Preparing for installation
This chapter describes how to prepare for the installation of the AP, including the preparation of
tools and installation site survey.
Preparing installation tools
When installing the AP, you may need the tools listed in Table 4. Choose the appropriate tools
according to the installation environment.
Table 4 List of installation tools
Type of tools Tools
General tools Digging tools, adjustable wrench, pliers, Phillips screwdriver
Special tools Cable stripper, crimping pliers, RJ-45 crimping pliers, waterproof sealing tape, fiber
fusion splicer
Auxiliary tools Ladder
Examining the installation site
Before installation, examine the installation site to make sure that the AP will work in a good
environment. You can examine the installation site from the following two aspects.
Installation site selection
Keep the AP away from high temperature, dust, harmful gases, inflammables, explosive substances,
electromagnetic interference sources (heavy-duty radars, radio stations, or electrical substations),
unstable voltage, heavy vibration, or loud noise. The installation site should be dry, without any
leakage, dripping, or dew. The AP should be at least 500 m (0.31 miles) away from the seaside and
should not face the direction of sea wind.
In engineering design, the site should be selected according to the network planning and technical
requirements of the communications equipment, and the considerations such as climate, hydrology,
geology, earthquake, electric power, and transportation.

Operating temperature –40°C to +65°C (–40°F to 149°F)
Storage temperature –40°C to +85°C (–40°F to 185°F)
Operating relative humidity (noncondensing) 0% to 100%
Storage relative humidity (noncondensing) 0% to 100%
7
Power supply
The AP can be powered by a power injector or through PoE+.
1. Power injector
You can use an H3C POE-5 power injector to power the AP. For more information about how to
power the AP through the power injector, see “Connecting the AP to a power injector.”
NOTE:
The input voltage of the POE-5 power injector must be 85 to 264 VAC (50/60 Hz). The
power injector is not shipped with the AP and must be ordered separately.
2. PoE+
If the switch connected to the AP is PoE+ capable, the AP can be powered by the switch through
the cable between the 10/100/1000BASE-TX port of the AP and the Ethernet port of the switch.
Grounding and lightning protection
Table 6 Grounding and lightning protection requirements
Item Requirements
Grounding
resistance
The grounding resistance is usually required to be less than 5 ohms, and less than
10 ohms in an area with less than 20 thunderstorm days a year. If a piece of angle
steel is buried as the grounding conductor, the grounding resistance is required to
be less than 10 ohms. In an area with a higher grounding resistance, reduce the
grounding resistance by using brine or resistance reducing agent around the
grounding conductor.
The top of the grounding conductor should be at least 0.7 m (2.30 ft) away from
the ground surface. In cold areas, the grounding conductor should be buried
below the frozen soil layer.
Grounding
connection
If a grounding strip is available, connect the yellow and green grounding cable of
the AP to the grounding strip. To make a grounding cable, make sure the cable is
with a cross-section area of at least 6 mm2 (0.01 in.2) and a length of no longer
than 3 m (9.84 ft).
If no grounding strip is available, bury a piece of angle steel/steel tube at least 0.5
m (1.64 ft) long in the earth to serve as the grounding conductor. In the case of a
piece of angle steel, the size should be at least 50 × 50 × 5 mm (1.97. × 1.97 ×
0.20 in.); in the case of a piece of steel tube, it must be zinc-plated and have a wall
thickness of at least 3.5 mm (0.14 in.). Weld the yellow and green grounding cable
of the AP onto the grounding conductor and use anti-erosion treatment on the
welding joint. The grounding cable should be as short as possible and must not be
coiled.
Make sure that the grounding terminals of all the lightning arresters of the AP and
the peer device of the AP are well grounded.
Grounding
lead-in
A grounding lead-in is a metal conductor connecting a grounding net and a
grounding strip. The grounding cable of the AP should be connected to the
grounding strip. The grounding lead-in must be 30 m (98.43 ft) or shorter. A piece of
zinc-coated flat steel with a cross-section area of 40 × 4 mm (1.57 × 0.16 in.) or 50 × 5
mm (1.97 × 0.20 in.) is recommended. Connect the grounding strip and the grounding
lead-in of the AP through the yellow and green grounding cable with an area of 35
8
Item Requirements
mm2 (0.05 in.2), or weld them directly. Use anti-erosion treatment on the welding joint.
Power grounding
(AC)
Use a power cord with a protective earth (PE). Do not use a power cord with only
an L line and an N line.
The neutral line of the power cord should not be connected with the PGND of
other communications equipment. The L and N lines cannot be connected.
Lightning rod
In plain areas, the shielding angle of the lightning rod should be less than 45 degrees.
In mountainous areas or lightning areas, the shielding angle should be less than 30
degrees. The lightning protection grounding (for example, the grounding of the
lightning rod) should be connected to the grounding conductor of the equipment
room.
Antenna The antenna support is already prepared according to the design requirements.
The AP is well grounded according to design requirements.
Network cable Use a shielded twisted pair cable for outdoor installation. Make sure that the devices
at the two ends of the cable are well grounded.
Examining the AP
Before installing the AP, connect the AP to the power source (if a power injector is used) and the
Ethernet and check the status of the LEDs to ensure that the AP is functional. Save the MAC address
of the AP for future use.

Connecting cables
WARNING!
Before connecting any cable, make sure that all power lines are disconnected and locked
out and that no hazardous voltage is present on the neutral (N) line.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the outer sheath of cables is intact and does not absorb moisture to protect
the AP from water leak.
External cables may include antenna cable, Ethernet cable, fiber cable, grounding cable, and power
cord.
Connecting the antenna cables
The antenna cables connect the antenna ports (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) to the outdoor antennas.
Follow these steps to connect the antenna cables:
Step1 Connect the antenna cables to the antenna ports of the AP at one end and to the outdoor
antennas at the other end.
For 2 x 2 MIMO antennas, connect the cables to the 2.4 G-1/3 and 5G-1/3 antenna ports on
the AP.
For 2 x 3 MIMO antennas, connect the cables to the 2.4 G-1/2/3 and 5G-1/2/3 antenna ports
on the AP, respectively.
Step2 Wrap the connections with insulating tape and apply several layers of waterproof sealing tape over
the insulating tape.
NOTE:
No antenna arrestor is needed. The WA2620X-AGNP AP provides lightning arresting
function.
Make sure that the grounding cables are well grounded during outdoor deployment.
You have the option to order the standard ready-made antenna cables, or order cables
of desired lengths and N-type antenna connectors and make antenna cables on-site as
needed.
Stretch the waterproof sealing tape till the width of the tape is reduced to 3/4 of the
original width and wrap the waterproof sealing tape around the cable to achieve desired
waterproof performance.
Connecting the Ethernet cable
16
CAUTION:
Observe the following procedure when connecting the copper cable. Otherwise, the AP
might be damaged.
Step1 Route the Ethernet cable with waterproof sheath from the equipment room to the AP.

Power&data out
NOTE:
If the AP is powered by a PoE+ switch, no power injector is needed. Make sure that the
PoE+ switch can support the maximum power consumption of the AP.
If a fiber cable is used to transmit data, the copper cable only provides power and does
not transmit data.
The Ethernet port marked with “Signal & power output” on the power injector must be
connected to the AP.
Make sure that the installation of the AP is complete before powering on the AP,
regardless of whether the AP is powered through PoE+ or by a power injector.
Step2 Insert the copper cable through the liquid tight adapter and crimp an RJ-45 connector on the end
of the cable. For more information about how to crimp an RJ-45 connector on a cable ,see
“Appendix A Crimping an RJ-45 connector”.
Step3 Connect the cable to the copper port of the AP.

Step5 Seal the connection with waterproof sealing tape.
Connecting the fiber cable
CAUTION:
Observe the following procedure when connecting the fiber cable. Otherwise, the AP
might be damaged.
When a fiber cable is used to transmit data, both ends of the cable must use appropriate
SFP transceiver modules. The SFP transceiver modules provided by H3C meet the
outdoor deployment requirements, use single mode fiber, and have a transmission
distance of 15 km (9.32 mi).
If the AP is connected to the switch through a fiber cable, an SFP transceiver module and a liquid
tight adapter are required at the AP side, as shown in Figure 16.

Follow these steps to connect a fiber cable:
Step1 Insert an SFP transceiver module into the fiber port of the AP.
Step2 Insert an LC fiber connector with liquid tight adapter to the SFP transceiver module.
Step3 Make sure the sealing nut is loose. Tighten the liquid tight adapter, and then tighten the sealing
nut.
Step4 Seal the connection with waterproof sealing tape.
19
NOTE:
The optional fiber cable is a 10-meter pigtail with waterproof sheath. One end of the
pigtail uses an LC connector and a liquid tight adapter and is inserted into the fiber port
of the AP and the other end uses an SC connector and is connected to an end user
terminal or switch.
If the fiber is connected to a fiber termination box, connect the SC connector to a pair o
f
SC sockets. The one marked as A is the receiving port (RX) of the AP and must be
connected to the transmitting port (TX) of the peer device; the one marked as B is the TX
port of the AP and must be connected to the RX port of the peer device. Usually, fiber
termination boxes are not waterproof. Put the fiber termination box indoor or in a
waterproof cabinet.
If the fiber is connected to a fiber connector box, cut off the SC connector and splice the
fiber end with the connector on the connector box. The pigtail marked as A is connected
to the RX port of the AP and the TX port of the peer device; the pigtail marked as B is
connected to the TX port of the AP and the RX port of the peer device. Fiber connector
boxes are usually waterproof and can be buried underground or mounted on a pole.
Connecting the AP to the power source
The WA2620X-AGNP AP can be powered by a power injector or a PoE+ switch.
Connecting the AP to a power injector
As shown in Figure 14, follow these steps to connect the power injector to the AP:
Step1 Connect the power input line to an AC power source.
Step2 Connect the signal & power output line to the copper port of the AP.
Step3 Connect the signal input line to a switch or an access controller.
Step4 Ground the PE output line of the power injector.
Connecting the AP to a PoE+ capable switch
To power the AP by using a PoE+ capable switch, connect the 10/100/1000BASE-TX port of the AP
to an Ethernet port of the switch through an Ethernet cable.
NOTE:
If the AP is powered by a PoE+ switch, the power injector is not needed. Make sure that
the PoE+ port can support the maximum power consumption of the AP.
If the AP is powered by a power injector, put the power injector at the switch side, and
the switch connected to the power injector does not need to be PoE+ capable.
Make sure that the installation of the AP is complete before powering on the AP,
regardless of whether the AP is powered through PoE+ or by a power injector.
20
Connecting the grounding cable
Connect the grounding terminal of the AP to the grounding point with the yellow and green
grounding cable shipped with the AP, as shown in Figure 3. For more information about the
procedure, see “Grounding and lightning protection”.
NOTE:
If the AP is powered by a power injector, the PE output line of the power injector must also
be grounded.
Verifying the installation
After the installation and cabling, check the following items before powering on the AP:
The power source meets the power specification of the AP;
The AP is well grounded;
The power input cable and the Ethernet cables are correctly connected;
The outdoor antennas are installed;
If the AP is powered by a PoE+ switch, an Ethernet lightning arrestor (which is not shipped
with the AP) is installed on the AP.
Powering on the AP
Make sure that all the cables are correctly connected. Then, switch on the external power source
and check the power LED of the AP against Table 2.
CAUTION:
If the AP is installed outdoor, the Ethernet cable must be waterproof and the connection at
the AP port must be sealed with waterproof sealing tape.
21
Logging in to the AP
NOTE:
A fit AP is zero-configuration and is managed by an access controller or wireless switch.
This chapter describes how to log in to a fat AP on a web interface.
Use the following factory default settings to log in to a fat AP on a web interface:
Username: admin
Password: h3capadmin
IP address: 192.168.0.50 (mask: 255.255.255.0)
Follow these steps to log in to the AP:
Step1 Connect the AP to a computer with an Ethernet cable.
Step2 Set the IP address of the computer to an address (such as 192.168.0.100 with a mask of
255.255.255.0) that is in the same subnet as the AP.
Step3 Launch the web browser and input the address (http://192.168.0.50) of the AP in the address bar
and press Enter. The login interface appears, as shown in Figure 17. On the web interface, enter the
default username and password and the verification code, and click Login.

Appendix A Crimping an RJ-45 connector
You must insert the Ethernet cable through the liquid tight adapter before crimping an RJ-45
connector on the end of the cable (usually category 5 or category 5E cable).
Figure 18 RJ-45 connector
The following describes two common types of cables and how to make them.
Straight-through cable: The colored wires are of the same sequence at the two ends of the
cable. A straight-through cable is usually used to connect these devices: PC to hub or switch,
router to hub or switch.
Crossover cable: The colored wires are of different sequences at the two ends of the cable. A
crossover cable is usually used to connect these devices: PC to PC, router to router, or PC to
router.
