3.2 Installation Checklist

Check the following items before installing the AP:

• Power on the AP and connect the Ethernet cable. Inspect the LED status to make sure the AP is working normally.
• Record AP's MAC address and serial number (MAC address and serial numbers are located on the back of the AP).

3.3 Installation Placement

Here are some tips for AP placement:

• Cut back the obstacles (such as walls) between AP and the user terminal device as much as possible.
• Install APs far away from electrical devices that create RF noise such as the microwave.

3.4 Installing the WAP3xDC

The installation methods of WAP33DC and WAP38DC are very similar. Both APs can be installed using two methods:

• Wall hanging installation
- T-keel installation

3.4.1 Wall Hanging Installation

Use the wall mounting bracket and the supporting expansion bolts and screws if you plan to install the device to a wall.

Fig 3-2 wall mounting bracket size and block diagram (unit: mm)

If you choose to install the AP using the wall hanging method, we recommend connecting the Ethernet cable to the AP first and then install the AP to the wall mounting bracket.

(1) Connect the AP to the POE port by using the cable

Place the mounting kit flat against the wall and mark the holes where the screws are going to be. Punch four holes using an impact drill.

Insert the expansion bolt into the holes and use a hammer it down until the bolt completely goes into the wall.

Match the screw holes to the expansion bolt holes on the wall. The screws should pass through the installation holes of the wall mounting kit. Lock the wall mounting kit to the wall.

(2) Match up the mounting holes on the back of AP to the position of the pegs on the wall mounting kit:

(3) Hang the AP onto the pegs of the wall mounting kit

(4) Place the AP onto the mounting kit, aligning the peg with the peg holes. Slide until the pegs move to the bottom of the holes

(5) Finally, on the WAP33DC, lock the stationary blanks of the chassis to the AP and screw the wall mounting bracket using the M3 screws

3.4.2 T-keel Installation

1. The width of T-keel is from 12mm to 30mm.
2. This installation method is only applied to the T-keel

The square hole on the rail in the wall mounting kit will be used for this method:

(4) Use the four M3x7 fastening screws under the T-keel until the T-keel is firmly locked in.
(5) Match the mounting holes on the back of AP with the pegs on the mounting kit. Hang it onto the pegs
(6) Slide the AP until the pegs pass through the anti-loose hook

3.5 AP Power Options

The WAP3xDC series supports both local power and PoE.

WAP33DC adopts the 802.3af/802.3at PoE power supply. WAP38DC adopts the 802.3af/802.3at PoE power supply.

Table 3-1 power adapter specifications

Items	Explanation
Power Adapter Input	100-240V AC
Power Adapter Output	+12V---2A

The WAP3xDC series supports the AC/DC power adapters. You can connect the power interface of the device to local power through the power adapter.

3.6 Connecting to the Internet

The APs can uplink to the Internet or WAN through the Ethernet port. Connect the Ethernet port of the AP to the switch port to achieve an uplink connection.
