Converting AP-4131 Access Points to RF

You can convert the Symbol AP-4131 model access point to RF Ports for use with the WS5000. The port

conversion enables existing customers to utilize an existing Symbol wireless infrastructure with the WS5000

Series Switch.

A converted AP-4131 is one of the many different types of AP's that can be adopted, configured and monitored

by WS5000. After the conversion, the AP-4131 becomes a thin AP responsible for receiving and transmitting

wireless data. All other functionality (such as 802.11 management, security, and packet switching) is

performed by the switch.

The WS5000 CDROM contains an installation package with new firmware image files for AP-4131:

• ap-4131.bin.img

• ap-4131-revert.bin.img

The WS5000 CDROM also includes the following file used for the initial AP-4131 port conversion:
