802.11a/b/g/n Outdoor Dual-Band Wireless Access Point
SMC2890W-AN / SMC2891W-AN
The SMC2890W-AN and SMC2891W-AN are dual-band IEEE 802.a/b/g/n access
points (APs) that are housed in a weatherproof enclosure for mounting outdoors.
The units include a mounting bracket for attaching to a 1.5 to 6-inch pole and can
be powered through their Ethernet cable connection from a power injector module
that is installed indoors.
◆SMC2890W-AN — Provides four external antenna connectors only.
◆SMC2891W-AN — Provides three external antenna connectors and one built-
in 5 GHz high-gain antenna.
Note:
For detailed AP installation information, refer to the Installation Guide,
which is on the Documentation CD included with the AP.
Note:
For Safety and Regulatory information, refer to the Safety and Regulatory
Information document included with the AP.

Follow the steps in this guide to install the AP in your network.
Caution:
The planning and installation of the AP requires professional personnel
that are trained in the installation of radio transmitting equipment. The user is
responsible for compliance with local regulations concerning items such as
antenna power, use of lightning arrestors, grounding, and radio mast or tower
construction. Therefore, it is recommended to consult a professional contractor
knowledgeable in local radio regulations prior to equipment installation.
1. Unpack the AP Unpack the AP and check the package contents.

4. Connect Power Install the PoE power injector indoors. Connect the power injector to the Ethernet
cable, a local LAN switch, and an AC power source.
Caution:
The power injector module is designed for indoor use only. Never mount
the power injector outside with the AP unit.
Note
:
Connecting the Ethernet cable to the injector module powers on the unit.
5. Verify AP Operation Verify basic AP operation by checking the system LEDs.
The Pwr/Sys LED should be on green, the Ethernet LED on/blinking orange, and the
2.4G and 5G LEDs on/blinking orange.

Connect the power cord to a nearby AC
power source (100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz).
Connect the Ethernet cable from the AP to
the “DATA & POWER OUT” port on the
power injector.
Connect Ethernet cable from the “DATA IN”
port on the power injector to a LAN switch.

6. Connect to the
Console Port
To make initial configuration changes to the AP, connect a PC to the AP’s console
port using the included console cable.
From a PC running VT-100 terminal emulator software, use the following settings:
◆Baud rate — 115,200 bps
◆Character Size — 8 Characters
◆Parity — None
◆Stop bit — One
◆Data bits — 8
◆Flow control — none
Log in to the command-line interface (CLI) using default settings:
◆Login Name — admin
◆Password — null (there is no default password)
For information on AP configuration and CLI commands, refer to the Management
Guide, which is on the Documentation CD included with the AP.
Remove the waterproof cover from the
Console port.
Use the included RJ-45-to-DB-9 console cable.
Connect to the AP’s console port.
