  RAP-5WN Remote Access PointInstallation Guide About the RAP-5WNThe Aruba RAP-5WN is part of a comprehensive remote network solution. This device works in conjunction with other Aruba products, such as Aruba Mobility Controllers, and provides the following capabilities:zCan be deployed remotely as a Remote Access Point (RAP)zProtocol-independent networking functionalityzIEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n operation as a wireless Access PointzIEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n operation as a wireless Air MonitorzCan be centrally managed, configured, and upgraded through an Aruba Mobility ControllerzWireless TransceiverRAP-5WN OverviewRear ViewFigure 1  Rear View10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet PortThe RAP-5WN has one 10/100/1000Base-T port used wired connectivity.10/100Base-T Ethernet PortsThe RAP-5WN has four 10/100Base-T (RJ-45) ethernet ports for wired network connectivity. These are ports 1 through 4.DC IN (Power Socket)The device is turned on when the attached power adapter (included) is plugged into a power source (outlet). The device turns off by unplugging the device from the power source.USB PortThe purpose of this USB port is to support Cellular modems. Reset ButtonTo reset the RAP-5WN, insert a small, narrow object, such as a pin or paperclip, into the hole indicated in Figure 1 and press and hold the button while powering on the RAP-5WN. This will return the device to factory default settings.

Place the RAP-5WN in the stand (see Figure 3) and place the stand on a flat, level surface. Figure 3  Stand InstallationConnecting the CablesYou must connect the RAP-5WN to a network device that has access to the Internet, such as a router or modem. 1. Connect one end of the provided RJ-45 cable to port 0 on the RAP-5WN.2. Connect the other end of the RJ-45 cable to a free RJ-45 port on your modem or router. 3. Attach the provided power adapter to the DC IN port on the RAP-5WN.4. Connect the other end of the power adapter to a power outlet.The POWER LED is lit (solid green) when the RAP-5WN is receiving power. Verifying Successful InstallationOnce the RAP-5WN’s PWR LED has come up and the boot cycle is complete, you can connect to your company or corporate network.Provisioning at HomeIf your IT administrator instructed you to provision your RAP-5WN, complete the following steps after the RAP-5WN has been powered.1. Connect one end of a second RJ-45 cable to port 1 on the RAP-5WN and the other end to your computer.2. Open a web browser and navigate to any URL.3. An Aruba web page will appear (see Figure 4), requesting the IP address of the master controller. Enter the IP address provided to you by your IT administrator.The RAP-5WN will connect to the designated master controller and download the necessary provisioning information. When the RAP-5WN comes back up, it is ready to use.

 Regulatory Approvals  FCC Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.  This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communica-tions. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. To assure continued compliance, any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. (Example - use only shielded interface cables when connecting to computer or peripheral devices). FCC Radiation Exposure Statement This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:  (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and  (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. The antennas used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.       Channel            The Wireless Channel sets the radio frequency used for communication.  •Access Points use a fixed Channel. You can select the Channel used. This allows you to         choose a Channel which provides the least interference and best performance.  In the USA        and Canada, 11 channel are available. If using multiple Access Points,  it is better if adjacent        Access Points use different Channels to reduce interference.  • In "Infrastructure" mode, Wireless Stations normally scan all Channels, looking for an         Access Point. If more than one Access Point can be used, the one with the strongest         signal is used. (This can only happen within an ESS.)  • If using "Ad-hoc" mode (no Access Point), all Wireless stations should be set to use the        same Channel. However, most Wireless stations will still scan all Channels to see if there       is an existing "Ad-hoc" group they can join.Note:This equipment marketed in USA is restricted by firmware to only operate on 2.4G channel 1-11.
