Meru Access Point Features
Chapter 1
About Meru Access Points
The Meru Access Point radio devices communicate with the Meru Controller and form the Wireless
LAN (WLAN). The Meru Controller and Access Points connect to the site’s wired LAN through
wired switches. Wireless clients associate with the Access Points as they roam throughout the WLAN.
As such, the Meru WLAN is an extension of the wired LAN, providing the wireless benefits of client
mobility, enhanced access, and dynamic network configuration.
Meru AP
Figure 1: Meru Wireless LAN (WLAN)
Meru Access Point Features
All Meru Access Points provide the following features:
z Five times more voice calls per Access Point
Meru Access Points use Over-The-Air QoS to provide fine-grained quality of service on a perapplication, per-user, and per-flow basis providing a robust platform for enterprise-quality voice,
plus streaming media and data applications. It provides both uplink and downlink QoS between
the client and the access point, which is then integrated into the wired QoS mechanisms to provide
About Meru Access Points
Meru Access Point Models
end-to-end QoS. Meru Access points deliver a 5-fold increase in voice carrying capacity from the
current 5-8 calls per access point to over 30 calls per Meru Access Point with no change to the
802.11 client.
z Over five times the scalability of alternate Access Points
Meru Access Points are unique in their ability to dramatically increase performance over alternate
APs, even as client density increases. Meru Access Points, can serve over 100 standard 802.11
active data and voice clients per access point, whereas today's systems are limited to about 10-15
data-only clients. This scalability allows corporations to plan for a wireless usage growth without
forklift upgrades to the WLAN infrastructure.
z Zero-loss handoff means applications are not interrupted
Multiple Access Points can be aggregated into a Virtual AP, creating a single wireless network
with a wide coverage area that can encompass the entire enterprise campus and provide
unparalleled performance and manageability. This breakthrough technology works with any
standard 802.11 client device and enables application and security policy persistence while
roaming, without requiring the user to re-login or re-authenticate throughout the network coverage
area.
z Embedded RF monitor for enhanced security
Traditional approaches to wireless security involve separate devices to monitor the air or legacy
APs, or access points that periodically become air monitors. Meru Access Points provide
continuous RF monitoring, as well as capture information about all devices that the AP can hear,
including clients associated with the access point. Meru WLAN Radar—a third generation rogue
AP detection software, provides rogue detection and suppression continuously and without any
interruption to the VPN sessions and time-sensitive voice applications that operate on the
converged wireless LAN in an enterprise. This constant monitoring enables enhanced security
with rogue device detection and prevention that is less disruptive and more cost effective than
traditional approaches.
Meru Access Point Models
The Meru Radio Access Point is available in two model families: the Access Point 200 and the Access
Point 100.
The Meru Dual Radio Access Point 200 family (AP200) provides models that conform to the
specifications provided by the IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g protocols and also provide backward
compatibility for the 802.11b protocol. The AP200 works with most standard WiFi clients. The
Access Point houses two radio devices: one supplying 802.11a, b, g, or bg service and the other
serving as an RF monitor to the Meru controller, providing real-time status of RF activity to optimize
the wireless network.
The AP200 is housed in a metal case with a plastic removable cover. As such, it can be used for
plenum installations when the plastic cover is removed.

The Meru Access Point 100 family (referred to hereafter as the AP100, unless specifically referring
to the AP100-P) consists of the non-plenum AP100 and plenum-rated AP100-P. Both models that
conform to the specifications provided by the IEEE 802.11b protocol and work with all standard WiFi
clients. The AP100 also serves as an RF monitor to the Meru controller and provides real-time status
of RF activity to optimize the wireless network.

Safety Precautions
Follow the guidelines in this section to ensure proper operation and safe use of the access point.
FCC Safety Compliance Statement
The FCC with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to radio
frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified equipment. When used with
approved Meru access point antennas, Meru AP100 products meet the uncontrolled environmental
limits found in OET-65 and ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper installation of this radio according to the
instructions found in this manual will result in user exposure that is substantially below the FCC
recommended limits.
General Safety Guidelines
z Do not touch or move antenna(s) while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
z Do not hold any component containing a radio so that the antenna is very close to or touching any
exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
z The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited to the constraints posed by the local
codes, the national codes, and the safety directors of such environments.
Installing the AP100
Safety Precautions
Warnings
Translated versions of the following safety warnings are provided in Appendix C.
Warning! In order to comply with FCC radio frequency (RF) exposure limits, dipole antennas
should be located at a minimum of 7.9 inches (20 cm) or more from the body of all persons.
Warning! Do not operate your wireless network device near unshielded blasting caps or in an
explosive environment unless the device has been modified to be especially qualified for such use.
Warning! Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning
activity.
Warning! Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to its power source.
Warning! This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection.
Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international)
is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors).
Warning! Inside antennas must be positioned to observe minimum separation of 20 cm. (~ 8 in.)
from all users and bystanders. For the protection of personnel working in the vicinity of inside
(downlink) antennas, the following guidelines for minimum distances between the human body and
the antenna must be observed.
The installation of an INDOOR antenna must be such that, under normal conditions, all personnel
cannot come within 20 cm. (~ 8.0 in.) from any inside antenna. Exceeding this minimum separation
will ensure that the employee or bystander does not receive RF-exposure beyond the Maximum
Permissible Exposure according to FCC CFR 47, section 1.1310 i.e. limits for General
Population/Uncontrolled Exposure.
Warning! The Outside antenna must be positioned to observe minimum separation of 120 cm.
(approximately 4 feet) from all users and bystanders. For the protection of personnel working in the
vicinity of outside (uplink) antennas, the following guidelines for minimum distances between the
human body and the antenna must be observed.
The installation of an OUTDOOR antenna must be such that, under normal conditions, all personnel
cannot come within 120 cm. (~ 4 ft.) from the outside antenna. In all installations, the antenna should
never be mounted such that the main beam is directed toward an area where workers or bystanders
may be present. Exceeding this minimum separation will ensure that the worker or bystander does not
receive RF-exposure beyond the Maximum Permissible Exposure according to FCC CFR 47, section
1.1310 i.e. limits for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure.

Installing the Access Point
Selecting a Location
The AP requires a location that meets the following:
z Relatively unobstructed access to the stations the AP serves
z Power over Ethernet (PoE) connection to the network switch servicing the controller
APs obtain their power from 802.3af standard Power over Ethernet (PoE). The power can be supplied
by a PoE-compatible network switch or PoE power injector installed between the switch and the AP.
The Power LED on the AP100 (LED furthest from the RJ-45 connector) displays green if power is
supplied correctly to the AP.
Select a location with minimal physical obstructions between the AP and the wireless stations. In an
office with cubicles, mounting the APs on the ceiling or the wall near the ceiling provides the least
obstructed communications path.
Most installations receive the best coverage using the following guidelines:
z For high throughput, place APs approximately 60 feet apart in a grid pattern.
z For adequate coverage, place AP100s approximately 200 feet apart.
z Install APs toward the center of the building.
z Do not install APs near metal objects, such as heating ducts, metal doors, or electric service
panels.
z Relative to the ground, orient the antenna up or down, not sideways.
Note: The previous guidelines are general guidelines. Each site has its own unique environment.
Place access points accordingly.
Attaching the AP Antennas
Attach the antennas to the connectors on the AP100 (see Figure 5). Rotate the knurled ring at the base
of the antenna clockwise to attach the antenna, as shown in the following figure. The ring should be
finger-tight.

Vertical Mounting
To vertically mount an AP100:
1. Mark the location for the two AP mounting screws. They must be 4 ½ inches apart, center-tocenter, one above the other. If you are not using plastic wall anchors, you must center the
mounting screws on a wall stud. If you do not center the mounting screws on a wall stud, you must
use plastic wall anchors.
2. Drill holes at the locations you marked:
— 3/16-inch holes if you are using plastic anchors
— 1/8-inch holes if you are using only the screws
3. If you are using plastic anchors, install them in the holes.
4. Screw in the screws most of the way, so that the screw head is about 1/16 of an inch from the wall.

Chapter 3
Installing the AP200
This chapter describes how to physically install the Meru AP200. It contains the following sections:
z Safety Precautions
z Unpacking the AP200
z Installation Requirements
z Installing the Access Point
z Checking LED Activity
Safety Precautions
Follow the guidelines in this section to ensure proper operation and safe use of the access point.
FCC Safety Compliance Statement
The FCC with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to radio
frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified equipment. When used with
approved Meru access point antennas, Meru AP200 products meet the uncontrolled environmental
limits found in OET-65 and ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper installation of this radio according to the
instructions found in this manual will result in user exposure that is substantially below the FCC
recommended limits.
General Safety Guidelines
z Do not touch or move antenna(s) while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
z Do not hold any component containing a radio so that the antenna is very close to or touching any
exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
z The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited to the constraints posed by the local
codes, the national codes, and the safety directors of such environments.
Installing the AP200
17
Safety Precautions
Warnings
Translated versions of the following safety warnings are provided in Appendix C.
Warning! In order to comply with FCC radio frequency (RF) exposure limits, dipole antennas
should be located at a minimum of 7.9 inches (20 cm) or more from the body of all persons.
Warning! Do not operate your wireless network device near unshielded blasting caps or in an
explosive environment unless the device has been modified to be especially qualified for such use.
Warning! Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning
activity.
Warning! Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to its power source.
Warning! This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection.
Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international)
is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors).
Warning! Inside antennas must be positioned to observe minimum separation of 20 cm. (~ 8 in.)
from all users and bystanders. For the protection of personnel working in the vicinity of inside
(downlink) antennas, the following guidelines for minimum distances between the human body and
the antenna must be observed.
The installation of an INDOOR antenna must be such that, under normal conditions, all personnel
cannot come within 20 cm. (~ 8.0 in.) from any inside antenna. Exceeding this minimum separation
will ensure that the employee or bystander does not receive RF-exposure beyond the Maximum
Permissible Exposure according to FCC CFR 47, section 1.1310 i.e. limits for General
Population/Uncontrolled Exposure.
Warning! The Outside antenna must be positioned to observe minimum separation of 120 cm.
(approximately 4 feet) from all users and bystanders. For the protection of personnel working in the
vicinity of outside (uplink) antennas, the following guidelines for minimum distances between the
human body and the antenna must be observed.
The installation of an OUTDOOR antenna must be such that, under normal conditions, all personnel
cannot come within 120 cm. (~ 4 ft.) from the outside antenna. In all installations, the antenna should
never be mounted such that the main beam is directed toward an area where workers or bystanders
may be present. Exceeding this minimum separation will ensure that the worker or bystander does not
receive RF-exposure beyond the Maximum Permissible Exposure according to FCC CFR 47, section
1.1310 i.e. limits for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure.

Selecting a Location
The AP200 requires a location that meets the following:
z Relatively unobstructed access to the stations the AP serves
z Power over Ethernet (PoE) connection to the network switch servicing the controller or optional
nearby power supply for external power supply connector
APs can obtain their power from 802.3af standard Power over Ethernet (PoE) or external power
supply. For PoE, the power can be supplied by a PoE-compatible network switch or PoE power
injector installed between the switch and the AP200. For an external power supply connection, ensure
the power source is near to where the AP200 will be mounted.
Select a location with minimal physical obstructions between the AP and the wireless stations. In an
office with cubicles, mounting the APs below a hanging ceiling or the wall near the ceiling provides
the least obstructed communications path.
Most installations receive the best coverage using the following guidelines:
Install APs toward the center of the building.
z Do not install APs near metal objects, such as heating ducts, metal doors, or electric service
panels.
z Relative to the ground, orient the antenna up or down, not sideways.
Note: The previous guidelines are general guidelines. Each site has its own unique environment.
Place access points accordingly.
Attaching the AP200 Antennas
If the AP200 does not have external antennas, attach the antennas to the connectors on the AP200 (see
Figure 13). Rotate the knurled ring at the base of the antenna clockwise to attach the antenna. The
ring should be finger-tight.
22
Meru Access Point Installation Guide
