Overview
The MWS series access point is designed to accommodate
traffic-intensive applications such as multimedia streaming. The access
point is equipped with one or two PoE+ capable LAN ports. With the power
supply unit with the DC jack, the PoE+ LAN port provides a redundant
power supply system to help uninterrupted operations. This device can be
mounted on a ceiling or wall.
The MWS series access point can be installed on a ceiling, wall, or
tabletop. In addition, the AT-MWS600AT and AT-MWS1750AP models
can be installed on a ceiling T-rail.
AT-MWS600AP
and
AT-MWS1750AP
Models
The AT-MWS600AP and AT-MWS1750AP models are dual band access
points with one PoE+ LAN port, which can drain power from the connected
PoE+ switch. Both models share the physical design and size. See

LAN Port
The AT-MWS600AP and AT-MWS1750AP models are equipped with one
PoE+ LAN port; The AT-MWS2533AP model is equipped with two PoE+
LAN ports. The LAN port connects the access point to your Local Area
Network (LAN), typically through an Ethernet switch. Together with the
power supply unit, the LAN port provides a redundant power system. For
more information, see “Redundant Power Supply” on page 20.
Power over
Ethernet Plus
(PoE+)
The MWS series access point supports Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+)
on the LAN port(s). The access point is a PoE+ class 4 powered device
and its maximum power consumption is shown below:
AT-MWS2533AP model: 21 watts
AT-MWS600AP and AT-MWS1750AP models: 11 watts
When the port is connected to a PoE+ Ethernet switch, the access point
receives its power over the network cable that carries the network traffic.
Connector Type The LAN port has an eight-pin RJ45 connector. The port uses four pins at
10 or 100 Mbps and all eight pins at 1000 Mbps. The pin assignments are
listed in “LAN Port” on page 57.
Speed The LAN port can operate at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps. The speed is set
automatically with Auto-Negotiation. You cannot disable Auto-Negotiation
on the port.
Note
The LAN port should be connected to a network device that also
adjusts its speed with Auto-Negotiation. If the network device does
not support Auto-Negotiation, the LAN port operates at 10 Mbps,
which may reduce network performance.
Duplex Mode The LAN port can operate in either half- or full-duplex mode at 10 or 100
Mbps, and full-duplex mode at 1000 Mbps. The port is IEEE
802.3u-compliant and uses Auto-Negotiation to set the duplex mode. (You
cannot disable Auto-Negotiation on the port.)
Note
The LAN port should be connected to a network device that also
sets its duplex mode with Auto-Negotiation. If the network device
does not support Auto-Negotiation, the LAN port operates at
half-duplex mode. This may result in a duplex mode mismatch if the
network device is operating at full duplex.
MWS Series Access Point Installation Guide
19
Automatic MDIX
Detection
The 10/100/1000 Mbps twisted-pair port is IEEE 802.3ab compliant and
features automatic MDIX detection when operating at 10 or 100 Mbps.
(Automatic MDIX detection does not apply to 1000 Mbps.) This feature
automatically configures the port to MDI or MDI-X depending on the wiring
configuration of the port on the Ethernet switch.
You may not disable automatic MDIX detection. For automatic MDIX
detection to work properly, it must also be present on the Ethernet switch.
The LAN port defaults to MDIX if it is connected to a network device that
does not support automatic MDIX detection.
Port Pinouts Refer to Table 13 on page 57 for the port pinouts of the LAN port when it is
operating at 10 or 100 Mbps in the MDI configuration and Table 14 on
page 58 for the MDI-X configuration. Refer to Table 15 on page 58 for the
port pinouts when the port is operating at 1000 Mbps.
Chapter 1: Product Description

Redundant Power Supply
The MWS series access point offers a redundant power supply system. In
addition to the power supply through the DC jack, the access point has
one or two PoE+ capable LAN ports. When the power supply unit on the
access point fails, it switches to the PoE+ port to drain power.
AT-MWS600AP
and
AT-MWS1750AP
Power Supplies
The AT-MWS600AP and AT-MWS1750AP access points are equipped
with one PoE+ capable LAN port. The access points can drain power
through the DC jack. When power from the DC jack is not available, the
access point drains power through the LAN port. Table 1 shows where the
AT-MWS600AP and AT-MWS1750AP access points drain power.
AT-MWS2533AP
Power Supply
The AT-MWS2533AP access point is equipped with two PoE+ capable
LAN ports. The model can drain power through the DC jack. When power
from the DC jack is not available, it drains through the LAN2 port; when
power is not available through the DC jack or LAN2 port, it drains through
the LAN1 port. Table 2 shows where the AT-MWS2533AP model drains
power.

Installing the Access Point on a Celling or Wall
The AT-MWS2533AP access point can be mounted on a celling or wall.
Guidelines for
Installing the
Device on a
Celling or Wall
Review the following guidelines before installing the access point on a
ceiling or wall:
You must provide the four self-tapping screws that secure the
mounting base plate to the ceiling or wall.
The ceiling or wall mounting surface must be of proper material to
accommodate the self-tapping screws, strong enough to support
the weight of the equipment and cables.
Connect the Ethernet cable to the access point before installing the
access point on the ceiling or wall if connecting the Ethernet cable
will be difficult after the access point is installed.
The AT-MWS2533AP access point can be installed on a ceiling or
tabletop. See Figure 7.
Figure 7. Correct Ceiling or Tabletop Installation
The AT-MWS2533AP access point can be mounted on the wall;
however, installing the access point with the LAN ports facing up is
not allowed. See Figure 8 for correct and incorrect wall installation
orientations.

Installing the Access Point
The AT-MWS600AP and AT-MWS1750AP access points can be mounted
on a table, wall, hard-surface celling, or ceiling rail.
Guidelines for
Installing the
AT-MWS600AP
or
AT-MWS1750AP
Access Point
Review the following guidelines before installing the access point:
The ceiling or wall mounting surface must be of proper material to
accommodate the screws, strong enough to support the weight of
the access point and cables.
The ceiling rail must be strong enough to support the weight of the
access point and cables.
Ensure the cables are long enough to connect to the places you
planned before installing the access point. Once the access point
is installed, it may be difficult to change the cables.
Connect the Ethernet cable and power code to the access point
before installing the access point on the ceiling or wall. Connecting
the Ethernet cable and power code may be difficult after the
access point is installed.
The access points can be installed on a table and ceiling. See
Figure 18 for correct orientations.
Figure 18. Correct Orientation on a Tabletop and Ceiling
The access point must be mounted on the wall in the orientations
shown in Figure 19. In other orientations, the access point cannot
have a proper air flow.
Figure 19. Correct Orientations on a Wall
The access point can be attached to installed on two types of
suspended ceiling T-rails. Select one of the ceiling grip clips in the
shipping box for your ceiling rail.
