Aruba 303 Series Campus Access Points | Installation Guide 3Console PortThe console port is a Micro-B connector located on the back of this device. A proprietary serial adapter cable (AP-CBL-SERU) is needed to use this interface. It is sold separately to connect the AP to a serial terminal or a laptop for direct local management. DC Power SocketIf PoE is not available, a proprietary Aruba AP-AC-12V30B power adapter kit (sold separately) can be used to power the 303 Series access points. Additionally, a locally-sourced AC-to-DC adapter (or any DC source) can be used to power this device, as long as it complies with all applicable local regulatory requirements and the DC interface meets the following specifications:12 Vdc (+/- 5%) and at least 12W2.1/5.5 mm center-positive circular plug, 9.5 mm lengthReset ButtonTo reset the 303 Series access points to factory default settings, press and hold down the reset button using a small, narrow object such as a paper clip for several seconds while powering up the AP, or for more than 10 seconds during normal operation.To turn off all the LED display, press and release the reset button using a small, narrow object, such as a paperclip for less than 10 seconds during normal operation of the access point.Before You Begin Refer to the sections below before beginning the installation process. Pre-Installation ChecklistBefore installing the 303 Series access point, be sure that you have the following:Cat5E or better UTP cableOne of the following power sources:IEEE 802.3af-compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE) sourceAruba AP-AC-12V30B adapter kit (sold separately)For 303 Series access point running ArubaOS only:!FCC Statement: Improper termination of access points installed in the United States configured to non-US model controllers will be in violation of the FCC grant of equipment authorization. Any such willful or intentional violation may result in a requirement by the FCC for immediate termination of operation and may be subject to forfeiture (47 CFR 1.80).!EU Statement: Lower power radio LAN product operating in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

4Aruba 303 Series Campus Access Points | Installation GuideAruba controller provisioned on the networkLayer 2/3 network connectivity to your access pointOne of the following network services:Aruba Discovery Protocol (ADP)DNS server with an “A” recordDHCP Server with vendor specific optionsVerifying Pre-Installation ConnectivityBefore you install access points in a network environment, make sure that the access points will be able to locate and connect to the controller when they are powered on. Specifically, you must verify the following conditions:When connected to the network, each access point is assigned a valid IP address.Access points are able to locate the controller.Refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide for instructions on locating and connecting to the controller.Identifying Specific Installation LocationsUse the access point placement map generated by Aruba’s RF Plan software application to determine the proper installation location(s). Each location should be as close as possible to the center of the intended coverage area and should be free from obstructions or obvious sources of interference. These RF absorbers/reflectors/interference sources will impact RF propagation and should be accounted for during the planning phase and adjusted for in RF plan.Identifying Known RF Absorbers/Reflectors/Interference SourcesIdentifying known RF absorbers, reflectors, and interference sources while in the field during the installation phase is critical. Make sure that these sources are taken into consideration when you attach an access point to its fixed location.RF absorbers include:Cement/concrete—Old concrete has high levels of water dissipation, which dries out the concrete, allowing for potential RF propagation. New concrete has high levels of water concentration in the concrete, blocking RF signals.Natural Items—Fish tanks, water fountains, ponds, and treesBrickRF reflectors include:Metal Objects—Metal pans between floors, rebar, fire doors, air conditioning/heating ducts, mesh windows, blinds, chain link fences (depending on aperture size), refrigerators, racks, shelves, and filing cabinets.Do not place an access point between two air conditioning/heating ducts. Make sure that access points are placed below ducts to avoid RF disturbances.RF interference sources include:Microwave ovens and other 2.4 or 5 GHz objects (such as cordless phones)Cordless headset such as those used in call centers or lunch roomsThis device in compliance with governmental requirements, and is designed the so that only authorized network administrators can change the settings. For more information about access point configuration, refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide and ArubaOS User Guide.!Access points are radio transmission devices and as such are subject to governmental regulation. Network administrators responsible for the configuration and operation of access points must comply with local broadcast regulations. Specifically, access points must use channel assignments appropriate to the location in which the access point will be used.The instructions in this section are applicable to the 303 Series access points running ArubaOS only.
Aruba 303 Series Campus Access Points | Installation Guide 5Installing the Access PointThe 303 Series access points ship with a ceiling mount bracket to attach to a 9/16” or 15/16” ceiling rail. Additional ceiling or wall mount kits are sold separately as accessories. 1. Pull the necessary cables through a prepared hole in the ceiling tile near where the access point will be placed.2. Place the mount bracket against the back of the access point with the mount bracket at an angle of approximately 30 degrees to the tabs (see Figure 3).Twist the mount bracket clockwise until it snaps into place in the tabs (see Figure 3).Figure 3 Attaching the Ceiling Mount Bracket to the AP3. Hold the access point next to the ceiling tile rail with the ceiling tile rail mounting slots at approximately a 30-degree angle to the ceiling tile rail (see Figure 4). Make sure that any cable slack is above the ceiling tile.4. Pushing toward the ceiling tile, rotate the access point clockwise until the device clicks into place on the ceiling tile rail.Service to all Aruba products should be performed by trained service personnel only.!The installer is responsible for securing the access point onto the ceiling tile rail in accordance with the steps below. Failure to properly install this product may result in physical injury and/or damage to property.
