Quick Setup Guide

Step 1: Collect Tools and Setup Requirements

Make sure that you have the following setup requirements:

• A PC/Mac/mobile client with a WiFi network adapter and a web

browser

• One Cat 5e Ethernet cable

• Network switch or router, with Internet connectivity

• An AC power adapter (sold separately), or

• An 802.3af or 802.3at -compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE)

switch or PoE injector

• No. 2 Phillips screwdriver and T8 Torx driver for wall mounting

anchor kit

• When mounting the Unleashed R600 to a truss or pole, two

customer-supplied cable ties

Step 2: Connect the AP to Power and Your Network

Figure 1. : Top view

1After removing your Unleashed AP from its package, connect it

to your network switch or router using an Ethernet cable.

2Using an AC adapter (sold separately), connect the AP 12VDC

port to a protected power source.

• Alternatively, connect the PoE port to a PoE injector or PoE

switch for both power and network connections.

3Verify that the Power LED on the external enclosure is a steady

green.

Figure 2. : Bottom view

Step 3: Log In and Run the Setup Wizard

1As soon as the Unleashed AP is powered on and connected to

the local network, it boots up and begins broadcasting a

temporary unencrypted WLAN named “Configure.Me-[xxxxxx]”

from the 2.4 GHz radio only.

2Using your client’s WiFi configuration settings, select and

associate to the “Configure.Me-[xxxxxx]” WLAN.

3Launch a web browser and enter the following into the

browser’s URL bar: unleashed.ruckuswireless.com, and press

Enter.

Figure 4. : Select Create New Unleashed Network

4Select Create New Unleashed Network, and click

Start to begin.

5The “Configuring Unleashed Master” progress screen displays

the progress. Wait until the initialization process completes.

.

6Once initialization is complete, ensure that you are still

connected to the “Configure.Me” WLAN, and click Next.

7You will be redirected to the Setup Wizard. Complete the steps

in the Setup Wizard and click Finish.

Note: If you will be using PoE, then you will need a Cat

5e (or better) Ethernet cable to connect the AP to the

PoE injector or switch.

settings and rebooting” progress screen appears. Wait until the

process is complete.

9Connect to the WLAN that you configured in the Setup Wizard,

and click OK to reconnect. You will be redirected to the

unleashed.ruckuswireless.com login screen.

10 Enter your Admin Name and Password to login.

11 Upon successful login you will be presented with the

Unleashed Dashboard, which displays an overview of your

Ruckus Unleashed network.

Step 4: Customize Your Wireless LANs

Once the Unleashed Master AP has been initialized, you can fine-

tune the settings of your first WLAN (that you created during the

setup wizard), and create any additional WLANs needed prior to

attaching additional Unleashed member APs. Then, when you

deploy additional member APs in whatever order you prefer, they

will automatically retrieve all WLAN configuration settings (and any

other settings you have configured) from the Unleashed Master AP.

1From the Dashboard, click anywhere in the WiFi Networks

section to expand the display of your deployed WLANs.

2On the left side of the screen, select the WLAN box for the

WLAN you would like to configure, and click the Edit button to

edit the configuration; or click Create to create a new WLAN.

3If you made any changes to the original WLAN, you will be

disconnected and will need to reconnect once the changes

have been deployed on the AP radios.

Congratulations! Your Unleashed network is now configured and

ready for use. You may now proceed to Step 5: Deploy Additional

Unleashed Access Points.

Step 5: Deploy Additional Unleashed Access Points

Deploying additional Unleashed member APs is simply a matter of

connecting them to the same Layer 2 network (subnet) and

providing power. They will discover the Unleashed Master and join

automatically. No additional steps are necessary.

(OPTIONAL) MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

The Unleashed R600 can be mounted to a T-bar, wall or ceiling a

using the enclosed mounting kits. Refer to the following sections:

•Mounting on a Flat Surface

•Mounting on a Recessed Drop-Ceiling T-Bar

•Mounting on a Flush Drop-Ceiling T-Bar

•Mounting on a Truss or Pole

Mounting on a Flat Surface

1Use the Mounting Template on the last page of this Quick

Setup Guide as a template to mark the locations for drill holes

on the mounting surface. There are two sets of keyholes

available on the AP. One allows the AP to be mounted to a wall

or ceiling. The other allows the Unleashed R600 to be mounted

to an accessory bracket (not included).

2Use a 5mm drill bit to drill holes approximately 25mm into the

mounting surface (A in Figure 9.).

3Insert the anchors and mounting screws into the mounting

surface, leaving approximately 1/4” (6 mm) of the screw heads

protruding for the AP enclosure.

4Insert the unit removal pin into the hole on the side of the AP to

release the locking mechanism (B in Figure 9.).

5Place the AP onto the mounting screws so that the screw

heads enter the mounting holes on the AP enclosure, and push

the AP down to lock in place.

6Remove the unit removal pin to release the locking mechanism

and secure the AP.

7To remove the AP, insert the unit removal pin into the hole on

the side of the AP to unlock, then push the AP up to release the

AP enclosure from the mounting screws.

Mounting on a Recessed Drop-Ceiling T-Bar

The enclosed T-bar bracket supports mounting to recessed drop

ceiling T-bars.

Mounting an AP using the External Bracket

1Insert the unit removal pin (A in Figure 10.) into the hole on the

side of the Unleashed R600 (B in Figure 10.) to release the

locking mechanism.

Figure 10. . Attaching the external bracket to the AP

2Position the studs on the bottom of the T-bar bracket (C in

Figure 10.) in the mounting holes on the Unleashed R600

enclosure, and then slide the T-bar bracket until the studs are in

the narrow parts of the Unleashed R600 mounting keyholes

(arrow).

3Remove the unit removal pin (A in Figure 10.) to engage the

locking mechanism and secure the T-bar bracket to the

Unleashed R600.

4Make sure that the locking tab (D in Figure 10.) is in the first

position on the T-bar bracket (C in Figure 10.).

5Gently push the ceiling tiles up and out of the way.

6Position the T-bar bracket so its two clasps grip one edge of

the T-bar (A in Figure 11.). Make sure that both clasps are

gripping the T-bar.

Figure 11. . Attaching the external bracket to the T-bar

7Hold the Unleashed R600 in place and gently push the locking

tab (B in Figure 11.) until its clasp grips the other edge of the T-

bar.

Removing an External Bracket from a T-Bar

1Move the ceiling tiles out of the way.

2Gently lift up the locking tab (A in Figure 12.) by sliding your

fingers under the tab.

3While lifting up on the locking tab, rotate the Unleashed R600-

and-T-bar bracket assembly (B in Figure 12.). The Unleashed

R600-and-T-bar bracket assembly comes away from the T-bar.

Removing an External Bracket from an AP

1Insert the unit removal pin (A in Figure 13.) into the hole on the

side of the Unleashed R600.

2Gently lift up the retainer tab (B in Figure 13.).

3Gently push the T-bar bracket (C in Figure 13.) until it detaches

from the Unleashed R600.

•Mounting an AP using the Integrated Bracket

•Removing an AP Integrated Bracket from a T-Bar

Mounting an AP using the Integrated Bracket

1Orient the AP so that the T-bar is positioned between the T-bar

clips as shown in Figure 14., then rotate the AP until the third T-

bar clip catches the T-bar and the latch locks the T-bar in place

(Figure 15.).

2Insert the Torx security screw into the hole near the latch to lock

the AP in place.

Removing an AP Integrated Bracket from a T-Bar

1To remove the AP from a T-bar, first remove the security screw,

then depress the latch while rotating the AP so that the T-bar

clips disengage the T-bar.

Mounting on a Truss or Pole

1Feed the customer-supplied cable ties through the two slots on

the back of the Unleashed R600.

2Fasten the Unleashed R600 to the truss or pole using the cable

ties.

Note: This mounting bracket can also be used on a

flush drop-ceiling T-bar, so the four rubber feet on the

bottom of the AP minimize ceiling tile displacement.
