Introduction The AP 300 Access Port, a component of the Symbol Wireless Switch System, links wireless 802.11a/b/g devices to the switch, enabling incremental growth of your wireless network with a cost-effective alternative to standard access points. For optimal performance, the AP 300 provides two placement options: wall and ceiling. Wall mount slots fit onto two screws provided; marks on the AP 300 case guide placement of the screws. Clips on the back of the case fit onto a suspended ceiling T-bar. The AP 300 receives all power and transfers data through the same CAT-5 cable without any strain relief. There is no additional power supply.

Safety Cable Tie Point RJ-45 Connector Lock Port 4 AP 300 Quick Reference Guide FINAL.Not for distribution. The AP 300 receives power through the Ethernet cable, optionally connected to a Port Power Injector—for example, Symbol Model APPSBIAS-T-12-AF Power Injector 12 Port. See the Symbol web site for available PoE devices. Review installation plans to determine device placement and cable routing. The AP 300 Access Port comprises two 802.11 radios: an 802.11b/g radio operating in the 2.4 to 2.5GHz band and an 802.11a radio operating in the 4.9 to 5.875GHz band. Each radio has an embedded controller which runs local firmware used to perform the functions of the lower 802.11 MAC. All upper MAC functions and MAC management are controlled by the Wireless Switch. Motherboard firmware enables the AP 300 to boot after either a power up or a watchdog reset. After self-boot, the motherboard sends an “I am alive” message into the network to be adopted and loaded with the actual runtime code. The boot firmware on the motherboard and the firmware downloaded from the switch can be modified via the Ethernet interface from either the Wireless Switch or by other Symbol diagnostic software tools. LED Indicators The LED activity indicators on the top of the case provide a status display indicating error conditions, transmission, and network activity for the 802.11a (amber) radio or the 802.11b/g (green) radio. 802.11a Activity LED Amber Booting Normal Error The amber LED flashes three times per second until firmware is loaded. During boot, no 802.11a mobiles can associate. After adoption, the amber LED is steady or flashes with 802.11a radio traffic. The amber LED flashes once per second if an error prevents the 802.11a radio from operating normally. 802.11b/g Activity LED Green Booting Normal Error The green LED flashes three times per second until firmware is loaded. During boot, no 802.11b/g mobiles can associate. After adoption, the green LED is steady or flashes with 802.11b/g radio traffic. The green LED flashes once per second if an error prevents the 802.11b/g radio from operating normally. 5 FINAL.Not for distribution.
