The AP-5181 is a ruggedized access point designed for outdoor deployments. The AP-5181
employs a dual-mode simultaneous 802.11a and 802.11g radio solution. Unlike the AP-5131
model access point, there is just the one dual-radio mechanical version of the AP-5181 (no
single radio model is available).
Introduction
Note: A RJ-45 to Serial (9-pin D) cable is required to make a connection to the AP-5181’s
Console port. This cable is not supplied and must be provided by the customer.
To mount the AP-5181 access point to a pole (1.5 - 18 inches in diameter) or wall, an AP-5181
Mounting Kit (Part No. KT-5181-WP-01R) can be separately ordered. This kit contains the
brackets and accessories required to mount the access point.
Before operating any equipment, review this document for any hazards associated with
installation and use of the device. Also, review standard practices for preventing accidents.
• Only trained and qualified personnel should install and remove the Power Injector.
• The power cord must be a three-conductor type (two current carrying conductors and one
ground conductor) terminated on one end by an IEC 60320 appliance coupler (for Power
Injector connection) and on the other end by a plug containing a ground (earth) contact.
• The power cord must be rated for a minimum of 250VAC RMS operation, with a minimum
rated current capacity of 5A [or a minimum wire gauge of 18AWG (0.75mm²)].
• The AC wall-socket outlet must be near the Power Injector and easily accessible.
• The Power Injector Data and Data & Power interfaces are qualified as SELV (Safety
Extra-Low Voltage) circuits according to IEC 60950. These interfaces can only be
connected to SELV interfaces on other equipment.
Warnings
• Read the installation instructions before connecting the Power Injector to a
power source.
• Follow basic electricity safety measures whenever connecting the Power Injector to its
power source.
• This product relies on the building installation for short-circuit (over current) protection.
Ensure a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 3A U.S. (240VAC, 1.5A
international) is used on the phase conductor.
• A voltage mismatch can cause equipment damage and could pose a fire hazard. If the
voltage indicated on the label is different from the power outlet voltage, do not connect
the Power Injector to that particular outlet.
• The Power Injector Data In and Data & Power Out ports are shielded RJ-45 sockets.
Only RJ-45 data connectors should be connected to these sockets.
If installing the AP-5181 in an outdoor area prone to high winds and rain, Symbol
recommends using the AP-5181 Heavy Weather Kit (Part No. KT-5181-HW-01R).
This kit affords additional protection to shield an AP-5181 from high wind and water
damage as a result of driving rain.
If using a single-port Power-Over-Ethernet solution to supply power to the AP-5181,
Symbol recommends using the AP-5181 Power Tap (Part No. AP-PSBIAS-5181-01R).
This single-port power injector is designed specifically for outdoor use with the AP-5181.

Safety in Hospitals
When users purchase a Symbol WLAN solution, they often need to place access points in
obscure locations. In the past, a dedicated power source was required for each access point in
addition to the Ethernet infrastructure. This often required an electrical contractor to install
power drops at each access point location. An approved 802.3af solution merges power and
Ethernet into one cable, reducing the burden of installation and allows optimal access point
placement in respect to the intended radio coverage area.
An AP-5181 model access point can use one of two approved Symbol single-port solutions.
Both the Symbol Power Tap (Part No. AP-PSBIAS-5181-01R) and Symbol Power Injector (Part
No. AP-PSBIAS-1P2-AFR) are integrated AC-DC converters and 802.3af Power Injectors using
110-220V AC power to combine low-voltage DC with Ethernet data in a single cable connecting
to the AP-5181’s LAN port. The Symbol Power Tap is a ruggedized solution (designed for outdoor
deployments), and may be better suited for an AP-5181 installation prone to wind and rain. A
Power Injector (Part No. AP-PSBIAS-1P2-AFR) can only be used for indoor installations. A Power
Injector or Power Tap receives power and is ready for AP-5181 connection and operation as
soon as AC power is applied. There in no On/Off switch.
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed in this guide, and have a
maximum gain of 9dBi (2.4GHz) and 10dBi (5GHz). Antennas not included in this list or having a
gain greater than 9dBi (2.4GHz) and 10dBi (5GHz) are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
Label Marking: The Term "IC:" before the radio certification signifies that Industry Canada
