Installing the ExtremeWireless Outdoor AP3965 Overview of the AP3965The AP3965 enables you to extend your Wireless LAN beyond the boundaries of indoor locations. It is resistant to harsh outdoor conditions and extreme temperatures (Operating Temp. -40ºC~60ºC). Using the advanced wireless distribution mesh feature of Wireless LAN, the AP3965 can extend your Wireless LAN to outdoor locations without Ethernet cabling. Mounting brackets are provided for quick and easy mounting of the AP to walls and poles.Figure 1 AP3965 Top View AP3965 models have the following specifications:• Radios: 2 radios (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz)•LEDs: 5 (see Figure 1)• Power: 802.3at (PoE+) compliant• The AP3965 supports the 802.11ac and 802.11n wireless standards, with full backward compatibility with legacy 802.11a, and 802.11b/g. The AP3965 with external antenna connectors supports a variety of antennas. (External antennas must be ordered separately.)• The AP3965 interoperates fully with Wireless LAN, including support for VoWLAN, branch office mode, guest services, RTLS, availability and mobility features.• Mounting brackets for a wall or pole mount• Enabled for use with an ExtremeCloudTM entitlement.For detailed installation information about the AP3965, see the ExtremeWireless AP3965i/e Installation Guide.Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel should perform installation procedures.Note: In this Quick Reference, any reference to AP3965applies to both AP3965 an “i” model (with internal antennas) and an “e” model (with external antennas). 1Status 5Radio 1 (5 GHz)2LAN 1 (Ethernet 1) 6LAN Ports (POE):LAN 1 PDE PortLAN 2 PSE Port output of DC48V, 0.26A3LAN 2 (Ethernet 2) 7Console Port and Reset Button4Radio 2 (2.4 GHz) .Warning: Always install and torque all LAN and Console caps properly, regardless of installation site location.Note: All radio and LAN ports are labeled on the AP3965.Unpacking the AP3965The AP3965 box includes a cardboard separation.1 Unpack the AP3965 from its carton. 2 Verify the contents of the carton as listed in Tabl e 1 .Optional: You may also need antennas, terminators, or cables. Refer to www.extremenetworks.com/support for product numbers.Mounting the AP3965Use these instructions as guidelines for mounting and connecting the AP3965 easily and safely. The installation of the AP3965 should be performed by a professional installer to ensure proper operation and compliance with local safety guidelines.Attach the AP3965 to a surface that can support it and withstand its environment. It can be mounted to a wall, girder, ceiling, or pole, and the surface material can be concrete, brick, wood, metal, or plastic. Positioning the AP for InstallationMount the AP so that the glands are on the side of the AP closest to the ground, and not above the plastic cover. You must provide a 3-inch drip loop on all cables. Attach the Ground WireUse the M4 ground screw assembly, with the star washer, to attach the ground wire’s ring terminal to the back of the AP. The wire should be as close to the AP bottom as possible. Tighten the screw to a torque of 12.0 in-lbs.Mounting the AP3965 to a Wall1 Using the mounting bracket as a guide, mark the location for the mounting screws. The wall bracket provides 8 attachment holes. Use 4 (1 in each corner), Place the bracket and mark the 4 hole centers.2 Drill four holes into the wall as follows:– for installing the AP on a masonry wall, use a 5/16” diameter bit.– for other materials, use the appropriate drill for the screws being used.3 For masonry installations, drill at least 1/8” [3MM] past the depth of the screw, or bolt, being used, and place four anchor assemblies into the holes.4 Attach the AP to the “H” Bracket:Table 1 Contents of the AP3965 Quantity Item1 AP3965 Quick Reference1 WS-AP3965i/e model that you ordered.Under the cardboard separation:1 H” shaped bracket that is used for mounting the AP.1 Metal bracket for attaching the AP to a pole, pipe, or mast.1 #10AWG ground wire with a ring terminal crimped on it (6 foot length)The following hardware is included: 4 Additional hex nuts for the concrete anchors.4 Concrete wall anchor assemblies that include the anchors, a flat washer, and a hex nut.4 Split washer for the concrete anchors.4 Cable clamps, all are ½" wide. Two clamps accommodate a 2.5" maximum diameter pole and two clamps accommodate a 6”-7” diameter pole.8 Screw assemblies, size M4, that include the screws, flat washers, and split washers.1 Ground Screw assembly, size M4, that include the screw, star washer, and split washer.Note: Before mounting the AP3965, read the “RF Safety Distance” on page 2.a Use 4 M4 screw assemblies to attach the AP to the “H” bracket on the side that does not have the PEM stand-offs. b Tighten the four screws to a torque of 12.0 in-lbs. 5 Secure the anchors to the wall, then secure the bracket to the anchors.6 If using #10 screws, tighten them to a torque of 25 in-lbs. If using ¼” screws, tighten them to 45 in-lbs.Figure 2 AP3965 Wall Mount “H” BracketMounting the AP3965 to a Pole1 Determine the diameter of the pole. For other pole diameters, provide your own stainless steel cable clamp. The band must be ½” [12.7mm] wide.2 Attach the AP to the “H” bracket on the side that does not have the PEM stand-offs. Tighten the four screws to a torque of 12.0 in-lbs. 3 Using four M4 screw assemblies, attach the pole bracket onto the “H” bracket. Tighten the screws to 12.0 in-lbs.Figure 3 Attaching Pole Mount to “H” Bracket4 Attach the cable clamp to the pole bracket. Open the cable clamp by turning a flat bladed screwdriver counterclockwise. Then, insert the non-clamp end into the pole bracket through the holes.Pole Diameter Cable Clamp Size<= 2.5” [63.5mm], Use small cable clamp.6” - 7” (178mm) Use large cable clampNote: It is easier to install both clamps before attaching to the pole.5 Put the metal band around the pole and insert it into the clamp. Turn the clamp screw clockwise, tightening the band around the pole. Figure 4 AP with Mounting Bracket—Horizontal PositionFigure 5 AP3965 Pole Mount—Vertical PoleInstalling External Antennas1 Professionally install the external antennas intended for area coverage. For information about antenna selection and installation, refer to the External Antenna Site Preparation and Installation Guide. 2 Attach the external antenna cables to the Standard Polarity Type-N connectors on the AP3965.Connecting & Powering the AP3965You can power up the AP3965 using Power over Ethernet based on 802.3at (PoE+) compliant switch or PoE+ injector.• The PoE injector must be 802.3at compliant. The PoE injector is not provided with the AP. • A waterproof RJ45 connector is provided to connect the PoE injector to the AP3965. You must connect the RJ45 connector to the RJ45 cable. For instructions, refer to the ExtremeWireless Outdoor AP3965 Installation Guide.Note: When the AP3965 is powered by the Power Injector, the DATA port of the Injector should be connected to a non PoE switch or, if the switch is PoE capable, PoE must be DISABLED on the DATA port.
