Frequently Asked Questions - AWA6220-W Dahua Technology

How can I power the AWA6220-W access point?

You can power the AP either through Power over Ethernet (PoE) using a PoE switch or injector (802.3af/at), or with a local power adapter (48-54 VDC, ≥16 W) connected to the power port.

What do the LEDs on the AP indicate?

The AP has multiple LEDs: Power LED (steady green = registered to AC, flashing = various states), Radio LED (flashing green = 2.4G clients, flashing yellow = 5G clients, alternating = both), Uplink port LED (steady green = 1000 Mbps, steady yellow = 10/100 Mbps, flashing = activity), and Ethernet port LEDs (similar color scheme).

How do I reset the AP to factory defaults?

Press and hold the Reset button for 5 to 20 seconds until the LED flashes green at 2 Hz. Release the button to restore factory defaults. A short press (0-5 seconds) only resets the device.

What are the physical dimensions and weight of the AWA6220-W?

The AP measures 30 × 160 × 86 mm (1.18 × 6.30 × 3.39 in) and weighs 0.25 kg (0.55 lb).

Can I connect a phone line or additional Ethernet cable through the AP?

Yes, the AP has two pass-through ports (standard RJ-45) on the rear and bottom. You can connect either a phone cable or an Ethernet cable to extend connectivity through the device.

Is the USB port only for charging or can I use it for data?

The USB port supports both charging and data reading/writing. You can connect a USB device for data transfer or to charge a peripheral.

What is the maximum power consumption of the AP?

Without a USB device attached, the maximum power consumption is ≤12.95 W. With a USB device attached, it increases to ≤15.45 W.

How can I verify that the AP is successfully connected to the network?

On the AC (Access Controller), execute the command 'display wlan ap all'. If the AP status shows 'R/M' (Run/Master), the AP has been connected and registered.

What tools are needed for installing the AWA6220-W?

You may need a Philips screwdriver, needle-nose screwdriver, wire stripper, wire crimper, and Torx screwdriver. The AP comes with a mounting bracket and screws.

What pre-installation tasks should I complete?

Before installation, power on the AP and connect it to the network to verify it works (check LEDs). Also record the MAC address and serial number for future reference.

Pre-installation tasks

Before installing the AP, perform the following tasks:

• Power on the AP and connect the AP to the network. Examine the LEDs to verify that the AP is operating correctly. For information about the LEDs, see "LEDs."
  • Record the MAC address and serial number of the AP for future use.

Mounting the AP

1. As shown in Figure 2-2, use M4 screws to attach the mounting bracket to an electrical outlet box.

Figure 2-2 Attaching the mounting bracket to an electrical outlet box

1. As shown in Figure 2-3, connect cables to the pass-through port and uplink/PoE in port on the rear of the AP.

The pass-through ports on the rear and bottom of the AP are standard RJ-45 ports. You can connect phone cables or Ethernet cables to the pass-through ports as needed.

1. Secure the AP to the mounting bracket, as shown in Figure 2-4.

a. Align the mounting peg on the mounting bracket with the installation slot in the rear of the AP and insert the peg into the slot.
b. Slide down the AP so that it sits securely on the peg.
c. Fasten the M3 × 4 screw on the side panel of the AP.

Powering the AP

You can supply power to the AP by using a local power source or through 802.3af/802.at PoE as required. Before powering the AP, make sure the local power source or the power sourcing equipment (PSE) is reliably grounded.

Connecting a PoE power source

To power the AP through PoE, use an Ethernet cable to connect an Ethernet port on a PoE switch to the uplink/PoE in port on the AP.
