6Before You BeginGet to Know the Access Point FeaturesGet to Know the Access Point FeaturesFigure 4 and Figure 5 identify the Access Point features that are relevant to the installation and mounting instructions that this guide provides. Before you begin the installation process, Ruckus Wireless recommends that you become familiar with these features.Figure 4. Access Point parts Power LED Status LEDExternal Antenna ConnectorsRJ-45/PoE ConnectorsDC ConnectorGround Screw
7Before You BeginGet to Know the Access Point FeaturesTable 1. LEDs and connectors on the APLabel DescriptionPower LED •Off: No power is available, or the Access Point is not connected to a power source.•Red: The Access Point is powering on.•Green: The Access Point is connected to a power source and has completed its power-on sequence.Status LED If the Access Point is operating in standalone mode:•Amber: The WLAN service is up and at least one wireless client is associated with the AP.•Flashing amber: The WLAN service is up and no wireless clients are currently associated with the AP.If the Access Point is being managed by Ruckus Wireless ZoneDirector:•Green: The AP is part of a mesh network (either as Root AP or Mesh AP) and is connected to an uplink with good signal.•Fast flashing green: The AP is part of a mesh network (as Mesh AP) and is connected to an uplink with fair signal.•Slow flashing green: This Mesh AP is searching for an uplink or is attempting to establish communication with ZoneDirector.RJ45 Connectors Two LAN ports that support Power over Ethernet (PoE):•PoE IN port: Supports 10/100/1000Mbps connections, connects to the network and receives 802.at PoE from the supplied PoE injector (if connected).•PoE OUT port: Supports 10/100/1000Mbps connections. If the supplied PoE injector is used, this port can supply 802.af PoE to the connected PoE-capable device (for example, another ZoneFlex 7762 AP or an IP-based surveillance camera). To use this port to supply PoE, you first need to enable the PoE feature on the Web interface. For more information, refer to “(Optional) Enable PoE for the PoE OUT Port” on page 31. DC Connector In addition to PoE, you can also use direct current or DC (from a battery, for example) to supply power to the Access Point.
8Before You BeginGet to Know the Access Point FeaturesIf you want to extend the range of your wireless network, you can connect external high gain antennas to the standard N-type radio frequency (RF) antenna connectors on the top panel of the Access Point. The antennas must have a gain of less than 14dBi to comply with FCC and CE regulations. For more information, refer to “(Optional) Mounting and Connecting the External Antennas” on page 51.Figure 5. The antenna connectors are protected by metal capsMetal caps
9Before You BeginPerform a Site SurveyPerform a Site SurveyBefore installing the Access Point, perform a site survey to determine the optimal Access Point placement or maximum range, coverage, and network performance. When performing a site survey, consider the following factors:■Data rates: Range is generally inversely proportional to data rates. The maximum radio range is achieved at the lowest workable data rate. Higher data rates will generally be achieved at closer distances.■Antenna type and placement: Proper antenna configuration is a critical factor in maximizing radio range. As a general rule, radio range is increased by mounting the radio higher off of the ground with the Access Point oriented so that the dome is facing down (for recommended orientation examples, refer to Figure 6 on page 10). If you are connecting an external antenna to the Access Point, mount the Access Point so that the external antenna is pointing down.■Physical environment: Clear or open areas provide better radio range than closed or filled areas. The less cluttered the operating environment, the greater the wireless range.■Obstructions, building materials, and sources of interference: Physical obstructions, such as concrete pillars, steel beams, filing cabinets, buildings, or trees, can block or hinder wireless communication. Avoid installing the Access Point in an environment where there is an obstruction between sending and receiving devices. A number of machines and electronic devices that emit radio waves – cranes, wireless phones, microwave ovens, satellite dishes – interfere with and block wireless signals. Building materials used in construction also influence radio signal penetration. For example, drywall construction permits greater range than concrete blocks. For more Access Point placement guidelines, refer to “Determine the Optimal Mounting Location and Orientation”.
10Before You BeginDetermine the Optimal Mounting Location and OrientationDetermine the Optimal Mounting Location and OrientationThe location and orientation that you choose for the Access Point play a critical role in the performance of your wireless network. In general, Ruckus Wireless recommends installing the Access Point away from obstructions and sources of interference and ensuring that the Access Point’s dome is pointing in the general direction of its wireless clients.Figure 6.

13Before You BeginBecome Familiar with the Installation ComponentsBecome Familiar with the Installation ComponentsThe Access Point can be installed in an indoor or outdoor environment, such as an interior wall or ceiling or the exterior roof overhang of a building or a streetlight pole. Refer to Figure 9 for the components involved in a typical installation. Take note of the components that must be installed indoor and outdoor. The PoE injector and power adapter that are shipped with the Access Point are for indoor use only. Ruckus Wireless also strongly recommends that you form a drip loop on any cable that is connected to devices that are installed outdoor (for example, the Access Point).Figure 9. Typical installation components using both PoE and DC power sources WARNING: Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.WARNING: Installation of this equipment must comply with local and national electrical codes.CAUTION: Make sure that you form a 3”-5” drip loop in any cable that is attached to the Access Point. This will prevent water from running along the cable and entering the Access Point or the building where the cable terminates.INDOOR OUTDOOR DC power sourceRouter or switch PoE injectorLightning arrestorZoneFlex 7762 Outdoor APCAT5 Ethernet cablePoE power adapterOutdoor-rated FTP cableDrip loopOutdoor-rated FTP cableDC cable
14Configuring the Access PointDecide How You Will Supply Power to the Access PointCAUTION: Be sure that grounding is available and that it meets local and national electrical codes. For additional lightning protection, use lightning rods and lightning arrestors..WARNING: The Ruckus Wireless PoE injector (if supplied with your Access Point) is for indoor use only. Never mount the PoE injector outdoor with the Access Point.Decide How You Will Supply Power to the Access PointThe Access Point supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) and 12V DC power and can be connected to both power sources at the same time. If you connect the Access Point to both PoE and DC power sources at the same time, it will use DC power as the primary power source and PoE as the backup power source. 4Configuring the Access PointThe procedure for completing the Access Point’s essential configuration depends on whether you want it to be managed by either ZoneDirector or FlexMaster or to operate as a standalone access point. Refer to the section that is relevant to your deployment:■Configuring for Management by ZoneDirector■Configuring for Standalone Operation or for Management by FlexMasterConfiguring for Management by ZoneDirectorIf ZoneDirector is installed on the network, you can configure the Access Point for management by ZoneDirector. Simply connect the Access Point to same Layer 2 subnet as ZoneDirector. When the Access Point starts up, it will discover and register with ZoneDirector automatically.NOTE: In addition to using Layer 2 auto discovery to enable the Access Point to register with ZoneDirector, you can also use DHCP Option 43 or DNS. For more information, refer to the ZoneDirector User Guide.
15Configuring the Access PointConfiguring for Management by ZoneDirectorBefore starting this procedure, check the back panel of the Access Point (above the recess where the bottom connectors are located), and then write down the MAC address of the Access Point.
