XR520H Quick Installation Guide
The XR520H Hardened Wireless Access Point provides Xirrus
wireless technology in a hardened case for installation outdoors and
in other harsh environments. This guide describes how to install the
XR520H on a pole or wall and execute the initial power up of the
Access Point. The pole or wall can be a structure that is installed at
ground level or on a roof. The XR520H is not compatible with other
Xirrus mounting options. For additional information, see the Wireless
Array User’s Guide.
This document is intended ONLY for XR520H model Access Points. For other XR
models please see the Quick Installation Guide for that model series.
1) You Need the Following Items

Accessory Kit (included in each Wireless Access Point carton) includes:
Mounting bracket and mounting screw
Grounding cable and short ground wire
Watertight RJ connector assembly

Appropriate tools, bands, screws, and/or anchors required for the desired mounting location
(not provided with the Access Point).

Workstation with a Web browser to configure the Wireless Access Point.

RJ-45 Ethernet connection(s) to your wired network.

Power—XR520H Access Points are powered via Power over Gigabit Ethernet (PoGE) using
an outdoor-rated Ethernet Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable that also carries data traffic. Only Xirrussupplied power injectors, or 802.3af or 802.3at PoE-compliant switches, may be used to
power the XR520H . The XR520H is powered by one injector port rated at 20W or higher.
The Xirrus PoGE Power Injector requires an AC outlet. See the PoGE Installation Guide for
more information.
NOTE: Xirrus PoGE Injectors must be installed and used indoors.
2) Choose a Suitable Location
The XR520H is tested to IP65 water proof and dust proof requirements to protect against
severely wet and dusty environments. For optimal placement, we recommend that a predictive
survey be performed by a qualified Xirrus partner.

Choose a location that is not subjected to submersion.

Direct sunlight may raise the effective ambient temperature many degrees above the air
temperature. It is best to choose a location that has some level of protection from the sun.
-1 -
XR5 2 0 H Qu ick I n st a lla t ion Gu ide

The maximum cable length between the XR520H and the RJ-45 Ethernet Network is 100
meters. The PoGE Injector is not a repeater, so its location will not increase this distance.

The XR520H can operate from a Wireless Distribution System (WDS) link. However, the
unit will need to be configured via the Ethernet connection prior to mounting and power
must still be supplied via the RJ-45 Ethernet connector.

Keep the unit away from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise—at least 3
to 6 feet (1 to 2 meters).
3) Prepare the Mounting Location
Part of the mechanical installation is to ensure that the Access Point is grounded to earth
ground to dissipate any static electric charge that may develop due to wind.

Determine a good electrical earth ground point near the Access Point mounting location. If
an earth ground point is not available, consult an electrician to have one installed.

Crimp a terminal lug to a sufficient length of 16 gauge wire to reach from the mounted
Access Point to the earth ground point.

Before the Access Point is attached to a wall or pole, secure the terminal lug to the Access
Point with the #6 screw provided in the location indicated by the white arrow, below..
4) Attach the Mounting Plate to the Access Point
The accessory kit includes a small mounting plate. Mounting plate dimensions are included in
the Drawings section at the end of this guide. The mounting plate can be used for wall or pole
mounting by reversing the side of the plate exposed. Attach the mounting plate to the Access
Point using the eight provided screws in the locations indicated below (secure in at least 4
places). The Pole Mounting position of the bracket is shown below.

5) Mount the Access Point on a Pole or Wall
5a) Pole Mounting
For pole mounting, Xirrus recommends using metal straps (not included with the Access Point).
The metal straps can be obtained from BAND-IT-IDEX, Inc. (www.BAND-IT-IDEX.com). See
their web site for additional contact information. Complete the following steps to mount the
Access Point to a pole.

Install the metal bands through the holes in the mounting
bracket.

Hand tighten the Band-It strap through the pole mounting
bracket, thread it through the strap buckle and then bend
the strap back.

Using the Band-It tool, place the tool onto the strap.

Rotate the Band-It tool so that it can pull the excess strap
through the buckle and turn the crank until the strap is very
tight.
-3 -
XR5 2 0 H Qu ick I n st a lla t ion Gu ide

Once the strap is satisfactorily tight, rotate the Band-It tool
back so that the strap cannot slide back through the buckle.

Using the built in cutting tool on the Band-It tool, cut the
excess strap.

Your installation should now appear as shown here.

Using a hammer, bend back and flatten the remaining strap.

Using a hammer, bend and flatten the two tabs on the
buckle, so that they hold the flattened strap end in place.
-4 -
XR5 2 0 H Qu ick I n st a lla t ion Gu ide

The completed attachment should have the mounting bracket firmly seated against the pole.
One band should be enough for most installations however a second band can be used for
additional mounting security.
5b) Wall Mounting

Place the Access Point in the desired location and mark the location of the mounting holes
on the wall.

Drill and prepare the holes for the desired screw type. In metal walls the holes may be
tapped to the proper thread or alternatively the Access Point may be mounted with sheet
metal screws. For concrete walls a plastic anchor and screw are suggested.
NOTE: Mounting screws for attaching the plate to the wall are not provided in the kit.

Attach the Access Point to the mounting plate before attaching the mounting plate to the
wall.
6) Ground to Earth Ground
WARNING: This equipment must be externally grounded using a customer-supplied
ground wire before power is applied. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection
authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available.
Part of the mechanical installation is to insure that the Access Point is grounded to earth ground
to dissipate any static electric charge that may develop due to wind. In Step 3, you secured a
terminal lug to the Access Point with the provided #6 screw (see Step 3 if this has not been
done).

After Step 3 is completed and the Access Point is mounted to the wall or pole, attach the 16
gauge wire from the Access Point to the electrical earth ground point that you located or
had installed in Step 3. The following illustration shows an earth ground connection where
the Access Point is mounted on a pole at ground level and the 16 gauge wire is attached to a
stake driven into the ground.
-5 -
XR5 2 0 H Qu ick I n st a lla t ion Gu ide

Continue the installation by mounting the antenna and attaching the cables as described in
Steps 7, 8, and 9. Only the antenna cables supplied by Xirrus can be used with this
product.
7) Install an Antenna
NOTE: Use only Xirrus-approved or recommended external antennas. Also see the
Notices and Warnings regarding external antennas in the Warning & Notices section of
this guide.
NOTE: Be sure to configure the Access Point’s IAPs to the proper bands (2.4 GHz and
5.0 GHz) in Step 11. Each must match the band of the antenna to which it is connected.
Low loss cable is available such that the antenna can be mounted in an appropriate location that
could be several feet away from the Access Point.
8) Prepare the Ethernet Cable with the Waterproof Shell

Place the split washer and split rubber grommet over the cable.

Slide all the sections together and tighten the nut on the end to 5kg but not more than 8kg
torque force to insure a water tight fit.
-6 -
XR5 2 0 H Qu ick I n st a lla t ion Gu ide
9) Connect the Cables
9a) POE port
All XR520H Access Points are powered directly via their Gigabit Ethernet connection.

Power: These Access Points are only powered through the GIG POE port. Only Xirrussupplied power injectors, or 802.3af or 802.3at PoE-compliant switches, may be used to
power the XR520H.

Data: Data is supplied to the Gigabit port via the same cable that powers the Access Point.

Connect the outdoor-rated Ethernet cable carrying data and power from the PoGE injector
to the Access Point’s GIG POE port as indicated.
9b) Antenna ports
Both IAP1 cables from the Access Point (IAP1 ANT1 and IAP1 ANT2) must be attached to
connectors for the same frequency band on the antenna (e.g., 2.4GHz), and IAP1 must be
assigned to that band on the Access Point (see Step 11). Similarly, both IAP2 cables need to go to
the other frequency band on the antenna (e.g., 5.8GHz). For simplicity, we suggest that you
connect IAP1 (ANT1 and ANT2) to 2.4GHz on the antenna, and connect IAP2 (ANT1 and
ANT2) to 5.8GHz. Then you must configure the Access Point to correspond in Step 11: set IAP1
to the 2.4GHz band and IAP2 to the 5GHz band.
To use a 3x3 MIMO antenna type with the XR520H, connect cables to the +45 and -45
connectors. Do not use the connector marked “V”.
The XR520H has RP-TNC connectors for the antenna.

XR5 2 0 H Qu ick I n st a lla t ion Gu ide
10) Log In to the Access Point

NOTE: If you are a Xirrus Cloud customer, your Access Points are completely managed by
XMS Cloud, and you may skip all of the remaining steps (10, 11 and 12). In fact, you will
not be able to access CLI or the Web Management Interface under normal operating
circumstances.
Xirrus Cloud customers should wait five minutes, then log on to XMS Cloud to
view/manage this Access Point. In the event that your connection to the Cloud has been
interrupted for an extended period of time, you may contact Xirrus technical support for
help with local access to the Access Point.

Establish a network connection to the Access Point using a web browser. If you are using
DHCP and DNS, enter the Access Point's default host name in the URL field. The default
host name is its serial number (for example, XR0823090CACD).

If you are not using DNS and DHCP, enter the IP address in the URL field. Be aware of the
following:
−
By default, the Access Point tries to obtain an IP address via DHCP. If it cannot do so,
the factory default is a static IP address of 10.0.2.1 with a mask of 255.255.255.0 on its
Gigabit POE port.
Take care to ensure that your network is not using the 10.0.2.1 IP address prior to
connecting the Access Point to the network.
−
To connect to the Access Point in this case, you must set your computer to be in the same
subnet as the Access Point: set your IP address to be in the 10.0.2.xx subnet, and set its
subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. If this subnet is already in use on your network, you may
connect your computer directly to the Access Point by connecting the computer to the
power injector’s IN port temporarily (this port may be called the SWITCH port or the
DATA port on your injector).
−
If the assigned IP address is unknown, you may use the Xirrus Xircon utility to
communicate with any XR520H on the local network. Note that the XR520H does not
have a console port, so Xircon has been specifically designed to substitute for the use of
a console port. See “Secure Low Level Access to the Access Point” in Step 12 for more
information about Xircon.

If your browser reports a Security exception, accept it and continue on to the Access Point’s
Web Management Interface (WMI).

At the login prompt, enter the default user name / password (the default is admin for both).

You are now logged in to the Wireless Access Point.
-8 -
XR5 2 0 H Qu ick I n st a lla t ion Gu ide
11) Configure the Access Point

Click Express Setup.

The Access Point will automatically contact Xirrus and obtain its license key, based on its
serial number and MAC address. This auto-licensing function requires the Access Point to
have an Internet connection. A license is needed to enable the full functionality of the Access
Point.

In the Admin Settings section, change both the default admin username and password to
improve Access Point security. Enter New Admin User and New Admin Password, then
Confirm Admin Password. Leave New Admin Privilege Level at read/write. Click Apply
Admin Settings when done.
Be sure to record the new account name and password, because the default admin user
will be deleted!

If you make changes to the SSID Settings section, click the associated Apply button to
apply your changes.

Click Save Changes to Flash on the upper right to save your settings.
-9 -
XR5 2 0 H Qu ick I n st a lla t ion Gu ide

Click Execute at the bottom of the page to set up/enable all IAPs (radios) automatically.

Be sure to configure the Access Point’s IAPs to the proper bands (2.4 GHz or 5.0 GHz), to
match the antenna connections that you made in Step 9b. Each must match the band of the
antenna to which it is connected.
Click IAPs > IAP Settings and select the correct value for each IAP in the Band column.
For improved security, you must also take the additional steps described in “Secure Low
Level Access to the Access Point” in Step 12.

With a basic configuration established the Wireless Access Point is now functional. Refer to
the Wireless Array User’s Guide for additional configuration information. Look for the section
titled Performing the Express Setup Procedure near the end of the Installing the Wireless Array
chapter of the Guide for more details on Express Setup settings. The chapter titled
Configuring the Wireless Array discusses all of the settings available for the Access Point.
Note: The channel set available in an outdoor application is different than indoor so
some channels typically used will not be shown.
12) Secure Low Level Access to the Access Point
Management of the Xirrus Access Point is done via the Web Management Interface (WMI) or
Command Line Interface (CLI). The Access Point also has a lower level interface: XBL (Xirrus
Boot Loader), which allows access to more primitive commands. You won’t normally use XBL
unless instructed to do so by Xirrus Customer Support. For proper security, you should replace
the default XBL login username and password with your own, as instructed below. XBL has its
own username and password, separate from the ArrayOS Admin User and Password (used for
logging in to the WMI and CLI).
Xirrus also provides the Xircon utility for connecting to Access Points that are not reachable via
the normal access methods (such as Secure Shell (SSH) or WMI) and that do not have a physical
console port (XR520H), or whose console port is not accessible. Xircon discovers Access Points
on your network subnet and can then establish an encrypted console session to the Access Point
via the network even if the Access Point IP configuration is incorrect. Xircon allows you to
manage the Access Point using CLI, just as you would if connected to the console port. Xircon
also has an option for easily accessing XBL.
Xircon access to the Access Point may be controlled. Since the XR520H does not have a console
port, this model has Xircon access to both XBL and CLI enabled by default. To avoid potentially
being locked out of the Access Point, Xircon should always be enabled at the XBL level at least.
If you disable Xircon access to both XBL and CLI on the XR520H, you must ensure that
you do not lose track of the username and password to log in to CLI/WMI! In this
situation, there is no way to recover from a lost password, other than returning the
Access Point to Xirrus. If you have Xircon access to XBL enabled, you can reset the
password, but this recovery will require setting the unit to factory defaults with loss of
all configuration data.
- 10 -
XR5 2 0 H Qu ick I n st a lla t ion Gu ide
Use the following steps to replace the default XBL username and password. These steps use CLI
commands.
1. To access CLI via the WMI, click CLI under the Tools section on the left.
2. If Xircon access at the XBL level is to be allowed, use the following three commands to change
the XBL username and password from the default values of admin/admin. In the example
below, replace newusername and newpassword with your desired entries. Note that these
entries are case-sensitive.
Array42#(config)#boot-env
Array42#(config-boot)#set username newusername
Array42#(config-boot)#set password newpassword
Array42#(config-boot)#save
Saving boot environment .... OK
Array42(config-boot)# exit
3. It is possible to change Xircon access permission to allow Xircon to access the Access Point at
the CLI level only, or at the XBL level only. See the Xircon User Guide for details.


The 2-GHz b/g/n radio operates in 2.4 GHz ISM band. It supports channels 1-11 in US, 1-13
in Europe, and 1-13 in Japan. It has two transmitters with a maximum total output power of
25dBm for 802.11b/g/n operation. Output power is configurable to 5 levels. It has three
receivers that enables maximum-ratio combining (MRC).

The 5-GHz a/n radio operates in the UNII-2 band (5.25 - 5.35 GHz), UNII-2 Extended/ETSI
band (5.47 - 5.725 GHz), and the upper ISM band (5.725 - 5.850 GHz). It has two transmitters
with a maximum total output power of 26 dBm for UNII-2 and Extended/ETSI bands for the
A-domain. The total maximum output power for the upper ISM band is 28 dBm for Adomain. Power settings will change depending on the regulatory domain

High power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) in the
5250MHz to 5350MHz and 5650MHz to 5850MHz bands. These radars could cause
interference and/or damage Wireless LAN devices.

Calculating the Maximum Output Power: The regulatory limits for maximum output power
are specified in EIRP (equivalent isotropic radiated power). The EIRP level of a device can
be calculated by adding the gain of the antenna used (specified in dBi) to the output power
available at the connector (specified in dBm).

The FCC limits the amount of power this device can transmit. Power transmitted is a
combination of the amplification of the signal and the antenna gain. This device has been
designed to operate with antennas having an effective maximum gain of 9dBi in the 2.4 GHz
band and 8.8 dBi in the 5 GHz band. Antennas having a gain greater than this are strictly
prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms. Effective
maximum gain is antenna gain minus cable loss.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna
of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To
reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so
chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary
for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec
une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie
Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres
utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée
équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication
satisfaisante.
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is
