Chapter 2 – Installation
This chapter describes how to install Wi-Fi "Hot-Spot in a Box" Access Point. The hardware and
software installation instructions are provided here.

Hardware Installation

Before you connect the Access Point, decide where to place it.
Determinate the best location of the Wi-Fi Access Point, keeping in mind the following considerations:
•
The length of the Ethernet cable that connects the Access Point to the network must not exceed 100 meters.
•
The power source must be next to the installation place.
•
Try to place the Access Point in a dry, clean location as far from the ground as possible, such
as on top of a desk or bookcase, keeping clear of metal obstructions.
•
Try to place the Access Point away from transformers, heavy-duty motors, fluorescent lights,
microwave ovens, refrigerators, or other equipment that could cause radio signal interference.
•
Try to centrally locate the Access Point to provide the best coverage of the area.

Attaching the Access Point to the Wall

1. Place the Access Point in the desired location. Use the wall mounting assembly kit available with
P-360 Access Point. Follow the instructions:
•
Attach the wall mounting clamp to the wall with the spring latch to the upper side using the
four enclosed screws.
•
Connect the rear side of the Access Point to the mounting plate:

•
Move the housing slightly upwards until the spring latch is locked in place. The P-320
Operator Access Point is now securely mounted onto the wall and can not be removed
without special tools.
2. Insert the twisted pair LAN cable to a Power-over-Ethernet socket. At least the power LED and
the LAN link LED should light up.
