Insert the tabs on the table stand into the slots on the side of the AP, as shown in the illustration. Align the cable routing cut out toward the upper part of the stand. To lock the stand to the AP, slide the stand back and the AP forward, as shown here: Place the AP and table stand on the table.
Connect the Ethernet cable for power and network connection to the LAN port on the back of the AP. Ceiling Mounting To install your AP on the Ceiling, use the ceiling bracket kit that comes with the device. Follow these steps: Attach the metal slider to the back of the AP using the two small screws.

Connect the LAN cable from a switch to the Switch port on the PoE injector. Connect a LAN cable from the Ethernet port on the AP to the other LAN port on the PoE injector. Plug the PoE injector into a properly grounded electric outlet. See the illustration.
Checking the LED Indicators When the AP is connected to power, LEDs indicate activity as follows: Indicator Color State Description No power LED 1 Failure of CPU or system Amber (Power/ System initiation or reset (software Blinking System) self- testing and loading) Green Powered on and ready for operation Radio disabled...
You can remotely manage and maintain the AP through Telnet. Configure the AP to enable open-system authentication mode, with the • SSID being H3C. Log into the AP To Log into the AP after you determine its IP address, follows these steps: Connect the AP and PC, and ensure that the PC and AP can communicate with each other properly.
Converting your Managed AP (FIT) to a Stand-alone AP (FAT) If you plan to run this AP in stand-alone mode, without a wireless controller, go to the web page at http://www.h3c.com to get the FAT firmware and instructions. Converting your Stand-alone AP (FAT) to a...
