Hardware Installation Installation Instructions An AP-8533 Access Point mounts either on a wall (with M 3.5 x 0.6 x 23 MM pan head screws and mounting bracket or equivalent) or on a suspended ceiling T-bar. To prepare for the installation: 1 Match the part number on the purchase order with the part numbers in the packing list and on the case of the Access Point.
Access Point. Power Injector System An AP-8533 Access Point can receive power via an Ethernet cable connected to the GE1/ POE (LAN) port. When users purchase a WLAN solution, they often need to place Access Points in obscure locations.
Page 13
However, using the wrong solution (including a POE system used on a legacy Access Point) could either limit functionality or severely damage the Access Point and void the product warranty. A separate Power Injector is required for each AP-8533 Access Point comprising the network. AP-8533 Access Point Installation Guide...
