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.

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.
