2.
If you are not using the Harmony Power System and an AP Power Over LAN
Module to supply power to the Access Point, connect the 10Base-T crossover
adapter, included with the product, to the 10Base-T port located on the back panel
of the Access Point.
Note:
Do not use the 10Base-T crossover adapter with the AP Power Over LAN
Module. The AP Power Over LAN Module ships with a 6-inch crossover
cable that connects directly to the Access Point's Ethernet port.
3.
Determine the best location for the Harmony OpenAir Access Point. Keep in
mind the following considerations:
The length of the Ethernet cable that connects the Access Point to the network
must not exceed 100 meters.
Try to place the Access Point on a flat, sturdy surface as far from the ground
as possible, such as on top of a desk or bookcase, keeping clear of metal
obstructions and away from direct sunlight.
Try to centrally locate the Access Point and its antenna so that it will provide
coverage to all of the mobile devices in the area.
If you are not using the Harmony Power System to supply power to the Access
Point, the distance between the Access Point and a power outlet cannot exceed
the length of the power adapter's cable.
You can install the Access Point and the AP Controller on different IP subnets.
Refer to the Harmony Access Point Controller Model 7560 User's Guide for
details.
4.
Place the Access Point in the desired location. The Access Point is designed to
sit on a desktop but it also includes four pre-threaded holes for mounting. Refer
to the section entitled "Mounting Option" later in this chapter for details.
5.
Attach one end of an Ethernet cable to the Access Point and attach the other end
to the 10Base-T port of a network hub, switch, router, or patch panel.
