Configuring Ap Channel Settings - Extreme Networks Extreme Wireless WSAP3825i Installation Manual

The WS-AP3825 has both a LAN and a Console port. Refer to Figure 1-1 on page 1-2 for the location of
these ports.
During administration and maintenance through the LAN or Console, the AP must have a power
connection through either an Ethernet PoE cable or a DC power supply.
Power Connections
The AP can be powered in one of the following ways:
•
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
Power is provided through the RJ45 Ethernet port (LAN port) on the top of the AP. This is the
preferred method of powering the AP on ceiling and high wall installations.
•
Power by external power supply
Where a PoE-capable Ethernet connection is unavailable or impractical, an external 12V DC power
supply may be ordered separately to power the AP from a standard AC wall outlet.
Connecting an External DC Power Supply to the WS-AP3825
There are no wall mounts for the 12V DC power supplies. To connect a power supply to the AP for
everyday operation, mount the AP and plug the power supply in to the DC-IN port (callout 3 in
on page 8 and Figure 2
maintenance, you will still need to get power to it during the maintenance from a DC power supply or
PoE LAN connector.

Configuring AP Channel Settings

The WS-AP3825e must be installed by a professional installer. Before starting the installation, the
installer needs to determine/configure the following:
•
Determine the Antenna Model
•
Configuring Radio RF Port
•
Configuring Radio Channel
•
Configuring Radio Transmit (Tx) Power
Determine the Antenna Model
The professional installer needs to determine antenna models and the number of antenna ports for that
model. The number of ports can be determined from visual inspection of the antenna or from the
antenna model name as follows:
•
If the antenna model name contains a T or X (for example PRO-AO-xTxxxxx or AO-xXxxxxx), it is a
triple port antenna.
•
If the antenna model name contains a D (for example PRO-AO-xDxxxxx), it is a dual port antenna.
•
If the antenna model name contains an S (for example PRO-AO-xSxxxxx), it is a single port antenna.
