs blink sequentially back and forth, indicating that the AP is trying to find an Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance to connect to. This can continue for up to five minutes. If the AP remains in this mode for more than five minutes, the AP is unable to find the Master Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. Check the connection between the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance and make sure the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance are on the same subnet. If the power light does not come on, check the power (it can be powered either with Power over Ethernet or a from an orderable AP External Power Supply. Make sure that a DHCP server is configured in the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance for the Management Interface using the CLI, Web Browser, or ACS interface, and that the DHCP server is operating correctly. Once the AP finds the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, it attempts to download the new Alcatel Wireless Operating System code if the AP code version differs from the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance code version. While this is happening, the LEDs on the top of the AP blink on and off together. Once the Alcatel Wireless Operating System code download is successful, the AP reboots. The GREEN LED turns on and the two YELLOW/AMBER/ORANGE LEDs indicate the states of the 802.11a and 802.11b/g networks. If any part of the network is disabled in the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, the corresponding YELLOW/AMBER/ORANGE LED remains off. 3/16/04 Step 2: Configuring the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R Before Installation 90-100832-000 Rev 5Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide - Note that the Red LED can light for a short period (10-20 seconds) when the AP reboots. If the RED LED comes on AND STAYS ON for more than a minute, disconnect the AP and call Alcatel Technical Support. From the CLI, Web Browser or ACS interface, configure the AP with its Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance name as described in the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide. If you will be using the AP in a mobility group, set the mobility group name using the CLI, Web Browser or ACS interface. If required, use the CLI, Web Browser or ACS interface to customize the AP-specific 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g network settings. Once again, the two YELLOW/AMBER/ ORANGE LEDs indicate the states of the 802.11a and 802.11b/g networks. If any part of the network is disabled, the corresponding YELLOW/AMBER/ORANGE LED remains off. 5. If everything works (the GREEN LED is on and the RED LED is off), disconnect the AP and take it to its final destination and install it as described in this document. If your OmniAccess AP fails this visual test, refer to RMA Procedures in the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide to return your OmniAccess APs. 6. When you have installed and powered up the AP in its final destination, verify that the LEDs are in the same state they were in at the end of Step 4. If no LEDs are on, the AP is most likely not receiving power. If the LEDs blink sequentially back and forth for more than five minutes, the AP is unable to find its Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. Check the connection between the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, and make sure the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance are either on the same subnet or that the AP has a route back to its Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. If the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R is not on the same subnet as the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, make sure there is a DHCP server on the same subnet as the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R. Also, make sure that the route between the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance can process IP fragmented packets. After you have prepared all OmniAccess APs, reconfigure the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance so it is not the Master. A Master Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance should only be used for configuring OmniAccess APs and not in a working network. After completing Step 2: Configuring the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R Before Installation for all OmniAccess APs and OmniAccess 1200R APs, continue with Step 3: Preparing Mounting Locations. Preparing a Version 2.0 OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R Preparing a Version 2.0 OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R If your OmniAccess AP has Alcatel Wireless Operating System 2.0 or a later version (which includes all OmniAccess 1200R APs) loaded on it, continue with this procedure. If your AP has Alcatel Wireless Operating System 1.2 or earlier loaded on it, or if you do not know what version the AP has loaded, use the Preparing a Version 1.2 OmniAccess AP procedure above. Note: This procedure assumes that you are preparing a version 2.0 OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R to interoperate with a version 2.0 Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. When you are preparing a version 1.2 OmniAccess AP to interoperate with a version 1.2 Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, use the procedure found in the version 1.2 Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide. 3/16/04 Preparing a Version 2.0 OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R 90-100832-000 Rev 5Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide Configuration Setup Configuration Setup Does My AP Qualify for this Procedure? • Does My AP Qualify for this Procedure?

If your OmniAccess AP fails this visual test, refer to RMA Procedures in the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide to return your OmniAccess APs. Note: When you are installing a OmniAccess AP 1200R or a Layer 3 OmniAccess AP on a different subnet than the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, MAKE SURE that a DHCP server is available on the subnet where you will be installing the AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R, and that the subnet has a route back to the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. Also make sure that the route back to the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Switch or Appliance has destination UDP ports 12222 and 12223 open for LWAPP communications. Ensure the route back to the Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance allows IP packet fragments. Finally, make sure that if address translation is used, that the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance have a static 1-to-1 NAT to an outside address. (Port Address Translation is not supported.) 6. When you have installed and powered up the AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R in its final destination, verify that the LEDs are in the same state they were in at the end of Step 4. If no LEDs are on, the AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R is most likely not receiving power. If all the LEDs blink sequentially back and forth for more than five minutes, the AP is unable to find its Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. Check the connection between the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, and make sure the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance are either on the same subnet or that the AP has a route back to its Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. Note that the OmniAccess 1200R APs at each remote location must be on the same subnet to allow client roaming. Also, if the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R is not on the same subnet as the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, make sure there is a DHCP server on the same subnet as the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R. 3/16/04 Preparing a Version 2.0 OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R 90-100832-000 Rev 5Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide After you have prepared all OmniAccess APs, reconfigure the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance so it is not the Master.

Note: When you are installing a OmniAccess AP 1200R or a Layer 3 OmniAccess AP on a different subnet than the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, MAKE SURE that a DHCP server is available on the subnet where you will be installing the AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R, and that the subnet has a route back to the Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. Also make sure that the route back to the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Switch or Appliance has destination UDP ports 12222 and 12223 open for LWAPP communications. Ensure the route back to the Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance allows IP packet fragments. Finally, make sure that if address translation is used, that the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance have a static 1-to-1 NAT to an outside address. (Port Address Translation is not supported.) 9. When you have installed and powered up the AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R in its final destination, verify that the LEDs are in the same state they were in at the end of Step 7. If no LEDs are on, the AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R is most likely not receiving power. If all the LEDs blink sequentially back and forth for more than five minutes, the AP is unable to find its Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. Check the connection between the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, and make sure the AP and the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance are either on the same subnet or that the AP has a route back to its Primary Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance. Note that the OmniAccess 1200R APs at each remote location must be on the same subnet to allow client roaming. Also, if the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R is not on the same subnet as the Alcatel OmniAccess Switch or Appliance, make sure that a DHCP server is accessible on the same subnet as the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R. After completing Step 2: Configuring the OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R Before Installation for all OmniAccess APs and OmniAccess 1200R APs, continue with Step 3: Preparing Mounting Locations. 3/16/04 Alternate Preparing a Version 2.0 OmniAccess AP or OmniAccess AP 1200R 90-100832-000 Rev 5Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide 12 Step 3: Preparing Mounting Locations Step 3: Preparing Mounting Locations On your map, you should have the OmniAccess AP locations, mounting options, and power options. • Find the required mounting locations. • Use the ceiling-mount base to mark the wall or ceiling locations for sheet metal, drywall, or other screws. Make sure you leave enough space around the OmniAccess AP and base to plug the CAT-5 cable, optional external antenna cable(s), optional power supply cable, and optional Kensington MicroSaver Security Cable into the sides of the OmniAccess AP.

When the OmniAccess AP will be mounted below the ceiling using the ceiling mount or wall mount brackets, you may have to drill a hole into the ceiling plenum to run the CAT-5 cable to the wiring closet. When the CAT-5 cable cannot be run through the ceiling plenum, find another path to route the cable from the OmniAccess AP to the wiring closet. When the OmniAccess AP will be mounted above the ceiling using the ceiling mount or wall mount brackets, run the CAT-5 cable to the wiring closet through the ceiling plenum. When the CAT-5 cable cannot be run through the ceiling plenum, find another path to route the cable from the OmniAccess AP to the wiring closet. • When you are powering the OmniAccess AP from AC power, route the power supply cable from the AC convenience outlet to the OmniAccess AP. Make sure you secure the AC power plug so it will be difficult for people to pull on the power cord or unplug the power supply from the AC power outlet. • When you are powering the OmniAccess AP from a PoE source (OmniAccess Wireless Switch, another network device, or a PoE injector/hub), you do not need to route a separate power cable to the OmniAccess AP, because the OmniAccess AP will receive its power across the CAT-5 Ethernet cable. Return the power supply to the wireless network planner/manager. About External Antennas • About External Antennas Refer to the OmniAccess AP External and Internal Antennas section in the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide for an overview of the external 802.11a and 802.11b/g external antennas available for use with the OmniAccess APs. Note: As described in the Internal-Antenna Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide, the OAW-1200BG and OAW-1200ABG OmniAccess APs are designed to be used exclusively with the internal high-gain antennas, and have no jacks for external antennas. Note: Refer to the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless System Release Notes for 802.11a external antenna information. Contact Alcatel Internetworking, Inc. for a list of FCC-approved 802.11a and 802.11b/g external antennas. • When you are attaching external antennas to the (Part Number TBD), OAW-1200BGE, or OAW-1200ABGE OmniAccess AP, use cables with female reverse-TNC connectors to connect antennas to the ports on the side of the OmniAccess AP. See the following figure for antenna port markings. 3/16/04 Planning Notes 90-100832-000 Rev 5Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide 24 Figure - OmniAccess AP External Antenna Port Markings About Mounting Options About Mounting Options Note: Because the OmniAccess AP internal antennas have been designed to reduce inter-floor interference, it is strongly recommended that you mount the OmniAccess AP standing or hanging straight up or down. Note: You can mount the OmniAccess APs below the ceiling using the ceiling mount base or wall mount brackets, but the OmniAccess APs perform best when mounted below the ceiling. • When you are mounting the OmniAccess AP in the middle of a ceiling, or hallway, you will typically use the color-coordinated ceiling-mount base to stabilize the OmniAccess AP after it is mounted. Use the mounting base to mark the sheet metal, drywall, or other screw locations. The mounting base attaches to the bottom of the OmniAccess AP with two supplied screws, and then the assembly slides and locks onto two sheet metal, drywall, or other screws. • When you are mounting the OmniAccess AP out from a wall (flat sides along the room or hallway), use the projection-mount L-bracket supplied with the OmniAccess AP. Use the L-bracket to mark the sheet metal, drywall, or other screw locations. 3/16/04 Planning Notes 90-100832-000 Rev 5Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Access Point Quick Installation Guide 25 • When you are mounting the OmniAccess AP against a wall (flat Side A toward the inside of the building), use the flush-mount bracket supplied with the OmniAccess AP. The flush-mount L-bracket is the one with one long and one short leg. Use the L-bracket to mark the sheet metal, drywall, or other screw locations. About Physical Security About Physical Security Regardless of mounting, the OmniAccess AP can be secured with a Kensington MicroSaver Security Cable.
