1 About this Guide
This guide provides instructions on how to install and configure your Cisco Aironet 1815T
OfficeExtend access points. This guide also provides mounting instructions and limited
troubleshooting procedures.
The Aironet 1815T access point is referred to as access point or AP in this document.
2 About the Access Point
The Cisco Aironet 1815T OfficeExtend access point is an 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac (Wave 2) access point,
with internal antennas. You can place the access point horizontally on a desk. The AP supports
2.4 GHz 2x2 802.11b/g/n MU-MIMO and 5 GHz 2x2 802.11 a/n/ac (Wave 2) MU-MIMO
applications simultaneously.
The 1815T access point offers a highly secure enterprise wireless and wired connection to the home,
micro-branch or other types of remote sites. This access point extends the corporate network to
teleworkers, to mobile workers, or to micro-sites.
The access point connects to the home or site broadband Internet access and establishes a highly secure
tunnel to the corporate network. This tunnel allows remote employees access to data, voice, video, and
cloud services for a mobility experience consistent with that at the corporate office. The Cisco Aironet
1815T access points support secure corporate data access and personal connectivity for teleworkers’
home devices with segmented home traffic.

•Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) connection between the access point and the
controller.
•The AP supports the following hardware external interfaces:
–
Three 10/100/1000BASE-T ports (local Ethernet ports), one of which also serves as a PoE-Out
port (PSE-LAN1 port).
The PoE-Out port provides 802.3af Class 0 (15.4W) power.
–
One USB 2.0 port
–
DC power connector, for powering the AP using AIR-PWR-D=.
–
Mode button. For information on how to use the Mode button, see “Using the Mode Button”
section on page 12.
–
One multi-color LED status indicator. See the “Checking the Access Point Status LED” section
on page 10 for information on the colors of the LED status indicator.
•Two integrated 2.4GHz/5GHz dual-band antennas located on the sides of the access point under
the top housing. Peak antenna gain is approximately 2 dBi and 4 dBi in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
bands respectively.

3 Safety Instructions
Translated versions of the following safety warnings are provided in the translated safety warnings
document that is shipped with your access point. The translated warnings are also in the Translated
Safety Warnings for Cisco Aironet Access Points, which is available on Cisco.com.
Warning
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This warning symbol means danger. You are in a situation that could cause bodily injury.
Before you work on any equipment, be aware of the hazards involved with electrical
circuitry and be familiar with standard practices for preventing accidents. Use the
statement number provided at the end of each warning to locate its translation in the
translated safety warnings that accompanied this device.
Statement 1071
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Warning
Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to its power source.
Statement 1004
Warning
Installation of the equipment must comply with local and national electrical codes.
Statement 1074
Warning
This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent)
protection. Ensure that the protective device is rated not greater than:
20A.
Statement 1005
Warning
Do not operate your wireless network device near unshielded blasting caps or in an
explosive environment unless the device has been modified to be especially qualified for
such use.
Statement 245B
Caution This product and all interconnected equipment must be installed indoors within the same
building, including the associated LAN connections as defined by Environment A of the
IEEE 802.3af/at Standard.

Note Use only with listed Information Technology Equipment (ITE) equipment. For more
information on ITE equipment, refer to article 645 of the latest National Electrical Code
(NEC).
4 Unpacking the AP
To unpack the access point, follow these steps:
Step 1 Unpack and remove the access point and the mounting accessories, from the shipping box.
Step 2 Return any packing material to the shipping container and save it for future use.
Step 3 Verify that you have received the items listed below. If any item is missing or damaged, contact
your Cisco representative or reseller for instructions.
–

PSE / LAN port 1.
This port provides 802.3af Power Sourcing
Equipment (PSE) PoE-Out power on the
LAN 1 Ethernet interface. When powered by
AIR-PWR-C/D= the PoE-Out power is
802.3af Class 0 (15.4W). 7

4LAN port 2. 8Mode button.
Note A physical security kit AIR-SEC-50=, which is sold separately, includes RJ-45 block-out plugs
and two unlock keys using which you can restrict physical access to the Ethernet ports.
Note All the three LAN ports support Auto-MDIX. The interface automatically detects the required
cable connection type (straight through or crossover) and configures the connection
appropriately.

6 Mounting and Powering the Access Point
The access point can be placed/mounted in a horizontal position, on a horizontal surface such as a
table.
To ensure the best RF coverage for your access point, place your access point in an area as close to the
wireless clients as possible and practical to do so. If the Internet source or gateway router is in a remote
area, position your access point away from metal obstructions.
Areas to avoid or places that may result in reduced range or performance are as follows.
•In a basement of a multi-story home, as the signals must penetrate many walls.
•Near large obstructions that can block the radio signals. Avoid areas like metal cabinets or
refrigerators.
•On the floor under a metal desk or other dense or conductive objects.
The AP is powered using 44 to 57 VDC power via the VDC port, using Cisco Power Adapter
AIR-PWR-D=. The PoE-Out port provides 802.3af Class 0 (15.4W) power.

8 Checking the Access Point Status LED
The location of the access point status LED is shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2. For privacy, the status
LED is automatically turned off when the access point joins a controller.
Note Regarding LED status colors, it is expected that there will be small variations in color intensity
and hue from unit to unit. This is within the normal range of the LED manufacturer’s
specifications and is not a defect.
The access point status LED indicates various conditions and are described in Table 1.
