AP-220 Series Wireless Access Point
Installation Guide
The Aruba AP-224 and AP-225 wireless access points support the IEEE 802.11ac
standard for high-performance WLAN. This access point uses MIMO (Multiple-in,
Multiple-out) technology and other high-throughput mode techniques to deliver
high-performance, 802.11n 2.4 GHz and 802.11ac 5 GHz functionality while
simultaneously supporting existing legacy wireless services. The AP-220 Series
access point works only in conjunction with an Aruba Controller.
External Antenna Connectors
The AP-224 is equipped with three external antenna connectors. The connectors
are labeled ANT0, ANT1, and ANT2, and correspond to radio chains 0, 1, and 2.
defined Powered Device (PD) from a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) such as
a PoE midspan injector, or network infrastructure that supports PoE.
When operating on 802.3af, only the port connected to power is
usable. For example, if the source of power is connected to ENET
0, ENET 1 will not work.

The reset button can be used to return the AP to factory default settings. To reset
the AP:
4. Verify post-installation connectivity.
2. Identify the specific installation location for each AP.
Inform your supplier if there are any incorrect, missing, or damaged parts. If
possible, retain the carton, including the original packing materials. Use
these materials to repack and return the unit to the supplier if needed.
5. Configure each AP.
1. Power off the AP.
Aruba Networks, Inc., in compliance with governmental requirements, has
designed the AP-220 Series access points so that only authorized network
administrators can change the settings. For more information about AP
configuration, refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide and ArubaOS User
Guide.
2. Press and hold the reset button using a small, narrow object, such as a
paperclip.

4. Release the reset button.
The power LED will flash again within 15 seconds indicating that the reset is
completed. The AP will now continue to boot with the factory default settings.
DC Power Socket
If PoE is not available, an optional Aruba AP AC-DC adapter kit (sold separately)
can be used to power the AP-220 Series.
Additionally, a locally-sourced AC-to-DC adapter (or any DC source) can be used
to power this device, as long as it complies with all applicable local regulatory
requirements and the DC interface meets the following specifications:

Access points are radio transmission devices and as such are subject to
governmental regulation. Network administrators responsible for the
configuration and operation of access points must comply with local
broadcast regulations. Specifically, access points must use channel
assignments appropriate to the location in which the access point will be
used.
Verifying Pre-Installation Connectivity
Before you install APs in a network environment, make sure that the APs are
able to locate and connect to the controller after power on.
Specifically, you must verify the following conditions:

FCC Statement: Improper termination of access points installed in the
United States configured to non-US model controllers will be in violation of
the FCC grant of equipment authorization. Any such willful or intentional
violation may result in a requirement by the FCC for immediate termination
of operation and may be subject to forfeiture (47 CFR 1.80).

Refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide for instructions on locating and
connecting to the controller.
Identifying Specific Installation Locations
You can mount the AP-220 Series access point on a wall or on the ceiling. Use the
AP placement map generated by Aruba’s RF Plan software application to
determine the proper installation location(s). Each location should be as close
as possible to the center of the intended coverage area and should be free from
obstructions or obvious sources of interference. These RF absorbers/reflectors/
interference sources will impact RF propagation and should have been
accounted for during the planning phase and adjusted for in RF plan.
Identifying Known RF Absorbers/Reflectors/Interference
Sources
Identifying known RF absorbers, reflectors, and interference sources while in
the field during the installation phase is critical. Make sure that these sources are
taken into consideration when you attach an AP to its fixed location. Examples
of sources that degrade RF performance include:


Pre-Installation Network Requirements
After WLAN planning is complete and the appropriate products and their
placement have been determined, the Aruba controller(s) must be installed and
initial setup performed before the Aruba APs are deployed.
For initial setup of the controller, refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide for
the software version installed on your controller.
When connected to the network, each AP is assigned a valid IP address
APs are able to locate the controller

Configuring the AP-220 Series
AP Provisioning/Reprovisioning
Using the Ceiling Rail Adapter
The AP-220 Series ships with two ceiling rail adapters for 9/16” and 15/16” ceiling
rails. Additional wall mount adapters amd ceiling rail adapters for other rail
styles are available as accessory kits.
Make sure the AP fits securely on the ceiling tile rail when hanging
the device from the ceiling, because poor installation could cause it
to fall onto people or equipment.
1. Pull the necessary cables through a prepared hole in the ceiling tile near
where the AP will be placed.
2. Place the adapter against the back of the AP with the adapter at an angle of
approximately 30 degrees to the tabs (see Figure 6).
Provisioning parameters are unique to each AP. These local AP parameters are
initially configured on the controller which are then pushed out to the AP and
stored on the AP itself. Aruba recommends that provisioning settings be
configured via the ArubaOS Web UI only. Refer to the ArubaOS User Guide for
complete details.
Aruba products also comply with the EU Restriction of
Hazardous Substances Directive 2011/65/EC (RoHS). EU
RoHS restricts the use of specific hazardous materials in
the manufacture of electrical and electronic equipment.
Specifically, restricted materials under the RoHS Directive are Lead (including
Solder used in printed circuit assemblies), Cadmium, Mercury, Hexavalent
Chromium, and Bromine. Some Aruba products are subject to the exemptions
listed in RoHS Directive Annex 7 (Lead in solder used in printed circuit
assemblies). Products and packaging will be marked with the “RoHS” label
shown at the left indicating conformance to this Directive.
AP Configuration
Safety and Regulatory Compliance
Configuration parameters are network or controller specific and are configured
and stored on the controller. Network configuration settings are pushed out to
the AP(s) but remain stored on the controller.
Aruba Networks provides a multi-language document that contains countryspecific restrictions and additional safety and regulatory information for all
Aruba access points. This document can be viewed or downloaded from the
following location: www.arubanetworks.com/safety_addendum
Configuration settings can be configured via the ArubaOS Web UI, ArubaOS CLI,
or Aruba MMS. Refer to their respective guides for further details: the ArubaOS
User Guide or Aruba Mobility Management System User Guide.
