Installation Procedure

This section covers the following contents:

• Preparing installation tools

• Checking the device before installation

• Attaching the antennas

• Mounting the access point

Preparing Installation Tools

Prepare the following tools before installation:

• Mounting bracket and screws that come with the device

• Electric screwdriver and Phillips screwdriver

• One electric drill and several auxiliary drill bits

Checking the Device Before Installation

Before mounting the WA2110-AG, connect it to the power adapter (if

applicable) and the Ethernet, and check the status of the LEDs to ensure

that the WA2110-AG can work properly. In addition, record the MAC

address of the access point for future use.

Attaching the Antennas

Attach the antennas accompanying the access point on to the antenna

connectors on the access point and hand-tighten them. After network

startup, you may need to adjust the antennas to fine-tune the coverage in

your area. For best results, adjust the antennas so that they are

perpendicular with the floor or ceiling.

CAUTION:

Do not handle the antenna tips, especially after they are connected to the

access point. This could lead to electrostatic dischar

e (ESD), which could

damage the equipment.

WARNING!

Do not touch or remove the access point when its antenna is receivin

transmitting radio frequency signals.

Mounting the Access Point

The access point can be mounted on walls, ceilings, or tabletops.

Wall, ceiling mounting

To mount the access point to a wall or ceiling, follow these steps:

Remove the access point from the mounting bracket.

2. Route the Ethernet cable and, if you are using a power adapter, the

power cable on the back of the mounting bracket, as shown in

Figure 3.

CAUTION:

• For easy installation and removal of the access point from the

mounting bracket, make sure that there is sufficient flexibility with the

cable and that the cable is lon

enou

h. If not enou

h cable is routed

throu

h the back of the mountin

bracket, or the cable is inflexible, it

can be difficult to install or remove the access point from the mounting

bracket.

• It is recommended to use flexible cables.

Figure 3 Cabling on the back of the bracket

3. Mount the bracket to a wall or ceiling, as shown in Figure 4.

Figure 4 Mount the bracket (unit: mm)

4. Connect the Ethernet cable and, if you are using a power adapter, the

power cable to the corresponding port(s) on the access point.

CAUTION:

• To avoid connection interference caused by dust, clean the pins of the

cable connector before connecting the cable to the access point.

• Discharge the cable before connecting it to the access point.

WARNING!

• In the case of lightning, do not plug/unplug the cable to/from the

access point.

• When the LEDs of the access point are blinkin

, do not plu

/unplu

the cable to/from the access point or perform any operation that may

affect the normal running of the access point.

5. Align the bottom of the access point with the mounting bracket, and

press the access point backward. Thus, the access point is mounted in

the mounting bracket properly.

WARNING!

To avoid physical dama

e to the access point, do not mount or dismoun

the access point with excessive force.

6. To prevent the access point from being stolen, insert the locking bar (as

shown in (1) of

Figure 5) into the opening at one side of the mounting

bracket. Push the locking bar through the opening until the hole on the

locking bar is exposed. Insert the shackle of a lock through the hole on

the locking bar to lock the access point with the mounting bracket, as

shown in (2) of

Figure 5.

Figure 5 Lock the access point with the mounting bracket

Tabletop mounting

To install the access point on a flat surface such as a table or desktop,

follow these steps:

1. Remove the access point from the mounting bracket.

WARNING!

When the RF antennas are transmitting data, keep the antennas away

from your face, eyes, and other exposed part of your body.

2. Place the access point on the table.

WARNING!

• Do not mount the access point on any metal surface. Place it at a

position with good signal coverage.

• Do not use or manipulate the access point near any uncovered

exploders or in any other explosive environments, unless otherwise

authorized by related functionaries.

3. Connect the Ethernet cable and, if you are using a power adapter, the

power cable to the corresponding port(s) on the access point.

Connecting the Access Point to an Access

Controller/Unified Switch

You can connect the access point to an access controller/unified switch

directly, or indirectly through an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network.

In either case, use a Category 5e cable for the connection.

You are recommended to install and configure the access

controller/unified switch before installing the access point. This is to

ensure that you can verify whether the access point works normally

immediately after you connect it. For instructions on configuring the

access controller or unified switch. refer to H3C WX Series Access

Controllers Configuration Guides, H3C WX Series Access Controllers

Command References and H3C WX Series Access Controllers

Web-Based Configuration Guide.
