Aruba AP-103H Wireless Access Point
The Aruba AP-103H wireless access point that supports the IEEE 802.11n
standard for high-performance WLAN. This access point uses MIMO (MultipleInput, Multiple-Output) technology and other high-throughput mode techniques
to deliver high-performance, 802.11n 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz functionality while
simultaneously supporting existing 802.11a/b/g wireless services. The AP-103H
access point works only in conjunction with an Aruba Controller.

The serial console port allows you to connect the AP to a serial terminal or a
laptop for direct local management. This port is a 4-pin connector covered by a
dust cover. An optional serial adapter cable (AP-CBL-SER) is available for use
with the IAP-103 and is sold separately.
Inform your supplier if there are any incorrect, missing, or damaged
parts. If possible, retain the carton, including the original packing
materials. Use these materials to repack and return the unit to the
supplier if needed.
Before You Begin
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).
The console port does not support hot-plug operation.

Hardware Overview
Figure 1 Front
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.
3. Power-on the AP without releasing the push button. The system status
LED will flash within 5 seconds.
During the normal operation of the AP, press the push button using a small,
narrow object, such as a paperclip. The system status LED will be turned off/
on immediately.

Aruba Networks, Inc., in compliance with governmental requirements, has
designed the AP-93H access points so that only authorized network
administrators can change the settings. For more information about AP
configuration, refer to the ArubaOS Quick Start Guide and ArubaOS User
Guide.

Verifying Pre-Installation Connectivity
Before you install APs in a network environment, make sure that the APs are
able to locate and connect to the controller after power on. Specifically, you
must verify the following conditions:


When connected to the network, each AP is assigned a valid IP address
APs 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 Locations
EU Statement:
Lower power radio LAN product operating in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
bands. Please refer to the ArubaOS User Guide for details on
restrictions.
You can mount the AP-93H access point on a wall or on the ceiling. Use the AP
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 have been accounted for during
the planning phase and adjusted for in RF plan.

System Status LED
LED
The AP-103H is equipped with one LED that indicates the system status of the
AP.
AP-103H is equipped with a total of three active Ethernet ports (ENET 0-2).
ENET 0 is a 10/100/1000Base-T (RJ-45) auto-sensing, MDI/MDX wired-network
uplink connectivity port. This port supports IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet
(PoE), accepting 48VDC as a standard defined Powered Device (PD) from a
Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) such as a PoE midspan injector or network
infrastructure that supports PoE. ENET 1 and 2 are 10/100Base-T (RJ-45) autosensing, MDI/MDX wired-network downlink connectivity ports, used to provide
secure network connectivity to wired devices. ENET 0 is located on the rear of
the AP, while ENET 1 and 2 are located on the bottom (Figure 3).
Additionally, AP-103H supports a passive pass-through RJ-45 interface to extend
a physical connection (typically another Ethernet connection) from the back of
the device to a connector on the bottom.

Summary of the Setup Process
It is important that you verify the items listed under AP Pre-Installation
Checklist before you attempt to set up and install an AP-103H.
DC Power Socket
Successful setup of an AP-103H access point consists of five tasks, which must
be performed in this order:
The AP-103H has a single 12V DC power jack socket to support powering
through an AC-to-DC power adapter.
1. Verify pre-installation connectivity.
If both POE and DC power are available, the AP uses DC power, but a
small current will be drawn from the POE power source as well.

2. Identify the specific installation location for each AP.
3. Install each AP.
4. Verify post-installation connectivity.
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
Brick
RF reflectors include:


Before installing your AP-103H access point, be sure that you have the following:

Ethernet Ports
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 AP between two air conditioning/heating ducts. Make sure
that APs 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 rooms
Installing the AP
The AP-103H is designed to mount into a variety of electrical gang boxes. To
install your AP-103H:
1. Begin by removing the existing data wall plate (if applicable).
Figure 6 Removing Wall Plate (Standard US Single Gang Outlet Box Shown)
2. Remove any existing RJ45 connectors (typically snap-in) or cut/remove the
UTP cable.

If a power adapter other than the one provided by Aruba Networks is used
in the US or Canada, it should be NRTL Listed, with an output rated 12
VDC, minimum 1.25A, marked “LPS” or “Class 2,” and suitable for plugging
into a standard power receptacle in the US and Canada.
3. Use two short Ethernet cables (sold separately) to connect the AP to the RJ45
connectors or crimp an RJ45 plug (not supplied) on the cable (or both cables
if using the pass through).
4. Align the mounting holes of the AP-103H mounting bracket with mounting
holes in you gang box as shown in Figure 7

9. Use the security key to depress the tab on the AP and push the AP up,
releasing the AP from the mounting holes on the bracket.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a
type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce
potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the
equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful
communication.
10. If not using PoE, connect the AC-DC power adapter (sold separately) to the
DC power socket located on the bottom of the AP-103H.
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s).
Verifying Post-Installation Connectivity
