106 External AntennasNN47250-307 (324136-A Version 01.02)Glossary of common antenna terminologyThe following glossary includes basic antenna terminology that can help in the selection and/or recommendation of a particular antenna. These terms are used throughout the remainder of the document:Omnidirectional (Omni) – Refers to the antenna coverage pattern. An omnidirectional antenna creates a uniform coverage pattern. Most omnidirectional antennas are weakest directly above and directly below their endpoints – this characteristic creates the familiar dual-lobe pattern shown on the E-plane graphs. Nulls are typically related to the orien-tation of the dipole/monopole antenna relative to the horizontal or vertical planes. The lobes grow and shrink depending upon the ground plane effects and cancellation/addition of the radiating signal. Omnidirectional antennas are suitable for most general deployments.Directional – Refers to the antenna coverage pattern. A directional antenna focuses its lobe or radiated energy in a particular direction. In general, as the gain of a directional antenna increases, the radiating beamwidth or lobe decreases. This design increases the transmitted power and communication distance in a specific direction at the expense of uniform coverage, as compared to an omnidirectional antenna. A directional antenna must be “aimed” at the intended coverage zone.Gain – Expressed in dBi, indicates the relative increase in radiated power over an isotropic point radiating source with a reference gain of 1.0.Each 3 dB increment in power effectively doubles the radiated energy. For example, an antenna with a gain of 9 dBi increases the transmit power 8 times more than an isotropic point radiating source. For example:12.5 mW = 11 dBm11 dBm + 9dBi = 20 dBm20 dBm = 100 mW100mw/12.5 mW = 8 times more powerE-Plane graph – The elevation plane graph shows the radiated antenna coverage pattern as a vertical cross section - as if looking directly at the antenna from the side.H-Plane graph – The horizontal plane graph shows the radiated antenna coverage pattern as a horizontal cross section - as if looking directly at the antenna from above.
107Nortel WLAN Access Point 2332 Series Installation GuideAP troubleshootingAfter you insert the Cat-5 cable into an AP’s port connector and enable PoE on the cable, observe the device’s health or LINK LED to determine the status of the connection with the WSS. • If the LED is green and is glowing steadily, the AP was booted successfully by the WSS and is ready for operation. • If the LED is not steadily glowing green, see Table 5.(For descriptions of all the LEDs, see “Status LEDs” on page 28.)Table 5: Health LED States (2332 Series)Health or LINK LED Appearance  Diagnosis RemedyNot solid green AP radio needs to be enabled. Enable at least one of the radios. If the LED is still not solid green, try the remedy listed in this table based on the LED’s appearance.Unlit AP is not receiving power. Check the Cat-5 cable connection(s).For a direct connection to a WSS:• Set the port type on the WSS to an AP port. • Verify that Power over Ethernet (PoE) is enabled on the WSS port connected to the AP.For an indirect connection through the network:• Configure a AP connection on a WSS.• Verify that a Nortel-approved PoE source is supplying power to the AP.Slowly alternating green and amberAP is booting with an image received from a WSS.Wait a few seconds for the boot process to complete. If this LED appearance persists, enable a radio or place a radio in sentry mode.Solid amber AP is waiting to receive boot instructions and a configuration file from a WSS.Wait a few seconds for the boot process to begin. If the LED remains amber, try the remedies for the other health LED appearances. If the LED still remains amber, make sure the AP is securely connected to its PoE source and to the network or WSS.

Table 6 lists the mechanical and compliance specifications. Table 7 on page 110, Table 8 on page 111, and Table 9 on page 111 list the radio specifica-tions. Table 10 on page 112 lists the MAC address allocation scheme.(For specifications for the WSS, see the Nortel WLAN-Security Switch 2300 Series Configuration Guide.)    Note.  The 2332 Series access points are designed and approved to be used only with Nortel WLAN—Security Switch (WSS) models 2360/2361, and 2350. (The 2380 and 2382 does not directly connect to the AP.)Note.  The AP radios are disabled by default and can be enabled only by the system administrator using the WLAN Management softwareapplication or the WSS’s command-line interface (CLI). Note.  The radio frequency band, operating channels, and transmit power depend on the country of operation specified by the system administrator using WLAN Management software or the WSS’s CLI.Table 6: AP Mechanical and Compliance SpecificationsSpecification DescriptionSize Diameter: 16.76 cm (6.6 inches)Height: 6.1 cm (2.4 inches)Weight Without mounting bracket: 0.45 kg (16 ounces)With mounting bracket: 0.5 kg (17.5 ounces) Operating Temperature 0° C to +50° C (32° F to 122° F)Storage Temperature -20° C to +70° C (-4° F to +158° F)Humidity 10% to 95% noncondensingPower over Ethernet (PoE) 42 VDC to 57 VDC (46 VDC nominal)IEEE 802.3afStatus indicators Health/WSS and radio LEDs(For descriptions of the LEDs, see “Status LEDs” on page 28.)
