Before You Begin

This installation guide provides basic instructions

for installing the DAP-3712 on your network.

The device should be ensured that systems

employing high gain directional antennas

are used exclusively for ﬁxed, point-to-point

operations. For additional information about

how to use the access point, please see the

User Manual from the D-Link support website.

4. Connect the adjustment kit to the base of

the DAP-3712 by pressing it in until it clicks

and locks in place. Use the adjustment

kit to position the antenna at the desired

angle

Preparation before Installation

Before installing the DAP-3712, check the

distance between the two sides and ensure

that they are within wireless signal range of

each other. It may be helpful to use a Graphic

Information System (GIS) program such as

Google Earth to check for obstructions between

the two sites. If there is an obstruction, it may

help to install the DAP-3712 as high as possible

to prevent the signal from being blocked.

Installation

Assembling the Access Point

1. Assemble the dish of the DAP-3712 by

sliding the two halves together until they

lock in place.

Figure 3: Assembling the Dish

2. Connect the antenna and base through

the hole in the center of the dish.

Figure 4: Attaching the Antenna

3. Thread a standard RJ-45 Ethernet cable

through the cover for the PoE port on

the underside of the DAP-3712. Insert the

cable into the PoE port, then attach the

cover to the device.

Note: Ensure that both devices have the same

model number and are running the same

firmware version. The radiation pattern and

wireless protocol of the DAP-3712 is designed

for high-performance bridge connectivity. Using

diﬀerent models or models with mismatched

ﬁrmware versions may cause problems, such

as performance degradation or a reduction in

coverage area.

Powering the Access Point

To power the DAP-3712, use a standard Ethernet

cable to connect the PoE port on the DAP-3712

to a 48 V PoE injector.

Cable Requirements

Use a CAT 5 cable with an even sheath. The

Ethernet ports on the DAP-3712 access point

cannot accept a CAT 5 cable that has an uneven

sheath; the RJ-45 connector on the cable will

not fit properly into the receptacle on the

access point.

Conguring the First DAP-3712 in

Access Point Mode

1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the LAN

port on the DAP-3712 to the PoE Out port

on the PoE injector. Using another cable,

attach the PoE injector to your switch or

management computer.

Figure 8: Connecting the DAP-3712

2. Ensure the computer is conﬁgured with

the static IP address 192.168.0.2 and a

subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.

3. Launchawebbrowser.Enter192.168.0.50

5. Follow the Setup Wizard's instructions

to conﬁgure the device in Access Point

Mode. Refer to Figure 9: Using the Setup

Wizard for details.

Conguring the Second DAP-3712

in Client Mode

1. Follow steps 1-4 of the instructions above

to power on the device. Launch the Setup

Wizard to conﬁgure the device in Client

Mode.

2. T o avoid an IP address conﬂict, change

the IPv4 address so that it is different

from the ﬁrst DAP-3712's IP address (for

instance, by changing it to 192.168.0.51,

as in the following screenshot).

Figure 10: Changing the IP Address

3. On step four of the Setup Wizard

(Wireless), select Client from the drop-

down list. Enter the same SSID and key

that you entered when conﬁguring the

ﬁrst device.

Figure 11: Conguring Client Mode

4. To confirm that wireless connectivity

between the two devices is conﬁgured

correctly, navigate to the Status page and

check the information under Associated

Stations (shown below).

Installation Recommendations

If you plan to install the DAP-3712 on a pole,

orient the front of the access point toward the

intended coverage area. The radio antenna

transmits through the front of the access point

but not through the reverse side (where the

bracket is).

6Quick Installation Guide

ENGLISH

Be sure to install the device at a height that

ensures that the alignment between the

devices is visible and there is no obstruction

in the middle.

Checking the Signal Strength

Before ﬁxing the device in place, slowly pan the

DAP-3712 from side to side and check the LED

indicator to ﬁnd the position where the signal

is strongest.

Mounting on a Pole

1. Hold the DAP-3712 against the pole in the

desired position.

Figure 13: Mounting the Device

2. Thread the metal mounting tie through

the hole on the base of the DAP-3712 and

and wrap it around the pole. Fasten the

tie to secure the device against the pole.
