Hardware Overview
Front Panel
LED Indicator
Blue On: Working normally/Initializing. For EAPs with dual-color LED: Normal power supply
Orange On: For EAPs with dual-color LED: Low power supply
Off: Working abnormally/Power off/LED is turned off.
Flash: • Flash twice: Initialization is complete.
• Flash quickly: The EAP is resetting, or the Omada Controller is locating the device*.
• Flash once per second: The EAP is upgrading.
• Sustained on with brief off: The EAP is in the isolated state.
* When the Locate feature is activated in the Omada Controller, the LED will flash quickly for 10 minutes to help
you locate and identify the device. You can disable this feature manually to stop the device from flashing.
Rear Panel
Common rear panels:
RESET
With the device powered on, press and hold the button for about 5 seconds until the LED flashes quickly,
then release the button. The device will restore its factory settings.
Ethernet Port: ETH (PoE)
Connect to a gateway/router or a switch to transmit data, or to a PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment), such as a
PoE switch, for both data transmission and Power over Ethernet (PoE) through Ethernet cable.
Notes:
1. For EAPs with 10Gbps port, if you use a Cat 5E cable, the 10Gbps link of the Ethernet port is less than 55m. To achieve a
longer transmission distance, use a shielded Cat 6A cable.
2. For ultra-slim products with limited space for Ethernet ports, Cat 7 and Cat 8 network cables may be incompatible due to the
lack of a standard buckle design.
Power Port
Connect to a standard electrical wall outlet via a power adapter to power the EAP.
Note: Power adapter is not included in the package contents of certain models. For details, refer to the product specifications or
datasheet. For power supply specifications, refer to the product label.
