Regulatory Compliance Statements for WLAN Access Point 2332 Series
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Compliance Notices
This section includes the following FCC statements for the WLAN Access Point 2332 Series:
•
Class B Interference Statement
•
RF Radiation Exposure & Hazard Warning
•
Non-Modification Statement
•
Deployment Statement
Class B Interference 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 communications. 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 or more 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.
FCC Caution:
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.
RF Radiation Exposure & Hazard Statement
To ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, this device must be installed in a location such that the
antenna of the device will be greater than 20 cm (8 in.) away from all persons. Using higher gain antennas and types of
antennas not covered under the FCC certification of this product is not allowed. Installers of the radio and end users of
the product must adhere to the installation instructions provided in this manual.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Non-Modification Statement
Use only the supplied internal antenna, or external antennas supplied by the manufacturer. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could damage the WLAN Access Point 2332 Series and violate FCC regulations. Any
changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority
to operate this equipment. Contact Nortel for a list of approved 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz external antennas.
This device must be operated with the CAT-5 Ethernet cable installed on each activated AP 2332 Series Ethernet Port to
ensure compliance with the Class B emissions standards. Failure to comply with this installation requirement may cause
the device to operate in excess of the allowable emissions limits.
NN47250-307 (324136-A Version 01.02)
9
Deployment Statement
This product is certified for indoor deployment only. Do not install or use this product outdoors.
Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) in the 5.0 GHz UNII bands
The 2332 Series access point has been prohibited, via software, from operating in the 5250 to 5350 MHz and
5470 to 5725 MHz frequency bands for the US and Canada because it cannot meet the DFS requirements as outlined in
the rules of the FCC for Part 15, Subpart E that come into force on July 20, 2007.
The 2332 Series and 2332 Series access points will not be marketed or sold in the US and Canada after July 20, 2007
because they are not compliant with the FCC Part 15, Subpart E rules.
Canadian IC Statement
Operation is subject to the following two conditions in Canada:
1) this device may not cause interference, and
2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the
device
To prevent radio interference to the licensed service (i.e. co-channel Mobile Satellite systems) this device is intended to
be operated indoors and away from windows to provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is
installed outdoors is subject to licensing and not supported by the WLAN Access Point 2332 Series.
Because high power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) in the 5250-5350 MHz band,
these radars could cause interference and/or damage to license exempt WLAN devices.
European Union and European Free Trade Association (EFTA)

A Nortel Access Point (AP) provides IEEE 802.11 wireless access to the network. APs are designed for use with a
Nortel WLAN—Security Switch (WSS). APs require hardware installation only. All configuration for an AP takes place
on the WSS.
The WLAN Access Point 2332 Series (2332-E1 and 2332-A1) communicate with a Nortel Networks WLAN - Security
Switch using a standard CAT-5 (Category 5) or higher 10/100 Mbps twisted pair Ethernet cable to provide wireless local
area networking capabilities. The WLAN Access Point 2332 Series includes one 802.11a and one 802.11b/g radio and
two 802.11a and two 802.11b/g omnidirectional internal antennas. In addition, the 2332 Series access points can use
optional factory-supplied external omnidirectional and/or directional high-gain antennas, one per the 802.11b/g and one
per the 802.11a radios, as described in the external antenna section of this document.
When using the external antennas, connect them to the reverse-polarity R-SMA connectors located on the side of the
WLAN Access Point 2332 Series model.
Warning! Installation must be performed by qualified service personnel only. Read and
follow all warning notices and instructions marked on the product or included in the
documentation. (For translations of this warning, see “Qualified service personnel warning”

28 AP overview
Cable ports
The 2332 Series has two RJ-45 ports. (Figure 2 on page 26.) Each port provides a 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet connection
to an WSS. The connection can be direct to an WSS or indirect through an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network.
The AP receives power and data through the RJ-45 ports. Use a Category 5 (Cat 5) cable with straight-through signaling
and standard RJ-45 connectors to connect an AP to an WSS or other device in the network. The 2332 Series supports
802.3af, and also can receive PoE from Nortel switches and Nortel-approved power injectors.
The two RJ-45 ports support dual-homed configurations for redundancy. An AP uses only one link for booting, configuration, and data transfer. If the link becomes unavailable, the AP can reboot using the other link. The ports are identical
except for logical numbering (1 or 2). You can use either port to connect an AP to an WSS. However, an AP always
attempts to boot on AP port 1 first. Only if the boot attempt on port 1 fails does the AP attempt to boot on port 2. If one
port become s unavailable, the other port can provide full power to the AP.
Warning! APs do not support daisy-chain configurations. Do not connect the 2332
Series to another 2332 Series through the second RJ-45 port.
Kensington security slot
Models 2332 Series2332 Serieshave a slot to attach a Kensington security cable. The cable is not included with the 2332
Series.
AP mounting options
You can mount an AP access point on any of the following types of surfaces:
•
Suspended T-bar ceiling
•
Junction box
•
Solid surface wall or ceiling
Note. The solid surface mounting option requires Cat-5 cable that does not have strain
relief. The other mounting options can use Cat-5 cable with or without strain relief.
Status LEDs
The AP has LEDs that provide status information of the device. Figure 3 shows the locations of the LEDs. Table 1
describes the LEDs.

Installation requirements and recommendations
For best results, follow these requirements and recommendations before installing an AP.
WLAN Management software network plan and work orders
If you are using the WLAN Management Software to plan your Nortel Mobility System installation, you might want to
create and verify a network plan for the entire Nortel network installation and generate an AP work order, before
NN47250-302 (324136-A Version 01.02)
Installing and connecting an 2332 Series 33
installing any access points. A network plan and the AP work orders provide the following information about AP installation and configuration:
•
Number of APs required for adequate WLAN capacity in each coverage area
•
Detailed installation location for each AP
•
Settings for all APs in the WLAN
(For information about installing WLAN Management Software , creating and verifying a network plan, and generating
an AP work order, see the Nortel WLAN Management Software 2300 Series User Guide and Nortel WLAN Management
Software 2300 Series Reference Guide.)
WSS recommendation
Nortel recommends that you install and configure the WSS before installing an AP. If the switch is already installed and
configured for the access points, you can immediately verify the cable connection when you plug the cable into the
RJ-45 port on the AP.
Caution! AP models 2332 Series are designed to receive power only from an
802.3af-compliant source, a Nortel WLAN—Security Switch (WSS), or a Nortel-approved
power injector. Connecting an AP to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) device that is not
approved by Nortel can damage the equipment.
(For information about connecting an AP to a WSS port, see “Connecting an AP to a WSS” on page 53.)
Wall installation recommendations
If you plan to install an AP on a partial wall or other vertical surface, orient the top of the access point (the side with the
LEDs) toward the intended coverage area. The radio antennas transmit through the top of the access point but not
through the bottom (where the bracket is located).
AP Radio Safety Advisories
When you enable the AP radio(s) as part of WSS configuration, the radios are able to receive and transmit radio
frequency energy as soon as you connect the AP to the WSS, either directly or through the network.
Radio Frequency Exposure
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Docket 96-8 for Spread Spectrum Transmitters specifies a safety standard
for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC-certified equipment. Nortel 2332 Series
products meet the uncontrolled environmental limits found in OET-65 and ANSI C95.1-1991, if proper installation
procedures are followed. To ensure compliance with these exposure requirements, this device must be installed in such a
manner as to maintain a minimum of 20 cm separation distance between the radiating element(s) and all persons.
Nortel WLAN Access Point 2332 Series Installation Guide
34 Installing and connecting an 2332 Series
Additional radio safety advisories
(For translations of these warnings, see “Radio safety warnings” on page 116.)
Warning! Install this device in such a manner as to maintain a minimum of 20 cm (7.9
inches) separation distance between the radiating element(s) and all persons. This safety
warning conforms with FCC radio frequency exposure limits.
Warning! Do not operate the AP near unshielded blasting caps or in an otherwise
explosive environment unless the device has been modified for such use by qualified
personnel.
Warning! Do not touch or move the AP when the antennas are transmitting or
receiving.
Warning! Before using a wireless device in a hazardous location, consult the local
codes, national codes, and safety directors of the location for usage constraints.
Cable requirements
Note. The 2332 Series is intended for indoor use only. Do not install the device nor
operate it outdoors.
Note. To reduce the possibility of connection interference caused by dust, clean the
Cat-5 connector pins before inserting a cable into an AP.
Standard Cat-5 Ethernet cabling is required for use with the 2332 Series.
Cat-5 cable with straight-through signaling must be installed at the site before you install an access point. A single
connection requires one cable.
Table 2 lists the pin signals for the 10/100 Ethernet straight-through wiring. Pins 4, 5, 7, and 8 are used when Nortel
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is enabled on the port. RD stands for Receive Data and TD stands for Transmit Data.

Installing and connecting an 2332 Series 55
Note. The 10/100 Ethernet ports on a WSS are configured as wired network ports by
default. You or the system administrator must change the port type for a WSS port directly
connected to an AP to activate the link. (See the Nortel WLAN 2300 Series—Security
Switch Installation and Basic Configuration Guide.)
Verifying AP health
After you install the AP and enable PoE on the Ethernet cable connected to the AP, you can easily verify the AP’s status
by observing the LEDs, particularly the health LED. (See Figure 3 on page 29.)
The health or LINK LED indicates whether the AP is ready for operation.
•
If the LED is green and glowing steadily, the AP has been booted successfully by the WSS and is ready for
operation.
•
If the LED is not steadily glowing green, contact the system administrator for the WSS or, if you are the system
administrator, see Appendix , “AP troubleshooting,” on page 107.

The addition of external antennas to the WLAN 2300 System portfolio improves overall system value:
❥
Improved deployment flexibility – Planners can choose an antenna pattern that meets coverage
requirements while allowing for convenient AP placement and installation.
❥
Improved coverage and performance – External antennas allow planners to optimize coverage
and deliver higher available data rates to user concentrations.
❥
Can provide a low cost fix for trouble spots - Appropriately outfitting existing APs with
external antennas can greatly improve coverage and available data rates in areas that are not
adequately serviced.
❥
Increased security – Perimeter access points outfitted with directional external antennas can
focus energy inwards and increase security by preventing signal “leakage” outside the office.
❥
Improved aesthetics – External antennas feature a 3 foot cable that allows the connected access
point to be installed out-of-sight.
❥
Lower cost of coverage – External antennas improve overall system efficiency by effectively
directing available energy to where it’s needed. This ensures overall system utility is
maximized for any installation.
Nortel WLAN Access Point 2332 Series Installation Guide
58 External Antennas
The WLAN 2300 series external antennas are the only external antennas certified by Nortel for use with WLAN 2300
systems. WLAN Access Points 2332 Series outfitted with non-certified external antennas are not supported under
Nortel support agreements.
The WLAN 2300 system must be upgraded to WSS Software v4.1 (or later) and WMS v4.1 (or later). This upgrade
includes antenna pattern libraries for the WLAN 2300 series external antenna portfolio and allows the system to:
❥
Accurately predict RF environments when using the WMS planning tool to calculate coverage
provided by access points equipped with external antennas.
❥
Correctly interpret received signal strength measurements from APs with external antennas when
calculating rogue device or client location.
The WLAN 2300 System external antenna portfolio is sourced from Cushcraft, a world leader in the development of
advanced antenna technology and products.
❥
The Cushcraft products have been modified for compatibility with the 2332 Series.
❥
Nortel versions are equipped with an R-SMA (reverse SMA) type connector to comply with industry
regulatory quality standards and correctly interface with the 2332 Series.
❥
The Cushcraft model numbers presented throughout this bulletin refer to the Nortel specific versions
and may not exactly match similar versions promoted on Cushcraft’s website or other product
materials.
❥
Nortel has tested and measured each product. The antenna gains expressed in dBi are the Nortel
tested values and may differ slightly from those published by Cushcraft for similar products.

Antenna selection decision trees
The following decision trees are intended to quickly guide users to the appropriate model(s) based on basic criteria.
•
The distinction between office and industrial types refers solely to the aesthetic suitability of an antenna for each
environment. Any antenna identified as suitable for office deployments can be deployed in industrial environments
and vice versa.
•
The Antenna # can be used to quickly identify the appropriate corresponding model in the Antenna Descriptions
section.
•
Only one model of dual-band antenna is available for 802.11a/b/g installations - a Dual-band, Tri-mode
802.11a/b/g Spatial Diversity Antenna, model #: DR4000078E6. This unit has a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz antenna
built-in. It is designed to connect to each of the external ports on the AP. It can be used with only one port
connected, so it could be used in either b/g or a mode in a stand alone application For more information see
“Dual-band, Tri-mode 802.11a/b/g Spatial Diversity Antenna” in the Antenna Descriptions section.
