connected to the ethernet port.

Grounding Point

Always remember to protect your W-IAP175 by installing grounding lines. The ground connection must be
complete before connecting power to the W-IAP175 enclosure. Ensure that the resistance is less than 5 ohm
between the ground termination point and the grounding tier.
W-IAP175P LED Status Indicators
The W-IAP175 include visual indicators for power, link, and radio status. Additionally, each radio has a four-LED
array that indicates received signal strength (RSSI).
NOTE: The RSSI LED indicators represent varying degrees in the RSSI level. The absence of a signal is indicated by no LED
response, and full signal strength is indicated when all four LEDs are active and lit.
