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. Arrows on the AP 300 case guide
placement of the screws. For placement above a suspended ceiling, a
safety cable tie point on the case provides for a loop of regulatory safety
cable, and the light pipe, a pair of small pipes, fits through a hole in the
ceiling tile to provide a view of the AP 300’s status lights.
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.

Description
The AP 300 Access Port has two radios capable of concurrent 802.11a/
b/g radio configurations. The AP 300 external version supports external
antennas listed in Supported Antennas on page 9. The AP 300 takes
power from any 802.3af-compatible Power Over Ethernet (PoE) switch
or power injector.

The AP 300 has one RJ-45 connector for a 10/100 Ethernet port, and
two pairs of antenna connectors: Reverse BNC for 2.4 to 2.5GHz and
Reverse SMA for 4.9 to 5.875GHz. The LAN port connects to a wireless
switch with a standard CAT-5 cable, straight through or cross-over,
without any strain relief.
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 appear on the top of the case for a wall
mount. With the unit mounted above a ceiling, the LEDs are at the center
of an oval badge on the ceiling; a light pipe enables the view through the
ceiling tile.

802.11a Activity LED Amber
Booting
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.

Installation Instructions
The AP 300 mounts either on a wall with wide-shouldered screws
included or in the ceiling.
Before Beginning
Perform the following:
• Match the model number on the purchase order with the model
numbers in the packing list and on the case of the device shipped.
• Verify that the contents of the box include the intended AP 300 and
the mounting hardware:

purchasable item.
Mounting Hardware: Two wide-shoulder Phillips
pan head self-tapping screws.
•

2. Using the arrows on the edge of the case as guides, move the
edge to the midline of the mounting area and mark points on the
midline for the screws.
3. At each point, screw in the self-tapping screws and stop where the
threads meet the shank or shoulder of the screw.
4. If required, install and attach a security cable to the unit’s lock port.

5. Place the large corner of each of the case’s mount slots over the
screw heads.
6. Slide the case down along the mounting surface to hang the
mount slots on the screw heads.
7. Attach the Ethernet cable.
8. Verify the unit has power by observing that the LEDs are lit or
flashing.

Suspended Ceiling Tile (Plenum) Mount
In this procedure, place the AP 300 above a suspended ceiling.
Note:
Notes or warnings about suspended ceiling mounts apply to
all installations where the unit is placed on suspended ceiling
tile. The AP 300 case has a safety cable tie point for a
standard safety cable.
Caution: Symbol does not recommend mounting the AP 300 directly to
any suspended ceiling tile with a thickness less than 1.27cm
(0.5in.) or a suspended ceiling tile with an unsupported span
greater than 66cm (26in.). Symbol does strongly recommend
fitting the AP 300 with a safety cable suitable for the specific
installation. The safety cable should be steel—a steel wire
rope to the standard ceiling suspension cable—and in
diameter at least .159cm (.062in.) to .25cm (.10in.).
This placement requires installation of the provided light pipe for viewing
the status lights of the unit.
