Reset Button The reset button is accessible from the back of the access point as well as through the mounting bracket. Push the reset button to restore the access point to its factory default settings. Mounting Bracket The mounting bracket comes attached to the access point. This mounting bracket allows the access point to be mounted to a wall or ceiling. Observing Safety Precautions This equipment must be installed in compliance with local and national building codes, regulatory restrictions, and FCC rules. For the safety of people and equipment, only professional network personnel should install the access point. WARNING: To comply with FCC radio frequency (RF) exposure limits, a minimum body-to- antenna distance of 20 cm (8 in.) must be maintained when the access point is operational. WARNING: To avoid possible injury or damage to equipment, you must use power supply equipment that is safety certified according to UL, CSA, IEC, or other applicable national or international safety requirements for the country of use. All references to power supply in this document refer to equipment meeting these requirements. Unpacking the Access Point Make sure that you have the following items, which are included with the access point: • • • • Two external 2.4 GHz and 5.3 GHz dual-band antennas Mounting bracket (attached to the access point) Wall-mounting hardware: • Locking bar (used for securing a wall- or ceiling-mounted installation) • Two sheet metal screws • Two thread screws • Two wall anchors Four adhesive rubber feet (used for a flat-surface installation). Preparing for Installation It is advisable to connect the power (if using an external power supply) and check the Ethernet cables and LEDs before installing the access point in a hard-to-reach location. Additionally, observe the following items before mounting or connecting the access point: Installation Item Description Switch port 3Com recommends that you install and configure the 3Com Wireless LAN switch before installing the access point. Set the port type on the switch to an AP2750 access point. Cabling Make sure that standard Category 5 cable with straight-through signaling is installed at the site before you install the access point. Make sure that the cable is highly flexible and that there is no extra covering on the RJ-45 connector that could prevent the cable from being routed through the mounting bracket. Power Requirements Power can be supplied via an 802.3af Power Over Ethernet (PoE)-compliant device or by an external power supply with a minimum 5v @ 2.0 amp. If using an external power supply, make sure the power outlet is accessible. The power supply plug is the only means of disconnecting the access point from power. MAC Address Record the access point MAC address in a safe place before the access point is installed in a hard-to-reach location. The MAC address is printed on the back of the access point. Additional MAC address labels are shipped with the access point. 3 Attaching the Antennas Carefully unpack the standard detachable antennas. Screw the antennas on to the antenna connectors on the access point and hand-tighten them. After network startup, you may need to adjust the antennas to fine-tune coverage in your area. For best results, adjust the antennas so that they are perpendicular with the floor and ceiling. CAUTION: Do not handle the antenna tips, especially after they are connected to the access point. This could lead to electrostatic discharge (ESD), which could damage the equipment. Mounting the Access Point The access point can be mounted on the following types of surfaces: • • Wall, ceiling, or electrical box (NEMA enclosure) Tabletop CAUTION: The access point is intended for indoor use only. Do not install the access point outdoors unless you install it in a properly installed outdoor access point enclosure. Wall, Ceiling, or Electrical Box Mounting To mount the access point to a wall, ceiling, or electrical box: Remove the access point from the mounting bracket. Screw the mounting bracket to a wall, ceiling, or electrical box (NEMA enclosure): • If mounting to a solid surface wall or ceiling, use the two sheet metal screws. • If mounting to drywall, use the two sheet metal screws and two wall anchors. • If mounting to an electrical box (NEMA enclosure), use the two threaded screws. Route the power cable (if using an external power supply) and Ethernet cable through the large opening on the back of the mounting bracket. CAUTION: For easy installation and removal of the access point from the mounting bracket, make sure that there is sufficient flexibility with the cable and that there is adequate service loop (that is, enough cable routed through the mounting bracket to easily connect the cable to the access point.) If not enough cable is routed through the back of the mounting bracket, or if the cable is inflexible, it can be difficult to install or remove the access point from the mounting bracket. The figures below show the mounting bracket being mounted to a wall, and then a cable being routed through the large opening on the back of the mounting bracket. Cradle Installing the mounting bracket Routing a cable Connect the Ethernet cable (and power cable, if applicable) to the port(s) on the front of the access point. Snap the access point onto the mounting bracket. .11a .11g .100 .10 Inserting the locking bar .11a .11g .100 .10 To install the locking bar, push the locking bar through the opening in the side of the mounting bracket until the hole on the locking bar is exposed. Insert a lock (not provided) through the hole on the locking bar, and then close the lock to secure it in place. Securing the bar with a lock Tabletop Mounting To install the access point on a flat surface such as a table or desktop: CAUTION: Do not place the access point on any type of metal surface. Select a location that is clear of obstructions and provides good reception. Remove the backing from the four rubber feet and attach them on the bottom of the mounting bracket that is attached to the access point. Place the access point on the table. Connect the Ethernet cable (and power cable, if applicable) to the port(s) on the front of the access point. Connecting the Access Point to a Switch 3Com recommends that you install and configure the 3Com Wireless LAN switch before installing the access point. If the switch is already installed and configured for the access point, you can immediately verify the cable connection when you plug the cable into the access point. WARNING: Do not connect or disconnect cables or otherwise work with the access point during periods of lightning activity. You can connect the access point directly to a 3Com Wireless LAN Switch port or indirectly to 3Com Wireless LAN switches through an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. In either case, use Category 5 cable with straight-through signaling for each access point connection. • To connect the access point directly to a 3Com Wireless LAN Switch, configure the switch port as an AP2750 access point and then insert the cable into the switch and verify the link. • To connect the access point indirectly to a 3Com Wireless LAN Switch through the network, configure a Distributed Access Point connection on the switch. Note: For instructions on configuring the access point, see the Mobility System Configuration Guide or the 3Com Wireless LAN Switch Reference Manual. 6 Checking the LED Indicators When the access point is connected to power, LEDs indicate activity as follows (solid LED indicates connection; blinking LED indicates activity): LED Color Indicates Power Green The access point is powered up and operating normally.
