Meraki MR58 Hardware Setup Guide Contents · System Overview · Understanding the MR58 · Pre-Site Preparation · On-Site Instructions · Troubleshooting 16 System Overview The Meraki MR58 enables you to create large, high-speed wireless networks quickly, easily and cost-effectively. Meraki MR58 An MR58 system consists of four basic components: the access point, the mounting system, the Power over Ethernet system, and the antennas. The following section describes each component in more detail. MR58 Access Point The MR58 Access Point is the core of the system. It contains three 802.11n radios integrated into a ruggedized, weatherproof enclosure. This MR58 package contains the following: MR58 access point 2 Cable glands Grounding strap Mounting System The MR58 mounting system (included) allows you to attach the MR58 to walls, ceilings and poles. Power System - Power over Ethernet (PoE) The Meraki MR58 accepts Power over Ethernet (802.3af); the Meraki PoE 802.3af injector is sold separately. Instructions contained in this setup guide assume your MR58 will be powered by the Meraki PoE 802.3af injector. The power system contains the following: PoE injector AC/DC Power converter with barrel plug Country-specific AC power cable Antennas The Meraki MR58 has three 802.11n radios. Each radio has two external antenna connectors; both connectors for a particular radio should be attached to the same type of antenna. Meraki offers a number of different antennas for use with the MR58. Alternately, you may purchase 3rd party antennas for use with the MR58. Make sure they have N-type connectors and support the proper frequency band (2.4 or 5GHz). Understanding the MR58 Your Meraki MR58 has the following features: LED indicators Accessory antenna attachment holes Mount attachment holes Accessory antenna attachment holes Understanding the LED Indicators Your MR58 is equipped with a series of LED lights on the front of the unit to convey information about system functionality and performance. Signal Strength One Light: Fair Four Lights: Strongest Moving Lights: Searching for signal Flashing Lights: Error state. May indicate bad gateway or other routing fault Ethernet Off: No active network connection on either ethernet port On: An active network connection is connected to either Eth0 or Eth1 Flashing: Error state. May indicate bad gateway or other routing fault Radio Power Off: MR58 is off On – ORANGE: MR58 is booting or trying to find a path to the internet On – GREEN: MR58 is fully operational and connected to the network Flashing – ORANGE: Firmware is upgrading Flashing – GREEN: Error state. May indicate bad gateway or other routing fault Understanding the Ports TOP BOTTOM ETH0+PoE ETH1 Vent Grounding post Primary ethernet and power port Secondary ethernet port and are 5GHz radios for mesh or client communication. Each radio has two external N-type connectors. is a 2.4GHz radio primarily used for client communication. However, it can also communicate with Meraki 2.4Ghz access points. This radio has two external N-type connectors. Vent The vent allows pressure and humidity equalization between the interior and the enviroment. This prevents internal condensation and maintains a water proof seal. Grounding Post Provides an attachment point on the Access Point for the grounding strap (included). This post is threaded to accept a M4 x 0.7mm bolt Pre-Site Preparation You should complete the following steps before going on-site to perform the installation. Collect Tools You will need the following tools to perform your installation: Required Recommended x2 Straight-slot screwdriver Phillips screwdriver 9/16”(13mm) wrenches Adjustable wrench Rubber mallet Drill with appropriate bits for mounting wall anchors (if mounting to a wall) Tin snips (if mounting with hose clamps) Power screwdriver with 5/16” (8 mm) nut driver, Phillips & flat heads Collect Additional Hardware for Installation Required Network cables with RJ45 connectors long enough for your particular mounting location Connection to the internet (if you are setting up your MR58 as a gateway to the internet) Appropriately sized metal straps (if mounting to a pole larger than 3.0” in diameter) Specialized mounting hardware if mounting to surface other than wood, stucco or stone Recommended Laptop with wireless to verify setup Configure Your Network in Dashboard We recommend that you add your MR58 to a network in Dashboard before mounting it in the field. 1. Login to http//dashboard.meraki.com. If this is your first time, create a new account. 2. Find the network to which you plan to add your nodes. 3. Add your nodes to your network. You will need your Meraki order number (found on your invoice) or the serial number of each node, which looks like Q2xx-xxxx-xxxx, and is found on the bottom of the unit. 4. Finally, go to the map view and place each node on the map by clicking and dragging it to the location where you plan to mount it. You can always modify the location later. * If you do choose to add the node to Dashboard after the installation, make sure to write down the serial number and MAC address of the unit before installing. On-Site Instructions Find a Good Mounting Location A good mounting location is important to getting the best performance out of your MR58 Access Point. Keep the following in mind: 1. The Power over Ethernet System supports a maximum cable length of 100m. The Power over Ethernet Adapter and Injector are not rated for outdoor use, and must be installed indoors or in a weatherproof outdoor-rated enclosure. 2. The Meraki MR58 should have line of sight to as many other Meraki devices as possible. If being installed as a repeater, special care should be taken to optimize the view in the direction of the closest known gateway. 3. The antennas should be as unobstructed as possible. Make sure that there is clearance around the MR58 for installation of all of your chosen antennas. Mount the MR58 Your mounting system contains the following: Articulating bracket Mount base x3 Pole mount V-bar x4 x3 x2 x4 x4 x3 M8 x 110 screws and washers 1. M8 nut M5 x 12 screws and washers x2 Wood screws and anchors Attach the articulating bracket to back of the MR58 using M5 screws and washers. 2. Attach mount base to mounting structure (pole, wall or ceiling). Before tightening fasteners, make sure that the MR58 will be pointing in the correct direction after mounting. Mounting for poles less than 1.5” (35mm) Attach mount base and V-bar to pole as shown using M8 bolts and washer. Mounting for poles less than 3” (80mm) and larger than 1.5” (35mm) Attach mount base and V-bar to pole as shown using M8 bolts and washers. 10 Mounting for poles larger that 3” (80mm) Attach mount base to pole using appropriately-sized metal straps (not included). Mounting on walls Using appropriate wall anchors and screws for the surface you are mounting to (if mounting to wood, stucco or stone, use anchors and screws included with mount), attach the mount base to your mounting wall. 11 Remaining mounting steps are illustrated assuming the MR58 is mounted to a pole between 1.5 - 3” in diameter; however, instructions are the same regardless of what the access point is mounted to. 3. Attach the articulating bracket to the mount base using a M8x110 bolt, nut and washers. Do not over-tighten the central bolt because the articulating bracket and mount base are hard to separate after they are firmly assembled together. Omni antennas perform best in a mesh network when oriented vertically. 12 Attach Antennas Remove protective plastic covers from all six N-type RF connectors. Attach appropriate antennas (and protective boots if included). 13 Power the MR58 Assemble the Power Adapter and PoE Injector. 1. Plug the Meraki AC/DC adapter into wall power in a weather protected location. The AC/DC adapter is NOT weather resistant and must be protected from moisture. 2. Plug the barrel plug of the AC/DC adapter into the Power over Ethernet Injector. 3. Plug an Ethernet cable into the “Out” port of the PoE injector. Not required for a repeater configuration DC POE 14 LAN Router or Modem / Router Attach Power over Ethernet to MR58 1. Remove the dust cover from the PoE+Eth0 port of the MR58. Unscrew it with a coin or flathead screwdriver. 2. Route the Ethernet cable from the PoE Injector “Out” port to the MR58. 3. Install a Cable Gland on the MR58 end of the cable. 15 4. Plug the Ethernet cable into the PoE+Eth0 port of the Meraki MR58. a. Connect the cable to the port on the MR58. b. Screw the gland body into the threaded hole of the port. Use an adjustable wrench to make sure the gland body is fully seated in the hole. c. Insert the split ring gasket into the gland body. d. Screw the cap tightly onto the gland. You may need a wrench to fully tighten the cap, but take care not to damage the cable in the process. Optional: Make the MR58 a gateway 1. Connect an active internet connection to the “In” port of the PoE injector. Aim Antennas If you are using directional antennas, aim them appropriately to ensure optimal performance for your specific network topography. Test Your Network Confirm that you have good signal strength throughout your coverage area. You can use the signal strength meter on a laptop.
