Preparing the Access Point

Before you mount and deploy your access point, perform a site survey to determine the best location to install your

access point. For more information about site surveys, see Site Survey Guidelines for WLAN Deployment at:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless/5500-series-wireless-controllers/116057-site-survey-guidelin

es-wlan-00.html

Obtain this information about your wireless network:

• Access point locations

• Access point mounting options: below a suspended ceiling, on a flat horizontal surface, or on a desktop

• Access point AC adapter power over Ethernet (PoE) options:

– Recommended external power supply (Cisco AIR-PWR-B)

– PoE capable switch, such as the Stratix 8000, 5700, 5400, or 5410

– Recommended external PoE power injector (Cisco AIR-PWR-INJ4)

Access points that are mounted in an environmental air-space must be powered by using PoE to comply with safety

regulations. Make a site map that shows the access point locations so that you can record the device MAC IDs from

each location. Provide this information to the manager of your wireless network.

Help Prevent Damage to the Access Point

To help prevent damage to your WAP, follow these guidelines when you connect devices to the access point.

You can mount the access point above a suspended ceiling, but you must purchase additional mounting hardware. See

Stratix 5100 Wireless Access Point/Workgroup Bridge User Manual, publication 1783-UM006

. Install the Stratix WAP

above the ceiling tiles only when mounting below the ceiling is not an option.

Grounding the Access Point

Grounding is not always required for indoor installations because the access point is classified as a low-voltage device

and does not contain an internal power supply. However, check your local and National Electrical Codes to see if

grounding is a requirement.

If grounding is required in your area or you decide to ground your access point, follow these steps.

1. Find a suitable building grounding point as close to the access point as possible.

2. Connect a user-supplied ground wire to the building grounding point.

The wire should be a minimum of 2.5 mm

(14 AWG) assuming a circuit length of 7.62 m (25 ft). Consult your local

electrical codes for additional information.

3. Route the ground wire to the access point.

4. Insert the grounding post screw into the O-ring lug and install it on the mounting bracket as shown this figure.

5. Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the ground screw.

Mounting the Access Point

The Stratix 5100 WAP comes with a low-profile access point mounting bracket. This bracket can be mounted flush on a

flat surface, or directly onto a ceiling, or onto ceiling grid-work.

This procedure describes the steps that are required to mount the access point with a mounting bracket on a flat

surface constructed of 19.05 mm (3/4 in.) or thicker plywood by using appropriate fasteners.

Follow these steps to mount the access point on a solid ceiling or wall.

1. Place the mounting bracket on the surface where you are going to mount the access point.

2. To mark the locations of the mounting holes on the bracket, use the mounting bracket as a template.

3. Use a drill to create a pilot hole at the mounting hole locations you marked.

4. Drill or cut a cable access hole near and below the location of the mounting bracket cable-access cover large

enough for the Ethernet cable, building ground wire, and power cables.

5. Route the cables through an access hole on the mounting bracket.

6. Use the ground screw to attach the building ground wire to the mounting bracket.

See Grounding the Access Point on page 3 for general grounding instructions.

7. Position the mounting bracket mounting holes (with indents down) over the pilot holes.

8. Insert a fastener into each mounting hole and tighten.

9. Connect the Ethernet and power cables to the access point.

10.Align the access point feet with the large part of the keyhole mounting slots on the mounting plate.

When positioned correctly, the cable access cover fits inside the access-point connector bay.

11. Gently slide the access point onto the mounting-bracket keyhole slots until it clicks into place.

Secure the Access Point with a Standard Security Cable

There are two ways to secure your access point:

• Attach it to an immovable object with a security cable.

• Lock it to the mounting plate with a padlock.

You can secure the access point by installing a standard security cable into the access-point security cable slot.

To install the security cable, follow these steps.

1. Loop the security cable around a nearby immovable object.

2. Insert the key into the security cable lock.

3. Insert the security cable latch into the security cable slot on the access point.

4. Rotate the key right or left to secure the security cable lock to the access point.

5. Remove the key.

Secure the Access Point to the Mounting Plate

Use a padlock (that you provide) to secure your access point to the mounting plate.

Compatible padlocks are Master Lock models 120T or 121T. The cable access cover on the mounting bracket covers the

cable bay area (including the power port, Ethernet port, console port, and the mode button). The cover helps prevent

the installation or removal of the cables or the activation of the mode button.

To install the padlock, follow these steps.

1. With the access point installed on the mounting bracket, insert a padlock into the bracket.

2. Rotate the lock clockwise and align the bail with the lock body.

3. Grasp the lock and push it into the bail to lock the lock.

Apply Power

Access point power options include:

• Power adapter, Cisco AIR-PWR-B

• PoE power injector/hub, Cisco AIR-PWR-INJ4

• PoE capable switch, such as the Stratix 8000, 5700, 5400, or 5410

Access points mounted in the environmental airspace of as building can be powered by using PoE to comply with

safety regulations.

To apply power with the power adapter, follow these steps.

1. Attach the power cord to AC adapter.

2. Plug the adapter (with the power cord attached) into the Stratix 5100 WAP.

3. Plug the power cord into the outlet.

To apply power with the PoE power injector/hub, follow these steps.

1. Connect the injector to the building network.

2. Connect the injector to the Stratix 5100 WAP.

3. Connect the power adapter to the injector.

To apply power with the PoE capable switch, follow these steps.

1. Connect the Stratix 5100 WAP to the PoE capable switch.

2. Make sure that you are using a port capable of providing PoE.

3. If the Stratix 5100 WAP does not turn on, check the settings on your PoE switch to make sure that the PoE feature is

properly configured.

Rockwell Automation Publication 1783-PC007D-EN-P - February 2017

Ethernet Cable Recommendation

While the Stratix 5100 WAP works well with the CAT-5e cable for 10/100 MB installations, we recommend that you

use CAT-6a cable for 1 GB installations.

External Antennas

The Stratix 5100 WAP is configured with up to four external dual-band dipole antennas, and 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz

dual-band radios in a 3 x 4 multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) configuration with three spatial streams. The

radios and antennas support frequency bands 2400…2500 MHz and 5150…5850 MHz through a common

dual-band RF interface.

Antenna Cable Recommendation

Keep antenna cable runs as short as possible. Cisco offers low loss (LL) and ultralow loss (ULL) cables which have the

same characteristics as Times Microwave LMR-400 and LMR-600. When drilling holes for cable, allow for the size of

connector drill bit, typically15.8750 mm (5/8 in.).

Cisco cables carry the part number AIR-CAB (Aironet Cable) and then a length. For example, a 20 ft length of LL cable

with RP-TNC connector is Cisco AIR-CAB-020LL-R. These heavy black cables are not plenum rated and are primarily for

use in manufacturing areas.

Access Point Spacing Recommendation

If you have a Wi-Fi device such as a WAP and want to use another WAP in the vicinity on a different channel, space the

WAPs approximately 2 m (6 ft) apart. This recommended distance is based on the assumption that both devices

operate in the unlicensed band and do not transmit RF energy more than 23 dB, that is, 200 mW. If higher power is

used, space farther apart. Avoid clustering the WAPs or the antennas from different WAPs together because

performance can be degraded.

If you have other devices that transmit, follow these instructions.

1. Move or separate the devices as far apart as reasonable.

This is especially important if they operate in the same frequency ranges; for example, frequency hopping legacy

WAPs or other devices operate just below or above the 2.4 Ghz and 5 GHz band.

2. Check for interference.

3. Test both types of devices simultaneously under heavy use (load).

4. Characterize each system independently to see whether degradation exists.

IDF Closets (Telecommunications or Other Electrical Equipment)

When installing WAPs near other electrical or telecommunications equipment, keep all wiring and metal away from

the antennas, and avoid placing the antennas near electrical lines. Do not route electrical wiring or Ethernet cabling in

the near field 38 cm (15 in.) of the antenna, and try not to install the WAP in an electrical closet. Local fire and safety

regulations can require you to use a plenum-rated cable if your antenna cables come from an electrical closet.

Remember that the best place for the WAP is as close to its users.

Very High Altitudes

While not defined in the specification sheet for the Stratix 5100 WAPs, the units have passed functional checks after a

non-operational altitude test of 25 °C @ 4572 m (77 °F @ 15,000 ft) was performed. Additionally, the units passed a

functional test during an operational altitude test of 40 °C @ 3000 m (104 °F @ 9843 ft). All units in the test group were

connected to at least one WLAN client and were monitored for continual operation passing traffic, with constant ping

testing throughout the operational altitude test.

Common or Distributed Antenna System (DAS)

Due to the dual-band nature of the antenna system on the Stratix 5100 WAP along with key features such as ClientLink

2.0 beamforming, the Stratix 5100 WAP is not recommended for deployments on distributed antenna systems (DAS).

Rockwell Automation does not certify, endorse, or provide RF support for Wi-Fi deployments over any DAS.

The DAS vendor and systems integrator are solely responsible for the support of the DAS products, adequate RF

coverage, and any RF-related issues. This support includes, but is not exclusive to, location accuracy, RF coverage,

roaming issues related to RF, multipath issues, and scalability.

The DAS vendor and system integrators are responsible for understanding that the deployed DAS system meets the

requirements of all customer Wi-Fi devices and applications over the DAS system.

Verify Connections

Follow these instructions to verify that all devices are properly connected to the WAP.

1. Turn on all connected devices.

2. Check the status indicators.

3. Use the status indicators to verify the wireless access-point operation.

4. Use the Stratix 5100 Device Manager software to configure your device.

You can expect small variations in color intensity and hue from unit to unit. The variations are within the normal range

of the status indicator specifications and are not an anomaly.
