Installation and Configuration

ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP210

 To deploy the access point:

1. Disconnect the access point from the computer you used to configure it, and put the

access point where it will be deployed.

The best location is elevated, such as on a wall or ceiling or on the top of a cubicle, at the

center of your wireless coverage area, and within line of sight of all the mobile devices.

2. Connect an Ethernet cable from your access point to a LAN port on your router, switch, or

hub.

3. If you are not using PoE, connect the power adapter to the wireless access point, and plug

the power adapter into a power outlet. The Power and LAN LEDs should be on, and the

WLAN LED should blink.

Wall Mount Kit (Optional)

Before mounting the access point in a high location, first set up and test the access point to

verify wireless network connectivity See Set Up and Test Basic Wireless Connectivity on

page 15.

 To install the access point mounting brackets:

1. Disconnect the access point and position it where it will be deployed. The best location

is elevated, such as on a wall or ceiling or the top of a cubicle, at the center of your

wireless coverage area, and within line of sight of all the mobile devices.

2. Use the paper template provided to determine the location for the mounting holes. Drill holes

3/8 inches (~ 9 mm) and 13/16 in. (~20 mm) deep. The holes should be 10 1/4 in. ( 26 cm)

apart, as shown in (A). Then tap in the anchors as shown in (B).

3. The tabs at the center of each bracket hook into the center vent slots on the bottom of the

access point. The tabs on the ends of the brackets hook into the corner vent slots on the top

of the access point. Hook the center tabs of one bracket in first. Then gently snap the tabs

at the ends of the bracket into the top vents as shown in (C). Repeat for the second bracket.

4. Attach the brackets to the anchors using the screws from the mounting kit as shown in (D).

5. Connect an Ethernet cable from your access point to a LAN port on your router, switch, or

hub. If power is not provided by PoE, connect the power adapter to the wireless access

point and plug the power adapter into a power outlet. The Power, LAN, and WLAN LEDs

should light up.
