to a network.
To use a PoE power injector, connect the touchpanel as described below.
Extron recommends using a PoE+ (802.3at compliant) power injector.
Limit the use to no more than two pass-through points, which may include patch
points, punch down connectors, couplers and power injectors. If these pass-through
points are required, use shielded couplers and punch-down connectors
NOTES: When using shielded twisted pair cable in bundles or conduits,
consider the following:
•
Do not exceed 40% fill capacity in conduits.
•
Do not comb the cable for the first 20 meters, where cables are
straightened, aligned, and secured in tight bundles.
•
Loosely place cables and limit the used of tie wraps or hook-andloop fasteners.
•
Keep twisted pair cables separate from AC power cables.
To use a PoE power injector — connect an Ethernet cable to the power supply and a
switch or router. This cable carries network information from the switch or router to the
power supply input. A second cable carries the network information and power from
the power supply to the touchpanel. Connect the IEC power cord to a convenient 100
VAC to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power source.

ATTENTION:
•
The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process is critical. The ideal
length is 3/16 inches (5 mm). If they are any longer, the exposed wires may touch,
causing a short circuit between them. If they are any shorter, the wires can be
easily pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.

•
La longueur des câbles exposés est primordiale lorsque l’on entreprend de les
dénuder. La longueur idéale est de 5 mm (3/16 inches). S’ils sont un peu plus longs,
les câbles exposés pourraient se toucher et provoquer un court circuit. S’ils sont un
peu plus courts, ils pourraient sortir, même s’ils sont attachés par les vis captives.
•
Do not tin the wire leads before installing into the connector. Tinned wires are not
as secure in the connector and could be pulled out.

Figure 25. WDS AP Mode
In WDS AP (Wireless Distribution System Access Point) mode, allows wireless
connections between two WAP 100AC units. This allows the wireless area to be enlarged
beyond the area that can be served by a single WAP 100 AC unit.
WDS supports up to four AP MAC addresses.
This is taken from EAP 1200H guide:
Do the WAP 100AC units only communicate in the 5 GHz wave band? Since it is faster,
this might make sense but is there any reason why they couldn’t communicate in the
2.4 GHz band?
What about wired connections? This is only shown in WDS AP and WDS Bridge mode
diagrams. Why aren’t they in the AP mode? It seems very unlikely that PCs must
always be wired and laptops are always wireless or that PCs cannot communicate with
the WAP 100AC in the AP mode.

Figure 26. WDS Bridge Mode
In WDS Bridge mode, the WAP 100AC wirelessly connects different LANs that are a small
distance apart and want to communicate with each other. WDS Bridge mode can establish up
to four WDS links, creating a star-topology network.
Can WDS Bridge units communicate with WDS AP units?
NOTES:
•
WDS Bridge mode does not act as an access point because access points linked
by WDS use the same frequency channel.
•
More access points connected together may lower throughput.
•
Multiple WAP 100AC units in this mode can generate endless network loops.
Extron recommends that you prevent this by using the Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP) Settings (see page 13).

Fast Roaming
This function ensures that, when mobile client devices roam from access point to access
point, they are quickly able to reestablish association with applications.
Figure 34. Fast Roaming
To enable Fast Roaming, follow these instructions:
1. Enter the SSID settings.
2. Initialize the security mode to WPA-Mixed, WPA2 Enterprise, WPA2-PSK, or WPAMixed Enterprise.
3. Configure connections to the Radius Server.
4. Set the same encryption on the other access point.
5. Enable Fast Roaming.
Once Fast Roaming is enabled, can prevent delays in conversation, when moving
between access points while running voice services.

Mounting the WAP 100AC
Before You Start
Before starting, consider these issues to determine a suitable position to mount the WAP
100AC for optimal performance:
•
•
•
•
Mount the WAP 100AC on a wall or ceiling.
Walls, ceilings, doors, windows, mirrors, and other similar objects weaken the
wireless signals. To find the best location, you must take into account the number,
thickness, and location of walls and ceilings and keep them to a minimum.
Brick or metal decrease the strength of wireless signals to a greater extent that dry
wall. Objects such as filing cabinets also weaken the signal strength.
Interference from electrical devices that generate RF noise (for example,
microwaves or cordless phones) also weaken the signal.
Mounting the WAP 100AC
ATTENTION:
•
All structural steps and electrical installation must be performed by qualified personnel
in accordance with local and national building codes and electrical codes.
•
Toute étape structurelle et installation électrique, doit être effectuée par un
personnel qualifié, conformément aux codes du bâtiment, aux codes incendie et
sécurité, et aux codes électriques, locaux et nationaux.

Mounting to a Solid Ceiling or Wall
To mount the WAP 100AC to a solid ceiling or wall, Extron provides mounting
bracket (figure 17, 2) and a wall mounting hardware kit that includes:
•
Two wall plugs (1)
•
Two P3.5x32 screws (3)
Two P2.6x12 screws (4)
•
Wall or
Solid Ceiling
Turn the WAP 100AC about
90° clockwise to lock it in position.

2.
3.
4.
Drill two holes 3 inches (7.62 cm) apart.
Screw in the wall plugs.
Attach the mounting bracket, using the P3.5x32 screws.
Insert the P2.6x12 screws into the mounting holes on the top of the WAP 100AC
(5). Leave enough of the screws exposed to insert them into the mounting bracket.
If you need extra space between the WAP 100AC and the mounting bracket, use the
spacers and long screws from the T-rail mounting kit (see Mounting to a Dropped Ceiling
on the following page).
5. Connect the cables. The WAP 100AC can use a 12 VDC desktop power supply or a
PoE injector. Extron recommends using PoE.
ATTENTION:
•
Do not connect either power supply before reading the Attention notifications
on page 6 or page 7.
•
Ne branchez pas de sources d’alimentation externes avant d’avoir lu les mises
en garde dans la section « Power Supply » sur page 6 ou page 7.
•
Disconnect power from either power supply before making any connections.
•
Débranchez de sources d’alimentation externes avant d’effectuer n’importe
quelles connexions.

If you are using PoE, connect the LAN cable only (figure 2, A).
If you are using a 12 VDC desktop power supply, connect the power supply
cable (figure 2, B).
Insert the heads of the P2.6*12 screws (see step 4) into the holes in the mounting bracket.
7. Turn the WAP 100AC about 90° clockwise to lock it into place.

Mounting to a Dropped Ceiling
To mount the WAP 100AC to a dropped ceiling, Extron provides a mounting hardware kit
that includes:
•
Two 9/16 inch (1.43 cm) T-rail connectors (figure 18, 1)
•
Two 15/16 inch (2.38 cm) T-rail connectors (2)
•
Two spacers (3)
•
Two P2.6*10 screws (4)
•
Two P2.6*25 screws (5)
Figure 38. Preparing the WAP 100AC to Mount in a Dropped Ceiling
To mount the unit, follow these instructions:
1. Decide whether you need the 9/16 inch or 15/16 inch T-rail connectors and whether
you need to use the spacers to accommodate ceiling tiles.
If you do not need the spacer, use the shorter (P2.6*10) screws. If you require the
spacers, use the longer (P2.6*25) screws.
2. Connect the cables. The WAP 100AC can use a 12 VDC desktop power supply or a
PoE injector. Extron recommends using PoE.
ATTENTION:
•
Do not connect either power supply before reading the Attention notifications
on page 6 or page 7.
•
