Chapter 1 7200 Controller The Aruba 7200 Series of controllers consists of three enterprise-class, wireless LAN controllers. These controllers connect, control, and intelligently integrate wireless Access Points (APs) and Air Monitors (AMs) into a wired LAN system. Models The 7200 series includes three models that provide varying levels of functionality. Table 4 Aruba 7200 Series Controller Models Number of APs Minimum Supported...
Figure 1 Front Panel of the 7200 Dual-Media Ports The 7200 is equipped with 2 sets of dual-media ports (ports 0 and 1). These ports can utilize either the 1000BASE-X or 10/100/1000BASE-T connections provided. However, the 1000BASE-X fiber connection has priority over the 10/100/1000BASE-T copper connection. If a link is detected on the 1000BASE-X interface, the 10/100/1000BASE-T connection will be disabled.

Console Port A serial console port is provided for connection to a terminal, allowing for direct local management. The port’s RJ-45 female connector accepts an RS-232 serial cable with a male connector. Figure 4 Serial Console Port Pin-Out Serial RJ-45 Female...
Expansion Slot The expansion slot is reserved for future use. Rear Panel The rear panel of the Aruba 7200 controller consists of the following components: Two power supply slots One fan tray slot Grounding point Figure 6 Rear Panel Fan Tray The 7200 is equipped with a field-replaceable, hot-swappable fan tray.
Hot Swapping Hot swapping allows you to replace a failed fan tray, making it unnecessary to shut down the 7200 during the replacement procedure. Figure 7 Fan Tray Table 16 Fan Tray Components Callout Component Description Left Latch Used to secure the left side of the fan tray to the chassis. Right Latch Used to secure the right side of the fan tray to the chassis.
Power Supply Never insert or remove a power supply while the power cord is connected. Verify that cord has been disconnected from the power supply before installation or removal. The Aruba 7200-series Power Supply adapts electrical power for use with the 7200. The chassis has two slots that can hold individual power supplies to support load sharing, redundancy, and fault tolerance.

Chapter 2 Installation Installation of the device should be performed by a trained installation professional. This chapter describes how to install an Aruba 7200 controller using the many mounting options available. The 7200 ships with an accessory kit that includes the equipment needed to install the controller in standard, two-point 19-inch telco rack.
Installation or removal of the chassis or any module must be performed in a static-free environment. The proper use of anti-static body straps and mats is strongly recommended. Modules must be kept in anti-static packaging when not installed in the chassis. ...
Installation Steps To install an Aruba 7200 controller into a two-point 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack system: 1. Place a rack mount bracket over the mounting holes on one side of the controller (see Figure 11). 2. Secure the bracket to the controller using four M4 x 8mm phillips flat head screws and a suitable screwdriver.
Figure 12 Rack Mount Installation 5. Leave a minimum of four inches (10cm) of space on the left and right side of the unit for proper air flow and ventilation. See Figure 8 on page 18 for more information about the 7200’s airflow requirements.
2. Lift the power cord retaining clip so it is not blocking the AC power connector. 3. Insert the coupler end of the AC power cord into the AC power connector on the power supply module. 4. Lower the power cord retaining clip over the AC power cord. The 7200 should now be receiving power.

Installing and Removing a Power Supply Never insert or remove a power supply while the power cord is connected. Verify that cord has been disconnected from the power supply before installation or removal. Use standard ESD precautions when installing or removing a power supply module. The power supply modules are hot-swappable.
Removing an AC Power Supply To remove a power supply from your 7200: 1. Lift the power cord retaining clip from the power cord. 2. Remove the power cable connected to the power supply module. 3. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, loosen the hinged captive screw on the front of the power supply module.
c. Secure the ring lug of the negative (-) DC power source cable to the -VE terminal on the PSU- 350-DC. d. Tighten each screw on the PSU-350-DC terminals until snug using a Phillips-head screwdriver. Figure 16 Connecting Power Cables T E M P + V E O U T...
