Figure 1 Installation flowchart

Check before installation

Before installing anAP, perform the following tasks:

•Connect the AP to the power supply and the network. Examine the LEDs to verify that the AP

can operate correctly. For more information about AP LEDs, see "Appendix LEDs and ports."

•Verify that cabling on the installation site has been completed.

•To ensure the PoE performance, use GE interfaces for PoE power supply as a best practice.

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

Determining the installation position

You can mount the AP to a wall or ceiling. Determine the installation position by observing the

following principles:

•Few obstacles such as wall and ceiling exist between AP and clients.

•The AP is far away from electronic devices (such as microwave oven) that may generate radio

frequency (RF) noise.
