Product overview

The H3C WA2610i-GN Access Point has integrated antennas, and also supports external antennas. The

WA2610i-GN can serve as a fit AP to cooperate with wireless switches or access controllers to provide

wireless access for WLAN users. All configuration tasks are configured on the wireless switches or access

controllers. The WA2610i-GN can also operate as a fat AP to provide wireless access for WLAN users.

Preparing for installation

Safety recommendations

ARNING!

Only qualified personnel can install and remove a WA2610i-GN and its accessories. You must read all

safety instructions supplied with the access points before installation and operation.

To avoid possible bodily injury and equipment damage, read the following safety recommendations

before you install a WA2610i-GN. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible

hazardous condition.

•Take adequate safety measures to avoid bodily injury and access point damage.

•Make sure that the ground is dry and flat and anti-slip measures are in place.

•Keep the chassis clean and dust-free.

•Do not place the access point in a moist area and avoid liquid surrounding the access point.

•Keep the chassis and installation tools away from walkways.

Accessories provided with the AP

The following accessories are provided with the AP:

MAC address label Wall anchor kit Console cable (provided with the

fat AP only)

T-rail holder mounting screw Hex-head bolt, washer, and nut

Wall-mounting bracket

Rubber feet

NOTE:

ntennas, power adapter, and power cable are user-supplied.

Installing the AP

CAUTION:

The WA2610i-GN is usually installed on a high position, such as a wall or ceiling, so the maintenance

personnel cannot log in from the console port to maintain and debug the AP. H3C recommends that you

in to the AP throu

h the console port to perform remote lo

in (Telnet or web lo

in) confi

uration, or

information about logging in to the AP, see “Logging in to the fat AP.”

Check before installation

Before you install an AP, check the following:

•Connect the power cord and connect the AP to the network. Check the LED status to make sure that

the AP can operate properly. For more information about AP LEDs, see “Appendix LEDs and ports.”

•Check that cabling has been completed.

•The WA2610i-GN supports 802.3af-compliant PoE. To achieve the best performance, H3C

recommends that you adopt GE connection to the power device.

•Record the MAC address and serial number of the AP (marked on the rear of the AP) for future use.

Determining the installation position

Determine the installation position by observing the following principles:

•Leave as few obstacles (such as wall) as possible between APs and clients.

•Install APs away from electronic devices (such as microwave ovens) that may generate radio

frequency (RF) noise.

•Install APs in a place where they will not hinder people’s daily work and life.

•Do not install APs in a place where water seeping, water soaking, and condensing occur. Prevent

water or moisture from entering the APs.

CAUTION:

If part of the power line is routed outdoors, use a power strip with lightning protection (user supplied) to

connect the power cord of the AP to the power line to protect the AP from being damaged by lightning

strikes.

Installing the AP

NOTE:

The WA2610i-GN has integrated antennas. When you install the AP, determine whether external

antennas (user-supplied) are needed. Installing external antennas is not covered in this document.

Mounting the AP on a table

ARNING!

Do not place the WA2610i-GN on any metal surface. Place it on a place where there are no obstacles

and good signal strength is available.

1. To mount the AP on a table, attach the rubber feet supplied with the AP to the rear of the AP.
